gency rescue and working girls

HALF Of COUNCIL
TO BE- COMPOSED
Of new MEMBERS
With We'll Seeking Mayor
atty, Franey, Bahlau and
Simpson to Retire.

With the announcement of Alder
man Ben We'll that he will make the
race for mayor, and the positive
statements by Alderman Franz
Traney of the First ward, H. V. Bah
lau of the Third ward and ]. NJ. Simp
son Of the Fourth ward, that they will
not be candidates to succeed them
selves the unusual situation is pre-
scented whereby one-half of the alder
manic body for the next city admins
tration will be composed of entirel.,
new men.
Old residents Of Pine Bluff yester
day found it difficult, if not altogether
impossible. to remember when just
such a situation presented itself.
There have been many elections when
one, or two, or even three of the alder
men have not been candidate to sue
coed themselves, but no one could be
located yesterday who could recall
any previous year when the four
aldermen whose terms expired, all re
fused to make the race for anothe"
term.
Retirement Causes Regret.
There was general regret expressed
yesterday in uptown business circles
over the announcement by Messrs
Fancy, Bahlau and Simpson that they
would not seek to continue in the of
fees they now occupy with SUCH
honor to themselves and such salts
faction to the people generally. Each
has rendered excellent service, and
each has been at the head of commit
tees which have had Important worl,
to do. Mr.. Franey. as head of the po-
lice department. has aided materially
the efforts of Mayor Bloom and CHIEF
of Police Frank Stewart to establish
the department on the most valuable
and satisfactory basis. Mr.. Bahlai
has been chairman of the very i'm
portant committee on water and
| lights. and has been indefatigable in
his efforts to get the maximum of Ser
vice at the minimum OF cost and trou-
BILE. to the city and to the citizens
Mr.. Simpson has been chairman of the

much Of the credit for he pre- sent eX.
Qallenf sanitary condition of the CITY
having devoted much time and labor
to personally inspecting conditions,
and having continually insisted on the
strict enforcement of all sanitarw
laws
The expression was frequently
heard yesterday, of the hope that in
selecting the successors to Messrs.
Franey, Bahlau, Simpson and We'll,
the city will be fortunate in obtain
ing men who will be as sincere in
their efforts. as hard working and as
progressive as the quartet of men VII,
now hold down those positions, the
statement also being made that judg-
ing from the announcements of candi-
dates. the wish will likely be materi
allied.
There are candidates from each u
the wards except the Third, and there
is considerable speculation as to the
identity of the citizen who will offe.
to serve his people on the council
from that ward. Efforts are being
made to induce several wellknoWn
business men to volunteer, but thus
far none has made known his inten-
ton.
