Coon MEN--There seems to be GREAT
apathy among our citizens in regard to
the election of city officers for the ensu-
ing year 1t is the duty, however, of
every citizen to see that good men are
selected to administer our city govern
meut; and great care should be exercised
in the selection of such unacceptable,
honest and worthy naen-than in the
selection Of men to fill more lucra
tive positions. The Democrats of the city
were to hold mass convention last even
ing for the nomination of suitable men to
fill the various offices. Let the Rcpub-
licans of Albany hold a similar conven-
ton this evening, nominating only those
who are deserving, honest and coinpe-
tent, and the whole ticket will be tri-
unlphantly elected. Such result is
worth a little effort, and we call upon
every msn who values order and good
government. to forego his case anI CON-
fort for one evening. and come out and
aid in nominating a good ticket. Let us
have one more square deal.
