ple of th(E city will remember, even
if he has forgotten, that there was no
more preminent figure on the political
horizon during Stuart's administration
than that of David Martin. Martin
was the “peeriess leader” of that day.
With the ald of Charles A. Porter he
had built up & machine that was as
fnvincible, as corrupt and almost as
insatiable in its greed as was the
Durham-McNichol machine at the ze
pith of its power. And the Martin
machine depended for Its existence
upon the patronage of the Stuart ad:
ministration
The municipal appointments under
Mayor Stuart were dictated by David
Martin. Every policeman snd fireman
aud other dependent on the city's
bounty held his place subject W Mar
tin's approval. And Just as Israel W
Durham later held the reins of power
apd threw the contract plums to his
partuer, James P. McNichol. so Martin
in Stuart's day presided over the des
tinles of the machine and threw the
contract plums to his political partuer,
Charles A. Porter
These things are true. The voters of
