There is nothing about the republican city ticket to appeal in ant’ way to a democrat for support. The council nominees and the marshal have had an opportunity to display their wisdom about municipal affairs, and had the working majority to execute I the reforms about which they talked so loud before their election. Their reconi is a blank in bo W as economy and public business is concerned. Os course the republicans of the city will support their 'party nominees, they always do. and the democrats should do the same thing. This is not the year I to help the republicans rub it in on i the democrats who have a good working majority in every ward in the city. The nominees on the ; democratic ticket have the right to expect the full support of their partv. They are good, honest and reliable men, every one of them, and should be elected by their full party vote. PRECINCT MEETINGS.

The thirteen months old baby of Mr. and Mrs. John Burkhead met with a very serious accident last ‘ eve at their home. The little one was playing about the stove when, like all babes, just learning to walk, lost its balance and lurched over against the stove, cutting a large and ugly gash in the little onej head. Dr. Boyers was hastily summoned and dressed the wound, 1 it taking three stitches to close up the gash. There is nothing dangerous about the wound and the only inconvenience in the matter will be that the baby will have a very sore head for a few days. The Hanna Memorial Chair.
