WARM WORDS FOR SMITH.
Sixth Ward Democrats Make
Some Endorsements

Sixth Ward Democrats Make
Some Endorsement
The Sixth Ward Flats Robert A.
Smith club met last night at Its hall OH
Fairfield and Robinson streets.
A motion to indorse Robert Hare for
alderman was carried unanimously. Mr..
Hare responded with few well-timed
remarks. He appreciated the friend
ship of the people of the flats who had
stood by him in the last campaign.
when he carried every precinct in the
fiat, despite the vituperation of the op-
position. He pledged himself 10 sup
port whoever woLld be the nominee for
the office after tie convention adj
journed. Mr.. Hare spoke warm words
for William Dawson Jr.. and hoped the
club would indOrse him for the mayor
atty, provided Robert A. Smith could
not be prevailed upon TO re-enter the
campaign.
A motion declaring Mr.. Smith as the
clubs first choice and Mr.. Dawson as
candidate if Mr.. Smith decided to abide
by his resignation passed with unani
nous vote.
MIR. Hare continued his remarks, say
ing that had MIR. Cullen been the friend
Of the laborng men he could be the
choice OF the Democratic party. [Cries
of never, never. But as Mr.. Cullen
had been close friend of the people of
st. Anthony hill he could not secure the
votes. His vote on the eight-hour ques-
ton and the reduction of wages were
Oh record where everybody could see 1t.
AS a result he was out of the question
as candidate Of the party.
Comparing the administrations of
Smith and Wright. the speaker said
that Mr.. Smith was not yet dead. but
still lived in the hearts of all loyal
Democrats. 1t was matter of regret
that he had not another opportunity to
compare the two administrations and
measure swords with his former antag-
onist. He would get larger majority
this year than ever before.
Mr.. Hare gave a back-handed blow at
Townley and his remarks against
Robert A. Smith. which was loudly ap-
plauded by the. meeting.
Mr.. Hahley followed, and gave it as
his opinion that the affections of the
people were Sill with Mr. SnlCn, ana
he hoped nc could be prevailed upon to
make the race. But if that could not be
done. the clubs second choice, Mr..
Dawson, was as good as could be found
in the city. He suggested that the
members of the convention ascertain
by delegation If Mr.Smith was positive
in his declination. Ii that should be
found the case, then Democrats should
rally around William Dawson Jr.. who
would do credit to his father as well as
Mr.. Smith, who was his friend.
&. }. Meilicke made brief address
and urged the club to support j. II.
Kerler for the city treasury. He said
Mr.. Kerker deserved the place for many
reasons.
A motion to indorse Mr.. Kerker car
ried unanimously amid loud applause.
Judge Macarthur moved to indorSe
James Melady for the assembly, land this
also went through ithOut a dissenting
vote.
William A. Van Slyke was the choice
of the Sixth warders for the office of
comptroller; Joseph Smith for justice
OF the peace, and Tim Sweeney for
constable. This closed the indorse-
ments. all of which were in harmony
with the action Of the other clubs in the
ward.

REPUBLICAN "HARMoNY."
1t RACES With Big H in the
Third Ward.


There is blood on the face OF the
moon. The Republican clans i'm the
Third ward were in battle array last
night at 462 Broadway, with their
weapons turned against themselves.
The RepublicaniSm of one club having
membership of over two hundred is
challenged. They are not only de-
prived of representation on the delega-
ton to the city convention, as proposed
to the voters at the primaries, and on
the board of judges, but it is proposed
to challenge their votes at the primaries,
whereat the y declare war, and demand
not only representation on the board of
judges, but an additional primary pre-
cinct, to be located at the sixth polling
precinct booth on Sibley street between
Sixth and Seventh. A petition signed
by the membership of the club was
ordered presented to the city committee
by committee consisting of Messrs.
Hanly. Harris, Moeller. Benser, Char
ters and Summons.
Hanly called up the matter and stated
that the club was defrauded OF repre-
SentatiOn because LOwenstein and Rel
chardt had represented TO the city
committee that their club was Demo
cratic. This he emphatically denied,
insisting that no man had either the
right or reason to question their Re-
publicanism; that the only man who
had ever questioned his RepubIicanism
was the man who was responsible for
nominating dead man for alderman in
that ward, and be said that there would
be war, and with swords and to the hilt,
so to speak, If they did not receive fair
treatment. He called Oh Harris to speak
for the city committee and state why
they had been turned down.
Harris said Reichardt told the COM
mittee they were Democrats. and he
requested that ii there were any Demo-
Gratis III the meeting that they show
their hands that they stand up. He
then demanded that any present who
did not intend to support the Republican
ticket should stand. And further. that
j it any of the men were present who
questioned the Republieamism of the
cub that they should rise. But there
was no response to any of these propo.
sltlonS. Or membership of 2OS about
125 were present, and they crowded
around the table to sign the protest and

mayor, while the Relchardt- -Lowenstein
faction is for Doran.
The Reichardt- Lowenstein factions
met at 254 East Seventh street and
nominated the following list of delegates
to the city convention: Robert Kirkland,
j. G. Reichardt, George Lamb, Sam
Morrison. Andrew Holm, Nels Sandell,
Henry Boyce, Sam Lowenstein and l..
j. Templeton. Of these Templeton is a
candidate for asSemblyman.
Before Hanley precipItated the racket
the meeting was addressed by James
Schroll, Mr. Brewster, w. Mcdonald,
Frank x. Dolenty, F. A. johnson and
Mr.. Strahne. The speeches were on
usual Republican lines. aud all seemed
to relish Republican misrepresentation
Mcdonald said men had no right to en-
tertain wrong opinions and declare he
would not associate with good men if
they were Democrats. In the first
proposition he stands squarely with the

