Mr. Fitzgerald bus the same aspiration should Judge C'amerm be the lucky man. According to the rumored coalition be tween Mr. Moser and Judge v'ameron. by which Moser Is to run for the office and Cameron Is to bo his chief deputy, both splitting up the salaries equally, this apportionment of deputies would make Mr. Mnssrs list full, as It would give Judge Cameron the chief deputv shlp. and the other two remaining places to Mr. Upton and Mr. Hoys.
