| TENTH WARD.
The Tenth Ward has two clubs, each
Claiming to be he mother club Of the
ward, one OF which John H. Bowen is
president, and one with Battle Payne as
president. On the fifteenth day of May,
1871, the regular mother club from the
last campaign adjourned, for an election
of officers, to the twenty. second of the
same month.
MIR. Battle Payne, unauthorized by the
old mother club or any other authority.
held an election on the seventeenth day
Of day Of May, and elected officers, while
the regular election for officers. according
to the cal with the regular roll of the
Tenth Ward, was held on the twenty Sec
ond of May, 1871, when John H. Bowen
was elected president and William H.
Burroughs. secretary. We, therefore,
recommend that the club OF which John
II. Bowen is president, which meets at
the corner of Fulson and vt. Mary streets,
be declared the regular mother club of
the Republican party in the Tenth Ward,
and that the election of delegates to the
State Republican Convention be held as

to be the regular Republican Mother
Club OF the Eleventh Ward

The Twelfth Ward has two clubs, each
Of which claims to be the mother club.
After examining the history and claims,
| OF each, We have come to the conclusion
that the club now presided over by Paul
Bruce has no claims to entitle it to be
designated the mother club We are sat
isfied that the club of which ID. c. Wood
ruffs is president. and John Moylan is
secretary. is the regular Republican No
ther Club of the Twelfth Ward. It meets
on Marsngo, near Magazine street, and
we recommend that it be SO declared and
recognized by the Parish Committee

son Brown is president. This club IN eets
in RobinsOns church two squares above

statements and evidence presented to us,

this to be the regular Republican Mother
