THE CITY ELECTION.

TNHE city election which was held in this place
4 last Tuesday is another evidence of the fact
that in municipal and minor matters the old idea
of adhering closely to party affiliations is losing
in favor There are lot of things that enter into
elections of this nature and which frequently alter
the results. First and foremost (and rightly, tool
the qualification of the candidate is taken into
consideration Second, family ties and personal
friendship is weighed, and third selfish and per-
sonal advantages often play an important part,
so that in running for political Office particu-
larry in local affairs, there are lot of things to
be taken into consideration besides which polit-
ical party is in the majority
To which of these causes the result of the re-
cent election is to be ascribed we are not prepared
to say but certain it is from the vote lot of the
people were voting other than their political con-
vlctlons. However, in entering the whirlpool of
politics man takes all these chances, and there
is no use of feeling sore or disappointed over the
result for it is only assertion of the will of the
majority to which all in this form of government
must bow in submission. And besides had the
defeated candidates have won, other candidates
must needs have been defeated instead. All could
not win
For our part, we have confidence that the city
officers just elected will do their best TO give us
an honest, efficient and progressive administra-
ton. Amen!

THE PRIZE CAR.

4 length The Records long delayed prize
"A Ford touring car that is to be given as
hrst prize in our voting contest is here and has
been on exhibition today for the first time
IN front of The Record building. 1t is spic and
span, complete in every particular and awaits the
touch upon the steering wheel and throttle lever
OF the candidate who is fortunate enough to no.
sess 1t at the close of the contest With five 9TH
ers 1t made the trip direct from the Ford factory
at Detroit, Michigan, to Lund, this county in a
freight car, and has been set up and fully assem-
bled since arriving at Cedar City.
That the Ford car is servcable and depend
able car is fully borne out by the fact that nearly
II not quite all of the cars in use in the United
States are Ford cars. They are made in accord
lnce with correct principles of motor car construc
ton, and give uniformly good service the country
over Wherever motor cars are used, YOU will see
the dependable little Ford doing it's full duty in
promoting the pleasures and business of the HUI
man race
The Records car is Ford touring car. Moth
ing more and nothing less. 1t is car that any
contestant may well prize and feel proud to po-
sess, for great many of the wealthy and infuen-
tial people OF the nation use the Ford because of
Its convenience, economy and dependability.
The car can be seen here almost any day from
now on, and may be exhibited to a limited extent
IN the nearby settlements. Immediately after the
close of the contest December 10th, it will become
the property of the candidate having the highest
number of votes in our contst according to the
decision of the three judges having the contest in
charge.

WE AWAIT THEIR ANSWER.

SOUTHERN UTAH in general and Cedar City
- In particular is awaiting with interest the
reply OF State Engineer Beers to letter recently
mailed by the citizens committee appointed to
investigate and negotiate further IN relation to
the proposed branch of railroad from Lund to Ce-
dar City. The purport of the letter sent by the
committee to Mr.. Beers was that from the assur-
ance given by the towns of southern Utah, so far
as heard from, we felt safe in promising that the
people would contribute the ties for the road
providing the Salt Lake Route and the State Road
Commission would perform their part of the COM
pact to grade the road and furnish the rails and
rolling stock conference was also suggested
by the committee either at this place or Salt Lake
City for the purpose of working out the details of
the undertaking. and arriving at satisfactory un-
derstanding in relation to values of the various
properties to be furnished the formation of the
proposed company, etc. At this writing no ans
wer has been received to the committees note
From the hurried canvass made it was evident
that the people OF this entire section are deeply
interested in the question of better transportation
facilities, and would welcome and assist the build
ing of branch of rail road that would cut off
even thirty miles of the uncertain and tedious
wagon haul that stands between them and the
markets and pleasures of the outside world.
mileage of state highways, and the maintenance
OF all this grade is the problem that now confronts
the state road commission, and which has assumed
serious proportions 1t is evidently the conclusion
of the state engineer and other members of the
commission that if they secure the laying of
ties and rails on portion of this grade where it
viii serve large area of country and besides re-
lievng the state of the burden of maintaining it,
at the same time better serve the needs of the
residents, 1t will be wise move. An opinion that
is evidently entertained by the people of this To-
calty as well.
Now that the people have had prospect of the
realization of their dreams of the past thirty or
forty years, they are naturally impatient at any
further delay, and are waiting anxiously for the
next move in the program for the construction of
the proposed road
We certainly trust that there will be no fur
ther delay, but that the people may realize their
long cherished desirs, in the very near future.

