TEN as 1t now il and that no better

He States His Views on watsrworki
and Prohibition.
To The Citizens Law and Order Commit
ke.and the Citizens Of Abilene;
In accepting the nomination for
mayor Of the city Of Abilene at the
approaching election, which was en-
tirely unsought and unexpected, re-
turn my sincere thanks for the honor
conferred.
Having accepted, ! shall certainly
do all can during the campaign to
secure the success Of the rest Of the
ticket, and il elected shall strive to
aid and encourage all the city officers
to promote the welfare and prosperity
Of the entire city.
As a citizen and taxpayer ! am
equally interested with all others in
low taxation, and as mayor would
endeavor to administer the affairs Of
the city in conservative and econom-
ical manner and would do all in my
power to reduce public expenses and
the burden Of taxation to the lowest
possible limit.
Itis conceded that the waterworks
problem is one Of earnest and press
ing Importance, and knowing that the
present rates are based on values dur
ing prosperous times, ] believe the
time has come to secure a decided re-
duction to correspond with the pres
ent conditions.
With general revenue Of less than
six thousand dollars available for city
expenses, it is evident to anyone that
the city is not able to pay even the
present compromise rental OF four
thousand dollars per annum, and l
believe that next year, when the con-
tract must be renewed, the amount
paid for hydrant and fountain rentals
should be reduced to twenty-five hum
bred dollars year.
Ii elected, it will be my purpose to
secure the impartial enforcement Of
all the laws, and especially the pro-
hibitory law, which is now being
openly and shamelessly violated.
believe that with the reduction OF
water rental and the judicious and
economical administration Of public
affairs, the revenue derived from the
unpopular and burdensome occupa-
ton tax and the illegal liquor traffic
will no longer be needed,
Respectfully Yours,

Wheat Conditions,

Wheat is reported by those familiar
with the matter Us better in the north
part Of the county than the south,
owing, it is thought, to the heavy
rain received in north Dickinson I'M
mediatcly after seeding last fall.
South Dickinson did not got this rain
to pack the ground and the plant has
been somewhat injured by the drouth
and wind. This is more especially
true OF the southeast and southwest
portions, the middle tiers Of town
ships faring better. This country gets
rain enough II II could only be dis.
tributed rightly
