Civil Districts OF the county and the Ten Wards Of

SATURDAY, JUNE s. 1873,
vention.
The Executive Board cannot too earnestly impress
the party the necessity for vigilance harmony and
concert of action.
The public Offices are open alike to ALL and every
citizen has the right to resort to all honorable means
to secure his advancement to any position; civil,
the same time, it behooves a party that claims
the public confidence and that expects TO maintain
its ascendancy to put forward as its representatives
only its best men.
Never before there a stronger necessity i'm
of Shelby TO exhibit the utmost fairness in its action
and to defer to the popular Will in the selection of
lis nominees; ,'hether this will be done or not de-
ponds mainly upon the manner in which the Pri-
mary Elections are conducted.
II all good citizens and the substantial business
