_ ‘The Coming City Election.
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.

at large. Mr. Tallman engaged in
the hardware business at this city it