THE "CITIzENs" STILL AT 1T.
Not Entirely Happy With Cullen,
but Finishing Their Ticket


The citizens committee of fifty-fve.
or as many of them as have not divorced
their allegiances. met last night in the
New York Life building and considered
the report of the steering committee on
further candidates for municipal Of
fees. Names for candidates for council
were discussed, and, owing to divisions
of views, only portion of those recoU-
mended were made the choice of the in
quisitorial conclave. Those agreed
upon for assembly are. west of Wabasha
street, A. B. Hickman, Cary |. Warren.
Duncan c., Murray aud Ross Clark.
For the district east Of sWabasha street
only the name of Timothy Reardon was
agreed upon. For ward aldermen the
names of E. o. Z zimmerman for the
Second ward, and Henry j.. Gray for
Ninth ward were selected. The COM
mittee then adjourned until Monday
evening at the same place, at which
time the special COMMITTEES will make
further suggestions as to names for q
complete ticket. ~ eHe' A''-
1t seems that there have been some
dissensiOns in the inluisition, and con-
siderable of the talk last night was in
relation to the mistakes of the conclave
last Monday night. The fact that q. o.
Cullen, the chief fag-bearer of the COM
mttee. has declined to take the Demo-
cratic nomination. has dampened The
ardor of the members and caused con-
siderable comment. Chairman Lang
ford announced at the close Of the Sc
cret session that thirty-five names of the
committeeman had been signed to the
certificate ut nomination for Mr.. Cullen.
He admitted thar there had been some
ID. ID. Merrill, the chairman of the steer
ing committee. They both said, how
ever. that, like the differences of all po-
itical bodies, they think the troubles of
the committee of fifty-Gve will blow
over and the breaches be healed.

NEW DEMOCRATIC CLUB
Organized in the Fourth Ward
Ringing Speeches.

A Fourth ward Democratic club was
organized last evening at the fremont
house, corner of Eighth and Robert
streets. Michael Quigley was elected
president, j. f. Maloney vice president,
and William Ryan secretary. The at
tendance was large. and the meeting
very enthusiastic one. Hon. r. A.
Walsh made short speech in which he
explained that the present adminlstra-
ton has proven a failure owing to the
fact that it has not been in touch with
the masses of the people. In closing,
Mr. Walsh presented the name of Will
lam Dawson Jr. as the candidate for
mayor, and. in the event of his being
chosen as the nominee of the party,
prophesied his election by 5000 majority.
Speeches were also made by Capt. Gal
lick and E. &. Hinebaugh. The club
indorsed F. q. Brady for ward alder
man, w. b. Joyce for assemblyman and
Peter KerSt for city treasurer.
The club will meet again next Fri
day night.

Stormy Meeting Of Republicans
in the Eighth

Harmony was decidedly not the rul-
ing element at the Eighth Ward Repub-
licau club meeting last night held at
Wagner's hall, corner of Western ave-
nue. and Charles street. After few
preliminary remarks by the chairman,
John T. Pearce, the executive commit
fee retired into an adjoining room to
choose delegates for the primary cleo
ton to be held Monday evening. After
being out some twenty minutes or so.
during which time Attorney q. M. Orr
endeavored to keep the crowd in good
humor by harangue on McKtIleyism
and general projection principles. the
committee returned, and Otto Kuetfner,
its chairman. made known to the meet
ing the committees choice. This he
submitted for ratification. A large ma
jority of those present, however (pre-
Sumably the A. z. A. element, was de-
cidedly not with the executive commit
tee, and demanded that each name
should be separately voted on by the
members of the club. So persistently
did the disturbing element obstruct the
business of the meeting that for some
time free fight seemed to be in order,
and row was only avoided by the adj.
jOurnment of the meeting. The eXecu-
tive committee Will hold private meet
ing tonight to cover the ground it was
prevented from covering last night.

Gerhard Wilrich presided over a
meeting of the Second Ward Central
Republican club last night at Lucker's

did was to unanimously pass the follow
Ing resolution, which was offered by the
meddlesOme Vandiver, and appoint a

at 2lU Bates avenue, and that the judges
Of said primary be the same as were
submitted by the. petitioners who asked
for polling place at 21U Bates avenue

pnblicans in the city wanted to become
candidates for mayor because they
knew that the nomination meant elec-

ing: only engaged in little friendly
contest. e. Fl. Lindecke and Joseph
