Burglars disturbed the Streatorites last week.
One Friday night somebody effected an entrance
into Gates's book store by boring out section of
panel in the rear door and then unscrewing the
catch of the lock on the inside. They helped
themselves to n lot of knives in the show case
and took few pennies that had been left in the
drawer, but got nothing of much value. They
left the brace and bit with which they effected
the entrance and also some tracks in the mud
outside. Sunday morning the room in Dr..
Evans block where the coal company had some
-four stored was found to be open and several
sacks reported missing. In neither case have the
perpetrators Of the robbery been discovered

City Election.

There is no change in the programme for our
city election next Monday from that announced
last week, except such trifes in the different
wards as are noted below. Andrew Lynch and
John d. Young are the opposing candidates for
Mayor, and o. Leavens and Thomas Larkin for
Police Magistrate In this position of tile contest,
we therefore need only reiterate our preference,
as expressed last week, for Mr. Lynch for Mayor.
We can do this freely without abatement from
our personal respect for Mr.. Young. Mr.. Lynch
is man Of such marked executive ability, ener-
gy, pluck and courage, of such large experience
in public affairs, and has served our people so
faithfully in other important positions, getting
more kicks than pay for his labor, that it would,
in our view, be simply shabby treatment to with
hold from him this empty honor Of the mayoral-
ty, now that he is forced as it were on the track
as a candidate.
FOR ALDERMEN
In the First Ward Mr.. John Kelly and Mr.. l..
B. Delano are the candidatcs-both tip-top men,
either one of whom would make good alder
man.
In the Second Ward, Dr. j. o. Harris is the
leading candidate, having after much urging
ward, who will no doubt see that he is elected
Il. IIuosuIh aisU Dauu,aatv, ,,.s., =,
either case the second ward will not suffer in the
next council.
In the third ward, Mr.. John Leonard and Mat.
White are on the track. Mr.. Leonard has had
experience in former days and will make an eX-
cellent officer. In the case of Mr.. White, good
man, it would seem from the present ordinances
that he could not qualify. P. A. Hall, it is said,
is also a candidate.
In the Fourth, Thos. ID. Catlin and VIM. Stor-
mont are the candidates, so that TIE Fourth will
be well represented.
In the Fifth, W. II. Hull, Esq, is the candidate
brought out by the citizens, and since he would
not be Mayor he ought to be made to serve as
alderman at least. Mr.. Thos O'Mcara is men
toned as probable candidate against him.
In the Sixth Mr.. A. White and |. B. Howe are
the anxious ones Mr.. Howe is comparatively a
new man here, but one of sense for all that. If
the ordinances allow Mr.. White to qualify he
would make faithful representative.
In the Seventh, (South Ottawa alderman B.
b. Griffith is the coming man. No man from
this ward ever served it better than Mr.. Griffith
and no man in the future can be Of more service
to it than he. Griffith and Logan--what they
can't get for the ward, can't BE- had X. Z. Skin
