When Mr.. Moore concluded hi:
remarks the mayor did not come
forward to reply, and Ed O'Brien,
seeking aldermanic honora, was
called and made a short address.
He asks for the support of the vot.
ers. The people need good, ener.
getic aldermen, who will look after
their interests in the Fourth. A
man who will be their servant and
not their king.
Mr.. J. K. Downs followed and
said Mr.. O'Brien had stated the
matter truly in saying the Fourth
ward needs energetic men in the
council. He was a candidate and
asked the support of the people. AT
first he did not want the office, bat
his friends insisted upon his an.
nouncing, and since he was in the
race he wanted the office worse than
he ever wanted anything in his lie.
He admonished the people to choose
man that is honest and conscien'
tious, rather than one of great
ability.
j. II. Pearson is candidate for
the same office. He is laborng
man and is running in the interest
of the laboring men. He asks the
support of every voter.
