We are in the midst OF the hurly- -burly aud hustle
of our first Charter election. Tho polls are crowded
friends urging the various claims OF parties and part
Eans, with right good will As usual in all new ooun
tries there Is an increased number Of candidates in
the field in addition to the regularly nominated tick
cts of the whg and democratic psrties aud even
these regular tickets sraced with the nam,s OF
some who have been kicked out Of their political
coteries at home and have come to California 10 re-
treyc their ruined fortunes. Al the head Of the de-
mocratic ticket stands man however, who from the
time Of his arrival in this town to the present has
enjoyed the private and public n fiendship Of nearly
all our citizens sllude to John cary, the demo-
cratic candidate for Mayor Colonel Geary was sent
here a. Postmaster and had scarcely arrived ere
was removed by the new ad ministration; when, in
stead Of entering political lite. he entered upon
cnntile business from which he called in August
ast to fiji the responsible Office of First Aoade being
elected by an almost unanimous vote lie has admin.
itered justice with force but impartalty has proved
himself one Of Gods nobest works and is
now called upon by the people TO be the FIRST
Mayor of San francisco. aud will be elected beyond
a doubt As reperal thing 1 think the
democratic ticket will be elected although there
is some considerable ia the ranks In
regard 10 the manner in which IL nominated. A
nominating committee was chosen at primary elec-
tion. and II seems our old New York friend of some
nOtOriety Col stevenson, managed % 'rine himself
in slhough not elected and exercised controlling
influence in the nominations The wings very
sanguine Of srcccss but If The democratic party pull
together thty will be left far to leeward
The prospect Of government for our city. in hme-
rican style under the auspics OF any party, is GER
tainy cherring one. California. for the last fDu,
years has been governed cither by set of petty ty
rants who orded it sver us in epauettes or by in
cumbcnts in Office who. protesting to be guided by

in which he alluded In no measured terms to his re-
