HENRY w. LIGHTLY, candidate for
Representative from the South district,

large. prosperous farmer; is one of our
most prominent and worthy citizens, and
we'll qualified to fill the position for
which his party has nominated him.

THE lie Roy Independent goes out of
its way to assail Mr.. Carson, the candi-
date for Representative in the North dis
trict. Capt. Meningitis talks about rail-
road passes," &C., is sheer demagogy.
Jim Carson is an honest, candid, straight
forward man; and will work and vote
right on every important question. His
record is before the people, and cannot
be successfully assailed. We believe the
independent is mistaken in its judgment
Of Mr.. Carson.

If all Republicans will vote for Mr..
Baird he will be elected by a large ma
jority. There is no good excuse for vot'
ing for his Democratic opponent. Mr..
Baird has good legal training. For three
years he studied law with Mr.. Baxter of
Faribault, one Of the best and most sue
cessful attorneys in the State. He has
been unusually successful for a young
attorney, and we have no reason to be-
lieve, from anything in his past record,
that he will not prove fully as capable an
officer as his competitor, MIR. Greenman.

deputy, Mr.. Wilbour, is perhaps the most
capable clerk ever employed in the office.

II. B. COREY is a royal good fellow,
and we like him,-wc can say this with
our hand on our heart. He has been
honored by the Republican party with
the office of Sheriff for three successive
terms; and can it be true that he is now
using his influence against two or three
of the duly nominated candidates of that
party? We hear that it is so. Mr.. Corey
cannot afford to take that course.

MUNICIPAL REFORM.

The Committee of Fifty.three from the
citizens meeting in New York to consider
proposed legislation for the city, have
unanimously reported in favor of giving
the power of removal to the Mayor. 1t
advises that the control of elections should
be taken from the Police Board recon-
mends that municipal elections be held in
the spring, when there are no State or
national political complications to influence
ideals" and thinks the terms of Office
of the Mayor and his appointees
should be concurrent. 1t is also urged
that the President of the Board of Alder
men be elected by the people, the Boards
own choice, if OF the usual order, being "a
standing menace to the city in the pos
sibls event Of his becoming acting Mayor.
That so large a committee should be unan.
imous in recommending these measures,
and that vast mass meeting should ap-
prove the report without vote of dissent,
is one of the most significant incidents IN
all this remarkable, sudden and practical
municipal reform movement, and which is
certain to extend to every prominent city
in the Union,
