THE KLFCTORS OF THE CITY OF CHILLIWACK, Ladies and Gcntleme: I wish to state briefly the reasons for my withdrawal from the Alder manic contest: After the withdrawal of Alderman Barber, it left but six candidates for five vacancies and as there was neither a moral prin ciple or any great economic issue involved, it seemed absuru mac six en should engage in a contest ior five seats, especially as the Mayor, School Trustees and Police Commissioners had all been elected by ac clamation, and that the logical course was for one more candidate to drop out, and allow the other five to take the seats, tnereny sarins the city the expense of an eles Uon.

And concluding further that under the ci.cumstances, the Interests of the city would not thereby be adversely affected, 1 accoraiuB'y from the contest. I wish to take this opportunity of fhanVine vou for your support and co operation during the time I serv nn th Council board and to assure you that win cuiiiiuu to take an active interest at all times and under all circumstances In any project which has for Its object the advancement of the Citizens of our City and District My services will continue to De at the disposal ot the citizens at any time they consider they can use them to advance the Interests ot our fair city.
