PLAINTIVE APPEALS


Yesterday was circular day in politi-
cal circles Circulars were gotten out
by James Heavyweight MeIlen, the
democratic city committee, a committee
lpurporting to represent organized labor,
and by A. A. Rheutan and friends of
his.
The democratic circular is signed by
John H. Meagher, Daniel r. Rourke and
Patrick j. Judge. The alleged labor"
circular, which represents the labor
organizations about as much as can
! does a street car, is a Mellen circular,
and says lots Of pretty things about our
James. 1t is issued from the steam fit
ters and is signed by J. 3. Lamothe,
w. S. Chase, Michael r. Garrett, Mar
Gus NJ. Putnam, Eben NJ. G.. Davis,
Charles F. Tew, John II. c. Callaghan,
John p. Cummings, Edward Parrish,
NJ D. Holmes, n. Smith, w. b. James,
L. LOBBY, John r. Drohan and James
G. Lamothe.
One Of the circulars issued for Mr..
Rheutan is signed by the following
who are associated with him in the en-
velope manufacture: H. p Canavan,
f. f. Flagg, John O'Connor, P. II.
Beahn, John Kennedy, O. B. Mitchell,
w. p. Tremblay Eugene Brown, James
MARCEL j. w. Wood K. A. Anderson,
w. W. Kicker, r. j. Lindley, l.. r. Jep-
son, r. c. Mcneil, John Briefly, Will
liam Shea, j. II. Brosnihan, e. j. Lynch
f. p. Goddard, Frank Farrell, C. r.

d. Mulocl, C. c. Wilson, Il. II. James,
c. J. Mccain, p. J. Cullen, +. ]. Cul-
len, ]. e. Donahue, e. j. Mcmahon
James O'Neill, j. S. Kenney.
Another circular issued in Mr.. Rheu-
tan's interests pictures him in glowing
colors Yesterday, posters bearing his
picture and a solicitation for voters
were posted about the city.
Circulars have also been issued by
Thomas Dean, candidate for the com
mon council in ward 4.
The political situation remained prac-
ttcally unchanged yesterday, and the
candidates, with their fences all mend
ed, simply awaited developments
ChurchilPS chances remain about the
same, and a conservative estimate pIac-
ed Mayor Dodge's majority at 1900 last
night
! DR., Barrett is sure of election. The
chances of Carberry and O'Connell are
good, and Lichtenfels' friends are hus-
Ting to get out a good vote for him
/ Mellen's chances are not improving
and his defeat is likely by a small mar
gin. Rheutan is Sill a comparatively pn-
known quantity. and his chances OF
/ victory or defeat are about even. The
straight republican candidates feel safe
and g. canvass of the wards shows this
feeling to be based upon substantial
proof Of support
Soth the republican and democratic
I city committees held short meeting!
last evening, and made further ar
rangements for getting out the vote
on election day. The republican rally
ing committees have met with much
success in their work thus far, anc
favorable reports were received from
each ward at the meeting last night.
In order that there may be no con-
fusion Tuesday it should be borne in
mind by voters that John Gray on the
democratic aldermanic ticket, is not
i Arthur +. Gray, who is a republican
and is not a candidate for any office.
Tomorrow bids fair to be a busy day
in political circles. The Haragari
and the Turner'S will meet and will
doubtless endorse the candidacy Of Mr..
Lichtenfels. Mellen will hold his usual
''vesper'' service; there will be the hot
test kind of a time at the meeting of
the representatives of the labor organ
izations to be held in labor headquar-
! tiers; and there will be other meetings
and -togethers" in preparation for
| Tuesday.
! George W. B. Sisson, whose name has
been mentioned as a candidate for the
| office Of assessor, wishes it distinctly
understood that he is not a candidate
for the office, and will not allow the use
Of his name under any consideration.
