South-Side Democrats Who Are n,
posed To Present CITY Goveru-..,

SOuth-Sfde Democrats Who Are On
posed to Present City ernm
A still hunt I'm the fullest sense of the
word is being carried on in the southern
part of the city by a secret league. which
is composed entirely Of Democrats who
are opposed to the present city administra-
ton. The league met last evening and
there were 16s members present. Their
meetings are strictly private and no, one is
admitted unless the password is given. All
members were formerly active and working
Democrats. A list OF doubtful Democrats
has been obtained from the Democratic
poll takers and this list has been divided
among the members of the league. The
members take particular pleasure in visit
ing the doubtful Democrats and telling them
the inside information about the machine,
and these methods and facts never fail
TO convince a doubling Democrat TO pledge
his vote for and good govern
ment. Thus far the membership is confined
to the Fourteenth and Fifteenth wards and
is chiefly composed of Germans. but the
movement is rapidly spreading through the
other wards In the southern part of the
city. One enthusiast from the Fifteenth
ward predicted that as the result OF this
movement the Democratic plurality in the
Fifteenth ward will be less than $50.
