THE-CoMING CITY ELECTION

The approaching city election
should be given some thought. Can
didates for the mayor, recorder and
councilmen should be among our best
far-seeing citizens. Each office has
an Importance attached to it that
calls for men or women of character
efficiency and ability. The office of
Recorder calls for a man that can
keep clean and clear records - one
that has a knowledge of recording
permanent records in stylish, legi-
BILE and careful manner.
Place men on the ballot that can
handle the work. Belington has been
fortunate so far, SO lets put in a
good man for recorder as well as
the other officers elective or appoin-
tive.
