shifted the west line of the Fourth
ward from Fifth to Seventh street.
That changed the habitat of Mr..

one of the ablest alderman in the CITY.
He will stand, however, for the Fourth
ward, and the Fourth ward can do
herself honor by electing him.

lsThdous to speak . word in Bic
praise. Prominently at the front In

views, tempered with q continuous
conservatism, he is eminently lifted
to represent both that youthful
enthusiasm which builds up great
things, and that sound common sense
which builds wisely and will His
election to the council would give
added strength to strong council.
We take great pleasure in calling
attention to the fact that Alderman A.
j. Caruthers will be . candidate for
reelection from the Fourth ward. It is
a matter Of pleasure because there has
been some doubt about his consent to
run again, and Caruthers is man that
. city cannot spare out Of her councils.
He is man Of great brain, sound COM
mon sense, clean cut, practical bust
ness ability and he is man Of the
people. His work in the council has
been laborious and pains-taking and
valuable to the city and the Third
ward has never been better represented
than the past term. The country might
DO secured without finding an sbler or
better man for alderman.
