AUGUSTA. March g. 1890
To tn, Chairman of tn, R,nubi,ean Ctt,,
Caucus:
Being unable to attend the renubIican
city caucu. tonight. and learning that HIM.
s. w. Lane has consented 10 have hi. name
used for a denomination for Msyor and
that motion would he made To nom;na,e
him by acclamation. take this method of
being one of those to second the motion. I
do this for the reason that l heartily en-
dorse Mayor Lanes administration for the
past year-he has made many needed i'm.
provethents, among which is the new
bridge. While I do mot think that anv in.
crease in taxes will result from said i'm
provements. vet. should A rise be neces.
sary. l shall not whine over il. but nav
them cheerfully. Personally. all l will ask
is, that Mayor Lane will give us as good
an administration the coming wear. a. ho
has the pas; year. No person can ask for
a better one if he will but look into the
matter without prejudice.
Very respectfully YOURS.
