All IS not serene IN tho Democratic
party IN the city OF wilmington. Mayor
Jeii m does not speak to the members OF
the Board OF Health. 1t has always been
customary tor the members OF tho Health
boaru 10 hoiu once ior Two years or more
or at tne optioh OF the Mayer who mas the
| appointing power. mayor JeHerls DelnB
Democra9 mas inc power absolutely 10
appolht board OF Health. When the
| present BOARD was appointed IN May last
| inc qhuorspanuing was trAG me mayors
son Joseph shoM!4 % appointed to the
r,,1sivion OF secretary OF that body.
But from some cause not yet made
known, Joe was given the cold shoulder
and Charles Ten Wages elected in his
stead. The Mayor has never gotten over
his chagrln and when next May cpmes
around there Will BIO appointed new
Board of Health. So tho Mayor will get
even with the boys after all. They laugh
ed first and he takes his laugh In May
next. DR.. Fahey presented son Joe's name
but tho members voted init" accept the
geniel smoothfaced Doctor. The members
each receive 500 for their arduous dulies
while the secretary gets 5000. Joe was
made an executive officer at salary of
$3.50 but he was adverse to going around
doing the smelling for tho Board and
promptly sent in his resignation. Joe
may yet become secretary of the Board as
Papa means to appoint another Board
more to his liking and one that he can con-
troll, or at least the appointments to be
made by them.
The Democratic officers in tho Sixth
ward protest against the throwing OF the
votes of that ward out by the Democratic
County Committee. William d. Morrow
who was inspector and George II. Spot
and Harry Worth who were judges pro-
test against the decision of the committee
They very properly insist that the election
was fur That policeman Sherry made
himself very obnoxious IIo cursed tho
inspector because he told him he was OBJ.
structing the window, and interfcrud with
the voters and made row whenever he
could. Instead of being conscrvator of
the peace he was n disturber of the peace.
He even went so far as to ask the election
officers out in the street to fight. That
out of a total registered vote of 800 in the
ward only li6 votes were polled. The
Democrat voters of the Sixth ward held a
meeting and appointed e committee to
secure counsel to fight such action before
the county committee. Here alone
promise to be quite an Interesting fight.
Fred Eden Bach who writes tho Rcpub-
lican glasses in the Sunday Star sets him
self ND us Il prophet and predicts tho fol.
lowing: Tho Republican vote will reach
1900, probably $1,000 Tho AddiCks vote
1900 probably only S,OOO the Democratic
vote, 1000. In addition to the 800 sound
money Democrats who won't vote for
Bryan and Handy, Addlcks will pick up
fully 1000 Democrats in this city, which
may be properly characterized as the
Especial constable or ''bum" vote and
which is for sale No wonder David Ben
nett Hill salisbury throws I'D his hands
in despair for this countyis going Repub.
lican notwithstanding Addicks effort to
throw it TO Dickey and tho Domocrats
So our readers can see that Fred has got
the whole thing down pat. Asa scr he
never got left. He is not like your humble
servant who does not know it all
Watson II. Spcrry and me-too, Wash,
will lsoon be with us and then look out
for Sparks to fly around the News Office,
He once said u certain Republican worker
who Wash is very intimate with was Il
man without liver Wonder if he still
thinks so? Watson is very pronounced in
his likes and dislikcs. At any rate he i,
said to own dog that has seven different
breeds of fcas upon it, with several other
kinds to hear from
1t is said that Peter ] Ford may succeed
Samuel Chambers in the Street and Sewer
Commission. Mayor JctIeris has the an.
pointing power and he has no cause to be
ashamed in the part that Peter tu9k when
he was brought out as II candidate for
Mayor.
Mr.. Ford would make valuable mem
bor of that department, having been in
terestod largely in real estate and improy.
ing our city, A better choice could not be
made. The position docs not nav enough
for man to give his entire time to if, and
men should be we'll heelcd financially who
are appointed on this important commits
sion, as there would be less temptation to
enter Into any kind of Jobs. or course
we don't think tho commissioners would
do anything of the kind, but still the
tomptation is there,
