value of city warrants when they ac-
tually have decreased in value during
Anderson's administration "a very

Major Anderson is demanding a re-
election as mayor on his official and
unofficial opposition to the Water,
Light and Power Co. Those who do
not support him are by him denounced
as enemies of the people, and as the
tools of the Water, Light & Power Co
Indeed Major Anderson is of the opin-
ion that the Water, Light & Power Co.
has corrupted in one or another way
everyone who is against him. On this
line he appeals to the voters to r%e-elect
him mayor, being the one incorrupti-
BILE man in Hot Springs.
Now I take this opportunity to state
to the people of this city that Mayor
Anderson has not protected the inter
ests of the city of Hot Springs in a
business like way, or in any other way
against the claims of the Water, Light
& Power Co. The city of Hot Springs
during Mayor Anderson's two years.
term has not paid a cent for water and
light, and these bills for water and
light now in Mayor Anderson's hands
amount to s3957.OO. Why did not
Mayor Anderson have these bills set
tied in some way? Why did he leave
them to his successor to settle? And
why does he go before the public with
the hue and cry that those who are OPP
posed to him mean to pay these bills,
these unjust bills, and that his oppo-
nents are in the pay OF the Water,
Light & Power Co.?
Major Anderson was not a candi-
date for reelection. He and his
friends said SO repeatedly Suddenly
he changed his mind, and is very in
dignat because other people do not
veer around as often as he does, like a
weather cock. I'll am elected mayor
Of Hot Springs I shall not approve the
bills of the Water, Light g. Power Co.
or 9th r bills that are not made in
compliance with a legal contract and
for an honest consideration and un-
til this is made clear by an examina-
ton and approval of the board of AL
dermen. I am a taxpayer and don't
propose to pay taxes for illegal or cor
rupt bills. The Water, Light & Power
Co. has no greater influence over me
than it has over Major Anderson. I do
not pose as the only one honest man
in this neck of the woods and try to
prove it by charging others with being
corrupt and corruptible.
The bills of the Water, Light &
Power Company, made during Mayor
Anderson's term and left unsettled
amount to s3957.OO. Why has not
Mayor Anderson called a meeting of
the Council to dispose of these bills
and not purposely leave them unsettled
with the purpose of charging that it is
the intention of his enemies to elect
some one on his place who will vote to
pay these bills? Why don't Mayor
Anderson take hold of them in a bust
ness like way and have them acted on,
rejected or approved?

to n whit of credit, let them look
over the council records and talk with
councilmen about the matter. He
doesn't deserve any creditor whatever
reduction has been made in expenses.
The nominating petition of DR.. Har-
gems as a republican was circulated
and signed by about 100 property own
ers of Hot Springs, and just before it
was filed with the auditor Mayor An
derson had u petition gotten up nom
mating him as a republican, and had
it signed by his o and police force
and had it filed with the city auditor
just before the Hargens petition, so
that two men YER nominated for
mayor OF the republican ticket.
Mayor Anderson contended that be-
cause his petition was in first he was
the only regular republican nominee
although his petition did not have one
fourth as many republicans signed to
it as did Hargen's petition. Yet to
avoid contention the Hargen's petition
was withdrawn and a new gotten
up nominating him on the citizens
ticket. But here's the inconsistency
of the mayors notions. He commended
that two names could not be on the
republican ticket for mayor and that
his must go on because he was named
ten o. fifteen minutes before Hargens.
But several days ago j. B. Parks was
named OF the republican ticket for po-
lic~e::justice, and few days afterwards
DIG. Grippen, one of OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
night watchers, was also nominated by
petition for police justice on the re-
publican ticket. This latter nomina-
ton Mayor Anderson held was proper
and that two names could go on the
ticket under the same party head and
for the same ofice-but they couldn't
for mayor. However, Mr.. Grippen has
seen fit to change his nomination to
that of city justice at the last moment.

SIN YEARS.
Grew Rapidly Worse-Doctors Did No

Mrs. Adam Stats. Mequon, Wis. in
a recent letter to DIR. Hartman writes.
Hot Springs weekly star. (Hot Springs, S.D.) 1892-1917, 1898-04-15

The citizens ticket committee believe
that a mayor should be a property
owner of the city. 1t is strange that
any otherthan a property owner should
aspire to the position. One must be
deeply interested in a city in order to
properly represent the people in all
that may come before the mayor for
his consideration.
Does anyone believe that Mayor An
derson has fairly represented the PEG.
pie as mayor when he has almost con-
tinuously been out of harmony with
the council? The councilmen are
elected by the people direct to repre-
sent them and they usually understand
pretty we'll what their constituents
want. At first a few councilmen be-
lieved-as many others did-that
Mayor Anderson was contending for
what was right and best. but they
changed their minds and now most of
the councilmen are favoring the cleo.
tion of DIR. Hargens. These council
men have very carefully studied all the
Questions that have come before them
and have acted as they deemed best
for the constituents and the city, and
it IA contrary to the will of Ander-
son, who sought every means to defeat
the wishes of the councilmen. The
truth is that the council finally real
lied that mayors action was all bun
connie and not intended for the best
interests of the city or the people. He
was dallying along with matters that
were of vital Importance to taxpayers.
and which, if prolonged, was likely to
bring about serious and expensive liti-
CATION, greatly to the impairment of
the city's welfare. But it has been
suggested that Mayor Anderson pre-
ferred litigation, he being IL lawyer.
However. the very fact that Anderson
had a falling out a with Il friendly
council is sufficient to warranted
people is not re-electing him to the
office of mayor.

In b~olstering up the Anderson rule
his strikers, in trying to show the
amount of warrants that have been is
sued. neglect to say that there are
$500 worth of bills now before the
council to be allowed. Anderson must
figure in the whole expense if he de-
S Tres to be fair. Five thousand seven
hundred dollars added to what has al
ready been expended isn't such a won
derful economical administration, even
if Mayor Anderson should assume all
the glory for whatever reduction has
b.en made.

LESSON OF GUANTANAMO.

Copyrighted 1898 by the Associated

 On board the Associated Press dis patch boat Dauntless. Guantanamo Bay, Tuesday, June 14.-c1ia Kings ton, June 15, a. m.)-However un- pleasant the experience and unjusti- fed by precedent the landing of a small detachment of marines, mostly raw men, in the enemy's country, has taught some lessons to officers and men here and possibly also to the au- thorities at Washington. It has shown the Spaniards to be daring bush fight CTS and has proved that every Amer ican camp must be compactly built and well protected to resist night attacks as though in an Apache country.
 It developed some small defects in the navy guns under service conditions and has shown that, given free rein with repeating rifles, 500 nervous troops can waste 10000 rounds of am- munition, killing shadows, in a single night and not think even then that they have done much shooting. Though the sixteen Spaniards found by Lieutenant Neville's men wore regular uniforms, most of those seen in the daylight attacks wore scarcely anything except big plantain leaves bound around their foreheads in lieu of hats This acted as an effective disguise in the bush.
 The others were stripped to pair of dirt colored trousers, tied branches around their waists, reaching shoulder high, and moving very cautiously they could even cross open ground without being detected, though some of them were caught at the game. Another trick was to make a moving screen of two or three big palm leaves, almost impossible to detect where the stunted palm everywhere rises out of the chaparral. The Cuban auxiliaries were most useful in pointing out these tricks.
