POLICE AND CIVIL JUsTICEs-One of the most
important and exciting contests In the present
political canvass in this city is that over the
positions of Civil and Police Justices. There
are seven Of the former and eight of the latter
to be elected on Tuesday next. The city is
divided into eight districts, and in all ex-
cept the Eighth-composed Of the Sixteenth,
and Twentieth wards-both Civil and Police JUS
tices are to he chosen. In that district Police
Justice only is TO be elected There is won
derful scramble throughout the city for these
Offices. -Four or five sets of candidates are in
the field. with the exception of two or three
districts. The men nominated represent nearly
all grades Of society, from barroom loafer up
to those who are well qualified for the positions.
The latter GLASS are far less numerous than they
should be for the creiit Of the parties nominal
ing them, to say nothing Of the city; nor have
the pretended reform parties improved this
feature any in the character Of the men whom
they have nominated.
Notwithstanding this general character of the
nominations, and the evidence that it furnishes
unquestionably q decided choice among the
numerous candidates in almost every district.
The importance of these positions is such that 1t
b the duty Of every voter to ascertain which Of
the numerous candidates in his district is the
best qualified for the Office, and cast his vote
for him. Certainly, with the muddle and IRE
gularites which exist In almost every ward of
che city. no person can feel himself bound to
vote for these positions on the score Of party
IL hs does he will ind about rs much trouble
In ascertaining who is regular a. he will in and-
ing who b the best qualified. Qualification Is
The only tcst that should guide our citizens in
their votes for the nominees for so important
odasss a. Police and Civil Justices. With this
- their guide 1t will be very easy matter for
every voter to decide whom he will cast his
vote for, or Gt least whom be will not.
