SEVENTH WARD DEMoCRACY-The Central
Democratic Club of the Seventh Ward met
last Thursday evening, pursuant to the adj
journment, to elect two delegates to the De-
mocratic Parish Committee. Notwithstanding
the heavy showers in the evening, and the
ominous threat of more from the dark, lower
ing clouds, the meeting was most respectable,
both in numbers and quality The club pro-
ceeded promptly to the business of the even
ing, and from the number of excellent candi-
dates nominated, elected by ballot Messrs. T.
Bailey Blanchard and p Maloche. The an
of the result was received with
loud applause, and thereupon the election Of
these gentlemen was made unanimous.
1t would be supertluous in us to say that
this is most commendable selection of two
gentlemen standing in the front ranks of So
cial, commercial and political circles. The
mention of their names should be sufficient
ling element now attending the primary meet
ings in the ward clubs. For both of these
gentlemen were present and accepted the re-
,ponsible positions rendered them.
We will venture but one remark in connec-
lion with the election of these gentlemen, and
hat is that their presence and active partici-
patton in the ward meetings in this hour OF
organization, should be a warning and an ex-
ample to many others who could and should be
present on these occasional and all important
ward meetings.
The club then adjourned to meet on We'd
lesday, the 9Th of August, unless sooner con-
,ened by the President.
