The Labor Journal Backs H. W. North for Mayor

It is seldom a candidate for public office appears who can appeal to all classes of people as the present candidate for mayor of the city of Everett, H. W. North. Too often we have been compelled to apologize to the voting public because such and such a man was not all that he should be. Things are changed now under our direct primary system and we can analyze the character and public record of a candidate and judge him strictly on his merit. Mr. North is happily a man that can be put to any scrutiny without finding any flaw in his record. From many years' experience at physical toil he is in close sympathy and touch with working people; he knows their conditions and needs. As a contractor he has been brought in touch with the business world and of necessity has had to learn the details of competitive business life. His personal knowledge of daily toil and of business methods fits him in an admirable way to administer the affairs of the city so that both classes of citizens may receive equal justice.
