Twenty eighth Assembly District Central
Republican Club

Twenty eighth Assembly District Central
Republican Club.
That political club, which was instituted
two years ago, held meeting and reor-
ganized last Wednesday evening. The
Nineteenth Senatorial Fire Brigade Wig
wan, corner of Second and Folsom streets,
which was built several, years ago, has
been remodeled and refitted at the ex-
and will be used as the permanent head
quarters of that organization.
The Twenty eighth District is situated
in the very heart of the manufacturing
and commercial district of the City. 1t is
bounded by Market, Bryant, Third and
East streets, and in that location are many
mills and factories which used to employ
hundreds OF men and boys, but which are
now deserted, silent monuments, which
bespeak the result of four years of Democ-
racy.
The members of the Twenty-eighth Dis
trict Club have noted these changes and
have all been more or less affected, and in
consequence they are all protectionists
and will fight for protection, that forerun-
ner OF prosperity.
At the meeting held last Wednesday
evening officers were appointed to preside
lowing resolutions, which embody the
sentiments of the entire club, were offered
by Thomas J. Denehy and adopted:
WHEREAS, The Republican party in National
convention as sembled has nominated for the
highest offices in the gift Of the people of the
United States William Mckinley of Ohio and
Garret A. Hobart of New Jersey; and whereas,

emphasizes in marked degree the highest
form of protection to American labor and
American industries; and whereas, the said
Republican platform favors sound money for
the transaction of the business OF this COM
