THE RIGHT KIND OF MAYOR In view of the near approach of the city election,the people of Ross- land are already looking around for the most suitable man for mayor and, at the same time, for men who will work heartily as aldermen with suchaman. The city has already grown to the first rank among those of the province and there can be no doubt in the mind of any man who reads the signs of the times that it is destined tq have a rapid and con- tinuous growth. Rossland has been fortunate in having an adminis- tration under whose direction the ‘municipal government has pushed forward public improvements with commendable vigor. Let che citizens see that they make no worse choice at the coming election and let them choose better men if the are available.
