1t was s o'clock when Chairman Dob.
bins called tho committee to order, and
there were present at that time Messrs.
Ulrich, Tracy, McKown, Wheat and
Vockler. Mr.. Dobbins opened the pro-
ceedings by stating the special object
for which the meeting had been called,
aud said that unless there were objec'
lions he would call on the representa-.
tiyes from the several wards in regular
order, No one offered any objections
and DR.. UlriCh was called upon TO name
the officers for tho First ward polls. He
presented his US printed above and II
was promptly confirmed, Mr.. Tracy, OF
the Second ward, then handed In his
list, While 1t was being read by Clerk
Elson, Mr.. II. L. Caldwell, the member
OF the committee from the Sixth ward,
put In an appearance and objected to the
names OF Daniel Schambra and Joseph
Green. He saidi was the desire Of the
Democratic party that the positionsthese
gentlemen were named for should be
filled by Pat Kennedy and j. u. Craw::
ford respectively. Just what portion OF
the Democratic party Mr.. Caldwell was
speaking for he did not indicate, and. no
one was sufficiently interested 10 asCer.
tain by questioning him. Mr.. Tracy's
nominations were confirmed.
Mr.. Caldwell then made inquiry as 10
who had been numed for the First ward,
and DR.. Ulrich's list, which had been
confirmed, was read again. Mr.. Cald.
well, consulting a small piece Of paper
which he had in his hand, said: "Well,
we don't want Youngi we've picked out
Mike Edwards for that place. He was
informed that tho venerable Michael
would have to be left out, as the names
had been confirmed.
The third ward was next in order.
Mr.. Dobbins said that in selecting his
list he had endeayored 10 secure men OF
standing and integrity, who would be &C.
ceptable to all. Mr.. Hall, the Democrat
he had chosen for commissioner, was
a man popular with all he had served
in Councillor several years, and had been
prominently mentioned by the Democ.
racy for other positions. Mr.. Dobbins
said no had not known that the Dem.
ocracy, or that part Of II Nr, Caldwell
was representing, had contemplated
naming any Of the election officers out.
side OF those In tue two wards repre-.
scented by Democrats In this committee,
but he felt sure that there could be no
objection to Mr.. Hall.
The Democratic canvasser he had
named, Mr., Holt, while be was an In
tense partisan, was m honest, upright
man, had been appointed 10 0 like posi-
ton by the late Democratic Board OF
County Commissioners, and he thought
there could be no more objection to
Mr., Holt than there was 10 Mr.. Hall.
Mr.. Caldwell said, ave don't want
Mr.. Hall, Dr.. George Baird is the one
we've selected for that place."
Mr.. Dobbins-',l'm sorry that did
not know Of that before, for ! consider
DR.. Baird Just as highly as | do Mr.. Hall

game OF the election officers appointed
