The news-democrat. (Providence, R.I.) 1906-1909, 1907-10-24


voters selected as wardens. clerks or su-
pervisors. representing the Democratic
party. as selected by the several ward
| canvassers and registration by Col
Thomas III. Donahue, chairman OF the
Democratic city committee. and by the
| chairmen OF the various ward organiza-
tiOns.
Two names are presented by the ward
committees for the chief party represen-
tative. with the hope that the board Will
pick the official from the lists submitted
rather than select the official irrespective
of the wishes of the ward organization,
or the city committee
The board. not being required by law
TO make the selection for warden or clerk
from the lists submitted, has frequently
appointed others than those suggested by
the Democrats. For this reason Chair
man Donahue and the ward chairmen re-
paired to the office of the board this af-
| ternoon TO state that the appointments
should be made from their lists. because
the names represent the wishes OF the
party organization.
The board is required by law to select
two supervisors to represent each party
on election day. from the lists handed In
by the city organizations of the respec-
tive parties. Six names are filed from
each OF the districts. thus giving the
board leeway In the selection of such offi-
cials.
The boards rule of selecting wardens
carried by Bryan In the 1900 campaign the
wardens will be Democratic. while the re-
verse Will obtain in the districts carried
| by Mckinley. Why the board goes back
to 1900 instead Of 1904 is not clear II II
could go back to some year when the
, Democrats carried no district there
would be no Democratic warden in the
| city.
Following are the lists from all the
| wards except the Fifth
