Breezy News Items Gathered In tho Bu.y
Marshall County Town.
There is a demand for more harmony
among the Benwood Republicans, and 1t
is necessary that the party pull to-
gether with a will TO defeat the common
enemy at the polls. The best men
should win out, and all friendly rivalry
should cease after the primaries. There
Is some talk of one end OF the town do
Ing what Is called knocking" In the
event OF favorites losing. but such talk,
happily, emanates from only a few ar
dent workers, and It will not amount to
anything serious. A knoclier Inevitably
gets the worst Of 1t, and the downfall Of
n Charley Kurtz, in Ohio. Is but one
example.
An error In the reports received caus-
ed the name OF /. II. Bartlett to be left
out of the candidates suggested for
council from the Fourth ward. Mr..
Bartlett Is the only candidate from the
Cherokee Strip" and Is extremely pop
ular with his acquaintances, and II Sc
.lectcd will make a good representative.
When the next election occurs, two
years hence. Cherokee Strip" will likely
be Benwood's Fifth ward, md would
have been this time, but lhc required
ninety days notice was not given in
time. When It Ia made into another
ward. the city will likely be rcdlstrictcd,
q thing which IL needed.
