Third Ward Democrats.
The Democrats of the Third ward are
up in arms for the campaign. They
intend to make good increase this
year in the vote and endeavor to carry
the First precinct out of the Republi-

society. He knew that up to the day
of election, at least, it meant hard work
for him: but with the assistance of his
fellow officials, and the good will of
