"JoHs w. MAURY is announced as a candidate
Tor the Mayoralty at the ensuing election In June.
MANY CITIZENS"
In making the above announcement, il is deemed
proper to say that large number Of citizens of all
parties, from the several wards OF the city, ad-
dressed to Mr. haury u lew days ago commune
cation expressing ,iieif wish to present his name
to his feow-citizens candidate for the Mayor
atty at the ensuing election, independent oi all
questions connected with the politics of the day
and solely 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:
81 have received your communication. What
ever might have been my personal wishes on the
subject, il would have been difficult for me TO resst
the friendly coll you have made upon me; but,
agreeing as do entirely with all that YOU have
said as to the inexpediency OF bringing national
politics into our city elections, most cheerfully
place my name at your disposal as candidate for
the Mayoralty at the ensuing election.
Ap 26-dn John w. MAURY"
As the friends of other candidates for this office
are already active in their behalf l desire to pre-
sent the name Of the present incumbent, WALTER
LENox, esq, for reelection II is to be expected
that personal preference will, to some extent, gov
ern the choice OF many; but before the community
generally honest and discerning in its decision, is
not the proper question, What is the public inter
ests" II must be admitted by every rejecting cti-
zen that sudden and uncaed. for change ia not
only unjust to the officer, but to the public inter-
eat. II takes away the personal motive and ambi-
ton which induce the faithful performance of duty
and loses to the public the benefits of official expert
encc II the present incumbent has discharged
the duties Of the office with ability and zeal, and
can hereafter bring to it the advantage Of practical
experience, trust that the people of Washington
will not use the elective franchise to their own in
jury and the injustice of q public officer.
