MtHWKLIE” m (COMPANY IN m POLITICS OPENS OCT thinks city should publish REPORT AS OFTEN AS BANKS. Editor Herald: 'J When such men as Speaker Champ Clark and some of the best divines In the United States say that every man, to a certain extent, ough to bo a politician, I can't help feeling it my «luty as an interested citizen of Way- • cross to express my honest convlc- Ucvb on a few points in connection with tlio mayoralty race which is How absorbing the attention of our citizens, and which ere long, perhaps, will be like a boiling caldron. I have never been a seeker after office and never held a political one, and have no aspirations in that direc tion. Not having an axe to grind or a bridge to build, and only one little ditch that needs opening and clean ing out, I believe the people of Way- cross and Ware county believe mo to beat least sincere and will road what ever I write for the general good ot our community, whether it be about parka, shade trees or tin* offices con nected with Bucit things. It dot s seem to the writer that not only every rnan in a community ought to feel an interest in its offi cials and representatives hut every good and intelligent woman and every bright hoy and girl 'should wish to have our city affairs governed by men who are so Imbued with the In terest of the whole cilV that it is really not necessary for them to have to record their promises as to what they will do for the city, If they are so fortunate as to be honored with the office of councilman or mayor. Js not the honor compensation as well ns the salary? It should he so considered by right thinking men Now, let it be fully understood that 1 am not grinding the axe of any candidate who has already declared for office or who may hereafter de clare for an official servant’s position. The point is tide: In selecting a candidate to vote for, ;io matter what the position is ho Is to fill, it behoov es every good citi .en to think well before ho act a or pledges himself ua to who he is going to vote for. Investigate first of all his character as a man, then his ability to do and bis disposition to do tho just, right and proper thing toward all the peo ple ns near ns it is possible for weak humanity to do, utul to do it pleasant ly and uncomplainingly but feariersl.v, regardless of what his alleged best friend might, as one of a minority, deserve and advise to the contrary Officials of a city, in my humble opinion, should bo nbic to bury their prejudices and do Justice to man alike, whether be be rich or poor, n worker in the shops or the hank-*, on the farm or for the railroads. As a cltlzep of Way cross I feel that 1 sin u partner in the city's business and Its ncalrs, and have n perfect right to know from whence comes and for wl .tr the money coming into the city’s treasury is being paid out for, ct.o that a report of same should be published as often ns are the bank report* Why not? I.* fa.t, it is as much a business con cern. U properly considered, ns any bank or any. other corporation in Ware county,' and it will take a mighty smart man to prove the con trary to a lot of voters in Way cross who do their own thinking and have the city's Interest at heart. ff there Is a cnnJTIatc for any of fice for whom I do not entertain the r'CMd friendly feeling he has not yet fcnnoar.ccj and l dare ?nv will rot. The test man for the eo itton is what I say, even if you think a wee bit ir.ore Of the other fellow in the Tucnln-g against him. Voter*, to think twice before you WILL HAVE AUCTIONS.
