Ratification Meeting Tonight.


We anticipate a large outpouring Of
the people tonight, at Turner Hall,
should the weather be propitious
There is a general desire to hear
Mayor BAKERS report of his steward
ship. He will, doubtless, show what
has been done with the money paid
by the people in the way Of taxation.
We believe he will demonstrate that
every dollar of it has been honestly,
judiciously and economically applied
in the public improvements which add
so much to the credit Of the city, and
contribute so greatly to its more rapid
growth and development.
In addition to Mayor BAKER, short
and spicy speeches will be made by
several other gentlemen, who are cap
able of entertaining an audience, as
we'll as instrueting it in the principles
Of the Republican party.
Added to these attractions will be
the splendid music Of the inimitable
Crescent City Band, Of itself sufficient
to draw crowd.
Wehope to see the large hall densely
packed with the voters of the city,
that they may hear for themselves
and make up their minds accordingly.

BUSINESS MEN, we trust, will be
careful about making engagements
that will take them out of the city on
tie day Of election. Those who have
friends absent should write to them
at once to come home before the cleo
ton. The future prosperity of our
city may depend upon a very few votes,
and it would be a subject for continu-
ed reproach for few meu to re feet
that the management Of city affairs
passed into incompetent hands be-
cause OF their carelessness and indif-
ference. Let every Republican and
every friend of Evansville be wide
awake and energetic. Success will
certainly crown their efforts.
