There remains but a short time before
the most prominent political contest
which this city has had for some time, and
il is conceded by many To be Republican.
TheIr candidate, White, is gradually gain
ing while the third party is losing
ground IL is very evident that Col. Goif
mas seen his mistake and now the only
two prominent pushers are Darling and
Newell. White will continue to increase
his strength by receiving the support of
those who are disgusted with those who
have deserted party which they them
selves tried To start. Promises winch
We're made have not materlallZed, and
there are not lew who speak their minds
forcibly.
There is n point of Whites campaign
different from any ever before by a
Inayoralty candidate. White is not only
an opponent OF the Democracy, but is also
opposed by number of capitalists, who
lave formed a scheme To have man elect {
ed who will satisfy their own eNactions
and designs. Their ends will not be ac-
complished, and after the battle they VIII
review their work with sorrow
1t is stated upon good authority by one
in n position TO know that Sherman will
not get 400 votes. That rally has not been
given, and the work when looked into
which the go-as-you- please party has done
has been lizzle. White is in better rating
than any day last week, and his friends
and supporters are very confident OF sue
cess.

other funeral, and from 10 3 O'Clock his
residence, 10 East street, was visited by
hundreds of people who gathered TO take
the parting look of the familiar face. The
remains presented a life like appearance,
similar To the one in which President
Grant was buried The design was
square cornered with the finest of broad
cloth. and lined with white satin. The
plate was of hammered silver, while
the handles, six in number, were
the most expensive that ever left the
warerooms of Crane X Burns The re-
mains were taken TO the church, by four
handsome black horses wearing the
mourning nets. The impressive funeral
service was read by the Rev. Father Hur-
ley, who also spoke upon the life of the
deceased. He referred to his love for his
church; to the charitable deeds which he
had done how popular he was with all
who knew him. He was kindhearted
husband and an obedient son; and how
he will be missed in the church choir lie
asked the young men of his church to fol-
low the example of the departed one that
they might lead good life.
The singing was by the church choir,
and Mrs. O'Demers feelingly rendered
