A REPUBLICANS SENTIMENTS
met last night prominent Republi-
can who has lately not taken an active
part In politics.
"The conduct of municipal affairs
at the present time" he said
''is disgraceful and should be rem
edied. l am Republican, and have
worked for the principles of the
party at every opportunity. hut In this
local contest will take an independent
stand. IL is above party dictatlon, OF
rather party duty, TO support man who
defies his own party and who stoops TO
petty jobbery and Rdtinkering. Such a man
Is this Newman. He was elected as a
Republican, but 10 his mad desire to
keep himself In power, he has sold his
very body and soul, might say.
This contest Is not party matter. 1t is
fight for pure government, and as be-
tween Farr and Newman. Farr.is the man
TO be supported. II the Republicans of this
city viii do that which is right they viii
indorse Fairs nomination next Friday
night and elect all new men TO the Coun-
Gil who will pledge themselves to wipe
out the present system"
