SOMETHING OF THE LOCAL REPUBLICAN
TICKET FOR PRICE.

Last weeks Sun refrained from saying any
thing about the candidates on the republican city
ticket. Nor do we think IL necessary to go into
their histories or past records save 10 say that
they are all men of integrity-men of good bust
ness qualifications, men who have lived here for
years. men who have taken part In the growth Of
Price and Of Carbon county.
A. w. Horsley for mayor has heretofore held
public office and his record Is before the public
He In n man who has always insisted that right
harms no one, and who II elected one may go TO
and who will be willing 10 take advice and be adj
vised on public questions. He does not desire a
council simply 10 comply with the law. but he
would have men associated with him who
should he make mistakes-would go 10 him and
advise with him of errors In his judgment. On
the other hand he wants a council behind him
whom he can go 10 for advice and counsel at
times when things might not be progressing as
they should A. w. Horsley is man who will
listen to anyone who may come TO him. He has
never in his life attempted 10 be boss or TO WELD
the big stick.
Thomas Fitzgerald the nominee for four-year
councilman, Is a man so well known In Price that
there Is scarcely n child hereabouts that does not
number that gentleman as his or her friend.
"Fitz." as he Is popularity known. has made Price
his home for some twenty years. He has never
held or desired office. This year. however. after
his friends suggested his name he came out and
said: IF can be Of any use 10 the city am
willing to give my time" The Sun does not
Fitzgerald and retain the highest degree Of self
respect.
And, 80 on down the line. John II. Pace. Lars
Frandsen and Doll Fausett. all men of the
highest type of character--men identified with
different lines of business in the city, and also
who know the ms and outs of what is the best TO
do 10 make our city grow. l.. A. LAUDER, candi-
date fCg city recorder. IL is true. has held this
office for two terms, but even his political enc
mics say he has clear record and no one can
beat him for the way in which he has kept the
records of the city. There was no opposition TO
him two years ago. After he had been nomina-
ted by the republicans the democrats endorsed
him on their ticket for the position. III man Is
serving you well. why change? II cannot be for
the purpose of getting a more competent man.
The salary attached TO the office is not attractive
enough for anyone TO make especial effort for
the position.
A. H. Hunten for city treasurer is very de-
serving young man. He has been practically
reared in Price. The only office he has ever held
until the past two years was that of treasurer of
the Carbon county high school-appointive. He
is at present treasurer of the city-electve. The
Sun looks for Hunter 10 be elected by a very
substantial majority. His opponent CNNilliams)
is not well known at Price, having been for some
time In the employ of the Denver and Rio Grande
at Price as an operator at good salary. If cleo
ted he could not afford 10 give up his present
position for that Of city treasurer with the salary
attached.
