Worth. '~
PIrTsBURe, February II, 1890.
We, the undersigned business men Of
Pittsburg, have been closely watching the
present campaign of Pittsburg. We feel
that the best interests of the city can be
served by electing Henry L Gourley Mayor.
He is in accord with the present municipal
government, against which not breath
Of scandal has been raised, and under
whose active and vigorous warfare the
dives, the dens, the gambling hells, the
policy shops that were corrupting the young
and old of both sexes, all of them have been
driven from Pittsburg, and to-day there is
not single one OF them within the cog
nizance of municipal authorities. The
Judges OF the Courts of Quarter Sessions
of Allegheny county have repeatedly from
the bench eomplimented the municipal au-
thorities on this. -
Blackmailing Aldermen and venal,
vicious and corrupt judicial officials have
been hunted down and sent for long terms
to the penitentiary and workhouse, and
aiders and abettors Of the criminal classes
have found Pittsburg too warm as a place OF
residence. -. a---
Not another city in the country can par
allel this record, and no other city In the
Ter of intelligent, economical administration
of all its various departments.
Fathers and mothers having sons liable to
temptation know these facts by heart, and
feel no fear when their children are out of
sight. This is the most satisfactory COM
mentary on the excellence Of the city morals,
and it all results from the constant super
vision of the city authorities upon the affairs
within its charge.
In view of these facts we indorse his can
didacy. a.
