Campbell, Kennedy and
Burns Running For
... "Ccuncilmen.
City election is only afew
weeks off and several candidates
for tho different offices have
been having their petitions
circulated this week. For Rec
order, Jerry Hartshorn will
make the race against M.
Fitzmaurice, present incumbent.
Otis Campbell, Chas. Kennedy,
and J. D. Burns will run for
.councilman but have not signi
fied whether for the two or one
year term. These are all good
.zr.en and substantial citizens,
who have lived here long enough
to understand the situation and
all of them would make good
councilmen. Oscar Portwood
and P. H. Stephenson will prob
ably be candidates to succeed
themselves and as there is yet
nearly two weeks in which to
file their petitions other candid
ates will probably make their
appearance. Alex Robertson
will run for city Treasurer and
should have no opposition.
Hire and Scott are holdovers,
together with Mayor Wood.
Politics will cut no ice in election
whatever. What the city needs
is a good business administration
devoid of factionalism, and with
this idea in mind the voters can
select from the candidates men
who wiil work for the interests
of the many and seek to lighten
the heavy burden of debt under
which tho former councils have
worked.
