Tammany candidate. for the place made vacant by
Colonel Fellows's resignation. AS Colonel Fellows
had carried tina district for Tanmany by a larger
plurality than that given In any of the other city

enthusiasm of young man. and the careful
methods of Older pcliticiln. He canvassed his
district from one end 10 the other. and put up

While he is thus discussing the issues which
