A week ago this cvening the Central Reform Club, an organization numbering & member- ship of about 1,000, and which claims to have elected Agnew Sheriff two years ago, met and adopted resolutions to torture the Democratia Convention, commending tne fitness of Jobm' M. Armstrong for Sacriff, actuated, doubtless, by the belief that, having once becn successful; the office of Sherifl was its property. Itsac- tion had very little effect, howcver, upon the Democrats; but, undaunted. the Executive Committee of the Club held a mecting last evening in 2 Washington strect gurret and determinea not only to reaounce the zction of the Democratic Convention, bat to nominate a full county ticket. 5 The meeting was called to order by James Nolan, the President of tbe Club, and J. 8. Childs, who introduced the resolutions at ¢l last mecting calculated to makc the uext Sher- iff, submitted a proposition that the Club make nominations for the several offices to be filled irrespective of party. ‘The resolutions are said .to have provoked a stormy dcbate, but were finally adopted, ont of ‘which the following ticket grew: State's-Attorney—J. N. StilesN_ Sherif—Jobn M. Armstron; Clerk of the Circuil Couri—Jacod Gross. Recorder—Otto Peltzer. Coroner—Dr. J. L. Quirk. County Commissioners—' J. Plows, W. R. Burdick, Jame3 Bradley, and A. M. Hofiman. Aside from the above ticket a full Senatorial and Legislative ticket was concocted, about epuaily divided between the nominctions of the two parties. Inasmuch as the meeting was a sceret one, the animus of it cannot be given. The reporter is under obligation to one of the officers for wiat is given, which is gurel'y ‘upon - his-- autbority. Therc is no doubt tkat some such action wus taken by somebody, but it is_bighly improbabie that the Club in question will sanction the ac- tion, however anxious it may be control ths coming election in a private way. The. fajrest’ inference, explanatory of the garrct’ proceed- ines, is,that the leadérs of the movement would not object to selling out, and have named their ticiet simply to enhance their price, ete., in the minds of the contending parties. THE DEMOCRACY. PREPARING TO PURGE THE COUNTY AND LEGIS- LATIVE TICKET. The Democratic County Central Committce met at the headquarters, No. 77 Clark street, esterday afternoon, Mr. Perry H. Smith in the chair. There was 2 ‘howling crowd in. attend- ance, who seemed inciined to know what was going on. The fact is, the Democracy are dis- gusted with the Legislative ticket, and the meeting was for the purpose of ‘‘bouncing'® the bad fellows, which would probably include the whole crowd. Mr. Perry P. Smith called the Committee ta order, and suggested that they retire to & pri~ vate room. g AIr. N. E. Sheldon—Mr. Chairman, I object. There are things to be brought up that arC par amount to any other considcration. Asa Dem- ocrat 1 object to the Republicans and the Chi- cago Times runuing the party, which I think capable of running itscl. o Fhe Chair~You have one of the best rights in the world to'object, but as the matter of which you have spoken bas not come up, it might uo~ dYer other circumstances be proper to rule you out of order, especially as you are not 8 mem- ber of the Committee. Gus Van Baren offered the following: Resoleed, Thata commitiee of 100 Democrate, to be sclected by the Chair from tbe promincut Demacrats of Cook County, be invited by the Com- mittee to meet with them for the purnoee of taking into consideration all things nccessary for the besi Interests of the party at the coming clection. Mr. Rafferty moved to amend that each mem- L her of the Central Committee appoint five members of that Committee. = The question was put and the Chair could not * decide. Mr. Van lation. Miles Kehoe objected to the whols business, as he did not know that any mistakes had been made.
