The THIRD WARD REPUBLICAN, CLUB, per-
eeiye, has fallen into the same fatal error
which In many parts OF the country has not
alone brought down heavy Republican major
tiles, but 10 many places reduced the party to
an almost hopeless minority. This has been
the case in many towns and cities throughout
the North and West. The fact that = " ring "
or clique, had, by unfair means, brought about
the nomination Of a corrupt politician for
Governor OF California on the Republican
ticket against the wishes Of the great mass Of
the party, cost the Republicans that State.
II might as we'll be understood BY those who
do not appear to, or do not wish to comprehend
the fact that the great mass OF the Republican
yotors are frea-thinking and Independent
body OF men who will as fearlessly condemn
injustice and wrong 10 their own party as they
do In that OF their political opponents. Can
not Republicans learn lesson from their po-
litleal opponents In this city, who, instead Of
making their nominations by "committees,"
invite all friends of their party to come for
ward and cast their "ballots" for just such
candidates as they see at.
sm member Of q Republican ward club In
this city, but must confess that could never
sec the propriety or utility of any ward club
assuming unto Itself the prerogativo Of ap-
pointing committee OF half dozen men to
nominate IA ticketn for all the Republican
voters Of the ward. or course the fact that In
our clubs even delegates to city nominating
conventions are appointed by committees does
not escape the notice OF the public.
