mr., Conrad for Mayor.

Citizen voters Of Wilmington, you
have but little time left now in which
| to make up your mind for whom you
will vote for Mayor Of Wilmington.
This is probably the last appeal the
REPUBLICAN will have an opportunity
Of making to you to vote the Republic
can ticket, unless copy should happen
to fall in your hands tomorrow after
noon before you will have performed an
American citizen 'sgreat duty and privi-
lege-that Of going to the polls and
voting for the men Of your choice for
the offices for which they are designa-
ted. AS last appeal we would entreat
you to go the polls and vote for Henry
G. Conrad, Esq, for Mayor, for the rea-
sons herein set forth
First, because he is in every way
worthy of the Office ; secondly, because
he will fill it with signal ability, and
thirdly, because he will perform its
duties in a conscientious manner. Mr..
| Conrad's life and history are part Of
the life and history Of Wilmington,
growing up with it from beyond his
majority in life, he Is known by more
people than probably any other young
man in Wilmington. As An attorney
his legal talent will be brought to bear
upon an intelligent discharge of his
duties. AS moral christian gentle
man his influence will be felt in the
good order of the city. AS business
gentleman, having become identified
| with many of the business interests OF
Wilmington, he Is interested in its snc-
lcess, and will not be unmindful Of his
lduty to promote every object which
viii increase the business and wealth Of
,!5ur city.
Not only are these the qualification.
!of Mr.. Conrad TO recommend him as 4
candidate for the office for which he i.
nominated, but we urge the ability
with which he has filled every
position of honor and trust he has evel
3 held, as a farther guarantee that he II
the right man of those named for tn,
chief magistracy of Wilmington. A
+. the actuary or general superintendent
of the colored schools of Delaware, un
g der the auspices of the Delaware Asso
citation for the Education and Mora
8 Improvement of the colored people, h
: has done splendid work, and to hir
IS the colored people of Delaware owe
9 debt Of gratitude, which can be pal
It TALLY repaid tomorrow, by that ella:
It of voters giving him their votes fc
., Mayor. AS member of the Board {
sr Education, he has always favored ever
advance measure that could possibl
Improve the public school system OF OF
~ city. AS member OF the City Council
T. and President of the same, he hi
Is proven himself wise legislator, a
W ways favoring economy and good GO
T. ernment.
ln In Mr. Conrad for Mayor we tax
% pleasure in presenting to you gentl

Ag. suddenly. 1t would take Mr.. Conr
OF years to obliterate his past good recol
Oh even should he take notion to suddt
ne: ly stand still and finally go back
tai his past life and record. He could ]
Or. do 1t. The wheels of advanced thoui

ment up to higher plane Of good e
ave nomical government. Weagain app
