Moore has been preparing the election material the past week and now ha the official November ballots In . the hands ot the printer and they will ,hortly be ready for distribution. On the ballots there are almost as many measures to vote on as there are offices to fill.

T. Ford, The other offices including mayor will have to be filled by the voters writing in the name of their choice as can didate, and no doubt the election boards will have many names to record, but if the voters haven't honestly decided upon a capaole person for those places they .should leave the spaces blank and not worry the election boards with the work of recording every Tom, Dick and Harry's name. As far as local politics are con cerned it can be said that all Is quiet and serene. " The councilmen and mayor that are in want to get out and seemingly no battle Is made by those that are out trying to get in. By repeated, requests of a goodly number of voters in the third war, C. J. Crook, a well known business man, concluded to lacrifice himself on the altar of civic duty and has publicly an nounced his candidacy. ' Dame rumor has it that Walter Muir and Floyd D. Moore, will re ceive many votes from their friends for the postion of mayor, jet neither of these two men cared enough for the office to seek it. Both have had experience as coun cilmen and their business training would fit them in every way for successfully and satisfactorily lilling the position; but it is a question as to whether they would accept the position If elected. ocietv (Additional Society from Page 3.)
