The time is fast approaching when the
voters of this city will be called upon to
perform an important duty. in the election

Mr.. W. FL. Harton, the present incumbent.
The former is gentleman of irreproach-
able character and is large property hold
er within the city limits and would,
no doubt, If elected take deep inter
II.

during his term filled the office with ability

be tolerated bya large majority of the voters
next Saturday.
