am pleased 70 know that William

decided TO become o candidate at the
Dsmocrauc nomination for o member

held Q seat In that body, and say II
without fear of successful contradiction
that no man has ever Allied the nosil
ton or Councilman In this city, be he
Democrat, Wing or Republican. who
whilst in Office, did more earnestlv
labor for the best interest Of the tax
payers than William II. Quinn. of The
Second Ward, and he always had the
courage and manhood to publicly de
nounce on the floor OF the Council
chamber everything that bore a sem.
blance TO set mp Job or trickery or
favoritism, and during the several
years he served in Council he had a
clean financial record. No man dare
say that one dollar Of the tax payers
money Justly passed into his hands.
He always opposed large appropriations
being made TO the junketing com nit :
tee Of Council, called the comm lttee on
Legislation, which visited biennially
the sessions Of the General Assembly
for special legislation for the benefit Of
tho few against the interests Of the
many.
He never was accused Of sharing the
pay OF men who had bills against the
city, for his influence In getting them a
rat job, or OF giving his vote for the
passage OF bill which looked crooked.
he never could be approached 70 vote
TOT any measure that did not bear the
Imprint OF fairness and honesty ON its
face, regardless of party affiliations:
aud l sincerity trust that taxpayers oil
the Second Ward will turn out in their
strength at the Democratic nomination.
and place Wm.H Quinn In nom tnation
for Council. No man knows the re-
quirments aud wants of our city better
than be does; and he has the manlinees
TO publically advocate what he believes
TO Dc right and Just, and the moral
courage and stmina to vigorously Oh
pose what he believes TO be wrong
The political sharks ard tricksters
who constantly seek to feed sump-
tuously at the public cribb don't want
to see Mr.. Quinn in Council, aud on this
account the property holders should
rally to his support, and give him al
handsome SHORTY over all competition
