BRooKLYN CHARTER ELECTION.

Republicans Of Brooklyn your representatives
have placed in nomination, for Mayor Mr..
FREDyRtCH SCHOIEs, al ardent Republican and
On honest man. His prObty and personal worth
are Acknowledged, even by Lila enemies AS q
public man, none has stood higher in Brooklyn;
and if elected, we believe be would make most
acceptable Mayor. The nomination was made al
so late day that thorough canvass OF The
city is impOssibe but great deal OF work can
be done between now and Tuesday morning next
If our friends will only SET about it. Let them
lose no time but do their duty at once. See to
il that the chanengers are appointed, the lists all
ready. the polls manned, the tickets prepared,
and all the arrangements complete. The Demo.
crats in the Common Council this year, for the
first time in the history Of Brooklyn, degraded
the Board Of Education into partisan machine;
and they now have bill before the Legislature
giving the appointment Of members Of this body
to the Mayor. As the Democrats have now o
majority in the Common Council, and il viii be
very difficult, in the coming election, to overcome
THAT majority, on account Of the number holding
over, the Importance Of electing Q Repubi-
can Mayor is apparent Already nearly oil
the Departments of the City Government are en-
crossed by Democrats and should the BIZ in re-
htion to the Board of Education pass the Legs.
lature, with Democratic Mayor, the character
and efficiency Of the members of that Board,
judging by the example Of the recent appoint
mcnts would be utterly destroyed.
Under Democratic misrule, the Charter, which
provides that no expenditures shall be ordered,
unless previous appropriation has been made, and
the tax levied therefor, has been Systematically
violated, and instead Of surplus at the end Of
the fiscal year. as under Mayor Halls admins
tration, there has been large deficiency, which
has had to be added to the next years tax levy.
Through this open door corruption and venality
have made sad inrOads upon the Municipal virtue
of Brooklyn. Mr. SchOles is the man to correct
these abuses, by iudicous exercise Of that dis
erection which the present incumbent Of the
Mayoralty has been too tiInid 10 use.
A mas, meeting of the Republicans Of Brooklyn
VIII be held this evening al Musical Hall, under
the auspices Of the " Banner Republican Clay
to ratfy the nomination for Mayor. The most
extensive preparations have been made to make
il meeting worthy Of the Republicans Of Brock
lyn. David Dudley Field Stewart L. WOOdford
and others, viii speak. We hope that the voters
will turn out stroug, and let some Of tho fellow.
townsmen Of the ca0d date give them an insight
into the true issues Of the contest
