hcan city convention.
SEATTLE, Feb. %. 1894.
To TIE Error: As one who signed the
call for . municipal league wish to say
to my friends. through the columns Of
your paper, that when did so it was
with the understanding that no nomina-
tons should be male by the league untit
after the Republican and Democratic
parties had made their nominations. and
In the event of the old parties making
good nominations the league should in
dorse the best men from each ticket. ar in
case good men could not he found on either
ticket then place the names Of new men
on the citizens ticket
have always been 3 Republican, and
now that an exceptionally strong ticket.
from top to bottom. has been nominated
by that party l see no reason why tho
citizens ticket should remain in the field
to endanger the success of the Republican
ticket. /, for one. will not allow myself
to assist. directly or indirectly. in con-
tinuing in power the present corrupt and
disgraceful ring of treasury hooters. and
am convinced that the only effect the citi-
zens' ticket will have will be to assist in
keeping the Democrats in power.
