TonighPs the night when the law snd

Oouncil-selects the various elective
officers of the city government which
come under its jurisdiction. For
most of these Offices there Is no opposi.
ton. In the matter OF the selection OF

a contest. A number OF the members OF
the police force, 1t is said, are anxious
for the selection OF q member OF this
body aud are urging the claims OF GER
tain gentleman for the position. 1t Is
to be hoped that the present incumbent
Mr.. Thos. A. Fisher-Will stand for

sion that he has as much right to be
elected q police commissioner while
boarding temporarily out OF his ward
In which he expects to build home and

have to vote on the election OF his sue
cessor and WHO are living out of the wards

the old man will be relegsted to the

not have anywhere to 90 or no one TO
look to for support. Then. again, the
aldermen select successor to Capt

chosen in the interest OF the whole
