DEMOCRAT MAY BE CHOSEN V. .1. Harry's Friends Claim He Has Finnish Support to Win, Wlill C. K. Toster Also Has Some Votes, PERSONAL MENTION. James Titters, of Fern Hill, is In the city. C. A. Paulsen, of Minneapolis, is in the city. M. E. Stewart, of Seattle, is at the Occident E. C. Alexander was over from Chi nook yesterday. George S. Taylor was down from Portland yesterday. G. C. Monroe and mother are regis tered at the Occident. . J. Douglas, of Warrenton, is spend ing Sunday in the city. Captain R. F. Gardiner was In the city yesterday from Fort Columbia. Mr. and Mrs. H. S. McGowan, of McGowan, are spending a few days in the city. Mrs. Fred Colbert, Mrs. Powell and Miss Belle Bucke, of Ilwaco, are vis iting In Astoria. J. S. Home, representing the Pionee Shirtwaist Company, of Portland, Is at the Nehalem house. United States Senator Fulton re turned home last night from a tour of southern Oregon counties. Lieutenant and Mrs. B. F. Kerfoot and Mrs. Turner, of Fort Columbia, were shopping in the city yesterday. J. S. Dellinger and W. W. Ride halgh will be passengers on the steamer Sue H. Elmore for Tillamook this morning. Dr. W. B. Hollingshead, a former pastor and now presiding elder, will occupy the pulpit of the Methodist Episcopal church tomorrow morning. Mrs. P. A. Kearney, who returned home Friday from an extended east- Who will be the next chief of the Astoria tire department? This question has betn askttd piany times during the past, few days,1 and there have been no definite answers. There are two avowed candidates for Chief Stockton's place W. ' JTtiarry and l E. Foster but whether or 'not one ot those aspirants will be selected Is problematical. Mr. Barry's friends claim he will have five of the eight votes tomorrow night Messrs. Balland, Nordstrom. Lebeck, Kaboth and Hansen. ., On the other hand. Mr. Foster's friends claim a majority for him. This was the sit uation as the partisans of the two can didates stated It last night. Hut the council Is made up at pres ent of five democrats and three" re publicans, and both Mr. Barry and Mr. Foster are reputed lifelong re publicans. Last night the name of Fred W. Wright, former councilman from the Third ward, was sprung as a likely man for the place, and the dem ocratic members of the council were urged to support him on political ) grounds. Just how Mr. Wright feels about the matter was not learned, but If his name Is placed before the coun ell he will doubtless receive substan tlal support. The effort for the election of Mr Wright Is due purely to an effort on the part of democrats to put one of their own faith in the position. These democrats claim he is well fitted for the place, having long been active In the department, and that the demo cratic members of the council will support him. It Is somewhat singu lar, but nevertheless quite true, that no democrats have petitioned for the place. Whenever there is any demo cratic patronage to dole out the dolers must hunt up men to accept the plums. "What is worth having is work ask ing for," members of the council de clared last evening, and on thin ground they seem inclined to support one of the republicans. The position pays 185 a month.
