Elmendorf will be elected with
out counting a single man at
work on the sewers.
The weather has no terrors for
the Elmendorf men. They turn
out every where and every night.
The city hall people should not
snub the Express reporters-talk
to them straight and smile at their
discontinue.
The Express should be sued for
damages by the innocent fellows
who are putting up their money
on Callaghan.
The Express will be strong FL

counted. They made a big mis-
take this time-that's all.
Every guard against unfairness

the city for an unpaid printing
bill. Who got that money? The
LIGHT never got smell.
