IMPROVED METHODS AND NEW MACHIN WANTS THE JOURNAL IS A STRAIGHT REPUBLICAN GOV. STUBBS TALKS TOO MUCH ERY TO RUSH THE PAVING WORK The count assessors meet here tomorrow to plans and get Editor Journal, Will the Republicans lie down and let the Democratic band wagon run over them? The present citizens of Emporia would hav no opportunity to vote for a Republican for office of Mayor of this city. Are there not enough men in the ranks of the Republican party who are interested e-iiough in good government to select and and elect a man who will be a representa-Uve citizen who will be in favor of carrying out the plan of the city engineer and provide good wholesome, pure drinking water for the thousands of men, women and children who have to depend upon the city's water and who have been sublet to disease from drinking impure water simply because the men in power have been prejudiced against the well system and were not able to see the need of pure water to prevent sickness? Cannot the Republican party find a man who will administer the city's business upon a business basis and collect the revenue of the city without compromising witl large concerns who bluff the city government out of its legal rights, a man who collects revenue from rich and poor Is there no Republican who can do things without shifting the responsibility on some one else or complaining that his hands are tied, because he! incompetent and irresponsible? This three ringed circus looks queer. The plan to give the Democrats, the mayor witl: out opposition and take chances on getting the commissioners looks queer. Why not let the Republicans have the mayor, and if you want the Deo-crats to have a job, let them have one of the commissioners Are the Republicans short on competent men and those who would be a credit to the city and the party? A Republican Voter.
