Eleven years ago Mr.. Waters married
a prominent school teacher. Miss Jes-
sic Northup, and resides in a comfort
able home on Summer street. The
friends OF our candidate can be mum
bered by the hundreds, and his gentle
manly qualities have won him the es-
TEEN Of all who have come In contact
with him. He has been identified with
many philosophical movements. and
always been a staunch Republican,
and ever been a faithful worker for
the party. With an ir~reproachable
character and a loyal heart for Salem,
Mr.. Waters was chosen the popular
candidate at an open primary, where

The bicycle record OF the Citizens
administration alone should condemn
il TO eternal oblivion. An ordinance
was passed last spring which virtually
excluded residents Of the suburbs. or
people from the country, from getting
into the city from any direction. It
deprived business men OF the trade Of
hundreds Of wheel riders, who could
so and come without violating the
Law, and being subject TO arrest There
was no demand for such a sweeping
restriction. and il was never petit

All Devoted 70 Hotter.

The opening article in the leased
column" is devoted almost entirely to
Hofer, Of The Journal, and denounces
him a. a bad man generally. Let II
be admitted that the nan who wrote
that article has been identified with
the Citizens movement from the
start, but for what? In what capaci.
ty? He is a warrant shark, and when
the Citizens proposed to carry into
effect the 4 per cent popular loan, as
promised. this unselhsh mar resisted
IL with all his might. denounced il as
a visionary scheme. and wanted TO is
sue 81 per cent warrants. II will be
remembered that Mr.. Hofer, whom he
attacks in so silly a manner. fought
for the popular loan, and after II was
inaugurated cheerfully sold what s
per cent warrants he held, and bought
4 per cent bonds with The money. This
same warrant shark has since learned
several ways TO work" the "Citi-
zens." and insists IL is a good thing.
The Republican column in this paper
will not be employed for dirty person

Voters, do not be deceived by the

the present wide-open city. and ia the

be changed under P. S. Knight as

for city police judge and Doc Gibson
for chief Of police? In trying to
round up for a pure administration

trying to ride horses going in opposite
