In this case therefore John W. Green, colored, will be placed on the list. In other wards some similar course will, it is un- derstood, be adopted to secure the nomination of a fair tot of colored men. in venth Ward ihere will from appear- be three ward tickets, the Boswell, a Republican Club ticket, the Revorm Republican Club ticket, and the Bowen ticket The division in regard to ward officers between the Beswell men and the Retorm Kepublican: will be nominal rather than real, ess there e of votes will doubticss be a friendly for the best men on the two tickets.
