POLITICAL ANNOUNCEMENT
I hereby announce my candi
dacy for councilman from Cov
ington, I announce in order that
I may help the people of Cov
ington, and would appreciate
your support on the following
points which I think are of vital
importance to our town.
1. I would work for new indus
tries to come to Covington, there
have been several that we have
lost because other towns were
on the alert, why can't Cov
ington get its share of these?
2. I am of the opinion that
our town should be divided into
wards, and a councilman elected
from each ward, I would work
toward this if I am elected.
3. I am of the opinion that
there should be a quarterly re
port made of the cities financial
standing, and the same publish
ed, any money that is on deposit
in any institution should be made
i known, and that money placed
I where it will bring in the most
return for the citizens of Cov-
i ington.
May I ask your support if you
are in favor of these things for
our town.
Most Respectfully,
Gordon Bellew.
