CAMPAIGN FOR MAYOR.
GROWING INTEREST FELT IN THIS MOST
IMPORTANT QUESTION.

In spite of the opinion Of few that 1t is too
soon to canvass the question or a successor to
Mayor Van Wyck, this topic actually occupies
| the mind Of every practical politician in the
city. Various names being carefully con-
sidered by them. especially by the BOSSES Since
that is the case, why should not the people, the
masses of voters. who are certainly as deeply in
! terested in good government as any one. and all
the employees Of the city government and those
who hope to be under a new administration
take part in discussing the question?
At only two stages in a campaign do the peo-
pie at large have chance to affect result.
They can DO it at the very start. before eau
cuses and conventions meet-and that time is
now, so far as the next MayoraIty is concerned
and later, at the polls. At the polls it is
times impossible to MAKE good selection for
public office, all of the candidates being OBJ
jectonable. But if. as result of previous dis
cussion. all of the candidates are good We shall
get good government anyhow. no matter who is
elected.
Some of the active workers for various candi-
dates have recently come into The Tribune can
vass, and may not have noticed what has pre-
viously been said on one point. For the general
benefit, the need Of having all the votes signed
by different men is again pointed out. The Trib-
canvass is genuine effort to discover the
preferences of large number of residents to
the next Mayor. 1t is not scheme to sell
final summing up, it is desired to be able to say
that every one of the votes represents different
voter. TT means nothing at all to have twenty
five votes signed and cast by one manor, at
any rate it means only one man. But batch
of twenty-five votes cast by many different
voters a good deal. Batches of votes
signed by only one man cannot be counted.
One of the most prominent men in Jackson,
Mimi, banker who has read The Daily Trib-
une for thirty years sends ballot for Mr.. Elli-
son, owing to his interest in New-York City.
1t cannot be counted, because the voter is non
resident. but 1t may be mentioned
All names are omitted from the pub
Ifshed list except those for which at least
5 ballots have been east and those which
appear in the canvass for the first time.

Is more common than we may think if we define
giuttony as eating beyond the body's need Of sus-
tensnce and beyond the stomach's capacity for d.
gestion and assimilation Of food. That is fair
definition, and il fasteus the name glutton on
many person who would resent the term as an
usalt. The fact of this gluttouy is marked by its
consequences. The overloaded stomach becomes
diseased The popular term for the condition is
7wesk stomach. The "weakn stomach fails II,
furnishing adequate nutrition for the body, and
soon the weakness" spreads from the stomach 10
