To The most ordinary observer Of every

is unmistakable in the conclusion that tho
people are In earnest for advanced i'm
provement. The ADVOCATE believes that
the new council will do what lies in its
power to put Lehlghtor in the rank where
il belongs. They will have many things
of grave Importance to consider, but we
hope no silly fear will make them falter in
their determination to advance the inter-
ests Of the town. Burgess Kuntz and his
corps of councilmen, throwing politics
asi de, and going into bus'nc as one can,
during the next year, do mo for the town
that has been dsne in zen years past,
and for this reason. Our peop care awak-
eniug to the practical cisity OF keeping
abreast with the times. luring the year
ended water was introduced, effort was
made to secure industries, all showing a
desire to get up and get ansl do something.
The mighty dollar Is not squeezed so hard
and the town progressed. This spirit, now
awakened, must continue, and then watch
The result. Briefly now, we would mention
as few things that must come sooner or
later: Electric lights, hose and market
house, Park improvement, better streets,
good pavemeEls no obstruc ions and two
wards. These, and other things will be
legitinately debated by Burgess Kuntz and
council for they were elected on the i'm
provement p atform. The Burgess already
has signiied his intention for practical
progression. He means what he says.
Let council work with him.
