Needs Backed by Coed Candl-
dates tor Alderman.

The Independent has: always stood for
and worked Tor the interest Of Minot.
We today arc doing al we ore able 70
doto advance Minot sad shall 20 con
tiaae in the future. We have long
realized that Minot needs able and pro.
s1sssive aldernaen and Mayor Of good
executive ability. Both the aldermen
sad the Mayor should act il harmony
aad alt should at an times have only
oos thing in view and that 10 what is

We have always consenasd that tho

tasir candidates At. Office Aad isEthss 10.
tsetion qtcandidatps are alFays, slstt ITO
TAG people there nsedsbe no fear that
thsy win not selsct good men. In .
ely q tie size Of Minot The men are
wSll enough known to each voter to on
sSle him to SOLICIT good man ,tvitkout
ts1e aid OF political advice. IN the pres
eat campaign caucuses were hold il
|eaeh ward and tho voters '1wers invited
toastsnd aud without any manipulation
oei previous discussion they selected
thsis candidates lfor aldermen and Ct
ths same time expressed their preference
for Mayor. There Vas nothing in any
osncus that VAS not fair, and, above
board aud every candidate was given al
even chance with every other candidate.
Twas in our opinion q fair and in.
telligent method - could have been
selected. We believe that inI every in.
stance the people selected goods men
and that they were selected upon ono
aud only one theory --the best man for
the place.
In this way candidates we're Selected
by each ward for aldermen and By
canvas of the votes for Mayor the candi-
date for Mayor was selected. In max
ing that selection only zone thing was
considered by the voters 'and that was
who was the best man and then by can
wasting the votes of all the wards it was
determined who the majority wanted
for Mayor. That selection was made by
the people and Mr.. D. G. Greenleaf was
tho winner by the close margin of three
votes. We believe that the selection
was fairly made and that if the people
had not wanted Mr.. Greenleaf for Mayor
they would have voted differently,
We believe that the people have made
no error of judgment in selecting Mr.
Greenleaf. He has had experience in
city government and has always stood
for the best interest of the town. He
has seen the city grow and knows as
we'll as any man in Minot what the city
needs to further it's advancement and
we have every reason to believe that he
has the energy and the ability to do as
much for the city while Mayor as any
man in Minot.
We advocate the election of Mr.
Greenleaf and the aldermen selected by
the different ward caucuses because We
believe the people want these men and
because they are also good men. They
all stand for progression and action and
we want action. We have in the past
lacked many things that make city
and it is time we were doing something
toIforward the interest OF Minot and We
believe the people realize this and have
made wise selection in the different
candidates selected and the caucuses.
