The approaching municipal canvass,
is being discussed quietly throughout the
city, and much speculation is INDUCED IN
| concerning candidates. 1t is now given
out tina, neither Captain Halliday, Mr..
Thornton, nor Mr.. Gallagher, will consent
TO make the race for mayor, and Few
man must be sought after. We should
have man OF sound judgment, thorough.
y conversant with the city's necessities,
and of good executive abilities. The
BULLETIN has helped in the creation offs
prejudice IN the Democratic mind
against MIR. p. II. Pope and
at one time entertained no little
prejudice against him itself; but we have
seen much of Pope during the past two
years, and now give it as our opinion that
he would make an excellent mayor; that
he possesses all the necessary quuliica-
tons for the mayor needed by Cairo Mt this
time. lie possesses remarkable executive
abilities, knows the needs of the city and
could give to the city's service, If elected
to the mayoralty, a large portion of his
fnr
more, this arrangement would take Pope
out Of Mr.. webb's way who could then
be elected to the city a,torneyship with
out opposition. These two men on a
citizens ticket, With strong candidates for
treasurer and city clerk, would make
a strong race, and we believe
could be elected by large
majority. We know certain gentlemen
will denounce this suggestion, but we be.
lieve the interests Of the city require some
such combination. What do you ;ay, Rad
icals and Democrats? Suppose we "go
snooksr and make the "blarsted thing "
unanimous.
