.dTY TICKET NOMINATED!
A municipal Ikket Ph(ed IN the Field by
Petltna--Good lnd Clean Men.

There has been one municipal tick
ct placed 10 the field, and there /,
talk OF another one. The opposition
to the ticket which has already beer
fiied with the city clerk seem to hav,
difficulty In securing candidates u
make the race. There seems to be
an element who are dissatisfied with
the ticket which was filed by peti.
tion.
The candidates on the ticket are
William Peterson, Thos. Kane and
Geo. W kingsbury on this side and
W. T. Stethem and Frank Ibach on
the bar. They are all clean men.
OF good business ability, conservative
and interested in the progress CT our
little city. On this ticket no atten-
tion was paid to the political align
ment. but desired the best men for
the future welfare Of the city.
SO far as their politics are con-
cerned there are three democrats and
two republicans, but this should not
enter into their consideration for the
position. II the opposition, II there
should be any, is along political lines,
1t should be defeated. In the city
we have had enough politics for the
next two years, and it is time that
some attention was paid to our home
surroundings and less to politics.
The candidates on the Citizens
ticket are five of our best citizens.
and unless an opposing ticket should
be put up which could and would ac-
complish more for the progress OF
Salmon, The Recorder will use its
influence for the election of the Citi-
zen's ticket. The personnel of the
ticket is sufficient recommendation
without platform-they are plat
form themselves.
However, II there is small or
large portion Of our citizenship who
are opposed TO or dissatisfied with
the gentlemen on the Citizens tick
ct, the thing to do is to put up live
men to serve as members OF the vii
iage hoard for the next two years
whom they think will conserve the
interests Of the city, and men whom
they think they can he satisfied
with. This is free country, and
the way to have the largest measure
Of self-government is to vote for the
men you most earnestly desire and
the ones who will have the largest
measure of interest in the city.

To Give Millions to Charity.

| New York, March ls-The Herald
says that, according to member ol
John ID. Rockefeller Jr. s Bible class
and who is also personal friend OF
John d. Rockefeller and in posi-
tion 10 know of his affairs, the latter
proposes soon to make a princely gift
to New York City. 1t will amount
to at least s50,O0o,0 900. 1t will be
partly charitable and partly educa.
tional The Herald continues:
This man said that when Mr.
John ID. Rockefeller was comforting
with his son at Lakewood, n. j., a
fortnight ago, the meeting was not
for the purpose of discussing any i'm.
mediate gift, but was on the subject
OF Mr.. Rockefeller's will. which doc
ument the oil king was then com
pleting with the aid of his son and
bis lawyers. Ii is said that this doc
ument will astonish the world when
1t is made public. 1t will, it is de-
clared, give no less than $3.50, 0OO, 600
for charitable and educational pur-
poses and it will be so bestowed that
the benefit therefrom will almost be
perpetual.
1.-The manner in which these be-
quests will be bestowed Is said to be
mainly educational and charitable.
While there are some contributions
for religious purposes, 1t is stated
that Mr. Rockefeller does not think
1T necessary to extend any great
financial aid to the churches He
thinks the churches are growing
steadily stronger and that there is no
danger that they will ever need any
great financial assistance from one
man.
.'Mr. Rockefeller, however, is
said to be much in favor of the
growth of the education and to the
furtherance of this end he has done
much in his will He believes that
education will make this country the
greatest in the world and that every
cent contributed toward that object

better Christians.

poor, such as have been erected in

vided these three things, beQuesis
