of the ticket is composed of Edgar NJ Phelps for

Robert L. Forbes for Receiver of Taxes.
The chief complaint the Republicans make
against Mayor Dillon is that he is running the
affairs of New-Rochelle along Tammany lines and
that his administration is entirely a one man
power. The Republicans admit that the Mayor Is
as hospitable as one of the old kings of Ireland.
they say that he is also despotic as the late
Ameer of Afghanistan; that when any one In MS
domain displeases him he calls him in and cuts OH
his head Newspapers that criticise the Mayor
too severely are dealt with in similar fashion
The Mayor calls special meeting OF the Common

The Republicans say that the Mayor has spent
as much money as any one between New-ROchelle
and Cripple Greek. and New-Rochee ought to be
looking good. They say that he and his Board of
Aldermen paid 5000 FOR stone quarry which has
never been used, because the stone is not good.
and that they paid much for the asphalt paw
ing and many other public improvements.

Mayor Dillon who owns newspaper, which went
to the Republican side when the Mayor nomi-

whip Dillon and Democracy. Every week New
