 T believe that Colonel Altman will win the race for Alderman in the sixth ward by a vote of two to one. During the past week, on account of the illness of Colonel Altman, I have made canvas of the ward, and have talked ito more than one hundred voters, and of this number Colonel Altman will get more than 80 per cent.
 Aside from supporting Colonel Altman on account of personal relations he being my neighbor, am for him for the reason that he has made a most efficient Alderman. He has supported every appropriation for the public schools made by the board, and has aided in making nine-month term in the public schools
