"When the race for mayoralty IS
brought down To race between =. H.
Morehead and Judge Magotfin, the

Mr. Morehead. said republ can TO
Round About today. MANY democrats
have been try NJ for long lime 10 geb
MIR. Morehead before the Poop for
mayor and now they have a good
chance. The republicans recognize
MIR. Morehead's ability and know that
if he is mayor he will be responslb' e
for the city adm nj distraction for the next
TWO years, aud [ believe d majority OF
the republicans will give him trial
and make no fight against MIN: VA
the her hand If Judge Magofhn Is put
up by the democrats for mayor, the
republicans will place Charley Slack In
TIE field aud Mr.. Slack can b at him.
I know Mr. Slack does not want the
office and h is business would suffer II
he shOu d accept the republican noin!-
nation. but if Judge Magoftn Is run 10y
the democrats, then The repuol cans
will induce Mr. Slack 10 run, and with
the registered.voters and the Austral-
ian ballot L feel contident that Mr..
Slack can show Judge MagOffin clean
pair of he Is
Mr. Morehead is my preference for
mayor among the democrats" Sd d an
other prominent repu blican this morn
ing. Il have always recognized M T..
| Morehead as being the head and tront
| Of the democratic party In FL taSo.
While he never comes forward himself
! he always has a following woo get out
and do his bidding. There is no doubt
of b 5 business and executive ability
and | think it would BE- d good idea for
the r. publicans to let the election go
| by def aut as far as the mayor is con-
| cerned. if Mr.. Moreheat Is placed at
the head of the ticket. If Judge
Magoffin is placed at the head OF the
dem ocratjc ticket l am in Iavor of a

quarters of an hour he showed up and
excused him self by saying he was out
Entertaining friend and could not at
tend to the business at hand sooner. L
was consjdt rAbly put out by the delay

pleasure before business"
