The In- dependents consist of Messrs. Henry VonGlahn of the Third Ward, and H. Vollers and John Dawson in the Fourth ward. These three gentlemen are truly representative property holders and business men, and are thorougly iden tified with the interests of onr city. The gentlemen who represent the Re publican party are Messrs. F. W. Fos ter, Jas. A. Lowery, Jos. C. Hill and Rev. I. W. KiDg, all good men and property holders. Colonel Foster is a very large real cstato owner. Messrs. C. 1). -Myers, L. II. Bowdcn and Dr. H. G. Fianner, are all first class business mon, and property holders. It will be seen that the Independents have the balance ot power on the Board. This is as it should be, the city ought not to be run -out of politics entirely; business men should conduct the aflairs of the city just as they would their own private business, and we be lieve it will be done. The future course of these ccntlcmcu will show whether they w ill run the city in the interest f all its citizens or in the interest of a party or clique. We know Mayor Daw son too w ell to believe that he will ever belong to any particular ring.
