Show Ha ' ff THE TICKET. Hu The republicans present their city HI ti ticket In full confidence that the per HR L sonnel of that ticket will commend, It- HJI' " self to the favorable consideration of HI ft all members of the party and to the Hf, I. many of the opposing party who have Hhvj been talking so much about a "needed HE' business administration." Both the H tr. general and councllmanlc ticket are K jl made up of business men and women, Hj'jf, representative citizens thorougly ca- H.- pable of giving the city the kind of Hr'Ai administration desired by the public. B Aglauce at the ticket shows conclu- H'. slvely that the candidates were not Hi named because of their personal popu- K'H larlty, but rattier on account of their H' h peculiar fitness for the otlico for which Hy -f they are named. This is tho guaran- Bh I tec, and an excellent one It Is, that H; the republican ticket, If elected, will H1 j best serve the public's Interest. Hiji J- A Hendrlckson, candidate for Hj mayor, Is best known for his shrewd- H;-U ness, business sagacity and tireless Hj: t energy He has the ability and dis-bV.1 position to serve trie city well, and in having unlimited time at his disposal has much the advantage of any man who could have been named by either party. He Is pre-eminently the best man for the position to .which he aspires, and It can not be gainsaid that Logan will indeed be fortunate to have him at tho helm as a general director ot the city's affairs. Don O. Benson, for marshal, is a man whose private life, general reputation, repu-tation, and record on the police force should commend him to the. law-abiding law-abiding citizens of this city. Don Isn't much ot ajellow to curry favor here, there and elsewheroby kindly closing his eyes to small derelictions on the part of those who regard ordinances, or-dinances, as a nuisance, and for that reason he Isn't regarded as a "popular" "popu-lar" man. But he would make one of. the best marshals this city ever had, and it the people of this city are wise they will elect him. The Recorder's position Is largely clerical, and there is no reason to doubt that Hiss Irene Cressal can fill tho position as satisfactorily as the average, certainly as aoly as her opponent. op-ponent. There is no good reason why any republican should refuse her a vote. In the case of the Treasurer, the filing of a bond Is the great consideration. considera-tion. This is a bank proposition, and as tho Thatcher Banking Co. puts up for the democratic nominee, so will the First National put up for Miss Groesbcck, who Is a very competent clerk If that Institution. J. A. Sneddon has served as attorney attor-ney the past two years and the city Is none the worse off. Ho is better qualified quali-fied now than when elected two years ago, and there seems no good reason why his services should be dispensed with at this time. There may be lawyers with a greater store of legal lore at least with a greater reputationbut reputa-tionbut there never was nor never will be occasion to use a thousand pound hammer to brain a gnat. (inly an'occaslonal political enemy in tho Fifth ward doubts Wm. Brang-ham's Brang-ham's hone'sty, and It Is beyond dispute dis-pute that ho Is moro familiar with the Justlco's office than his opponent. Mr. Brangham has served as precinct Justice a time or two, has done the work very acceptably and will po doubt be elected. Tho republican Councllmanlc ticket Is an exceptionally good one. John F. Wright was at ono time a commissioner commis-sioner of this county and generally regarded re-garded as a splendid ofilclal. He Is a rather shrewd nun, has made a fair financial success, has retired, and has the time and disposition to serve the city well. W. W. Hull Is one of Lorenzo Hansen's Han-sen's right hand men and this successful suc-cessful farmer, condensed milk factory man, and ex-mayor doesn't surround himself with weak men. Mr. Hall is a capable young man, who a few years ago represented, Cache In the stale legislature. James Quaylc is one of Logan's successful suc-cessful mercantile men. He Is one of those fellows who look at every dollar three- or six times before letting It go he Is from Missouri. Yet he Is fairly progressive and sincerely Interested In the city's best welfaro and will unquestionably un-questionably make an Ideal city official. of-ficial. Albert Kcrntson Is a contractor and builder and has been building Inspco tor of the city the past four years. He Is well acquainted with the city" needs, and his business enables him to give the council tho advantage of much good experience. Karl C. Schaub Is a strong man, a successful man, shrewd and thoroughly, capable. As a surveyor and architect ho has made a success, and he will give the city a splendid service. Take It as a whole, the council ticket i Is a good one, ono In which the people may repose fullest confidence. It will command all the votes necessary on its merits. |
