uNWARRANTED ASSUMPTION.

1t is quite evident that the write
of the mayors second message wrote
what he was told TO write rather thar
what be thought or knew to be tn,
truth, else he could not have penneC
such a paragraph as this.
4 do not believe that methods
of obstruction meet with the ap
proval OF our citizens, and in the
one Instance in which they were
given an opportunity to disap-
prove Of such a course they have
done SO in positive terms | feel
that the late election in all those
wards In which this administra-
ton was brought in question. |
received the approval of the citi-
zens, and ii will he my effort to
merit the confidence shown in
me.
OF course, the zone instance" refer
red TO In the foregoing Is the defeat
OF Alderman Fuller, whom the mayor
was pleased to denounce as an Oh
structlonist. There are only two
notable instances in which the ALTER
man was an obstructiUlist from the
mayors point of syiew II was when
he opposed the contamination of the
scandalous firehose contract and
when he opposed the mayors seeming
determination to make the city goy
ernment party 70 the inspection in
fanny In the one case the alderman
acted as guardian for the financial
interests of the city and in the other
as the guardian for the moral wei
fare Of the city; and it is impossible
to believe that the people of his ward
intended to rebuko him for this To
say that the alderman obstructed
public improvements would be to fly
in the face of the record, for there is
no line in the published proceedings
of the council where he opposed any
public Improvement. and these pro
ceedings do show that he proposed
and pushed to a successful issue
more Improvements for his ward
than were made in any other ward in
the city. As a matter Of fact the
mayor himself was the persistent oh
structionist in matters proposed for
the public good by Alderman Fuller,
Studiously ignoring all resolutions OF
fered by that alderman, even when I'm
animmsly passed by the city council
One case in point, Of many that might
be mentioned, is the resolution offer
ed by Alderman Fuller rejecting the
lump bid of a syndicate for the up
town Railroad street lots, and direct
ing the mayor 10 appoint committee
to appraise those lots in order that
citizens owning ahutting property
might buy them at reasonable prices
The mayor held up this resolution for
eight months, until the citizens who
were interested in the matter became
impatient with the delay and demand
ed action
But the mayors claim that tae
people rebuked obstructive tactics al
the recent election becomes ridleu
lous to the point of Stiffness when
taken In connection with the results
in the First and Second wards. the
only wards where the mayors men
were elected. the successful candi
dates being men whose only claim t.
distinction in the public service and
as private citizens is. that they were
uncompF0mising. unrea8oning. stub.
born sullen and blind obstructionsts
and succeeded in defeating some oi
the most important public improve
ments.
