HUNTSVILLE FACES THREE ELECTIONS
Bond Election, the Liquor Question and COmrais-
 sion Government

Huntsville, April 15.-(Special)- Huntsville faces the prospect of three elections in the immediate future. The first election has already been called for May 1 when the citizens will vote on the question of whether or not there shall be an issue of bonds in the sum of $100,000 for the erection of munich pal building to include a first class hotel.
 The second, in all bability, will be local option election which will in cude the whole county. Local option fists are even now preparing petitions for circulation among the voters asking that an election be held under the pro- visions of the Smith regulation bill.
 A third election will be held to place the city legally under the commission form of government. That election will be more or less a matter of form as the people voted two to one for the proposition in the last municipal cam paign, believing that the legislature would give the city that form of gov ernment without referendum, and all elective city officials pledged them selves to use all means possible to re- place the present government with a commission. t

you say about it? Do you say let

glorious liberty under their feet?
If so, just suppose We elect John

tore, and have it going at full
speed.
| have been tod by good author
ity that wealth nominated the

to me that they would nominate
their own kind-that is, those
whom they know will work for
their interest. | have good rea-
sons to believe that we would
have better times if we would
drop these political party quarrels
and when the candidates are
nominated, simply make some
investigations, and if they are
found to be unworthy, just simply
say that you will not cast your
vote for something entirely unfit
for a public servant.
There are so many people who
will just say "Well there's no
use for me to try to vote for this
man, or that man, because he is
right, unless all would vote for
him" If every individual would
realize what their part amounts
to, they would have better officers.
However, We believe that we
have or should have, the right, if
we are deceived in electing an
o Ecer, to discharge him and lock
for someone better ca culated for

that the law should prohibit any
money being used in any way in
electing officers,
