WE SHOULD ALL WORK For the improvement of Phila delphia street from Jersey street to the wnter front. I'or it 500-foot dock or n larger one tit the foot of Philadelphia street. For the enforcement of the city limits of St. Johns. For the elimination of personal nnimosities ami spile work in our municipal life. t The fact of the matter is all the citizens on the different tickets are our own icopIe. There is very little difference in the men. Some may curl their hair a little tighter limit the others, may lie a little longer or shorter, may hear down a little heavier 011 the wchrliini; machine, but they are all working lor the same object the betterment and advancement of bt. Johns. Some one who, perhaps, thinks it smart to enter the lawn of their neighbors or other people and pilfer lite shrubbery, roses, Mowers and other plants urowiiiL' therein, will come to urief some of these fine nights il he or they do not desist. 1 here have heen numerous com plaints made to this ollice and the citizens who have heen visited tie aarc nicy will treat the next ier- son Irespassinir to n tiood load of shot. With last week's issue Timothy llrownhill closed his connection wmi uie J leaver Mate Herald as editor and manager. Mr. llrowu hill has made a pronounced success with the Herald. His voice was always heard on the side of tight, the side of good, clean government and It made no diireieiice to him whether it was the popular side or ll lie stood alone. Ue was 11 strong liiliueiice lor good in the state and especially in his own community. We do not know what business Mr. llrownhill will engage in at McMiuuvillc, hut there are tliotis- amis who win gladly join with us in wishing him unbounded success and all the pleasure that comes to the deserving in his new location. Now that the hall is opened anil candidates nie in the Held, let us light for our choice with all the energy we possess, and when the Imttlu is over, let us as good citiens give the victor, dining his term of ollice the most heaity support of which we me eatable. It is 11 wtoug idea that some ttcoplc ms suss that ll their choice is not elect ed they will make the winner all the trouble and opposition they can While he is in ollice. It shall be the policy of this paper to work for the election of the men we think hast fitted for the position, not be cause they are on one certain ticket, aim 11 tue man we wink lor is defeated and the woist enemy we have in town, and we think we have some, is elected in his place, tue man elected will lecetve as honest, earnest and faithful support during his term of ollice as would the man of our choice. We will criticise his work where we think he is wioug, just the same as we would the man we vote for, and we shall probe any good woik he accompiiMics just as Highly as we would the man we stiive to elect. 1 his we believe is the only couise of true citizenship. It is the only way to get the best service out of our public oflicers. -f 1). C. KOCH-US SIM'S CITY. 1). C.
