Adam Damn said: mir. Knox is
good man and might make as good
/ Mayor as Steinman, but he has not been
/ tried and Steinman has. He has shown
himself progressive and in favor OF I'M
provement, and / want to see the work
continue. have had to spend over $500
in improving the looks of my place. My
awning had to come down and put up
new one. / am glad of it now, and as
| look up and down the street and see how
much better it looks, am glad that we
had to take down the awnings and sorry
we did not have to do it years ago. IL
things keep on like this for couple OF
years we will have the most beautiful
city on the coast, and if Steinman is
! elected the work will not stop till it is i'm
| ished."
Colonel James McNasser said: "Why,
/ l am for Steinman, of course. He has
shown himself honest and fearless in the
discharge OF his duty. His personal
/ friends have met with no more favor at
| his hands than anybody else-all have
been treated alike. In two years more, if
/ he is reelected; he will make this beau
| tiful city, and the reproach cast on us by
| the rest of the State viii be thing OF the
/ past. His efforts and progressiveness
will give US reputation that Will be en-
! viable. We will have system of sewer
age, good levees, clear water and every
thing that we need for our prosperity. j
| have made a thorough canvass OF those
whom l meet. and | find that most OF
| them are for Steinman. look upon
| his election as certain"
81 am for Knox for Mayor" declared
/ Matt. Flynn, assistant foreman OF the
| foundry department at the railroad shops.
HE is a solid man, is we'll qualified Tor
the Office. and | believe has been free
from job6ery Of ali kinds. In my opinion
! he is the kind OF man we want. even II he
isn't all the time firing off skyrockets."
Il don't see why you should ask me
who 1 favor for Mayor" answered X. G.
Irvine, Il wasn't very backward about
making known my choice at the Demo-
cratic convention the other night. es,
! Pm for Steinman. He's given Sacra-
mento the liveliest hustle this year she
ever had, and it has done her good"
c. II. Gilman. the proprietor OF the Red
| House, was found holding down q boot
black stand and reading the RECORD
! UNION. Being told that about seven out
| OF every ten citizens interviewed on the
subject OF the Mayoralty, declined to COM
init themselves so early in the campaign,
Mr.. Gilman said:
'Well, Pm not afraid to say now who
is my choice. Pm for Ben Steinman.
He's made the best Mayor we ever had.
| There is plenty of push 10 him, and he is
| =
man that suits me-"
wv ny, Pm for Knox, of course" said
Assemblyman Anderson. He's not
! only the best man for the place. but he's
| the Republican nominee, and all things
being equal l favor the candidate of the
| party"
j. q. MARITIME of L. L. Lewis Il Co. said
| he believed that both nominees for Mayor
were honorable and progressive citizens,
and either would administer the laws to
The advantage of all. LAS to the selection
Of Trustees" said he, "what we want is
| board with progressive spirit. Sacra-
Inento in the past few years has made
wonderful strides in the line of Improve
ment, and should continue so. Party
politics should cut no figure in munich
| pal politics. Every voter should look
carefully over the ticket and select those
whom he thinks would best subserve the
interests of the city. There is plenty of
good material to select from among the
various nominees"
J. A. Green, druggist, had no prefer
| ence to express as to either the Mayor
atty or Trustee fight, but thought every
one should vote for men who would favor
! any public improvement which would
! advance the interests of the city. Pro-
| gressive men, no matter what their poll
| tics, are what is needed in city govern
ment.
II. G. May, produce merchant, said:
"While | am both a member OF the Citi
zens and Non-Partisans, in the matter
of selecting Trustees [ think everyone
should let their judgment overrule party
choice and select citizens for Trustees
who will continue the improvements al
ready under way. There are many good
citizens among the various candidates
nominated. In the selection of Trustees
think all should be property
7 7 L. rt,l SO l. Is
the candidates for Mayor. AS to Trustees
people should select irrespective of tick
] cts.
J. e. Mills-No, sir. When 1 am in
politics pll talk. My ballot is guaran-
iced to me secret.
William Schaw and William Ingram,
Jr.-We do not wish TO talk about it. We
viii vote as our judgment dictates, and
our votes are our private concern.
Lee Bell-Everything is coming our
way-for Steinman.
Captain Bradley-Steinman will give
us a hard rub. But it is a long time to
election. The Citizens convention put up
strong ticket and it will win. Mr.. Knox
is going to come out with flying colors.
| Nv belief is that Bart Cavanaugh put up
the ReorganiZed Democratic nomination.
He had a hand in it. L don't know what
I am now, Democrat or something else,
and that's the fact.
Captain Siddons-Don't know; am not
! in politics. Take no part; vote as l
please; that's all.
Tom Scott-Knox will be Mayor. The
| Republican ticket is well put up. When
! We'll ran, at first all the talk was W ell,
| but he was beaten. So now they talk
! Steinman, but the Republican ticket will
win, and you'll see it.
| T. NJ. Lindiey-I am for Knox. rve
nothing against Steinman. But Mr..
Knox pve known very many years. l
know the man through and through. He
will make good Mayor. AS to Trustees,
| | believe in ignoring tickets and picking
out the best aud most capable men.
w. ID. Comstock-I am for Knox. l
will have nothing more to do with the
| ReorganiZed Democrats after the other
nights performance. l went there as a
! Democrat, pure and simple, and not as
anything else. 1t was mortifying to see
| how things were run. MIR. Knox will
make good Mayor, and l think he will
| be elected.
John Domingos-Mr. Knox is good
man, but I'll vote for Steinman, because
! he's got what Sacramento needs-puSh
AS to the Trustees, there is a sorry lot
named; some good and strong men;
mostly a weak lot. The thing to do is to
pick out your man without any question
! as TO politics.
B. N. Bugbey-I am for Ben Steinman
| like Mr.. Knox; he is gentleman and
and a good man for the place. But L
think Steinman is doing well and we
shouldn't swap horses 10 mid-stream. 1
am for progress, because it is cheapest
and best for any community, and SO /
think we should keep Steinman in. As to
the Trustees. the duty OF the citizen is to
pick out intelligent men with no strings
or pulls on them; competent and clean
men, and that regardless of politics or
nominations. The people l talk with
