would have nothing to do with national poll

a. Democrats to its ranks. and carry on The
city campaign on q strictly nom -part tisan basis.
1t was also decided to take no part In the State
by the constitution Of tho association no
man who is a candidate for any office can be-
come member OF the association. Mr.. Par
erson and the o. her speakers admitted that
many Of the ieformers whom they elected to

they said they did not propose to give up the
fight for reform on that account. but to try
