At to-morrow's election the republicans
of Fair Haven should get out and vote. In
the Twelfth ward it is not expected that a
miracle will be worked and that the repub
ican councilmanic ticket will be elected,
but the party is well organized and is like
ly to get out nearly the entire vote. John
Nolan, the ice man, has been nominated
for alderman by the democrats and, like
the New York ice man who ran for con-
gress, will probably be elected. The DEM
ocrstic candidates for the board of coun-
cilmen are Mr.. Joseph Donlan, A. K.
Brown and William Robinson. In the
Eleventh the republicans need to work
with vim or they will be beaten. This
ward has been getting more democratic
year after year, and now that such
detail of republicans are voting the
prohibition ticket republican success is
badly jeopardized. Still the republicans
can elect their alderman and councilmen if
they will make the effort. William E.
Morgan, superintendent Of the Consolidat-
ed road at Belle dock, is the nominee for
alderman He has served in that capacity
and will make an excellent official again
The last time he ran he was defeated by a
few republicans who did not vote. There

it is necessary that Morgan should be
elected, if the party gets eight aldermen;
thus emitting them to proper representa-
ton on the commissioners. The republi-
cans in the Fourteenth and Fifteenth
wards usually are pretty loyal to party,
and tomorrow they may be expected to
give good account Of themselves. The
voting places are as follows:
| Eleventh ward, corner of Exchange and Ferry
street; Twelfth ward, Quinnipiac rink, Grand
CINE house, East Grand avenue; Fifteenth ward,
165 Forbes avenue, near Four Corners As usual,
ing place in city town. Quinnipiac rick is the
banner voting place.
