r,s wbie. Of the District can elect Mr.. Bowen

by FIVE hundred majority, or they can oy quar-
reling defeat him-and elect LOco-Foco.
There is the whole case; act in full view of the
responsibility.
In the Eastern District, there is some I'M
derhand opposition to JOSEPH HoHrr; aud
Why Has be not always been jealous and
hsrd-working Wing Is he not capable, wor-
thy and good citizen All this he certainly
is. But, say some, he is not OF our particu-
lar stripe of Whggery.' Well; he is good
deal less of ours than he is ofyours His par
ticular afinities for some years have not been
at all with our school. But he is sterling,
wide-awake Wing and good man, and either
be or Aid. VIM. NJ. Tweed will certainly repre-
sent the District in the next Congress. What
Wing can hesitate between them
As to MARSHALL O. ROBERTS, in the North
River middle District. we had never thought OF
him as possible candidate, and we are well
assured that the nomination surprised him as
much as il did us. He has been so engrossed
in extensive business of late years that We have
hardly heard of him in politics but from 1884
to 1910 there were few men who worked harder
for the Wing cause than he did. and he has
never voted any other than the Wing ticket.
As business man, enterprising and active; as
citizen, liberal and philosophical; in private
life irreproachsble aud beloved, why should he
not be heartily supported by the Wings OF the
District. when the only alternative is WWiam
4 Ualberl Could the latter represent the
District as efficiently and credtably Would
he not oppose every effort TO protect our Home
Industry, while Mr. Roberts would heartily
support every one Wings of the nth.
XVIth and XXth Wards we beseech you not
to let your District be lost when YOU are
abundantly able to saveit
In the middle Eastern District, JosyPH 8.
vARyuM has been subjected to a most vindic-
tive Wing opposition which he has never de-
served. He is young man of unimpeachable
character, undoubtcd Whigprinciples, compe-
tent abilities and legislative experience. No
man in the District would lend a more hearty
or consistent support to the carrying into Ell
feet of Wig principles by the adequate Pro-
lection of our own Labor, the energetic m-
provcment of our Rivers and Harbors, &c. &c.
We do trust that the sensecss and suicidal OPP
position to him which has been iOmented in the
XIth Ward may be given up, and that he may
be elected by bountiiul majority.
In the uptown District. JAMES BRooKs is
again in nomination. Perhaps the District
might have better spared a better man to
represent it at Washington, but that is no
longer a practical question. Either JAugs
Brooks OF Francis B. Curing will be sent;
and in every respect that Mr.. Brooks may seem
10 be objectionable to some of the more pro-
grcssiye Wings, his competitor is equally OBJ
noKious, in addition to his party relations.
Out Of the ten most important votes to be
taken in the next Congress, Mr.. Brooks wolld
in all probability be right on nine and wrong on
one; while Mr. Cutting would be wrong on at
least nine, including the one exception in Nh.
BrOoks's case. Friends up town we can't
afford to throw away seats in Congress on per-
sonal or abstract diticrcnces-lct us take hold
and reflect Mr. Brooks
We have frankly admitted that we should
have nominated differently had il been ours to
choose candidates for Congress. But not one
Of the Wing candidates is Objectionable on per-
sonal grounds-all are qualified, useful citizens,
OF good morals and standing and all decided
Whiss Let us try and elect them
