vestors in the stockyards enterprise. 1t
was a positive injury to Minneapolis.
The mayor OF Minneapolis should be
a sound, substantial, clear-headed nan.
ANY day conditions may arise, as a
great strike or similar disturbance, that
demand from the mayor of city like
Minneapolis the exercise of qualities OF
cool judgment. Mr. Eustis is not such
a man. 1t is not necessary to cite in
stances. Any one who can remember
whenever William Henry has come to
the front publicly knows it has been as
an efferYeScent enthusiast. ranting and
roaring without sense or Judgment.
Such a man is not good man for
mayor.
Esstis Summed Up.
William Henry Eustis' name has
never been mentioned. his voice has
never been heard in connection with
any question Of municipal government.
He has said nothing about such ques-
tons this year in the campaign. The
only reasonable deduction is that
William Henry's silence is the result
of his ignorance Of municipal questions.
William Henry is too sly to discuss queS-
tons lie knows nothing about. he has
never had experience in municipal af-
fairs; he has never said or done any
thing to indicate that he has ever
thought Of municipal questions.
To sum up the qualifications of Will
lam Henry Eustis for the mayoralty:
First-Selfshness In building up
fortune by any means i'll his power to
spend it in gratifying his taste for pub
lie display of himself in purchased
public Office.
SecOnd-His friendship for the cor
porate interests that have already fas-
tened themselves on the throat OF Min
neapolis.
Third-His lack of the cool, calm,
clear-headed judgment necessary to the
safe administration of the office OF
mayor Of Minneapolis.
Fourth-His absolute ignorance of
municipal business matters.
Fifth His arraut hypocrisy as shown
by his promises, through his campaign
workers, toward the Puritan element on
the one hand, and the dlsreputable ele-
me2t OH the other.
SiXth-HiS general untruStWorthiness
as evidenced by his steady refusal to
plant himself on one side OF the other
of the many questions, purely local
questions, which interest the people of
hlHIedpOllS anu WulCll Will QCIlIduu GilS
attention OF the mayor.
Let the qualifications of William
Henry EustiS' opponent be considered
for moment
Eustis' Opponent.
Aid. James G. Haynes has been a
member of the city council for two
years. Any unprecedented man will adj
nit that he ranks, in point of genuine
hoe oh oh
member of that body. He is man who
has always been interested in social and
economic questions, particularly those
relating to municipal affairs. In the
two years he has been in the council he
has been the most regular attendant of
the meetings of the body and has ia
miliarized himself with all the details of
municipal business. He Will bring to
the Office of mayor mind thoroughly
acquainted with the affairs of the city.
He has been steady worker for munich
pal economy and municipal improve
ment of the right kind.
He worked and voted to save the city
from being robbed, by William Henry
Eustis' campaign manager, John Good
now, and William Henry's staunchest
supporters, of $4,000 on the garbage
contract.
He worked and voted to provide de-
cent hospital for the poor of the city,
worked against the opposition of Will
lam Henry's party, led by the decoy
that landed the mayoralty nomination
for William Henry, Aid. Lowell.
Against Combines
He worked and voted to deliver the
city from the clutches of the gas monop-
oily and the electric combine, which Mr..
Eustis' party have fastened upon the
CITY for five years more at a cost of over
million dollars.
He worked and voted against the res
olution to deprive prospective citizens
from foreign lands of chance to earn
a living in Minneapolis, the resolution
that was supported by Mr.. Eustis'
party.
He is on record as opposed to the
granting of any more special privileges
and franchises to corporations and 9th
ers upon any terms.
He has arrayed himself upon the side
Of the working people of the city, as
shown by his speech and vote for the
eight-hour resolution.
He has shown himself to be a man
with opinions and with the courage to
voice his opinions; a man who is al
ways ready TO take a positive stand Oh
any question; man whose public rec
ord is without a flaw; man who is
Good, deliberate, digniied, safe, honest.
1t does not seem possible that the
people of Minneapolis can prefer man
with the qualifications of William
Henry EuStis to one like James G.
Haynes.
