A cordial invitation is extended to Democrats from every section of the county, to be- come members of the organization, and those proposing gentlemen for member- ship should hand in the names to the chairman of thé committee. ~The council organized on Monday night by the slection of Mr. Brew ss president, Isaac Mitchell for clerk, J. C. Harper for solicitor; Thos. Shaugh- ency street commissioner and Samuel Rysn superintendentof the water works, Mitchell it is said reversed the usual order of voting and instead of calling in alphabetical order called part of the B's first and wound up with that letter, calling Brouse’s name first who voted for Brown for president and then Brown who voted for Brew, after calling the other names he wound up with Mr, Brew, who voted for himself, the vote already standing five to three in favor of Brow, thus making the vote six for Brew and three for Brown. We can't see that the Democrats gained anything nor can we see why any Democratic member of the council should vote for Brew for president as against Ed Brown or tor Mitchell for clerk as against any Democrat. Mr. Hepburn like Mr. Brouse seems to have taken the bit be- tween his teeth and voted against his party. We think men elected to the council as Democrats, should support Democrats, particularly when the Re. publieans are in the majority The general feeling among the Demo- erate and a great number of Republicans is that Tsamo Mitchell has run the council long enough and should be die placed.
