Mr.. Carey, in his address. told the club
that it was already a powerful factor IN
the politics of this city and county. He
said he was born in the ward thirty
three years ago at the corner of Dan

man. Mr.. Gormsn, told ne this afternoon

At Jersey avenue and Sixth street (the
Dickinson Club house,, you will always
find them fighting for good government and
the rights of the people. Let the little
fellows call you a lot of Sdisgruntled Re-
publicans, there's lot like you-enough
to wipe out the other clubs before they

This was said to be mainly a refer
