The preliminary skirmishing of the city election to be held on the first Monday in May has already begun, although a still hunt is being pursued as yet by those who aspire to the positioris of honor and profit to be filled Successors are to be elected to Trustees Mills, Gaylord an1 Locklin, also to Marshal Eddy, Treasurer Gray and Assessor Getchell. The antiquated incorporation act under which the city is governed at present is held in very knowledge of local governmental affairs, and itis likely an effort will be made to prevail upon the Trustees to let the citizens determine at the May election whether they would like to supplant it with the new municipal pill. This issue was presented to the voters four years ago, and they gave a majority in favor of poking along under the old law; but since then many who voted against a change have looked into the matter and are satisfied they made a mistake. The Transcript invites communications from tax-payers who are interested in the subject. A-discussion of it-in these columns might prove productive of miich benefit, It would certainly be interesting. t ain Death of George W. Tallman, George W. Tallman, jailor at Red-. , wood City, San ‘Mateo county, died Friday and will be buried there‘today under the auspices of the Masonic order.
