The adjourned meeting of the Board OF
Aldermen for the preliminary canvass of
the voting lists was held last evening.
The task did not occupy over an hour. A
great many things political could be seen
In the changes from the registry list to
that OF the personal list. In the first place
1t is quite evident that the alteration plant
warriors who hail from the West Side
Club are out for Alderman Barber's scalp
in the next city election.
viii Vote for Aldermen and Councilmen.
The large number OF changes from the
rsgistry to the personal lists by members
OF the West Side Club shows conclusively
that decided interest is being taken by
the members of that club In the coming
city election. The vote In the Fifth Ward
is quite close, and very few votes will
change the complexion of the representa-
tives from that ward. II was noticed that
about 15 members Of the West Side Club
will he able to have q say who shall repre-
sent their ward for the next year. II will
be remembered that at the recent Repub-
lican caucus held early this fall for MEM
Is votes would have altered considerab bly,
the representatives placed upon the ticket.
1t was also noticed that the Frerch Re-
publican Club, or its second ward mana
gers are making preparations to mend
their fences. Numbers OF voters names
were added to the voting list, whose pa
pcrs are ready or will be ready in a short
70 vnta
but can be placed upon subsequent lists
when they have declared their intentions,
or when the time limit has expired. The
Fourth Ward indicates that lthe Demo-
ic managers OF that ward are alive to
the 81 IA len, and are laying their plans to
surprise their Republican friends in the
next city election. or course, really, this
canvass amounts to nothing, but, at the
same timc, pretty fair estimate can be
.ascertalned OF the relative expected increase
OF the vote ia both paEties.
Chsaxes Sy wsyds.
In the Piret wsrd one name We dropped
from the real estate list; no changes Ia
the personal list and Is from the registry
list. These changes were for the reason
tba. some Of the names dropped were that
a certain portion were transferred to the
personal list, and others for the reasons
that they did not have their full papers.
In the Second Ward there were three
real estate changes, and 50 changes from
the registry list.
In the Third Ward there were two real
estate changes and 19 registry changes.
In the Fourth Ward there was one per-
sonal and 81 registry changes.
In the Fifth Ward there were two
changes in the real estate, two personal
and d5 registry.

ing. The records OF the previous meeting
