For Mayor James p. Baxter.
To the Editor Of the Press:


Portland, February s, 1897.
Fer many years we have heard OF the
1esirabili5y CT interesting our leading
men in local politics and placing at the
helm those who hHvs demonstrated their
ability in the successful management of
their own affairs. The axiomatic truth
Of the saying: Success is the measure
Of mans ability il reliable in pri-
vate business affairs, should be equally
the measure of our public officials.
Mayor James z. Baxter fills the re-
qnireinsnt Theoretically IN every respect;
Luz NEST OF all, practically. His
acknowledged ability IS business man
and scholar. his successful experience in
city affairs, his broad -guage ideas and
r-reaohing plans for the Improvement
Of ouE beautiful city. all point to the
fact tlnt he must not be permitted to
retire to private life at this juncture.
much as he may desire to do so.
In fact, is he not just the man we
have looked for for years to occupy the
Mayors chair. and now that we have
him we must keep him.
Let committee of citizens organize
and tender the nomination to him again,
MS a recognition to Mayor Baxter per-
sonally, as well as of the Importance of
securing such ability as his in this
office.
With this proposed increased powers to
be delegated to the Mayor, who can more
iudioiously and oouserVativsly interpret
them than one who has given such full
and unsel6sh study to the subject and
attention to the duties Of the position.
1t is ardently to be hoped that the city
of Portland will be fortunate enough to
have his services for another term, at
least e.
We have no use for wooden man in
the Mayors chair, nr one who can he
mistaken for one. individuality, pro-
gressiye, honest management such as
we are now having is what We must
continue to have.
Mayor Baxter should serve at least one
term under the new charter for which
we hope when unrestricted By old-fogy
methods his fine ability will find even

and that it has succeeded in cutting
down competition to an inaig-

ever, that consumers have suffered on
account of it, the testimony going to
show that the price of sugar is lower
than before the business was consolidat-
ell. Nevertheless these great aggrega-
tions are not without injurious features.
They tend to place the control of the me-
cessaries of life in the hands of few,
they lessen the opportunities for indi-
yidual enterprise, and divide the peo.
pie into two classes. masters and SER
wants. making it practically impossible
for the latter to tecome the former.
Even did the proprietors of these gi-
gantic com binations always success

opportunities. Perhaps there is no way
