The Leopold Morris committee
has issued an appeal for cam-
months ago, and last week at
Waco secured license to marry

"Doc” Lively of the Luf-

We don’t use all of these mat-
te the best method by which the
affairs of the city may be con-
ducted. The writer has given
more than passing thought to
this one perplexing proposition
and it appears to him that the
city council should employ one
good man with an assistant to
take care of the office work, the
duty of this man to be outlined
as expressed at the polls last
Saturday is indeed very gratify-
ing to those who have given
their time, energy and money to
the promotion of the best inter-
ests of thbcity, and to the News
it seems that it is now up to all
classes to make one Hurcelean
effort to better conditions all
along the line. In other words,
in re-organizing the new city
government it is up to the people
to see that the best men are
elected as mayor and aidermen
and then see that a modern way
of conducting a city government
is adopted. As the News under-
