continues generally weak. Trading,
however. was not very active as buy
ers refused to take hold even Mt the
concessions. Tin ruled rather easier,
owing to large receipts and in SYM
pathy with London ndvlces. closing
easy at $2s S502S so. Pig iron warrants
were weak and nomlnally quoted at
SIS 90. Northern No. foundry was
RomInally unchanged at S2l 00D22 90,
but very weak at that, Lake copper
continues dun at SIG S1lk, Lead and
spelter were unsettled but not quotnbly
lower, closing dull at 50 97&d4 021z and
81 50Q4 80. respectively. The brokers'
price for lead was So 50, and for copper
SIG 70.

New-York tribune., 1900-12-22
MORE VOTES WANTED.
THOUSANDS OF TRIBUNE READERS YET
TO BE HEARD FROM IN THE
MAYORALTY CANVASS.

r,rpo.ie the hest man to nominate for the next
Mayor Of New-York? over sixteen thousand
neopIA have already sent to The Tribune replies
to that question, and the replies are tabulated
below.
Several times that number among readers OF
the paper have not yet answered 1t is hoped
that all will yet take part in this friendly and
useful canvass The columns of The Tribune
are open both to votes and TO expressions OF
opinion in brief and pointed letters.
A very few readers have written TO the IT'D
une suggesting that the time is not yet ripe TOT
a decision as to the nomination. Nevertheless,
discussion as to the qualifications Of men avail
able for the place is entirely in order The party
organizations are watching The Tribune's can
vass with interest, and public opinion can make
itself felt now better than at any other time
No one of the people voted for below is a can
didate for the nomination on his own motion or
in any proper sense; but all of them are persons
thought fit to be candidates by some OF their
fellow citizens. Whether men desire to be can
didates or not is not to the purpose. What The
Tribune is trying to do is TO help NEWCOMERS
find out what men are considered by some part
of the community eligible for the nomination.
and why.
few words as to second choice votes: 1t
is greatly desired that every voter shall state
his second choice as we'll his first There
is much in this idea which the public does not
yet fully appreciate first choice" repre-
sents to a certain extent strong feeling Of per-
sonal attachment TO so-called candidate as
well as the voters judgment in the matter. A
second choice" might almost be said to show
only dsinterested judgment as to who is really
a good man for the Office. If any voter caring
little for persons but anxious for good Mayor
were to make up his mind from the figures be-
lew, would he not consider the second column of
figures as well as the first?
Voters who want to win second choice votes
for their own first preference should themselves
do other candidates the compliment of second
choice.
The second choice system is considered likely
to lead to better nominations by all political par
ties tend to promote a more friendly competition
at the polls, give every voter greater freedom of
choice without the loss of his vote, and enable
each Of the parties TO maintain its independent
organization and at the same time unite in the
final selection of public officers. And certainly
in The Tribune's canvass it will lead to better
comprehension OF the most taking nomination
All names nre now omitted from the pub-
Iished list except those for which at least
3 ballots have been cnst and those which
appear in the canvass for the first time
complete record will be kept, however, and
all names will he Eazetted as soon as they
have received ballots.
