cratic Club was held last evening IN the
handsome club. on Brunswick street. The
meeting was well attended, and President
Sharkey presided. Considerable business
Of Importance was transacted.
A committee was appointed to make ar
rangements for the annual picnic OF the
club. There were seven new members
elected. and It was shown that the club
had made wonderful strides forward since
the last election. and it looks now as
though through their efforts the Fifth
Ward would turn out one Of its old-tiue
Democratic majorities at the next cleo
tion. The members OF the club are even
at this early day preparing TO make
fight for the Democratic cause, and they
say they will keep the fight up until al
ter the election next November.
The ward at the last election went Re-

sides in that section. made all kinds Of
promises to voters, and now that ne has

At Wednesdays meeting of the Board

the proceedings. There was one clause in

also caused Auditor Heath the greatest
alarm. He feared that it would be -ub-
