"JoHS w. MAURY is announced q candidate
Tor the Mayoraliy at the ensuing election In June.
"MANY CITIZENS"
In making the above announc ement, it is deemed
proper to say that large number of citizens Of all
parties, from the several wards OF the city, ad-
dressed TO MIR. Maury few days ago n communi-
cation expressing their with TO present his name
to his fcliowcizcn a candidate f,r the Mayor
atty at the ensuing election, independent Of all
questions connected with the politics of the day +,
and soley in consideration of his long and useful
services In the Councils, and of his fitness for the
place.
To this communication the following reply has
been received
al have received your, communication. What
ever might have been my personal wishes on the
subject il would have been difficult for me TO resis
| the friendly call you have made upon me; but,
agreeing ms do sntirely with all that you have
said as to the nexpediency Of bringing national
politics into our city elections, | most cheerfuly
| place my name at your disposal a candidate for
the MayoraIty at the ensuing election
| APP 26-dtf JOHN w. MAUHY"
As the friends of other candidates for this Office
are already active in their behalf, desire to pre-
sent the name Of the present incumbent, WALTER
LESox, esq., for reelection. II is to be expecte
that personal preference will, to extent gov
ern the choice OF many; but before the community
generally honest and discerning in ts decision is
not the proper question. sWhat is the public inter
est" II must be admitted by every rejecting citi
zen that sudden and uncalled for change is not
only upjuat to the officer, but to the public inter
est II takes away the personal motive and ambi-
on which induce the faithful performance of duty,
and loses to the public the benefits of official expert
ence. IL the present incumbent has discharged
the duties of the Office with ability and zeal, and
can hereafter bring to it the advantas of practical
experience, trust that the people of Washington
will not use the elective franchise to their in
jury and the injustice of public officer.
