indebtedness incurred by the men
elected to office. 1t matters moth
ing to him whether the tax rate is
kept below three per cent and the
valuation below sixty per cent. if
after few years the creditors
of the city take his property.
Now we want, and we hope we
state the wishes of the majority, to
see man elected Mayor this time
who will be
ONE WITH THE PEOPLE.
When he makes his appoint
ments they must be such as the
people will approve, and if the
Council decline to confirm, let
them answer to. the people for their
neglect. Such a man elected
Mayor will turn deaf ear
to every machine politician as
such, and appoint to Office men in
dependent of race. politics or relig
ion, who are capable of filing the
position to which they are appoint
ed and have the confidence of the
people. 1t is best to have a man
elected Mayor who is sufficiently
well acquainted with the financial
condition of this city as to be able
to make statement that a poor
man can understand. He must be
strong enough not to be afraid to
exceed a three per cent. tax rate,
until he has forced the Board of
Assessors to truly value each and
every piece of property, without
fear or favor, as they have by oath
sworn to do. When this is done
there will be no fear of a three per
cent. tax rate. He must be strong
enough to be willing to place in
the tax levy every dollar appro-
priated by the Council, approved
by him, that is not raised in some
legitimate way other than by dis
counting notes. In other words,
let this city elect a man for Mayor
who will give the voters all the
facts, keeping nothing hidden.
Let us have man with the moral
courage to tell the taxpayers that
because of under valuations by the
Board of Assessors; or appropria-
tions by the Council; or notes of
previous administration maturing;
the tax rate will be such per
cent. If the tax payers object to
the rate as too high let them have
mass meeting and devise some
other way to relieve the city The
Mayor will have
DONE HIS DUTY,
honestly and truthfully, and will
have the confidence, respect and
support of the great majority.
The time is near at hand when
we must decide who shall be our
candidate. Let us look vel, that our
choice rest upon the one who not
alone has the knowledge of the
city's finances, but will truthfully
and honestly keep in touch with
the people by taking them always
and absolutely into his confid-
ence.
P. S. Has our present Mayor
done his duty to the taxpayers in
the above particulars !? Let all
citizens consider this question.

A Check upon Corruption.

The typical newspaper of to-day
is far from perfect, and none know
its deficiency better than those
who print it. But when its imper-
fections have been named and cri-
ticised as they should be, the fact
remains that it is to-day the great
est check upon official corruption
to be found in the land--Wood-

Indignant About the City Pat
rOnage.

The article in last weeks RECORD
entitled Zone Sided City Patron
age" may not have had any effect
upon those who control the distri-
button of political "pap" but it
certainly set many minds to think
inc, and we have feltfattered at the
Indignation in our behalf literally
expressed by many business men.
We believe Mayor Brown, who we
know appreciated the stand we
took in his behalf, was willing that
this office should share the city
printing and advertising with his
own, and that he gave instruction
to that effect, and his only mistake
was in failing to see that his IN
structions were carried out, for at
the end of the first IL months the
total amount, out of the hundreds
of dollars worth of city printing,
which came to us did not exceed
eight dollars and fifty cents At
the close of the second twelve
month this amount has been IN
creased to $o8.75.
Many eyes will open when we
publish the complete list showing
to whom and in what amounts the
City's money has been paid during
the past two years.
The following letter is one of
several which have reached rs dur
ing the week
Editor CITY Record
DEAR SIR: Your article showing to
what extent you are Disseminated

pathize with you from the fact that am

apply.

Washington. March Io.-Postmaster
General Bissell IS accredited with the an
nouncement that no local business man
need apply for postofices under his ad-
ministration. He objects to commission
ing local business men as postmasters,
for the reason that the actual duties are
performed by irresponsible and often in
competent clerks and substitutes. Post
masters under Mr.. Bisseu must promise
to devote their entire time to the work.
and personally keep strict Office hours.

On Wednesday m ,tion was made

On Wednesday motion was made
in the senate to swear IN the en-
crossing and enrolling clerks-that
meant to put them upon the rolls, so
they would be under pay. Objection
was made on the republican side that
it would be weeks before there would
be any work whatever for any clerk
on either committee, and as economy
was desired the men should not be
under pay until there was something
for them to do. The objection was
overruled, however, Senator Israel
being the only democrat voting with
the republicans, and every populist
opposing the objection. The clerks
were sworn in and are now drawing
81 per day. No bills can be enrolled
until they are passed, and it will be
well into the session before there is
any work for the clerks. Economy
and reform are nice things to talk
about before election.
