They have sold for about ~ a

1t is not the political record of the
candidate for mayor that is of so
much concern, but his business
qualifications, personal integrity,
views of municipal needs and pride
in the city. A man may make a
very good mayor who is bad pol
itician. but he must have pride in
all that makes for the good and
growth of the city he must have a
character for integrity and fair
ness, he must be man of approved
business quality or he will not fill
the bill for mayor of San Antonio
at this time. The need of a just
man, strong man, wise man at
the head OF city affairs for the next
two years is too apparent to need
any comment. The people will
consult their interests by seeking
out such a man and letting the
others shift for themselves. San
Antonio must look out for number
one.
