——–

FOUR COUNCILORS ONLY ARE TO BE ELECTED

——–

Hamann And

Siebenbrunner To Have No Opposition On Ballot.

——–

As forecast last week, only two wards will see a contest in the coming city election which will be held next Tuesday April 7.Councilors Siebenbrunner andHamann of the first and fourth wards respectively will undoubtedly be returned to the council without opposition, while Councilors Charles Kuehlbach of the third ward and George J. Saffert of the second ward must wait the counting of the ballots to determine whether they will take part in future council meets.

Three Candidates In Three

In the third ward there are three candidates for councilor. Charles Kuehlbach, the present incumbent is seeking reelection and opposed to him are G.W. Schlottman and Frank Woratschka. In the second ward the contest is between Wm. J. Hoss, Jr., and George Saffert, the present title holder. The contests in both of these wards are likely to be close and will no doubt draw much attention from the voters on election day.
