w. S. TAYLOR ANNOUNCES
FOR COUNCILMAN

w. S. Taylor, who has been con-
ductor for the Frisco railroad for
twenty years, announces his candi-
dacy for the office Of city councilman.
Mr.. Taylor has been urged by his
many friends to make the race, but
has not been in position to do so
until this year. He has now made
arrangements whereby he will be
able to be in town most of the time
and can give his personal attention
to the work
Mr.. Taylor was probably the man
most instrumental in changing the city
government from the old method to
the commission form. For ten days he
worked with the citizens of Monet to
get their signature for petition to
make the change and it was largely
through his efforts that the election
carried. He has made a thorough
study of this form Of city government
and is conversant with all it's prob
lens and duties.
His far-sightedness in this project
which has proved sol successful is
assurance that he would make good
official if elected. He is good citizen
and booster for the town.

Dear Madam
/ learned this evening that yop,'
good husband, and my friend as well
as the friend of all who knew him,
had answered the call and had fin
ished his fight here on earth. l do
not know of words to express to yoa
my sympathy in your loss as a
companion; but there is one thing sure
in my opinion, he has gone to much !
better place and he could say truth
fully, "that he had fought good fight
and had kept the faith" /
/ look at death no longer as | once
did, neither do ! believe we should /
grieve over departed ones, for
they are much better off than we,
especially when they lead the life your !
good husband did. When our loved !
ones find a better position in life, we
rejoice. with them, and SO in death we
will miss their help here, but our loss
is their gain.
I knew when | left him last We'd /
nesday morning on the train that he .
was a sick man, gave him medicine
Monday and Tuesday night every I
three hours and part of the night We'd
nesday, but received from him new
ideas that ! shall always remember.
trust that you will look at this re-
moval in the light he would have
you, and you have my best wishes.
