RoBERT G. HARTMAN THE MAN.

City Solicitor Robert G. Harman, who
has been nominated for a second term
by the Democratic party, needs no rec
ommendation other than his official
record during the past two years. The
efficiency Of his administration Of the
solicitors office has resulted in pre-
venting the loss to the city OF many
thousands OF dollars by litigation, and
continuance Of his services will mean
that the municipal treasury will be pro
tected from damage-claim raids for at
least two years to come. Further than
that, he has been unusually successful
in the prosecution of criminals in the
Municipal Court, and the several city
departments never had better ad-
wiser.
Henry c. Conrad is his Republican
opponent. He has asplred to many Of
fees, run for some, but has invariably
suffered defeat. His character is above
reproach, but his desertion of the regu-
lar Republicans after they had given
him an opportunity to defeat John
Stats for county comptroller has turn
ed against him many Of his old pollti-
cal friends and supporters. He has
been for many months openly affiliat-
ing with and supporting J. Edward Ad-
dicks in his political pretensions, and
this OF itself should insure his defeat
Mr. Harman will be the highest man
on the Democratic ticket, and the vote
polled for Mr.. Conrad will be corre-
spondingly lower than that of his asso-
ciates on the Republican ticket.
