TOES moleststion from their opponents. The eiec-
iioneerers for ticket in opposition to that supported
BY the Ward Committee instructed their friends to
assert tha, they did support CLARK election for Gov

too honest 70 state anything Of the kind, and replied
in the negative. Their votes were rejected on their
