Chicago is, as she may we'll be, justly
proud OF her mayor. She is proud for sew
esal xeasons, AMI very good ones. too, OF
the Hon. Carter Fl. Harrison. There are
but few men in American politics to-day
who can show a. clear u record or ss de-
serving and honorable career as Mr.. Har-
rison. From the day on which he left his
home "in the dark and bloody ground
to settle the Eldoralo Of the western
praries, then in its infancy, the career Of
that gentleman has been upward and on
ward. Twice have the people chosen him
as their representative in congress from the
Second District of Illinois, and twice did he
acluit himself OF that trust in manner
that won for him a warm spot in the hearts
Of his constituency.
Twice has Mr.. Harrison been called up
on TO fill the Office Of Mayor Of Chicago
with the highest Mayorality vote ever given
n democrat in this great city, aud twice has
he tiled that Office with honor, winning the
respect and esteem OF her people, re gard.
less OF party.
Carter II. Harrison is to-day the most
popular man in the state OF Illinois, fact
due to the zeal, the untiling energy, and the
steadfastness Of purpose displayed by that
life. The esteem and confidence Of the
people are his in the fullest sense-won by
bis unti inching adherence to the right-his
nAqusstionable honesty Of purpose--his
high moral churacter-and his uuobtrusive
though steadfast mien. Mr.. tiarrison's un-
obtrusiveness, it may be said, is not the
least among his H.any commendable qnal-
tiles; the fact that he is not seeker after
office but rather the office seeks him. is, in
the opinion OF the writer, q high commend
alton. That Mr. Harrison has at heart the
interests OF the community he represents
Will be readily seen by the
following answer TO question
asked by the writer, III a conversation lately
held with Mr.. H.: II came to Chicago"

Mr: Harrison is as yet in the prime OF
life~.his physical qualities being fully
equal to his mental capacities, and that is
