WANTED— A MAN FOR MAYOR

people are beginning to
ask the question, but no one seems
able to answer it. It occurs to
the 'Telegram to put it up to the
people.”
This applies equally as
appropriately to Cottage Grove.
There was never a time in our
whole municipal history when the
need was so great, so pressing, so
seemingly difficult of solution.
The man should be one that
the people know or that enough
of them know to vouch for.

and before
every other consideration, he
should be a man of character.
This does not need to imply that
he should be an active member of
a church or a faddist or specialist
in any of the great questions
which have lately been up for
public consideration.
On the
other hand, the fact that he is a
man of good moral character
should not be regarded as a fatal
defect or an element that would
hamstring him in his race for pub
lic favor. But what is wanted is
a man, a real human man, with
some little public experience if we
can get it, or without it if we can’ t
but a man of honesty, of public
pride and of sound and approved
courage who in the pursuance of
public duties could look any man
or combination squarely in the
teeth and do precisely what he be
