Brown) Dear Mayor- Elect: Our congratulations! You have won at the hands of the voters one of the handsomest tributes ever given a mayoralt candidate in Seattle. You are not only elected, but you're elected enthusiastically, overwhelm- ingly; you are personally approved and your platform is indorsed—that is clear. While there were many elements in the peo- ple’s minds as they voted their decision, no doubt one major thought was a deep desire for a change, for a new deal at the city hall. Citizens felt that you would make more sweeping changes than would Dan Landon. You have resting upon you a mandate to go thru with the drastic pro- gram you praniaid The Star made clear thruout the campaign that it fought you because of certain undesirable elements which were supporting you and which we feared, in case of your election, would en- mesh you and the city in trouble. Then, frankly we thought, and still think, Dan Landon a better man for the job. But the voters plainly felt the other way about it. So The Star today pled ‘ou its full sup- port in every step you take for of betterment of attle, and we feel that the great mass of Seat- tle citizenship, both those who voted for you and those who did not, will back you to the Yimit as long as you keep on that line. We are sayin this in no spirit of polite acquiescence, but wi a sincere desire to see you make good for Seattle in a big, fine way. Repudiate the undesirables among your sup- porters. Make it clear to them at the start that you will ignore their special pleas. You have the opportunity to give Seattle the best administra- tion in its history; you have the intelligence, the courage. And so, Dr. Brown, go to it! THE EDITOR AND THE STAFF OF THE STAR. The Other Issues (EDITORIAL) Aside from the mayoralty issue, the election results were filled with significance. The election of Mrs. Henry Landes by the largest vote ever given a councilmanic candidate, the election of Mrs. Kathryn Miracle to a council seat and the dé- feat of Councilman Moore, incumbent, were that many additional proofs of dissatisfaction with the existing | city hall regime. .The triumph of the two women means the introduction for the first time into Seattle’s legislative chamber of a new and desirable civic influence. George F. Cotterill’s election as port commissioner insures a board which will carry on the best ideals of the great public enterprise which the community has built up. The voters are to be congratulated on the election of Dr. Sharples to the school board, The vote on charter amendments and propositions was what was generally expected. The Erickson measure, untimely and not economically sound in its provisions, was doomed from the start to the defeat it received. The failure of the Stadium-Montlake bridge project to receive the full 60 per cent necessary to carry is SEATTLE’S MAYOR-ELECT BROWN WILL Humane Socie Loses at Po for Pound Job Dr. Edwin James Brown, or-elect, announced Ws that he will leave Seattle 4 bly Friday for a vacation on 260-acre ranch near Prosser, in the Yakima valley.
