ing could hardly have been selected. But
in saying so We do not mean thereby to
frame an apology fOE the small attendance
present. The Court House was about half
filed instead of being jammed, and that fact
is reProach to the zeal of a large number of
Union men in the city. This is now Wed :
nesday, and next Monday is the election.
Judging by the demonstration last night
there is great deal to be done if the Union
ticket is to be elected. Unless a different
feeling is awakened from that now visible
we will be beaten. There is no use in
Disgusting this fact. Unless the Union
men of the different wards are prepared to
take hold of the situation as it now stands
and make a success oft, thereis no assur-
auce that the result will be different from
last year.
We are glad to say that meetings were
announced last night for the 4th, 9Th and
9Th Wsrds:-for the former on tomorrow
Thursday evening and for the 5th and
9Th Saturday evening. Such announce.
ments look like business, and just here
we may as we'll understand that the for
tunes of the day are to be saved by the
individual work done in the wards at
these meetings and afterwards. The 4th
Ward saved the whole county last Febru-
airy, and if the same men will interest
themselves again to the same extent, the
charter election will be saved next Monday.
We most earnestly entreat the active
men in each ward to lose not an hour in
"organizing success" Unless they will
take the trouble, unless it seems to them a
work worthy to be done, we may make uu
our minds to defeat. We warn them O.
the appearance of things this much in ad,
vance. There is time to secure victory
if only the proper steps are taken. Th,
question is are there Union men enough
in the city who are uuselfsh enough to Sc
cure thoroughly loyal government b,
