CORBETT (To be Labor Candidate for | Mayor at Municipal | Elections. | All is not so quiet in civic circles {as many people imagine. There is not ja great deal of loud talking, but | there is a deep undercurrent that {may ere long burst out. Just now, all |attention centers upon the mayoralty. When Mayor Nickle announced his in- tention not to run for the office, he | apparently put everybody up. in the air, but the Independent Labor Party, This party purposes having a candi- date for mayor as well as candidates for alderman in every ward. On Sat- urday evening, the civic election committee composed of the presi- dent, Willlam Fleet, and two mem- bers, waited upon ex-alderman §. S. Corbett, to tender him the nomina- tion for mayor. Mr. Corbett took the | matter under consideration for a few days, as he did not feel prepared to give a definite answer on such shor: notice. Aldermen are all at sea since the ward redistribution took place, and few appear to be certain as to wheth- er they will run. Ald. W. A. Twigg |says he will not run, He represents Victoria ward, but is now a resident {of Sydenham ward. Willlam Patter- j som, another labor alderman, says he | will not run again. The retail merchants are strongly i represented already and are deter- {mined to re-elect their men again. | Nomination day, however, is expected to bring about some surprises. Se ------ Mayor Nickle Is Considering A Second Term On Monday morning Mayor Nie- kle was waited upon by a deputation from the Retail Merchants' "Associa tion and urged to reconsider his re- cent decision and to offer himself as a candidate for the mayoralty for a second term. Another deputation waited upon Mr. Nickle during the af- ternoon with the same request, The mayor promised, td take their re- quests into his serious consideration. He preferred to retire from munici- | pal life, he said, but was very much touched by the desire of so many peo- ple that he offer himself for another year of service. The mayor will like- ly make a definite announcement on Tuesday morning. THE WORK OF THE CHURCH Was Clearly Set Forth by the Rev. Ernest Thomas Last Night.
