Messrs J 1 Clements and S L
Gardner both aspirants for the nomina
tion as sheriff of Madison county at the
hands of tho republican party have
finally reached an agreement which it
is hoped will sottlo amicably what was
feared would bo a serious rupture in tho
republican ranks Both parlies realize
that to go to the county convention with
a split delegation meant tho probable
defeat of both for tlio nomination or iu
the event that either wore nominated
the antagonisms made while trying to
secure favorable delegates would react
at the election and make tho stucess of
tho nominee very doubtful Looking nt
it in this light it became very essential
that an agreement bo reached and that
it bo dono before tho Third ward caucus
last ovoning llenco yesterday after
noon the two gentlemen camo together
and again wont over tho situation tho
result of that conference being a
stipulation which recites that an agree
ment has been reached in the interest of
harmony and for tho purposo of insur
ing success in tho republican party
Under tho agreement which is made
subject to the ratification of tho repub
lican caucuses each of tho two candi
dates is to bo nllowed to select one half
of the delegates accredited to Norfolk
and after till tho delegates have boon
elected thoy will bo invited to moet in
caucus and ballot upon who shall be tho
Norfolk candidate for sheriff nnd that
when either of tho candidates shall ro
coivo 20 of tho 10 voteB which Norfolk
will have in tho county convention thou
it is the desire of theso candidates that
the one receiving the 20 votes shall havo
tho unanimous support of tho ontiro
delegation Tlio agreement also states
that of the delegates already elected
the five in the First ward shall be ac
credited to Clemments and tho three in
the Fourth ward to ranlner Tho
other two wards are divided on tho
basis of giving Gardner four iu the Sec
ond ward and five in the Third Clem
ments threo in the Second wnrd nnd
four in tho Third It is figured that tho
outsido precinct will break even al
though both agree not to try to influ
ence tho selection of delegates in that
caucus
The Third ward caucus ratified this
agreement between tho two candidates
at tho meeting last night and the same
proposition will be submitted to tho
Second wnrd caucus which convones to
morrow evening If the agreomont is
endorsed by that caucus then a mooting
of all tho delegates will bo held at tho
city hall Saturday evening to decide
who shall be the candidate There is
no specification as to what shall bo dono
in caso the delegates fail to agreo upon a
choice but as there is no desire on the
part of either candidate to go into tho
convention with only half his homo del
egation it is presumed some way will
bo providod out of tho difficulty in case
tho arrangement does solve the difficulty
as contemplated
Third Ward Catirufl
The caucus of Third ward republicans
at tho city hall last evening wns fairly
well attended The meeting was called
to order by Committeeman Burt Mapes
and the caucus was organized by the
election of Mr Mapes as chairman and
W N Huso as secretary
Motion prevailed that tho name of
J S McClary be forwarded to tho coun
ty jndgo with tho recommendation
that ho be selected as ono of tho judges
of the general election iu November
and the uamo of W H Lowe for ono of
tho clerks
Upon motion it was decided that the
primnry election to select judges to tho
couuty convention bo hold at tho
office of Salter As Son from 12 to 7 this
afternoon and that G B Salter be se
lected as judge of such election and
Clarence Salter as clerk
Previous to the selection of candidates
for delegates to the county convention
a statement was made through a repre
sentative by Messrs Clements aud
Gardner aspirants for nomination as
sheriff that they had come to an agree
ment between thomselves and asked
that the caucus ratify tho mime by allow
ing Clements to select four of the dele
gates from the Third ward to the coun
ty convention and Gardner five After
some discussion motion to that effect
prevailed and the two candidates re
tired and made up the list as follows
W N Huso M O Hazon Burt Mapes
M O Walker J B Barnes K A Bul
lock W II Bucholz G M Thompson
J S McClary On motion the persons
named were declared the nominees of
