Social Democrats Accuse Old Line
Democrats of Sidetracking the
CauCuses in Sixth Ward.
WILL MAKE A NOMINATION LATER
Caucuses of the Party Held in the Other
Wards and Full Ward Tickets
Placed in the Field.

| hight, and Monday night the followers
of the Social Democratic theories held
caucuses in the different yards of the
city to select delegates to the City Con-
vention and to name candidates fer
ward offices.
The night was bad one for political
meetings, but the attendance at the
caucuses must have been encouraging
to the leaders of the party, as in each
ward where a caucus was held there
was ten to twenty people who had
braved the rigors of the storm. The
ticket as named is a badly mixed one,
and most of the men selected for ward
Offices have in other years been firm
supporters of Democracy. The attend
ance at the different ward caucuses
shows that the party is largely draw
ing its strength from the Democratic
side of the fence.
There is no doubt as to the enthu-
siasm of the Socialists, and it is
counted that every member of the
party will vote the straight ticket.
There seems to be quite little feeling
between the Social Democrats and
the members of the Democratic party,
and the fusion that was suggested
earlier in the year seems to be impos-
sible. Of course if the Social Democ-
racy polls the vote that it did at the
last county election in the different
wards the party will cut a big figure in
the approaching election.

Sixth or Seventh wards and the lead
ers of the party are accusing Demo
Gratis high in position Of treachery in
this matter. It is claimed that the
Democratic leaders managed to side
track the men going to attend the eau
Gus. 1t is claimed that many Social
Democrats started to attend the eau
Gus IN the Sixth ward, which was to
have been held at building on Union
street, but that leading Democrats di-
rected them to the school house and in
the general mixup the hour for the
caucus passed without a meeting be-
ing effected.
w. E. Swartout, who is the Secretary
of the party in the county, stated that
the leaders would not let this action of
the Democrats sidetrack the party but
that individual nominations would at
once be filed in both of the wards in
which candidates were not named.
The action of the Sixth ward Demo-
Gratis has widened the breach between
the two parties and it is now cousid7
cred war to the knife.

Those new cars on the M. r. & &.
line are expected to arrive now within
a short time. The Milwaukee Electric
Railway and Light company placed an
order long time ago for large num-
Der of new cars, some of which were
to be assigned to this particular di-
vision, but the manufacturers have
found difficulty in turning them out
fast enough to suit the tastes of the
corporation and the travelling public,
but they are nevertheless coming.
