The denomination Of John r. Mac(;oni-le
For the office of mayor by the voters of
the Democratic party has been unanimous
in the several wards of the city. The fact
| that from the beginning the nomination of
no other person was thought OF con-
| clusively proves that the Democracy found
| in him the best and most tittin. man for
the highest office in the nanicipal govern
ment. And why was this? Mayor Mac
Goniglc has faithfully filled his Office from
the beginning to the close of his term. He
has industriOusly given to it, himself, his
whole time and attention, and discharged
its duties in person. lie has been ar..
honest, bipartisan, intelligent mayor,
man every inch of him. His official, rs
we'll as his personal bearing as the head OF
our municipal government has been al
honor to Lancaster. Could We desire Il
better man for the Office of mayor? Ger
tainly not. We are convinced that our
taxpayers, irrespective OF party, whose
| interests he has steadily striven to protect
and has made first consideration, will not
deny him their votes. And they will d"
right therein.-Die Laterne.

The Democratic City Committee.
The announcement in last evenings IL
TELLIGENCER that the neu city committee
would meet this evening for organization
was an error, as it has been the invariable
custom for the old committee, which nee
essarily begins the work of organization.
to continue in office until after the Feb
ruary election. The old committee will
therefore meet this evening and the city
members Of the county committee have
also been invited to be present.
