tivity and progressiveness on the part of the city officials.
 Clean streets are alone great ad- vertisement for any city. Pine Bluff is without these at present. It's streets are filthy and unsightly, es- pecially in the business districts; it's sanitary conditions are inferior to that of it's sister cities and it's gen. eral appearance is far from inviting.
 Now the question arises how can these conditions be improved?
 How can we push our city to the front?
 We have tried others without the desired result.
 We now have the opportunity to place the responsibility on man whose past achievements are the best evidences of his ability-to do for Pine Bluff what at least the present administration has failed to do.
 This man is Dr. J. L. Caldwell candidate for Mayor.