TO OUR NEW FRIENDS.

WYE wish this issue to address a few words
Wv of welcome to the small army of new
friends who have come to us during the past four
or five weeks, and which have sweled our already
generous circulation by many scores. These new
readers, to whom The Record will pay it's weekly
visits are situated in practically every town
and hamlet in this county, and many in adjoin-
hamlet of this and many, very many, in adioin-
ing counties in this portion of the state number
reside in Salt Lake City. some in other northern
Utah towns, and still others in California and
other distant points. And still they come, until
it has been necessary to repeatedly increase the
size of our issue, and add additional 'gaeys" to
contain our mailing lists.
Without question, The Record not only has
the widest circulation of any paper south of Pro-
vo, but it is probably the most widely read coun-
try newspaper in Utah. This is distinction of

each week out of the ffty-two which make up the
year. to merit. Our interests are for southern
Utah. first, and we are trying to work for the
whole people, and not for one particular locality.
Of course it is only natural that we should speak
first for our immediate locality, but we will also
try to represent and safeguard the interests Of all
the southern counties.
To all these new friends, we extend cordial
welcome to our fold of readers We shall do our
best to entertain and keep you posted on the news
of this section of Utah during the coming year,
and if you like our STYLE and agree with us that

PNEUMONIA ON INCREASE

! Pneumonia is the greatest rival of
tuberculosis as a captain of death.
In one official report it exceeds con
sumption in the next it takes second
place But pneumonia finds a con-
siderable proportion of it's victims
among the old and infrm who are
about ready to die anyway. Again, it
causes a large number of deaths among
infants who have a weak grip on life.
One reason why as vigorous cam
paign against pneumonia as the one
against consumption is not being wag-
ed is that the facts concerning the
spread of pneumonia are not nearly SO
clear as they are concerning tuber-
culosis For example, we know that
drunkenness, extreme exhaustion;
and a generally run down condition
may precede pneumonia and then we
frequently see that strongest and most
athletic young men and women sue
cumb. Indeed, some medical authori-
ties hold that pneumonia and typhoid
are more likely to attack the strong
than the weak.
! While we may not have so clear a
picture of the causes of pneumonia as
is desired and while our facts seem oc-
casionally to contradict each other,
what is definitely known about pre-
vention should be utilized. Consider
alton of pneumonia is timely now, as
we are entering the seasons of the
vear when this disease is most pre-
valent and when it is, therefore, most
important for one to be on guard.
Inasmuch as debilitating diseases

persons not in robust health and those
using alcoholic liquor should be
especially careful to avoid exposure tt

VICTIM OF THE RIPPER

New York May 6.--Convinced that
Charles Murray, the four and a half
year old boy murdered in the hallway
of lower East Side tenement last
night. was slain by the man who on
March 10 killed Lenore Cohn, five
years old, the police made energetic
efforts today to arrest the murderer.
Both crimes were ripper murders,
presenting many similar features.
Several men who were lingering
about the neighborhood of the Muir

early today but most Of them were
released when the little sister of the
murdered boy failed TO Identify them

Oilton, Okla, May G.-Passenger
traffic to oil field points is practically
all via Oilton, especially of people
visiting the field from the east side
and northern points. This is caused
by the completion of the Oil Belt
Terminal railroad and the fact that
the two trains each way daily make
direct connection with outgoing and
incoming trains at Jennings. In fact
special trains have been put on by the
Frisco in order to make the passenger
service to the oil field via Oiton fully
complete. Practically all traffic to
