West Side
r
THIS IS THE DAY TO VOTE
Lively FIrIiI Is In Progress for Alderman
in llic Fiflli Ward-Oliver Will
Be Re-elected in Fifteenth.
Today is election day, just n little
one, but on tho West Side, and par
ticularly In tho Fifth ward, there Is a
b'lfr tot of Interest. In tills ward three
candidates have regularly presented
themselves for tho olllce of alderman.
Thuy are:. Uozrtlucl Davis, tho Jleiiul)
llcnn nominees M. U Blair, who is the
present nldorman, and Henjnmln Grlf
llths, tax collector of the ward. The
last twu nnmed . were defeated In the
ri'irular llomiullcnn caucus, but each
was not satlHfled and they now run as
independent candidates. The lmttlo la
bitterly waged. There is a strong per
sonal antipathy and the total vote to
day will probably exceed any previous
number.
In the Fifth, tisiiln, John D. Walker
is unopposed for common council. .Mr.
JOHN D, WAI.KKU,
Republican Cnndldute for Common Coun
cil In the Fifth Ward.
Walker's imlh is ti smooth one. Elec
tion olllct'i'S will be elected in most of
the wards.
In the Fifteenth ward, that ever In
teresting spot, Joseph E. Oliver, who
has st-rved so well as common coun
cilman of the district, has been re-nominated
by the Uepubllcans. There Is
not the least doubt of Mr. Oliver's elec
tion today. lie Is by far the stronger
candidate. J. II. McNulty belnR the
Democratic nominee. Mi. Oliver from
the time' that he first entered councils
has been prominent In advancing the
interests of the Fifteenth ward first, tho
West Side second, and the whole city
Hist, last and always. The fact that

street wanted to sell their properties
to the city and Incidentally run Hamp
ton street into a street car track and
that Councilman Oliver wouldn't ap
prove of this because he thought It was
wrong Is being used hgalnst him. Mr.
Oliver has explained why he oposed the
opening according- to the Uegan plans
ana he Is entitled to a belief in his
honesty. If there Is any way to better
Hampton street ho will do so.
In the Eighteenth Present Alderman
Hore, John C. Jones, Republican, and
John Kelley, jr., Independent, want to
be alderman, and both have put In
many weeks of hustling.
In the Twenty-llrst ward Harry Dale,
liepubllcan, will oppose Thomas Nor
ton, Democrat, who seeks n re-election
to common council. Mr. Dale Is a son
of M. II. Dale, who repeatedly carried
the ward. lie Is a graduate of of La
fayette college and for a number of
years has taken an active Interest in
the political affairs of tne Keyser val
ley region. Mr. Norton is well known
in the ward.
