that. If elected, be would use the
Office. wherever he could without de-
triment to the people, for the interests
Of his party.
Under these circumstances, and ~
their candidate 10 . perfectly worthy
one 10 every respect, We believe the
Republicans Of Denison should assert
themselves and be as partisan in the
city affairs AZ the democrats are In
county affairs. Without any rehec-
tion on Mr.. Criswell the Review
would urge the republicans Of Denison
to rally enthusiastically to the SUPP
port Of their own nominee.
! For aldermen ct large the repub-
licans have named Charles Christensen
and James Armstrong. Chrestensen
proved prime favorite and he re-
ceived large majority Of the votes
cast. Armstrong and DR.. Coon had a
close race, three ballots being. neces-
sary to decide. Both were members
Of the old council and had many
friends. Armstrong has been con-
nected with the city government for
q number Of years aud has . good
working knowledge Of city affairs
which would be Of great value to the
new administration. Christensen is
one of Denison's rising young men,
he is very popular and there seems to
be no doubt % to his election. The
democratic candidates areJ. 7. Haugh
and Herman Grill. Mr.. Haugh's
nomination is received with consider
able approval while the nomination Of
Grill is not SO favorably considered. Il
is not believed that either democratic
candidate for alderman can overcome
the normal, republican majority
against so we'll equipped men 40 James
Armstrong and CHARLES Chrestensen.

the funds would be safe with either
Of them providing the bonds were
placed high enough.
For assessor the present official,
q. A. Norman. republican. is being
opposed by Ralph Cassaday. democrat.
Ralph is a nice boy but he lacks the
experience, the mature judgment AND
the knowledge Of values Of buildings
etc. which lifetime Of work ha,
given Mr.. Norman. Mr.. Norman'i
work has been satisfactory and there
is no doubt as to his election.
The aldermanic campaign presents
some interesting features. In the
First, Arthur Green is the unanimou,
choice of the republicans and thii
means his election hands down.
Sam Mccullough the democratic nomi.
nee. is good fellow and capable
man but he doubtless knows that he
is up against sure thing and viii
not lose any sleep over the election.
In the second ward the nomination
, of Will Gibson came as a surprise te
!, the republicans as we'll as to himself.
He is a bright. energetic young man,
we'll liked and strictly straight. He
would make an excellent alderman.
Pete Eggers was renominated by the
democrats although Mr.. E McAndrews
was urged for the place by many.
Mr.. Eggers made an excellent council.
