SEVENTIES COMMITTEES
Whom President Blaese Will
Appoint Today for the
Club.

President Joseph Blaese, of the Seventh
Ward Democratic Club, viii today offlcsai-
" appoint the following Executive Com-
nittee TO serve one year term:-F'irst
precinct, Joseph Welsh, John Welsh ana
Charles Kelly; Second precinct, Mlcnaei
]. Fagen, Jr, George Reilly and Henry
Jaahne Third precinct, Miles Mecarron'
George Druen and Alderman WilAam r..
RITTER; Fourth precinct, John Prout,
Timothy Aarons and Paul Revere; Fifth
precinct. EDWARD Whalen, John f1tz-
gerald and julius Breternitz; Sixth pre-
cinct, F'reeholder Joseph Murray, CITY
Marshal Edgar vreeland and George
Barry. Vice President Edward Barr VINO
was elected at the last meeting. IS also
chairman Of the Executive Committee.
The six County Committeeman, one from
each precinct, are:-Joseph Welsh,
Michael l. Fagen, Niles McCarron, John
Prout, Edward Whalen and Joseph Muir
ray. The first important business of the
new committee viii be to devise plans to
raise funds for a permanent clubhouse.
At present meetings are held at the New
York Bay House, which is located at the
extreme north end of the ward, a fact
which has caused Ql5Sd taSIactlolf 10 d
number of members who reside in the
southern part of the ward.
There are a number Of wealthy and in
fuential Democrats residing in that Sec
ton who would doubtless subscribe hber-
ally to the clubs building fund. There
are three Republican clubs In the ward,
each having permanent quarters IN which
numerous social events are held.
1t is the opinion of President Blaese that
one Democratic clubhouse, equipped with
pool tables and reading rooms would ma
terIally aid in increasing the power and
prestige of the party. Il would also at
tract and keep in touch that class of
Democrats that believes that the party
must win. and therefore hardly takes the
trouble to vote.
The officers of the club recognize the i'm
portance OF the permanent home pro-
ject, and intend to speedily push the plan
TO successful end.
The next regular meeting cf the club
wild be held at the New York Bay House,
Monday evening, December 4.
