ment.
The democrats of the Twelfth ward met |
last evening and nominated tho following |
ward ticket: Alderman, Walter J. Connor;
councilmen, A. K. Brown, Henry O'Brlen
and Abraham McGinty. There IL . great
deal of dissatisfaction among the German
residents of this ward. owing to the fact
that the German element has been elimin-
ated from the ticket by the dropping of the
name of Conrad Helm, one of the present
councilmen, from the ticket.
The German element is powerful factor
in Twelfth ward democracy. and If the
present dissatisfaction is carried to the
polls the republican ticket in the ward will
have an excellent chance of election.
A meeting of the Third ward democratic
nominating committee will be held at 1913
Congress avenue at o'clock this evening,
for the purpose of nominating ward
ticket. 1t is probable that Patrick Moran,
the present alderman, will be renominated.
