IsIDoR sTRAUs THE MAN.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: In sending you the inclosed coupon indi-
eating my first and second choice for Mayor OF
New-Yorlz, permit me TO say word. in addition
TO what has already appeared in your columns. con-
ce-ning the fitness OF Isidor Straus for the Office
While Seth Low is undoubtedly man Of sterling
worth, he is my mind, hardly the ideal man
for the responsible position Of Mayer OF New-York
for the reason that his experience. his education.
the environment in which he has lived. and doubt
less also his innate tendencies, not such as to
fit him for a position which requires not only tact
and education. but also business experience. hnan-
cial experience and executive ability as pertaining
TO business life OF a high order
I can think If in greater New-York who
is better equipped to fill this office than Isidor
Straus, whom il is my good fortune to know per-
sonally. Possessing high degree of intellectual
attainments. a business and 1nancier. whose
invariable success atests his keenness and abity.
he at the same time has the welfare OF the COM
munity at heart, and many journeys through Ike
have been made easier by his unobtrustve hand
such man, with astuteness which would
prevent imposition, a kindness which would reach
out TO the unfortunate in city. and character
and courage as a safeguard against political
pressure. is ideal candidate for Mayor OF New
York. NJ T. NJ

of the sentiment in the 9th have come to the de-
