DECEMBER 10. ° i i | HE WRITES THAT HE IS NOT | A CANDIDATE. © | Talks Very Hotly About the Men | of + the Political Parties-- Has Secured a Man to Run as An Independent Labor Candidate. The following statement was made by William Kelly in writing to-day : "Not with the idea of finding a soft spot to 'lie down' on, but with the ture decision of the judge, who would finally decide the matter before us, and being aware what a 'good card' the assertion, 'He cannot," aec- dording to the" decision dof Ludge Price, take the seat if elected," woul be, we decided not to stand on 'a technicality." Within fifteen minutes after this decision was arrived at, we were able to locate a gentleman who, every way considered, is qualihed, with the assistance of the workingmen, .and | the independent electors of Kingston, to defeat both Mayor Mowat, and | Ald.. Hoag who, undoubtedly, are the announced. candidates of the two litical rties whose pernicious in- fluence * has been a bave, and a men- ace to our civie progress, their assur- ance, dissembling, and braggadocia, notwithstanding. "Already a caucus has been held, my resignation accepted, and instruc tions given the special committee to secure a candidate. The gentleman ve- ferred to has been presented with a well signed requisition. After carefully discussing the various points involved, and with a keen knowledge of the herculeant' task assigned him, knowing only too well the various tactics that will be resorted to by the enemy, he has expressed the willingness, even at this late date, to accede to such a spontancous, and genuine request, up- on receiving the immediate endorsa- tion of the trades council, and the, various unions, coupled with the sup- port of all independent electors, who will support : the progress and = pros- perity of Kingston, rather than the dictates of the leaders. of two well: trained camps, who care for nothing but their own selfish ends, and who have made Kingston, commercially, and otherwise a byword and a re po- proach - by their senseless party feuds, "As for myself, 1 shall bring every honorable influence possible to the support of the independent labor can: didate, just the same as though I were in his position, and at the very first. opportunity I shall give eertain individuals whom I can only charac terize as a low type of political trick- ster, a run for his money, "A special meeting of the trades council has been called for to-night, to officially endorse these recommend. ations of the special committee of management." ------ PERSONAL MENTION. i Movements Of The People--What They Are Saying And Doing.
