Democracy's candidates for the legISla-
ture and the county offices. They will
be found worthy of careful reading by
the conscientious voter. The Democ-
racy'S legislative ticket is admitted,
even by the enemy, to be strong. All
tine names which appear on it are those
of good men, and when contraSted with
their competitors in each instance they
are the best. LOUIS FERGUSON, of the
First ward, is a skilled laborer, who,
without eXtrinSic assistance, has, by his
own eXertlonS, raised himself to posi-
ton of influence in the neighborhood
where he lives. He is honest, conSci-
entious, talks well, and understands
thoroughly the needs of his district.
Z. III. KELLY, of the Second ward. has Il

was member of the last house. and

the only Democrat seeking reelection.
