Union City, election to be held January

We are authorized to announce Mayor
]. A. Coble as a candidate for re-elec-
ton January 6, 1912. In making the
announcement we feel justified in stat
ing some very interesting facts, and one
that stands out more conspicuously than
than the rest is that Mr.. Coble has in
all probability been more active, as
sumed greater responsibility, and devot-
ed more time to the discharge of his
duty in the ratio of his length OF service
than any other Mayor presiding in that
official capacity in Union City. We do
this mainly because the work OF the
present sewerage system was originated
and completed, every part and parcel OF
it, in eighteen months. or less than a
term of two years. Sewerage is one OF
the most, important undertakings in the
history OF townships passing from the
rural to the initiatory stages of city
and requires not only courage to face
the task, but, greater still, managing
ability and executive foresight. This
Mr.. Coble has undertaken, together with
the assistance Of a well balanced board
membership, without the slightest incli-
nation to finch or falter, and push to
I.absolute completion in approximately
eighteen months. Union City has been
served by Mayors with greater legal and
business distinctions, men of forensic
abilities and financial achievements,
but none who have dared to under
take or succeeded in accomplishing
more real and tangible results, or, it
might be truthfuIly stated, nearly so
much in the same length of time.
Another feature of this work, none
the less important, is that the city's
bonded Indebtedness has not been in
creased cent and half Of the entire
cost Of the contract, which is altogether
$50 900, has been paid We do not
undervalue the many other good fea-
lures Of Mr.. Coble's administration but
this work will always stand as monu.
ment to his official record. A report Of
the financial condition Of the city was
published in the papers few weeks
ago and in many ways the present adj
ministration has served the city well
and we take the greatest pleasure il
presenting to our readers the candidacy
Of Mr.. Coble for Endorsement to sec
ond term

We are authorized to announce DIR.
NJ. A. Blanton as candidate for Alder
man of Union City, election to be held
January 6, 1912. DIR. Blanton is COM
pleting his first-term service, but during
the two years has enough good work to
his credit to entitle him to something
more than recognition by the voters for
reelection. DIR. Blanton is the author
of the system which has been operated
so successfully in Union City, known as
tie scavenger service. The suggestion,
Of course, came from the physician IS
knowledge of communicable diseases and
their causes. The system comprises
thorough circuit Of the city once week
and the transfer from the city limits
and incineration OF all unsanitary mat
ter. The system has worked wonders
in Union City and has been adopted in
many other towns and cities after the
investigation of our system. DIR. Blan-
ton was also one OF the prime movers III
establishing the present sanitary sewer
age system. He was unquallhedly IN
favor Of the system and instrumental in
large measure in getting contract
made for the work DIR. Blanton is
chairman OF the finance committee and
has served also with distinction tn that
capacity He is by all means decidedly
progressive in all public matters and
stands for all that is for our moral and
physical development It's our pleasure
to present the name of DR.. Blanton to
the voters as candidate for Alderman.

from frenzied finance, from marginal
speculation, where nothing is really
bought OF sold, but wagered, just as a
bet on horse race or poker game.
That our whole financial system should
be subject to such a thing as this is a
national disgrace and shame. Senator
.Culberson and other men Of note under
took to regulate the system, but the in
terests arose against all these efforts and
drowned them. II such things as these
are allowed to continue the people will
finally revolt and the revolt will be hell.
