Tomorrow they will give their decision. Despite party pa pers' dwiddle-dwaddlo. which with the honest voter counts for nought, despite the extra gush and extra copies of the Press sent out and distributed by loaders of "the ring." whose doom is sealed, they cannot change results materially. It looks as though Republicans will sup port the following candidates: For bur gess. James Lewis, who should re ceive their whole support. For town council, Thus. E. Davis and W. J. Eek ert are favorably mentioned. For jus tice of the peace, citizens feel that Thomas A. Buckley should bo re-elected, being the fittest candidate. For tax collector. A. A. Bachman. whom the "Citizens" should have endorsed, will be strongly supported by the Republicans. For school directors, Republicans believe that William Johnson, Benjamin Ruto and James Crawford are by far their choice. William E. Martin, for auditor, will receive tlieir support, being a cap able and proper man in every respect for the position. This is a conservative view and one shared by a large portion of the better class of Republicans, and with no ill-will toward any other candidates, tin- needs of our borough only being kept in view. The result will show how the "voters look to their best in ton A Life-Long but Progressive I 'publican. A. Oswald has just returned from Philadelphia with a full new !inefdi'\ goods and notions.
