Word in Reply to the Card Of the Judges Of
the seeond Ward.

MR Enron: A few words will answer this
card The proposition TO "request the judges
Of election to invite two gentlemen of each OF
the two parties TO be present at the counting
Of the votes" was made by Mr.. Houston, one
Of their own party, and Mr. Fitzpatrick, at
the suggestion Of his colleague, wrote out the
resolution 1t was passed by large MAORI
ty-Mr. Reed, OF the Second, Mr.. Clarke, of
the Sixth, and Mr.. Pearson, Of the Seventh
Wards, voting against it. Now, if these gen.
tlemen's honesty is impugned, it is by their
own friends; but this is all a miserable ex
cuse; ard If they, with the other judges in
the frat four wards, refuse the presence of one
OF their opponents at the counting of the bal
lots, then they give good cause for suspicion,
AID their opp nents are compelled Of nsces-
sity 70 ask tnsir friends to vote openly, so that
the tally may be kept outside as check on
tie judges. AN ALDERMAN.
