The
approaching
election
period
ap-
pears
to east
no shadows
before
it.
This
state
of indifference
may
indicate
either
complete
confidence
in
the
council
or
may portend
a lack of faith in its
useful
ness.,
It is
a
fact,
however,
that
the
Councilisa great
deal
of
good
to
these
islands,
and
can
be of inestimable
value.
The Council
at
the
same
time
is
made
up of mep
and
upon
them
rests
the
pow-
er
to
make
the
local
legislature
potent
for what
is got out of it.
In the members
who
will shoirtly .be
retiring
there
are
some
who
have
displayed
that
public
spirit and broad
sense
of public
duty
as
have
gained
for
them
the
regard
and
confidence
of
their
fellow
council-men
and of us in the rank
and
file., ‘For
this
reason
it
is
perhaps
that
Christiansted
especially
is rather
quiet
over
the
elec-
tion of new members
for this® distriet
be-
cause
it
happens
that
Christiansted
boasts
of some
of
the
best
men
in
the
council.
Nothing has
been
heard of what
Frederiksted
is
doing.
Correspondence
and discussion
of po.iteal
pr.plems
and
matters
touching
the
elections
will be
welcomed
from
readers.
l.et
us
hear
from you.
Our condolences
are extended
to
Mr.
Quincy
Adams
ad family
on the
ocga-
sion
of Mrs.
Adams’s
death
which x
curred today as
a result of a relapse
from
a recent
attack of influenza.
The s.
s. Marinais due
on schegdule
time;
having 27 tons of cargo for
Chri tiansted
and 25 tons for Frederiksted.
We have
been
asked
to

that
the Industrial Band
will give
a
concart
on the wharf tomorrow
night.
By special
request
the
Wonder
Man
will be repeated
at the
theatre
this
eve-
ning at reduced
rates
of
admission
and
it is hoped
that
a
large
number
of per-
sons
will avail themselves
of the last
op-
portunity of seeing
this fine
picture.
