Everybody knows John Dewlan who
is how alderman and candidate at

that he is going to sit in
the council another term. He is a
safe and reliable business man, con-

Charlie Petsch. candidate for alder
man at large, has been so much abused
by the mud-slingers of the Republican
machine that a reaction has set in. Mr..

workers in the city council and is
rustler. He is making strong fight.

friends among the working men.
Bernard Ryan, who is candidate at
large, was elected by the council to fill
the unexpired term caused by resigna-

since that time. He is an old resident
of st. Paul and is engaged extensively
in the teaming business. He is labor
ing man himself and is looking out for
the interests of that class on all possible
occasions. He is we'll known through
out the city as safe man to occupy a
seat in the governing body of the
municipal corporation.
