MUSICAL Eventb-Itotoss
PASADENA, Feb. 1l.-Although the
next city election is still two months
away its opening gun has been fired by
the publication Of so-called Lincoln
club ticket and there has been general
awakening ell along the political lines.
On April 10th next the voters OF this
CITY will be called upon to elect three
councilmen to fill the positions now
held by Messrs. Lukens, Clark and NC.
Quilting, q city marshal. clerk ana
treasurer.
To do this in a satisfactory manner
and to select men of such ability. ex-
perience and well known integrity as
will be able to handle the affairs OF great
public importance which are sure TO
come before them is going to prove no
easy matter.
Great care should be taken to put in
men of we'll known business ability, as
from present indications this city Will
paes through one OF its most actlve anu
important periods during the next Jew
y.srs. which will require the coolest OF
heads and the best of experience to
handle in manner satisfactory 10 tne
best interest of the city.
During the past year the volume OF
business handled by the council bias
been greater by far than any former
wear. and the coming one promises even
more. Contracts involving the paving
of one or more of our public streets
will. without doubt, be let during the
coming summer, involving amounts up
in the hundreds of-thousands.
The question OF an extension OF time
ON the Terminal rates, which are at
present 10 cents higher than the fran
chise allows, comes up again next fall,
and a Thousand and one other matters
which demand capable men to handle
to the best interest of our citizens gen.
orally.
Who these men are matters little
40 long as they fill the requirements,
and Pasadena has scores of men we'll
f. aCe 0I CiGy CuunCIImaas whICrl- nab pul
the honor attached to it as compensa.
ton, and il they accept at all, will do &C
with the sense Of fulfilling duty to the
city which they cannot avoid.
Politics will cut no figure in the COM
ing election, but for all that there
promises to be lively fight before the
war 10 over.
As before stated, there has been but
one ticket announced and this has issued
from a political organization known as
the Lincoln club. The people at large
had no voice in the reelection of the
candidates and of course take no in
terest in the matter. Any club has the
same right to put up ticket. but the
people have the privilege of voting as
they think best. 1t would seem that
the proper way to select list of candi-
dates would be to call general public
mass meeting. advertise 1t and invite
everyone to attend and take part, and
then lot the people put up whom they
choose. There is no necessity for any
caucus in q matter OF this kind. All
that is wanted is an expression of the
wishes OF the community at large.
which has no use for rings OF any sort
and the proper wav to get it is at an
open meeting where everybody is in
vited to be present.
Pasadena is progressing more rapidly
than any city of its size in the state and
1t is OF the first importance that we
have clean, broad-minded men at the
helm who are capable of managing such
q city.
