The whole contest in tomorrow’s elty election will center on the mayor- alty battle.

In the wards there will be sharply fought contests in the fifth and sixth The four lower wards are conceded to the republicans as in the past, but especially in the fifth will there be action.

The democrats are determined to stop the invasion of their precints at this salient as the republicans are also ! threatening to invade the sixth, which thus far they have failed to penetrate reyond the outer defenses. On the other hand the republicans are de- ermined to consolidate their gains of two years ago and Mayor Quigley is ven quoted as saving that he will rry the sixth tomorrow.
