"if Mr. McDonough Intends to become a can didate for mayor, I should think lie would prefer to have the election of of ficials In the hands of his own admin istration. If the bill to place the election of city officials in the hands of the present council becomes a law, I shall conclude that Mr. McDonofigh does not Intend to become a candidate. Should the election of officers go over to the next council, the present offi cials will know that they will have to null off their coat* and get into the political game.

This statement has given new inter est to Hon Carlo# and hie followers. The Carliat movement began away beck In IMS. when King Ferdinand VII. nfter a troublesome reign,breathed his last. He left no male Issue, only an Infant daughter, Donna Isabella. The Salle law. In force since 1713, ex cluded females from the throne, and the crown should buve passed to the king's brother, Don Carlos. Just be fore his death the king issued a decree disinheriting his brother In favor of the infant daughter. A civil war fol lowed.

Don Carlos, the preseut, was born in 1848. His father was a brother of Charles VI and he hopes to lie Charles VII. Hl# mother was Mu.ie Teresa, Archduchess of Austriu.
