Err The time is at hand when our Whi; t.lo"
citizens should consult with each other 10 relation 20
the proper 10 be selected candidates Tor inc
municip.l Offices to be filed this fall
Already caucuses are being held by many Of those
VITO have been accustomed 10 strtke, or are called
strikers, well az those Of powerful secret organza
ti0us; While the gree. Of those who directly
interested such "a merchants, mechanics, store
keepers asd househoiders Of every description, are
doing noting and will wake up some few MORNINGS
hence and find some TEiydrate, hegafire man nOmi-
mated for Chief M,glfrats. With all kindness to
some Of our late Mayors who were d0-Ho.hilgs, we
shoud look up men whose career we have known
for integrity, capacity aEd inaomitable industry
such men as have been known through life never TO
have failed in their own private undertakings These
,xere the views Of the late David Graham when no.
minated By the Wing party some years ago, and IN
bis letter Of decination ne stated that ne was but
rnrrg man and should bie his time, and that the
rb, Magistrate should be selected from our Old and
,ceUtyJ,d c,ti-ens This was the view OF man who
stood among the foremost at the Bar VINO was Sno"9
A. well. tried Wing, and was beloved by ali VINO nsd
the honor Of his acquaintance. . c,.
Rradv ard Havemeyer filled the post are any reason
why the friends of every small poltic'an shouu ViO"
about town Oh he is the right KIND OF man,
from .uch men "a Nicholas Dean. lsasc Newton,
Ches II. Mnshan, Moses II. Grinnell, Root D. MIN,
turn or man of that caibre; men tnat have proven
by their IA le that they are able 20 DO eVsry
thin well that they undertske-uleu WIN ia, '''0
moral frmness TO do right. II may seem inyldious
TO select 80 few, but name these because think
they are the kind Of men, although there are many
suehn our City, who might be prevailed upon 70 Sc
cept the nomination. Those who seek the position
in nine cases out OF ten" will be found incapable
and have no claim 10 the honor.
Mr. Dean is well known for his clear mind and the
experitn nee he has had his great love for our Clty
together with his last act in working out the defalcl
tons of the Harlem Railroad; and the high compl-
i'm nv stockholders
the President of the Company - this is another
strong evidence Of his ability. The came with Capt
Chas. G.. II. Marshall. a shipmaster out OF our own
mort for wears and of our leading merchants for
The last TWENTY connected with and among the most
liberal contributors TO many OF our benevolent IN
situations.
Can't Isaac Newton ia one of the most thorough
going business of the day, familiar with the re-
of the City and State and possessed OF un-
firing INDUSTRY. Robert Il. Mlnturn, native New
Yorker possessed of all the excellent Attributes OF re
man and tho gentleman OF large experience, and like
the Others in every way qualified to do nonor 10 such
A position. Select some such men, and our citizens
may rely upon it that they will choke the "aesIs oil
hasfy legislation and insist upon erery subordinate
dofng has dHfy.
| would not disparage some of the others named
such as Zophar Mills, or Robert l. Haws. lhey are
rising Young merchants, and men who deserve TO De
remembered, and are every way worthy for any du-
ties they may be called upon to discharge let they
are uouag men and may abide their time.
Rely upon it Sir such the views OF many OF our
most distinguished ard DISTINGUISHED Wing business
men and among others, Your friend,
WIG OF THE OLD SCHOOL.
