Fayetteville City Election

 

The annual election for Mayor and town council was held Wednesday. There was no opposition to the old ticket, but some of the candidates were very inclined to grumble at having to serve another term. However, they were held in line by the kind but firm determination of other citizens who were all horribly frightened lest the job might be thrust on them. The ticket is as follows:

 

For Mayor

1. W. Culpepper

 

For Councilmen:

1. P. Mize
2. H. Stephens

John Brodgen

1. D. Redwine
2. A. Lester

 

After a hard day’s work, the marshal managed to get enough voters to the polls to have these gentlemen elected, and they will be compelled to serve out the sentence.
