Mai- schwarz,s Opportunitv.

Mai. John Schwarz has been elected
mayor. The MORNING News opposed him
because he was not the regular democratic
nominee, and because it did not believe that
he was qualified for the position Of chief
magistrate Of the city. The MORNING
News, however, sincerely hopes that it will
be shown that it was mistaken in respect to
Mai. SchwArz's qualifications. No one Of
those who supported him in the campaign
that has Just closed will be more gratihed
than the MORNING NEWS, if he proves him
self to be a capable and efficient mayor.
The MORNING News had bat one object
in view in the municipal contest, and that
was 10 get the best men that couli be OBJ
tanned for mayor and councilmen. 1t will
give Maj. Schwarz and the new council an
earnest and hearty support in all their
efforts to promote the interests Of the city.
If Mej. Schwarz makes a successful mayor,
it will say so frankly, and will help to hold
up his hands in every reform work be un-
dertakes. All good citizens should rally
around him and give him the benefit of
their moral support as long as be keeps his
face in the direction of progress and reform.
IN CITY matters Jlle mOhNINd NEW . has
no ak to grind aud no favors to ask. Its
sole purpose is the advancement Of the city.
1t will criticse and condemn whatever is
wrong, or against tho general welfare of
the people. If there IS notorious weakness
anywhere in the new government it win
point 1t out, or If there IS a failure to en-
force the ordinances or a disposition to
favor individuals or classes to the detriment
Of the public good, the people will be in
formed of it.
MAJ. Schwarz becomes mayor at time
when there is an opportunity for him to
make lasting reputation. The city is on
the up grade She is in good financial con
dition. Her securities are above par. Pub
lie improvements have been begun and the
people are willing to be taxed to have them
continued. II Maj. Schwarz proves him
self TO be a progressive and level headed
mayor, he will receive a full measure of
praise both from the press and the people.
