INDEPENDENT CITIZENS TICKET.
Filed by Petition With the City Clerk
YESTERDAY.

The formal opening of the city
campaign was made yesterday when
the petitions of a complete inde-
pendent citizens ticket was filed
with City Clerk Bickford. The tick
ct in it's entirety is as follows:
For Mayor-Marcus L. Fay.
For alderman at atlarge-P.A.Coffey
For alderman at large-M. Eddy
For municipal judge-C. E. Nelson
For special judge-Rod Mcdonald
For treasurer-A. Hawkinson.
Alderman 1st ward-A. Dahl.
End ward-Conrad Mattson.
3rd ward-Edward G. Bush.
4th ward-B. o. Wiggen.
The ticket as a whole is self-com-
mandatory, embracing an element
of well-known business men and re-
spected citizens.
It IS understood that w. H. Eaton,
present mayor, will head an oppo-
sition ticket, and that many of the
members OF the present administra-
ton will again seek the suffrage of
voters on the ticket headed by Mr..
Eaton.

been $444,A23;91, an average income
of only a few cents less than $2,468
per month. THIS would amount to
$4,000 per year. or $7,6D greater
than the yearly income of any pre-
vious administration. And in one
and a half years this increase Of
revenue would reach the sum of
$11,445, practically accounting for

Through the courtesy of City
Clerk Bickford the Enterprise is3en-
abled to- give its readers some sta
tistical facts relative to the receipts
and expenditures of the city during
several past administrations, these
facts being Of especial significance
at this time, when the attention of
the voter is called to the statement,
in the official organ, that "no more
glowing compliment could be paid
Mayor Eaton than the mere men
ton of the present financial condi-
ton of the city. More than 81 900

urer Pratt. Two years ago when the
reins Of government were taken by
Mayor Eaton there wasn't cent in
the treasury and the city was in
debt. These are facts that cannot
be disputed" u, -.
The annual report of City Record

at the time of taking Office by the
present administration, there was
cash on hand in the treasury the
sum of 81, ,372.58. The report fails to
bear out the statement that "there

led to his detention was a horse trade
which he made with a man named Bill
Chambers. He traded horses and
Chambers gave a watch and $25 in ad-

at the Rees livery barn, but failed to do
it. Chambers became alarmed and look

suit that a complaint was sworn out
before a Justice.

sale of the Nevada, Mo, baseball fran
chise to Topeka: Franchises IN the
Missouri Valley league are not going
begging, the Nevada club which was
dropped at the meeting of the magnates
Tuesday night being snapped up yes
terday, by Topeka. which was a per-
siStent applicant for a team last winter
when the reconstruction of the circuit
was on. The team will play its first
game in Topeka July 10, at which time
it was scheduled to return to Nevada.
Topeka will probably make one of the
strongest cities in the league. The Kan
sas capital has been without a team in
an organization for some time and the
article of baseball put up by the Mis-
souri, Valley league will undoubtedly
catch the kansans from the jump. The
placing of the Nevada franchise was
left in President Shively's hands and,
as usual, he landed in a hurry. There
are two other applicants for teams in
the Missouri Valley, but it is hardly
probable that there will be any more
changes this year, as the circuit now
seems to be strong at every point
