IS A MIXED TICKET.
Democrats Meet in Caucus and Elect
Candidates for the Ward Off,
ces for the Election.
ScHLENkER AND WEIER ARE OUT.
North Siders are Turned Down But Peter
Pirsh wins Out in the Race for Al
derman in the First Ward.


The Democrats held their caucuses
IN the different wards of the city Friday
evening and they resulted in a very
mixed ticket being placed in the field.
Among the nominees are many clean
men but there are also several who
should certainly meet defeat at the
polls.
The surprise of the caucuses was the
denomination of Alderman Peter
Pirsch in the First ward. After the
occurrences Of the last few months
it was hardly thought possible for
Pirsch to be rerominated, but he car
ried the @caucus by a large majority
and his opponents were dumbfounded
by the strength shown.
In the Seventh ward the Democrats
took the bull by the horns and Chris
Weier, whoshas been representing the
ward in the council for several terms,
was relegated to political oblivion. For
some time the Seventh ward Democrats
have given notice that Weier was to
be turned down, but many people
thought that the alderman could
marshal votes enough to win.
Charles Werner, the candidate in the
ward, secured more than two-thirds of
the votes cast.
Jacob Schlenker was another one
who fooled with the buzz saw
and the people did not consider him
safe enough to make second run for
the office. Schlenker was an avowed
candidate, but the friends of Peter
and after several ballots Sch1enker
gave up the fight.
Mat Scholey had an easy thing in
the Fifth ward, getting almost
the unanimous vote.
Tully had an easy fight in the Third,
getting the nomination by majority
Of 80.
