UNION TICKET.
SECOND WARD UNION MEETING.

The Second Ward Union Club of Gold
Hill will hold their regular monthly meet
ing, at Armory Hall, this evening at half
past seven o'clock. Il is urgently neces-
sary that as many member shall be pres
ent as possible. The Union feeling must
be kept up, and there must be no tagging
whatever until after the November cleo
tons. In no way can it be so well done
as by frequent meetings and interchange
of ideas. The nominations Of Township,
County and State officers are yet to be
made, and it is Of the utmost Importance
to the Union party in this county that the
best and most popular men shall be placed
in nomination. We suggest, therefore,
that the Union men Of the Second Ward
come together this evening and talk the
matter over, and determine who are the
candidates for the various offices who will
be most acceptable to the Union party,
and recommend such to the delegates for
nomination. We are Of the opinion that
such a course Of proceedings would give
mutual satisfaction, promote harmony in
the party, and materially increase its
strength. We want the best and most
acceptable men put forward, and it ap.
pears to us that we would be more likely
to get them in this than any other way,
Let all who can attend and act in the mat.
ter as they may think best.
