CAPT. JOHN f. READY
is NOW A MAYOR

Fairfield, April 17.--Former County
Attorney Attorney John F. Ready, who
has been for the past several years the
efficient captain of Company M. 54th.
Regiment Iowa National guard of this
city has been promoted to the rank Of
major by an election held Wednesday.
There were two majors to be elected
and it is indeed very great compli-
ment to Mr., Ready that he received 3
large majority for one OF the places.
The other man elected was Captain
George Ogle OF Centerville.
With this promotion also comes the.
significant fact that the new major
must at once resign as captain Of Com
pany M, and this is the part that Fair
field folks and especially the members
Of Company M dislike most although
Major Ready's friends are heartily con-
graduating him upon this well earned
recognition of his interest and hard
work in the 54th regiment. y
