voters of Alexandria that

commit themselves to candl-

There is no hurry, the cleo
ton is a long ways Oft, and
the necessity Of a wise choice

given the matter no thought
whatever, except that the

into public service. A pledge
to vote for any one, prema-
turely given, is almost al
ways a matter of subse-
