The Jersey City news. (Jersey City [N.J.]) 1889-1906, 1890-03-21

By far the most prominent candidate
for Che Democratic nomination for Mayor
today is Robert Davis. Many think he is
the only man who can beat George f.
Perkins, the Republican nominee.
He is so prominent before the people at
this time that the following brief outline
of his career will be read with great in
Interest,"
In Jersey City there is perhaps no
better and more trusted man than Bob
Davis, the Sheriff of Hudson county. He
is under no obligations to anyone for it
but himself
A poor boy. he started life in gas and
steam titter's office, and there, beside do
ing many other things, learned the trade.
Bobn bought books with all his spare
cash and attended night school, and to-
day he can keep set of books that would
MI with envy the souls Of bank book
keepers.
The Jersey City Gas Light Company
nearly twenty years ago noticed the in
telligence and aptitude Of young Davis
and ever anxious TO secure good men en-
gaged him to work for them.
AT 1irSt Bob had tough time of it, for
he was in the machine room, but after
several months he was taken to the Office
and there gradually worked himself into
the company.
1t was aftec he had been there fifteen
years or more that the citizens of the
First district thought it time to reward
him for the hard work he had done year
after year for the Democratic party, and
he was made Chairman OF the County
Committee.
The First district was delighted with
his work there and added further honors
by making him an Alderman. AS City
rather he made the most aggressive and
continuous fight ever made by any Alder
man in this city against the corporations.
He fought against the seizing of streets
particularly and received the commenda-
tion of whole city.
The only other offices he ever held were
chairman of the Democratic Executive
Committee and his present ofiice-Sheriff.
Every one knows how popular he has
made himself in each position
His present Office is the only office that
had salary or fees attached to that he
has ever held.
Speaking of Mr.. Davis today, Register
George B. Fielder, one of the best and
shrewdest leaders Of the Democracy,
said:-
Robert Davis is a man, who like hun
dretls of Others in our city, has grown up
step by step with our every Improvement
and interest, holding positions of honor,
and filling them with credit, with
II nominated for the office OF Mayor | am
sure such nomination will meet with APP
provaI among the many Democrats
in this city also among
others who personally know
him, even though differing from him
politically. notwithstanding the many
criticisms recently published in some of
our local and neighbor newspapers. l am
in favor Of the nomination of Bob Davis
for Mayor"

GOOD WORDS FOR MR.. PERKINS.
His Nomination Received with Favor by
All Glasses.


All Classes.
The nomination of George F. Perkins
for Mayor by the Republicans yesterday
is considered by men of all shades of po-
liticaI opinion as one of the strongest
which could have been made.
The Republicans themselves are jubil-
ant and even begin to talk OF majorities,
always, however, with one proviso; the
nomination of Mr. Cleveland by the Dem
ocratic Convention.
10 the Democrats it appears as a for
midable nomination and one requiring
them TO place in opposition to Mr. Perkins,
the strongest. man OF the party,
a man who enjoys not only the conf
dence OF the leaders but the respect of the
people. With such q man on the ticket
the nomination OF Perkins will be no
more effective than that of the worst
ripgster and most corrupt politician in
the party.
THAT large element of conservative
voters who do not ally themselves with
either party, but cast their votes for the
man who they think will serve the pub
lie the best, express much satisfaction
over the nomination.
TO them it means the assurance of a
GOOD Mayor which ever way the election
roes. 1t will compel the Democratic con-
vention to nominate man in every par
ticular the peer of Mr.. Perkins or else
lose the election.
JUDGE BLAIR's STRONG ENDORSEMENT.
Ex-Judge John A. Blair, who was ex-
Senator Edwards predecessor as Cor
poratiun Counsel, was much
pleased this morning over Mr..
Pcrkius' nomination when I
called upon him. Mr.. Perkins is good,
