CANDIDATES CIR
UCLATE PETITIONS
Campbell, Kennedy and

Ceuncilmen.

City election is only a few
weeks of and several candidates
for the different Offices have
been having their petitions
circulated this week. For Rec
order, Jerry Hartshorn will
make the race against NJ.
Fitzmaurice, present incumbent.
Otis Campbell, Chas. Kennedy,
and J. d. Burns will run for
councilmen but have not signi-
fed whether for the two or one
year term. These are all good
men and substantial citizens.
who have lived here long enough
to understand the situation and
oil Of them would make good
councilmen, Oscar Portwood
and P. H. Stephenson will prob
ably be candidates to succeed
themselves and as there is yet
nearly two weeks in which to
file their petitions other candid
ates will probably make their
appearance. Alex Robertson
will run for city Treasurer and
should have no opposition.
Hire and Scott are holdovers,
together with Mayor Wood,
Politics will cut no ice in election
whatever. What the city needs
is a good business administration
devoid of factionalism, and with
this idea in mind the voters can
select from the candidates men
who will work for the interests
of the many and seek to tighten
the heavy burden of debt under
which the former councils have
worked.

water.
The auto parties had some strenu
Gus times. Several of them ilounder
cd in the soft places in the roads, as
the melting. SHOWS from the hillsidea
has badly washed the roads and lett
bog holes that mired the machines.
The road needs some fixing to make
it passable for autos. This is one OF
the roads that the convict road fund
should be applied to. With few
weeks work it could be made one OF
the finest auto roads in the state and
almost daily some machine or team
is driven from Reno to this city
At the present time it is dangerous
for machines to attempt 10 negotiate
this highway. as many bad places are
to be found where a machine almost
goes out of sight. Several turn outs
should be made in order that teams
and autos can pass without danger to
life. AS the summer comes on this
road will grow i'll popularity and
should be put i'll lirst-class shape.
