|OFHCE SEEKER GETS
into OLD PLACE
rs MEMBER OF THE COUNCIL
AND HEARS SOME cRITI-
cISM THAT TIcKLED HIM

A member OF the common council
stepped into store near the water
front yesterday, The proprietor OF
the place was not in, and his son
stepped forward to wait on the
customer.
The councilman and the proprietor
are old friends. but the son did not
know the identity Of the man before
him.
After 4 moment or two the young
man and the councilman struck up a
conversation, and the talk turned TO
the coming municipal election.
"Weil, there ought to be some
change" said the. young man. There
ought to be a change in the council

change"
Whats the matter with the eoun-
eill" asked the councilman, who by
this time didn't want to announce his
identity.
There's only one really good man
in the council" retorted the young
man, according to my idea. That's
Belland. He may be crank, and an
objector. as they say, but he tends
strictly to the peoples business"
"Belland7"
ayes, BeIland."
well, look here, l know Belland
better than you do" said the coun-
Gilman, "and don't think much oi
him. know him just well enough
to know that he amt what he might
be-"
Look at his record" said the
young man. "He votes right He
protect the interests OF the people.
Maybe you think you know him well,
but you don't. What have you got
to say against him, anyway"
II say there are other men just as
good as Belland, If not better"
By this time the argument was
getting slightly warm.
