O'Clock, an alarm of fire was turned In

GOOD Words tor q Candidate.


One candidate Is already clearly in
dicated by custom and precedent.
Thomas F. Austin has served one term
In the Assembly. He can talk when
1t Is needed, and does not pretend to
the gift of oratory, but he is a good
worker. We watched his course cri-
tically last winter, and found him
always In place in his committees or
on the floor of the House, alive in the
highest degree to the responsibilities
OF bis position, and always anxious to
most acceptably serve his constituents.
Custom and precedent give to a
member second term and Mr.. Austin
mas fully H. erited and should receive a
renom nation by scclamation.-Mitl.
