POLITICAL POINTS

Hanecy for Mayor of Chicago has met
with the cordial and hearty support
OF all elements of Chicago citizenship.
ALI, factions of. the Republicans are
united in the effort to bring success
and victory to the party's splendid
! nominees. Judge Hanecy himself has
gone into the contest with am earnest
ness and ability seldom equaled in
political contest. He has openly
charged the Harrison administration
with being dishonesty extravagant
with the peoples money-fostering
and encouraging all manner of vice
and crime-and prostituting public
| office to the graft of his henchmen and
hangers-on. .
The people of Chicago, regardless of
party who desire to see a change in
lsthe affairs Of the city, should not hest
tate to vote for Judge Hanecy and the
Republican ticket on the End day of
April. His election will mean a gene
raj reform in the city administration.
Thugs, robbers and hold-up men
will be vigorously prosecuted and Sc
verely punished and the lives and
property of the people will be fully
protected tz .....- ~
The police force will cease to be an
adjunct to a political machine, obey
ing at all times, the behests of the
party boss.
Chicago streets will be made clean
and passable that the people may use
them at all times with perfect safety.
The traction question will be set
tied with absolute fairness to the
street car companies and the people
of the entire city. n
Civil service will be earnestly and
legally enforced and those who may
be entitled to appointment or promo
ton to public positions will have no
cause whatever for complaint
These are few of the many re-
forms which Judge HanecyIs election
will give to the people of Chicago,
and the APPEAL feels perfectly con-
fident that all good citizens will line
up on election day in favor of a de-
cent, orderly and honest administra-
ton of the affairs Of Chicago.
The town of Lake Republican con-
ventlon last week nominated for con-
stable Mr.. James H.. Porter, who is
Well-known in Chicago. The APPEAL
urges upon every Afro-American in
that town to vote for Mr.. Porter and
thereby insure his election-he is de-
serving of the honor.
The South town Republican con-
vention last Monday, evening did we'll
in nominating Messrs. Robert Will
liams and James O., Grant for consta-
bles. These two well-known Afro
Americans have always been earnest
and tireless workers. on behalf Of the
Republican party, and they justly
merit this recognition. The election
OF these gentlemen together with that
of the entire Republican ticket can
only be accomplished by persistent
work. Every Republican of the South
town should labor continuously for
the success of the whole ticket.
The Republican convention of the
South town last Monday evening
nominated a splendid ticket and adopt
ed good platform favoring the aboli-
ton OF township government. The
nominees are as follows:
A. J. Pflaum for Assessor.
VIM. j. Lawler for Collector.
Hugh Norris for Supervisor.
Willis v. Jefferson for Clerk
These gentlemen are we'll known
and popular in the town and should
receive the hearty support of every
voter who. favors an honest and eco
nomical administration of town at
fairs. Mr.. Jefferson is an Afro-Ameri-
can ct the Secon ward and is q popu-
lar and able young man.
The filthy and impossible condi-
ton of Chicago's streets is disgrace
to the Harrison gang now in Office,
and is only equaled by themismanage-
ment of affairs in the city hall.
Mr.. B. F. Mosely, the Republican.
nominee for Supervisor in the town of
Lake, is making an able and earnest
canvass and says that if his Demo
cratic opponent wins, he will certainly
know that he has been in shot fight .
Vote for Mosely!
Ex-C County Commissioner e. H.
Wright is a member of the Citizens
Advisory Republican Committee and
with all other good Republicans is in
line for the city ticket.

The fearful explosion in the Dore-
mus laundry on the west side, which
resulted in the death of nine persons
last Monday, is another instance Of
neglect of duty on the part of one of
Carter Harrison's officers. It is said
