The Cincinnati daily star. [volume] ([Cincinnati, Ohio]) 1875-1880, 1880-01-02

In the Eighth Jack McCourt and in the
Seventh it's hard to tell, but we guess Uncle
Billy Bridges will go in.
For City Attorney, M. l. Roberts, of
course, and H. Adams for Treasurer and
George Dawson for City Clerk ]. Calvin |
will beat them all for Wharf Master.
For City Collector, O. J. Virgins will be
elected, as he should be.
For City Engineer, Thomas Kennedy |
will 90 in by handsome majority.
For Jailer there seems to be no doubt |
about Uncle Tony Willenbrink's election.
He has made good officer and is necessa-
rily entitled to two terms and should have
it and you can rely that he will gnaw his
opponent most beautifully.
For Sealer and Gauger, Jake Dennis,
from the Sixth Ward, is a candidate, but
his name will be Dennis after the election.
We also have John Sheridan, a very clever
gentleman; there is Fred. Timon, Billy
Casey, Frank Laudenback and several
others, but the man who should have the
office is poor old honest, faithful, hard
working and physically and financially
crippled, Jack Stepheson. He has large
family derending on him forsVheir support,
while all of the other candidates are single
men. We say give it to Jack for the benefit
of his family, if nothing else.
For Street Commissioner George Wolk-
ing is swimming along beautifully, but
Abe Campbelps friends are working like
troopers, and Mr.. Ed. Murphy's friends are
not slow. Why we think Geo. Wolking
will be elected is this: He will get the
German vote nearly solid and that is the
majority. Mr.. Ed. Murphy will poll
large vote among the Irish people, which
splits the Irish vote between him and
Campbell. Wolking will also get large
American vote while jake Thompson will
pile in big vote among the American
class and colored voters. The third term
is also working hard against Campbell.
Tom Dunn is big Campbell man but then
he don't exactly carry the key to any cleo
tion that We have heard of and may need
what little influence he has for himself
probably when he runs again.
The extremely popular, honest, intelli-
gent Jack England for Marketmaster; there
will be no trouble about his election, but
his opponent (Baily), is like Mac. Day
against Virgins. He will get England's
his own ticket, and England's and Virgins
names are on the tickets, that they hand to
the clerk of the polls.
Johnny Weaver could be elected Presi-
form that he is running on for Wood Meas
urer viz. "All for charity"
Go to the polls and vote for your men.
7. e. Stockwell, they say, is a candidate
for Council in the Second Ward.
