CONNORS, Jr. We do not expect during the present city eleetion ‘campaign, to engage in heated denunciation of our opponents’ platforms or promises, and we do not int:;% to employ slogans or catch words; but will make our appeal to reasonable and thinking voters; an appeal BASED ON THE FACTS. The fragrance of a rose would be the same under any other name. THE JOB! ‘We grant that all candidates, who have filed to date, are in favor of economy and against waste and extravagance. We trust they will give us credit for the same attitude. But “elimination of the Mayor’s salary” is a mere catch phrase. THE MAYOR RECEIVES NO SALARY missioner. AS SUCH. The small salary paid is paid to the street com- That office, under the present circumstances, is a very important one. It would not be so important, if not combined with the office of mayor, NOR WOULD IT BE AS EFFICIENT. RELIEF WORK REQUIRES CONSTANT ATTENTION OF THE HEAD OF THE CITY GOVERNMENT, OF SOMEONE IN AUTHORITY. It cannot be handled by any man, unless he has official authority as the DIRECT ELECTED REPRESENTATIVE of the voters. The matter of purchases, such as lumber, cement, gravel, etc., for city construc- tion and street work, involves constant attention and negotiation in order to get the most favorable prices. only by someone in authority. If such matters are not left in the hands of the mayor; elected by the people, with the authority of the council behind him, a mayor who can give his constant attention to them ,the result will not be a saving; but it will in all probability mean increased expense for ALL VOTERS:.for all voters, whether taxpayers or not, ulti- mately pay the bills, either directly in the form of taxes, or indirectly by increased rentals and other increased cost of living resulting from. increased taxes. Again the results cannot be obtained by a hired employee, but Think It Over and Investigate the Facts! VOTE THE PEOPLE'S TICKET - For Mayor— I. GOLDSTEIN For Councilmen— RALPH H.
