PattIson Reform M

PRttison Reform Movement Contagious.
Laying aside all political feelings, the
city's weekly paper the County Herald,
says to day:
AS time draws apacs there is grow.
ing conviction that a citizens ticket
should be placed In the field at the next
election for mayor. This feeling Is
becoming intensified by the needs Of the
city A ticket Of this sort would draw
the best element from both parties and
give our city term Of nnexsmpled
good government.
This excellent suggestion Is but an
expression Of the sentiment that has
existed all over town for months. IL
successful business men, and men who
have more than a few evening hours a
month TO devote to the city's interests
can be induced to stoop a little, as ex
Governor Pattison has done In Philadel-
phla, and remembering that the city'a
interests through these panic times are at
stake, accept a place on the citizens
ticket, they would meet with little, If
any opposition.
