ANNUAL CITY ELECTION Quiet Campaign Closes Next Tuevv day With Indications of a Light Vote LICENSE WILL BE VOTED ON Great Display of Latest Spring Fashions-Ready for your selection G OOD clothes are something men need; one of the things we want to tell you is that e appreciate how much it means to most of you to get good clothes; to get value for the money; to re ceive, when you buy, goods that are worth while. We have some knowledge about these things it's natural we should use that knowledge in your inter est; there's no reason why we shouldn't use it in your interest. The results of so employing our knowledge of good ciothes is a big store of fine suits for men, young men and boys. Priced for Men at $12 to $30 Boys $2.75 to $8 Tlie city election to be held Mai fTuesday will close one of the quiet eat and moat orderly campaigns ev r held in Alliance. The beauty of deciding by direct vote quest lone of public interest, especially the ques tion of licensing saloons, is shown inure plainly as the campaign pro presses. Whatever may be the re sult of the election, the campaign preceding it can be looked upon ev er after as a credit to the city. Dif uoes of opinion on public issue will exist the same when decided by trect vote as when settled by the election of a candidate for or a gainst. but the bitter personalities common to the latter will be avoided. We have not much to say Jn try ing to predict the result of the elec tion next Tuesday. It looks now aw though the votes will be pretty much divided among the candidal- for most of the offices, so much so IV it we do not care to hazard many guesses :is io who will be elected Reuben K. Knight, who is the only candidate on the ticket for city en gm"er, will be elected of course, and it seems quite probable that Jay Jflmerk-k will be re-elected jjr city clerk. He has given general satis faction in that office during the year just closed, and there is a atrong sentiment, in favor of giving an ac ceptable official a second term. A ltat of all of the candidates for the city offices lias already been pi blished In The Herald except two or three. . L. II. Highland, who has yielded to the requests of hlsIWends to make the race for mayor, is on 10re, ticket as, a candidate for tha. ulti.e. lie is well and favorably known in this city as a straightfor ward and able business man, and while we do not. venture to guess whether he will be elected or not, there can be no question but that he will have a strong support on election day. Karl J. Stern is one of the three candidates for councilman In the second ward. He Is well known, especially anion;' railroad men, and is held in highest esteem by all his acquaintances. He will probably re ceive a good support at the polls. The question of licensing saloons in which, without doubt, the voters of the city are more Interested in this coming election than they are In the candidates themselves, we would like to have discussed some what before the election, but on ac count of being crowded with our work we have been unable to do so, except so far as It has been mentioned through our W. ('. T. t department, etc. We do not be lieve that saloons have been a help to other lines of business In gener al in Alliance during the past year, hut do not care to reiterate the statement without giving our reasons. We are delighted that the question is to be settled in the sensible way. by direct vote of the people, and are willing to let the matter rest at that. S. A. Foster Lumber Co.
