TWO CITY ADMINISTRATIONS,
Mayor Paddock Invites a Comparison and II is Made
Mayor John Peter Smith VS.. Mayor Buck
ley B. Paddock.

1.-THE man is liar or fool and he
may take either one OF the dilemma
he Hikes best"
SO said Mayor Paddock In his speech
opening the campaign.
He also said: Il have with me some
figures taken from the record. l shall
quote the record only. / challenge any
person, whoever he may be. to rcfute
any OF the figures or statements which
l shah present to you tonight"
The mayor then went on to say that
the expenditures for tho year ending
March 81, 1891, were s55s.5ti,15. This
was during Peter Smiths admins
tra,lon. He said farther that for the
year ending March 81. 1926, the total
current expenses for the city were
1924. n.
In order that truth and nothing but
truth may prevail. an expert municipal
accountant has thoroughly investigated
the record, and here is HIS report in
full. which the Gazette prints as OF
grave interest to all Fort Worth clu-
gems.
THE REPORT AND CONCLUSIONS.
After two weeks OF laborious investl-
cation and exhaustive research find
that Mayor Paddock Is one OF two
things, dangerous dcmagoguc aud
therefore a public enemy or denscly
ignorant accountant. and therefore to-
tally unit to occupy the position OF
mayer OF the city of Fort Worth.
lie may take either horn OF the
dilemma he gees nj. First, the taxable
values OF the city Of Fort Worth for
the ycar ending March q. 1891. were

81, 1895. 32o,loasi5 Tho tax rate iovlcd
by Peter Smiths administration FOR
the year ending March Fl. 1891. was
Sl.os on every 800 In property. Tho
tax rate OF Mayor Paddoclt'a admins
tratlon for the year ending March 81.
1895, was si.55 for the 500.

more than Peter Smith required.
