Editor Prank Cates of ! the
Bartlett Tnbunk has been soli-
cited to make the race for Alder-
man in the little city of Bartlett.
After anetition had been signed
including every man in the city
and many who resided in the ad-
jacent territory, Frank modest-
ly declined to serve, or allow his
name to be used by reason of. the
fact that business was too press-
ing in the land and printing busi-
ness. Temple Mirror.

bat inasmuch as we have been
accused of being a land grafter,
we didn't want to place oursel
ves in a position to he accused of j gchool building to a number
being an aldermanic grafter.

a new correspondent up this way
as we see in the last issue of that
A Splendid Lecture.
Uoon invitation and undor the
ausmces of the Woman's Depart-
ment Club of Bartlett, Miss Gear-
ing, 'of State University, visited
Bartlett last Saturday and de-
livered two very important and
instructive lectures on Home
Economics.
In the afternoon she was en-
tertained in the home of Mrs. W
W. Walton, at which were sev-
eral memDPrs of the club and
other guests who had the pleas-
ure of hearing a most interest-
ing discourse from this talented
lady, and all expressed them-
selves in the highest degree of
the intellectual feast they were
accorded, likewisf the royal en-
tertainment characteristic of the
hostess.
In the evening Miss Gearing
delivered a lecture at the High
of
our ditizens, which was well re-
ceived and highly appreciated.
The Tribune regrets that there
was not a larger attendance to
RE-ELECTED MAYOR
Mr. E. F. Keiley Returned
To That Office For 10th
Consecutive Time.
As a result of Tuesday's elec
tions Mr. E. F. Kolleywas re-
elected to the office of Mayor of
the city of Bartlett.
This means that Mr. Keiley for
the tenth consectutive term has
been returned by our citizens to
the highest office in our local
city government.
It also means that the little
contest, although clean, and
absolutely void of, mudslinging,
has come to a close and both
sides, not factions, have joined
hands to once more harmonize
and pull together for a bigger
and better Bartlett. No race
for office, though hard fought
and bitterly contested, was ever
made in our city.
Mr. Keiley, advanced as he is
in years, may or may not live to
serve out the full two years of
his new term (may God in his
mercv SDare him to do so,) but
should the former be His de-
vine will, this grand old man
will have given twenty years of
his life and labor, for many years
without compensation, to the
seryice of the people, and above
all other is due the credit for the
progress we have made. Should,
as we say, he be permitted
to be with us till the expiration
of his new term he will enjoy
the distinction of being not only
the oldest, in years, of any
mayor of anv city in Texss, but
will also serve a longer period of
years consecutively as mayor,
than any other man in our states
