The Eighteenth Ward Council of Political Reform
held meeting last evening at the Oriental Hail. in
Eighteenth street. large number OF persons who
feel interested IN the movement ana VINO think the
city would be benefited by reform In mu-
nicpal government were punctuaily in attendance.
Mr.. William II. Nelson, president Of the association
assumed the cnar, and In few well chosen terms
explained TO the audience the purport OF the meet
ing. ne said mat the real object Of the association
was by no means purely political one, hat one
that every taxpayer must feel interested in, as 1t
had for It's basis imnacuiacy IN municipal govern.

grace to a nation SO great and glorious as
our own: New YORK was clted example IN foreign
countries where monarcnies were In vogue aud
anything approaching 10 republicanlsm democ-
racy was almost universally decrIed. Mr. Nelson
PROCEEDED to explain taat the OBJECT Of
posed TO elect members to work up each
aud all OF the Jweltylour districts included In the
Eighteenth ward The agents OF the association
were not instructed TO canvass these wards IT was
not intended mat votes should De sought or
bought, either by fair words promises. Inc asso-
citation cared not whether IT enrolled In iis
ranks republicans or democrats, It's whole sole
Ject was reform. Besides this those members VINO
mad consented to act supervisors OF the districts
and were July cognlzan that the real work desired
OF them was not TO gain voters, but TO ascertain
which persons In the several districts assigned
them we're July entitled to vote.
The business OF Tie meeting was then proceeded
with. 1t consisted IN electlng officers to canvass
the various districts IN the Eighteenth ward and
showing, through the lips oil the CHAIRMAN and Al.
derman Falkner, who prominently participates in
the movement that the only chance they had to
obtain rights wnicn were due all good citizens was
by striving energeucaliy Tor tnat sweetest boon,
municipal reform.
