Truell and Greenhalge Lead in Sixth District Contest
A lively political squall in the Sixth Councillor District centers on Truell seeking a third term, with Lowell wanting limits on third terms. Lawrence lacks a Lawrence candidate, prompting Republicans to link Councillorship to Greenhalge’s renomination and potentially oppose him in 1892. Tensions between Lowell and Lawrence loom as factions mobilize. Crapo backs Crapo for governor, listing ex-governors and notable figures for or against him. Allen supporters also mobilize with high-profile backers. Secretary Hayes of the Republican Club is away in the West and to return next week for regular hours at Washington Street HQ.
