BERGEN CLUB WORKING.
Will Make Repnbs' Majority Small
in the Eighth

A short but interesting meeting of the
Bergen Democratic Club took place last
evening at the quarters at Monticello ave-
nue. and Brinkerhoff street. Every mem
Der present cheered enthusiastically when
a resolution endorsing the entire city
ticket Sas passed. Every member de-
clared that he would work industriously
for the candidates. Although the ward is
hopelessly Republican the members are
going to cut the majority of the opposing
party down, they say.
A challenge for euchre tournament
with the Ninth Ward Democratic Society
was received and will be acted upon al the
next meeting. The date for the tourna-
ment will then be set
Several members, of the Ninth Ward
Society offered to bet the Bergen Demo
Gratis that the Ninth ward would be
carried by them. If it is not the Ninth
warders are to pay for dinner for the
Bergen Democratic Club If the Bergen
people fai. to carry their ward, they will
pay for the dinner. This proposition, i
is needless to say was not received with
any particular enthusiasm.

Director of Education John j. Mulvaney
showed what could be gained by winning
at the April election. He said he hoped
that every Democrat in the ward would
be sure and see that he was registered
SO that he could cast his vote on election
day for the Democratic candidate. This
ward a few years ago went over to the
Republican ranks, but it did not take
long for the citizens to see what party
was wanted, and when the election of a
F'reeholder and Alderman took place in
the last two elections the ward went
Democratic by large majorities. Alder
man Maxwells majority it is conceded
will be over four hundred.
There will be another meeting of the
club Tuesday night All Democrats are
requested to be present.
