Tomorrow the voters of Atlanta will be called npon to select candidates for Mayor .and Aldermen for the ensuing year. Sines both branches of the Democracy have pledged themselves to support whoever may be nom inated, tbe selections of to-morrow will be equivalent to an election, there being no sort of possibility of the Radicals carrying tbe city, and sn independent ticket is entirely ont of the question. In view, then, of this fact, we trust that every Democrat in Atlanta will go to the polls lo-morrow and vote for his choice for city officers. We do not hesitite for sn instant to express the hope that Judge Collier will obtain the nomination for Mayor, and we urge our readers, one and all, to vote for him. While we very cheerfully admit that Col. Bpcn. err is a man of ability,and a sonnd Democrat; and whilo we believe that if elected he will endeavor to perforin his official duties to tbe satisfaction of the people, we nevertheless hold that, as between him and Jndge Collier, we fe-l greater confidence in the ability of the newspaper brethren in the State a great wrong.
