Lazarus is holding its first-ever mayoral elections in May 1869, six months after the November 1868 elections that installed the first-ever town council and town marshal.
As of March 1869, three men have thrown their hats into the ring:
- Jack McCabe, owner of the McCabe Bank of Lazarus and partner in the McCabe-Langdon Land Company.
- Charlie Meeker, owner of the Thunder Horse saloon, which boasts the cheapest whores in town.
- Jacob “Zee” Zedock, the well-liked town barber who’s backed, rumor has it, by Mexican friends of his who can’t run for office themselves.
Their posters are all over town. You can’t miss them.
