WEDNESDAY, APRIL 3, 1918.
THE CITY ELECTION
Teeterday’a balloting resulted in the
election of the entire Cordova ticket
and the defeat of the two independent
candidates. Despite miserable weath
er conditions, a fairly large vote was
polled, and considering the fact that
the majority of the candidates were
assured of election, the interest man
ifested was a good indication that the
eitizens of Cordova are awake to their
interests in municipal affairs.
The new council will be composed
entirely of representative business,
men—men who are sacrificing their'
time and labor for the general good
of the community. It may be confi-!
dently expected that the forthcoming
unicipal year will see an admin
istration of the city’s affairs on a prac
tical business basis. The Times feels
that the city is to be congratulated on
its choice of a council, and bespeaks
for them the united support of the
community, to the end that progress
and prosperity may attend their en-1
deavors. I
It is seldom that an election takes
place at which animosities and jeal
ousies are not engendered, but it may
truly be said that in the short cam
paign just ended there elements were
but little in evidence. If any such
exist, now is a good time to set them
aside and join in the general move
ment for the welfare of the city.
Cordova has a most promising future
before it, and- in order that the full
benefit of the city’s growth in busi
ness and influence may be enjoyed',
it behooves all to work shoulder to
shoulder for its advancement. And
those who supported the losing can
didate are just as much interested,
and should be just as helpful, as those
who supported the winners.
Now is a -good time to bury the
hatchet and w'ork together in har
mony for the city’s advancement.
