interest It heart, they vote for ]. C.. Smith
for City Sergeant.
His record as Sergeant is excellent as
Judge Samuel c. Witt, who has had tho
best opportunity of knowing, will testify.
1t is a matter generally known that,
his means considered, no citizen has con-
trlbuted more literally than he to the
success Of the Democratic party. In the
trying times of military supremacy in
the city, he contended manfully and
strenuously with the authorities for the
interest and welfare of the people. Tenn
perate in his habits to the point of abb
stemiousness, noted for his open-handed
charity, he merits the appreciation of the
people.

a FLAT CONTRADICTION,
Editor of The Times:

Editor of The Times:
am told that Captain Carlton Nc
Carthy, in one of his speeches Saturday
night, said he had been informed by Al
derman Bahen that had told the Alder
man that had spent money in the pres
ent campaign and intended to spend more.
think it proper to say that !! did not
say this or anything like it to Alderman
Bahen. Furthermore. I have seen the
Alderman to-day and he tells me that he
made no such statement to Mr.. Nc
Carthy and gave him no pretext for his
assertion. / did tell Alderman Bahen
that l.. as a citizen. was taking some in
terest in this campaign, as all other citl-
zens should do but the matter Of spend
ing money was not mentioned. His re-
collection of the conversation accords
with mine and he tells me that he made
no such statement as he is reported by
Mr.. Mccarthy to have made. This
seems to show that Mr.. McCarthy's state
ment in this matter is as absolutely de-
void of foundation and. untrue, as arc
many of his other assertions regarding US
and our interests. 5
