' TTthe Editor of The Journal la common with almfiit trery decent 'Democrat in the city and I ; should Judge about half of the Republican) I want to seek Dr. Lane reelected M mayor, and I have been much disgusted with the action of Mr. Thomas aa chairman of the central committee In trying to shore 1 Dr. Lane out of his way and get the nomination himself. As a prirate in the vranks of. the Democratic party I do not like to see it "worked" in that, way and now that Mr. Thomas says he wants to try con clusions with Dr. Lane I propose that we glre him a chance. In having his najna printed on the ballot he has thel best of it by about fire to one. but I believe there is enthusiasm enough in the party for the clean and fearless administration we have.had to overcome that and more, too. I believe that the hon est and intelligent Democrats In the city, who want good government and know It when, they see It, outnumber in at least that proportion the noisy clique of disappointed Job hunters and the bunch of ."open town", men who are gulling Thonias with promises of their support, and? I say let's try it "on. Let every Democrat who wants to put the party on record for the right thing go to the polls on Satur day, write Dr. Lane's name in the blank place on the ticket and make an X before it. -( : -The aueatlo'n here la a larger one than Dr. Lane's success He caij.be elected as an Independent as well as he can. as a Democratic candidate, it is the question whether the Democratic party is to be ruled by the baser orvhetter element, by spollshunters and friends of lawlessness .'and vice or by the decent citizens who feel honored by the name of Democrat and who try to do honor to the name.' . . ..
