Owing to the stormy weather there
was O limited attendance at the meet
ing held last evening by the First Ward
Democratic Club. In consequence the
work of naming a ticket for presenta-
ton at the Forthcoming primary
was postponed. James NJ. Carberry
was slated as delegate to the Sixth
District Democratic Freeholders' Con
vention, and William H. Wheeler as
delegate to the Democratic City Con-
vention.
Ex-Councilman William G. Farr, of
the Second ward, is working strenu-
ously to secure the Republican nomi-
nation for the Mayoralty.
School Trustee Andrew r. Donnell
is an a%spirant for the Democratic
nomination for Councilman in the
First ward.
The Democrats of the First ward
contemplate nominating Hugh H.
Mara, the clever and popular young
humorist, for School Trustee.
There is a strong probability that
an organization, to be known as
the Bayonne Citizens Temperance
League, will be formed early next
week, for the purpose of nominating
a candidate for the Mayoralty and
candidates for Councilman and School
Trustee in at least two of the five
wards.
A strong ticket has been slated by a
number of prominent Third ward
Democrats for presentation to the
party's Forthcoming primary in the
ward.
Ex-Freeholder and ex-Postmaster
Charles t. Mum is said to aspire for
the Republican nomination for the
Oouncilmanic honors of the First
ward.
A lively quadrangular fight for the
Councilmanic hOnors OF the Fourth
ward is developing. The aspirants
are Councilman Nicholas Carroll,
School Trustee John H. Donohoe and
Edward J. Clark, the liquor dealer, all
young Democrats; and Jacob W. Oil
yer, a veteran Republican. Columbia
Hook and Ladder Company, No. 3, of
Bergen Point, will divide its strength
in the race for the Councilmanic
honors of the Fourth ward between
MI. Donohoe and Mr.. Clark.
Edward J. Clark has published a
card denying that he is seeking an
election as Councilman in the Fourth
ward, in the interest of another
aspirant for the Office.
Democrats throughout the city are
canvassing a project to nominate
J. III. Wright, the popular orator of
Bayone Council, No. 695, Royal Ar
canum, for the Mayoralty.

Centre street, Pamrapo; Fourth

232 East Twenty-second street, Con-
stable Hook. The representation to
the City Convention entities the
First, Second and Third wards to
three delegates each, and the Fourth
and Fifth wards to two delegates each.
German citizens of the Second and
Fifth wards are DESTROYS that the ele-
ment they represent is recognized as a
factor by the Republicans when they
make their ward nominations.
Headquarters for the campaign have
been established in Nays Head Inn. at
Bergen Point, by the First Ward Dem
ocratic Club, which has been reorgan-
lied with the following officers :-Presi-

nell; secretary, Michael j. Corkey;
treasurer, Postmaster Thomas Brady;

Luby, Thomas Brady, Andrew r. Don

Board, Notwithstanding the fact that
the Fifth ward Democrats may not
give him a nomination.

of the Second ward, is not a candidate
