KtKK The democratic ward caucuses in the various wards were held last evening, with results, as far as aider manic nominations are concerned, as above indicated. Delegates were selected to the city-township conven tion to be held at Turner hall Mon day evening, and ward committeemen named. . Harmony prevailed in all the wards, with the consequence that men representing the best interests of the party were nominated. In all of the wards the greatest of enthusi asm prevailed and much interest was manifested in the proceedings. The attendance in the Second. Third, Fourth. Fifth and Sixth was larger than for years at a caucus, and in all instances party feeling was given abundant and unhampered expres sion. The nominees are all repre sentative men. Mr. Concannon in the First ward is a molder and an industrious, hard working man, who has the interests of the ward at heart. Mr. Kckard in the Second ward is a carpenter by trade, is widely known and highly respected and his nomi nation means the death knell to Boney" Johnson, a fact that no one realizes more than "Boney" himself. Mr. Winter in the Third is an ex alderman, a leading business man, a level headed citizen, who made a good alderman before and will do so aga'n. Mr. Dauber's renomination in the Fourth, making the third time he has been chosen for alderman, is theb-at evidence of his worth in the council. The meeting was one of the largest ever held in the ward, and the unanimity with which Mr. Dauber was chosen was highly complimentary to him and gratifying to his friends. Mr. Wheclan in the Fifth ward is a native of Hock Island and the ward which has honored him has always been his home. He is a democrat through and through, is popular with all and will make a No. 1 alder man. Mr. Dindinger in the Sixth is a representative of the labor inter ests and his nomination is an excel lent one. He measured swords with Aid. Kennedy once before and was oniy defeated by the narrow margin of a couple of votes, and then under the most questionable circumstances. This time "Ding" will leave no room for doubt. Ho will have a majority that none can doubt, Mr. Kerr in the Seventh is a representative dem ocrat and on the honest vote of the ward will be elected. He is well ac quainted throughout the ward, he knows the needs of the people and they have confidence in him, and be will in all probability be cho-en, notwithstanding the odds which Nel son proclaims are in his favor.

But Progress is Slow on the Twelfth Street Case. MAST OBJECTIONS IJrSTITUTED But Jade Ward Overrules Them AU had a Jury U Finally Imp&nneled to Go oa With the TriAl Wltaeaaes aad Coenerl Ketura. Objectors to the Twelfth street improvement have been given the worst of it thus far in the hearing now on in the Whiteside county court before Judge Henry C. Ward, but they succeeded in delaying mat ters through repeated objections and arguments by Col. Henry Curtis un til two days were consumed before a jury was impanneled to ga on with the case.

Objections were raised against every move tending to get on with the case by counsel, who even went so far as to suggest to Judge Ward that court was not in session. Judee Ward ruled favorably to Bock Island on every essential point, however, and now'it looks as though the case would go on. Witnesses and counsel return Monday. A SILVER OCCASION. Mr. and BIr. A.
