settled is whether the terms
which the land where the present depot
is located was ceded to the railroad
company, would be violated by chang

willingness to enter the proposed depot
at the latter place.
The Bee said in its last Sunday's
issue that the citizens of the west end
of the Seventh ward had turned John
C. Thompson down. The assertion is
totally and wholly false. The editor
of this paper expects the opposition of
thelfoeand of the Roman Catholics,
and he, at the same time, expects the
aid of the Protestants who believe In
purity and honesty in politics, and also
the support of the Republicans who
have been elected to positions in spite
of the opposition of the Bee, and the
last named classes are in the majority
in the Seventh ward. However,should
our neighbors and friends prefer any
other man who is in the field and did
eventually turn us down, It would be In
favor of an A. P. A., for every man
mentioned for the council from that
ward, with one exception, a member of
that order, and we are free to say that
we would as soon see any one of them
elected as to be the nominee.

resolution offered by a letter which he
