A warm contest is scheduled for the primaries in the Thirty-second Assem- bly District. The effort of the Ruef in this southern belt of the city has been brought to a sudden halt and if he defeats his opponents it only after sanguinary conflict. ““ In an effort to name the Assembly- man from this district and the Sena- tor from the Nineteenth Senatorial District, composed of the Thirty-sec- ond and the Thirty-fifth Assembly dis- tricts, the organization has appointed a committee to select delegates from the State and the Legislative and Judicial conventions. It is claimed that in the appointment of the committee Ruef failed to confer with the voters of the district as to| their night, wishes. The result is that last under the leadership of Senator | Jelch, Supervisor Fred Bent and e Central Committeeman Joseph Armstrong, the opposition met in Maennerbund Hall, Protrero avenue, near Twenty-fourth street, and organ- | ized, taking the name of the Roosevelt Club of the Thirty-second Assembly District. Joseph Armstrong was elected presi- dent of the club, the other officers se- lected being as follows: First vice pres- ident, Fred Cosgrove; second vice president, Captain C. E. Douglass; third vice president, Thomas Cavan- treasurer, George W. Penning- ton; secretary, Hallie B. Davidson; sergeant-at-arms, Thomas Ryan. After the preliminary work had been disposed of, Senator Welch announced meeting. He said that outside influ- ! ences were reaching into the district | in an effort to control its political des- | tiny, and this without consulting the | | voters of the district. As he believed in home rule, he said, he thought the action to thwart the outside organiza- | tion and place a ticket of delegates in the field in opposition to that the or- ! maries. Mr. Welch’s address was warmly lp- ! plauded and‘upon motion a committee | of seventeen was appointed to select delegates to run in opposition to those ! named by the organization.
