At mass meeting held at the court house. in this city, on last Friday evening, 1t was decided to have primary election for the nomination of city officers. The primary was fixed for the 7th of March which will be next Satur- day. This action will give every Democrat, within the corpora ton, right to run for some, ,one of the offic es, and every Democratic voter the right to give expression to his choice by ballot. But. this being true, it is absolutely essential that great pains should be excised in selecting,,the city officers. No one should be chosen save men of busi- ess'abilityand known integrity, A city's prosperity depends greatly on the class of its officers.
