"VoTER," In our local columns,
addresses q number Of very perth
nent questions to ex-Mayor Tober-
man. As formal questions seem to
be the order OF the day, it is special
ly in place that the gentleman who
has the nomination for Mayor OF
the mon, who, par excellence, believe
that "the Chinese must CO." should
rise up and explain his asserted
employment of Cinnamon. Those
OF our fellow citizens who prefer to
be known in politics as Working
men are undoubtedly In earnest in
their views on this question, and
they propose, we should think
neither to mock the public mol
to be Knocked by their own nomi'
mating convention. Has ex Mayor
Toberman been large employer o
Chinese labor? Has he had consid
cradle business relations with thi
much decried race? "Voter' als'

nent queries to Mayor Tobermal
which are certainly worthy of hi
serious and instant atteStion.

THE Peoples ticket appears in
our advertising columns. We DOM
think any dispassionate man can
look it over, compare 1t with the
so-called Workingmen's ticket and
fail to concede the fact that it en-
braces elements which will COM
mend themselves to the average
voter ia preference to ticket
which is not what it assumes to be.
The Workingmen's ticket, with
Workingmen ignored for Mayor
and the principal offices. is like
the play OF Hamlet with Ham
let left out. In vain do we peer
around for such names as Skinner,
Devens, Hughes, Robinssn and the
others who have given vitality to
the movement, OIL the ticket an
.nounced by the Workingmen. AS
there Is no Democratic ticket in the
deld the HERALD will simply con-
stitute itself the organ of faIr-play.
Ofone thing we have no earthly
doubt. and that Is that Mr.. Cohn
more nearly represents the careful
aud vigilant business supervision
which should characterize our
affairs than ex-Mayor
AS u city official he
has been tried and he emphatically
has not been found wanting. In
he Is not running under
'alse coIors, whTci isa great deal.

will towards our elegant fellow cit

THERE seems to be cool as
sumption IN some quarters that the
Workingmen's ticket is an assured
success from the start. Now we re-
gard people who hold this view as
reckoning entirely without their
host. The Workingmen, in our
opinion, had it in their power, by
putting forward candidates dis
tinctly representative of their own
guild, to have carried the bulk Of
their ticket. AS the case stands,
should no new elements be intro
duced Into the fight, we are in
clined to think that the Peoples .
| ticket will hold most of the win
ming cards. All that is needed to
assure its success is that the bulk
of those who inspired the move
ment and participated ia the nom'
nations should stand by theil
work in good faith. A much larger
proportion Of them will do SO than
we thought possible, at first. Mer
who dream of a political walk-ovel
frequently wake up wofully mis-
| taken.
Daily Los Angeles herald., 1878-11-21

WITHOUT wishing to insinuate
anything against anybody, we
don't think anybody who thinks
the Workingmen must, "a mat
ter of course, wit, need do any,
thing, if he is a sensible man, eX-
cept pick up the Couneilmanic
tickets of the Peoples and Work
ingmen's Conventions, respective
ly. Even the most biased man
cannot fail to recognize the super
eminent fitness of the former. Our
distinguished friend, the Poet
Matchmaker, Jesse FL. Butler,
publishes, in last nights Express,
an appeal to the men and women
of Los Angeles. We regard it as
quite probable that the wome n
will all vote for Mr.. Butler, who is
a hugely venerable looking and
handsome old gentleman. but there
is great danger that the men may
vote, with equal unanimity, for
t'other fellow.
