PETITION IS BEING CIRCULATED Commission Form Of Government Or Reduction Of Membership Of Council Favored By Him. A petition to William Andresen, president of the City Council, that be become a candidate for Mayor was circulated Monday, and many signa tures were obtained. Mr. Andresen, when told that the petition was being circulated for signatures, declared that he had nothing to say on the subject. Friends, however, said that he probably would make a definite announcement in a few days. Mr. Andresen has a large follow ing, and it is generally conceded that he would make an excellent mayor. He has served six years as a mem ber of the council, and announced last week that he would not be a candi date for reelection. Mr. Andresen also declared in favor of a commission form of government for the city, and said if this could not be obtained he favored a reduction of the member ship of the City Council. He thinks that five councilman could attend to the affairs of the city better than nine. "The only objection I can see to a commission form of government," de clared Mr. Andreben, "is the possi bility of unreliable men being elected. With reliable men in charge there is no question that it would be far su perior to the present form of govern ment, although the present council has accomplished fine results." Mr. Andresen has many friends, and, If be ecldes to enter the race for Mayor he will be a hard man to beat. His record as a councilman Is one of the best of any man who ever held the office. He thoroughly nn derstands city affairs, is conscientious and faithful, and has always looked out for the city's interests.
