SOME FO RE CAS- rs
Of NEXT MUNICIPAL
ELECTION OFFICERS

Although the next municipal election
is some distance in the future. yet
there are few who have their eyes
fastened upon the baton Of the chief
of police of Ardmore, and in all
probability several will make their
announcement for that job in the
near future.
There is one active candidate in
the field at present and he is taking
pains TO inform all his friends that
he intends to make the race and
asks for consideration. he was a
member of the police force for a num-
Der of years. a deputy sheriff, and
at present is employed as special
officer by the retail merchants as
sociation, his name is Jake Williams
Williams is likely to have COM
pany in this race. as there are sew
eral men already on the force who
consider themselves eminently fitted
to boss the police force. and they
may be expected to let the fact
become known at the proper time
