Show H t 1 Hj ' LOGAN CITY GREAT H I CORPORATION H , I Now that tho election Is over the fl ' serious side of tho caso comes up for fl f consideration. Logan City Is a cor- H poratlon of several millions of cnpl- I i tnl. In tho ordinary courso of cor- fl J poratlon llfo directors In a corpora- fl H tlon of much less magnltudo would fl be working night and day to cxtrl- fl I cato Uiemselvcs from conditions that HI hamper progress, and to devlso ways and means for advancement and fl- K nnnclal standing among their fellows. Such would bo looked upon as no toy fl or play tiling to bo used for tho ad- fl vnncement of personnl ends, or srfcrl- Heed In any wny on tho spur of the HH , moment for lack of thought Mid con- flj slderation. On tho other hand tho directorate lind entlro stock holdings K would be working brain and brawn fl for tbo advancement and prosperity Bfl of tho organization. Such being the BB ccjso wherein Individuals arc Interest- BB cd In such corporations, how much BB more necessary Is It for tho stimc BB thought nnd sentiment to prevail In BB this great, nnd important corporation BB of tho pcoplo. Hero tho most ad- BB vanccd thought, the finest grnln of BB wisdom, tho most polished nnd refill- BB ' ed conclusions should bo tho results BB , of the nets of the commissioners. As BB j a president nnd board of directors BB giro their entlro tlmo to tho work for Bfl 1 which they nro elected, so the com- Bfl ! mtssloners should give their entlro H I time to tho work of tho pcoplo's cor- fl poratlon. Into their bunds tho peo- BB I 1 plo havo entrusted great responslbll- ft lty. They liavo entrusted their muni- Bfl ! clpnl fortunes and their sacred honor Bfl j and to that trust tho commissioners fl , should devoto their lives during their Bfl ' 1 ij Incumbency In olllco. Tho trust Bfl ', l Ij should bo held inviolate, ovcry step flj , J nnd net tho result of care, council, flj ' m 1 nnd deliberation, and in order that " flj j I may bo handed brf'k to tho peoplo flj ' -without stnln, It Is not enough to say flj J that It Is In ns good condition ns BflJl j when It was taken, but In vis ago flfljt , of ndvnncoment nnd progress, this ago Ht 1 of Americanism, it must bo handed Bfljl i back In aj better condition tlmi when flj It was taken. Otherwlso failure will flflj1 L ' be marked upon tho horizon and tho flji , peoplo will como back with a vote, of Bfljl repudiation. Bflj. Tho victory of Tuesday for mayor Bflj elect Thatcher and Commissioner- flflj 1 elect Larsen was most sweeping, flflj l' thereby Imposing great confidence in IH j them, and entrusting great responsi bilities Into tholr keeping. Tho campaign cam-paign brought forth many things that the peoplo havo written fyi their note flflj' H books und placed away for futuro flj checking. Theso gentlemen made no Bflj attempts to sldo step but met every flflj Issue squarely with n. statement flflj couched In such words that would not flflj, permit of misunderstanding, so that flflj I I when tho ballot fell tho peoplo know ! how thoy stood, and now that tho do- cIbIoii has been rendered theso gejatlo men kuow what tho peoplo oxpoct. . With Commissioner Ueorgo W. Lind- Bflj: ' rjuist they will conduct tho nlTnlrs of BBJ ' tho city for two years beginning on flj ' tho llrst of tho year. Mr. Llud(iilst Bflt 1 Is a capable olllclal, and well on to flj : tho affairs of tho city and will re- Bflj t celvu tho now olllclals with open arms Bflj ojnd tho three will place their tlmo flj j .nd talents ut tho disposition of tho H. 1 -city. Thoy cannot do It nil alono ' j cither, but will need tho support of flj i tho stockholders, tho peoplo If you flflj t please, nnd tho Republican is glad to flflj', , j make a call to arms In tho hope that H! . nit good citizens will unlto with tho olllclals and work for tho common flj flflj Ily this wo do not moan that wo Hjw, ) shall approvo and commend all tho Hjpj i.cts of tho new administration. Wo flj 1 hopo wo shall bo nblo to, and havo ij cqnndenco in tho result, but wo stand i upon tno samo Platform that wo havo always stood wo shall approve and commend that which Is wholesome nnd In tho Interest of tho common good, and shall opposo nnd condemn that which Is to tho contrary. When the new administration puts Its hand to tho plow wo trust thcro will bo no looking backward, but that tho promising futuro will be plowed with such care, wisdom and determination that tho harvest will bo wholesome and prosperous.
