you in part in the Common Council. You can
elect true and tried Republican or an out
and-out Democrat; you have at least 30 clear
majority when full vote is polled You
eau elect James Know!ton a man whom you
have nominated in large caucus without a
dissenting voice, man who has faithfully

whom the tongue of SANDER is nowhere heard,
an unfinching Republican, an industrious
mechanic, an honest, intelligent and high
minded citizen; or you can elect William Cur
tbs, lifelong Democrat who goes with his
party whichever way it heads, who works for
it, talks for it, rejoices over its successes and
mourns over its defeats, one who votes for and
with his party, whether it goes for rum or tenn
perance, slavery or freedom. We expect ev-
cry Democrat to vote for Mr.. Curtis. He is a
representative mana man ON whom the par
ty can rely. We address Republicans only
the men who have sustained the government
during the war, who now Sustain Congress in
its efforts to establish the government on the
basis ofjustice and equal rights; we earnestly
intreat you to stand now as you have stood in
years past, an unbroken column. For this
year, perhaps the most important in the ma
TONS political history, all local andminor con-
siderations should be absorbed in the momen-
tous issues before the country. 1t is for you
candidates will be chosen, and will owe his
election to Republican votes. Will you give
them to William Curtis or James Knowlton?
