THE FIFTH WARD.
Candidates Are Asked to Turn Them
selves Loose saturday Night


The methods of canvassing the Fifth
ward, as recently practlced by he army
of candidates seeking the support Of the
sovereign in that section OF the city do
not appear to meet with the appreciation
of the better classes Many of them object
to attending meetings called In saloons
almost nightly in the interest of certain
office seekers, but all Of them, il is said
are anxious to know the claims of the va
rious aspirants for the positions they de-
sire mt the hands OF the voters In order
to eliminate all features that the most
iastdious could except to. and at the same
time give everybody a chance of telling
the public why he is in the race Mr. w
r. Carter has called democratic mass
meeting of Fifth warders to b. held ut
Pythtau hall at o'clock on Saturday even
inG when all candidates for office will have
| an opportunity to meet the citizens of the
ward, advocate their claims. expound their
principles and turn themselves loose gen.
orally In turtherance Of their oandidature.
1t is believed this will do away with the
necessity OF nightly meetings by the can
dldatfs and give sort OF birds eyo
View OF the political timber in search OF
official jobs In the next election II is at
| least good plan OF getting all the can
didatos together, enabling the voters to
size up their fitness and qualifications.
ana for this reason will probably at.
tract not only the office seekers, but n big
crowd OF the sovereigns as we'll.
