ALDERMEN.
For councilmen there are unusually good
men named this year by the republicans.
People generally recognize the importance
of making good selection of men to serve
the people on the board of aldermen. With
this idea in mind the republicans of the 1st
ward present
FREDERICK II. GOULD
as their candidate. Mr.. Gould has been in
the council before and served the people
well and faithfully. The business interests
Of Mr.. Gould consume so much of his time
that lie very reluctantly consented to 60 be-
fore the people asking their support in the
com ing election. Mr.. Gould is in touch
with the people and their interests; while
desiring to see the city improve and pros
per, he believes in an economical and
careful administration of its affairs.
SAMUEL LAMFROM,

is veteran in the service Of the city. He
has served four years as member of the
council and has proven himself careful,
painstaking servant. While in the council
he earned the sobriquet of swatch dog of
the treasury" While insisting upon an
economical administration Of the city's at
fairs he has been at all times alive to the
growing needs of the city. Because of hav-
ing proved himself wise counselor and a
careful, prudent man, and ready at all times
to give his time to the interests of the peO-
pie of the city, Mr.. Lamfrom should receive
the support OF his party to man.
ROBERT A. HARMON,
after spirited contest, received the nom-
nation for alderman to represent his ward.
He is thoroughly competent man. A me-
chanic at the car shops. A hard working,
honest and upright man. He Is popular In
his ward and ought to receive the united
support Of all republicans, together with all
others who are interested in selecting men
for the government of the city who will be
honest and faithful to the trust reposed In
them. Such man we believe Mr.. Harmon
to be.
