Urges He-Election of Democrats nnd
Defeat of Costello.
Congressman J. Washington Logue nnd
Michael Donohoo have been Indorsed for

In a statement urging their re-election,
uips the candldncv of Peter E Costello,
Republican nominee from the district now
represented by Mr. Donohoe.
Mayor Blnnkenburg emphasized the
benefit which the city has dcilved during
the tHrms of the Democratic vr.ombors,
especially the J3.T00.000 appropriation for
the Delaware River, which was secured
during Mr Donohoe's three yeais' mem
bership In the six enrs previous, the
statemont says, the total appropriation
was only $ 1,360.000
"Today we have a Drmocintlo Adminis
tration at Washington, u Democratic Con
gress, and in all likelihood, while thero
may be considerable changes In the pres
ent majority in tho House and Senate,
the whole Administration will continue
Democratic for tvo years to come," the
statement continues. "What can Phila
delphia expect If all her Congretsmen are
Republicans, mid the Influence that has
been wielded by the two Democratic mem
bers from Philadelphia In the last Con-gret-s.
Is wiped out?
"Petti E. Costello, the opponent nomi
nated by the Organization against Mr.
Donohoe, has been one of the bitter oppo
nents of good municipal goernment ever
since ho his been In Councils, and he
has not failed to look out fur his own
