practised for considerable length
of time by one of the city Off
Gals, and with the offender still
unconvicted. Mr.. Kirkland took
charge and managed things in
business-like manner from the
start. Instead of spending large
sum of money in procuring the
conviction of j. H. Pine, he com
pleted the prosecution against
that offender at cost OF only
800. The man was convicted, and
is now serving his sentence.
Mr.. Kirkland next gave his at
tention to reducing the city's
debts, realizing that by so doing
the interest on those debts would
be lessened, and the city's ex-
penses curtailed. In this respect
he proved himself to be especially
skillful and efficient. During the
one year that he has been in of
flee $4,000 of the city's indebt-
edness in bonds and outstanding
orders have been paid; $4,000 of
interest bearing debts have been
wiped from the books. A most re-
markable record for a city of this
size. 1t was done quickly, grad
ually, and almost unknown to the
general public. On the other
hand, taxes have been decreased
the levy has been reduced from
$1.2O to $1.10. At the same time,
the city has been well kept up,
clearly conditions have been
maintained and all improvements
asked for have been made. In or
der to do all Of this it has been
necessary to practice reasonable
economy. All wastefulness has
been done away with; all needless
expenditures have been avoided.
In fact, this has been one of the
most economical administrations
that this city has ever had.
Law and order have been main
tanned with almost unprecedented
perfection. We cannot find an
other city of it's size in the cOun-
try, with so many open saloons,
where there are so few disorders
and disturbances. Fights, af-
trays, brOils and riots are almost
unknown. At the same time the
police court returns in fines and
costs have been greater than at
any other period in the history of
the city; showing that in those
cases where there have been in
fractions Of the city ordinances,
the offenders have paid the full
penalties for their otfenses, and
the city treasury has received the
benefit Of their fines.
All things considered, then, we
see that Mr.. Kirkland has made a
record surprising that Of any
other Mayor that this city has
ever had. He has been a faithful
worker. conscientious officer, an
impartial judge, an honest, eco
nomical. conservative and efficient
financial manager.

Full Account of Republi-
can City Convention

The Republican municipal con-
vention was held last evening in
City Hall. More than 300 cltl-
zens were present, making proba-
bly, the largest city meeting OF a
political character ever held here.
Chairman Dye called the meet
ing to order, and then recognized
Mayor Kirkland, who made a
statement regarding certain pub
lie charges that an attempt would
be made to defeat certain candi-
date by unfair means! The Mayor
asserted that these charges were
deliberately false, and had been
made solely for the purpose OF
causing dissension and destroying
the harmony that was known to
exist in the ranks of the party.
He concluded by saying that the
only agreement that had been
made in discussing the organiza-
ton was regarding the tellers to
be appointed; that he had asked
the gentleman proposed for chair
man to have each of the candi-
dates for Collector and Treasurer
name one of his friends for teller
in order thta the counting Of the
vote might be absolutely satisfac-
tory and fair.
The chairman then named F. L..
Blackmarr for temporary chair
man and Roy Sutor for temporary
secretary. On motion, the tempo
rary organization was made perm
anent.
On motion, the chairman was
authorized to appoint a commit
tee of three on organization and
order Of business.
The chairman appointed to such
committee j. H. Strickling, j. T.
Loughnep and G.. E. Bailey.
The committee retired and pre-
pared their re port and submitted
it to the convention. This report
covered the business to be trans
acted by the convention and was
accepted in due form.
The chairman then called for
nominations for the office Of
Mayor. Attorney Clifford V.
Church placed the present Mayor
IN nomination in the following
well delivered and well received
address:
Mr.. Chairman and Gentlemen
of this Convention There is
probably no other official that
comes in. such close touch with
the welfare of all classes of citi-
zens as the Mayor of a city. And
this is especially true of Mayor
of a small city, where he is also
the Judge of the Police court
The functions of the office of
Mayor are threefold; and in this
respect it is probably the only Of
fee in the land wherein are COM
bined the three great divisions of
our system of gOvernment-the
Legislative, the executive and the
judicial. AS the presiding officer
of the City Council, directing its
actions and influencing its pro-
cedure, the Mayor is an active
power in the city legislation, and
is thus a part of the legislative
branch. AS the Mayor proper.
directing the police and instruct
ing the patrolmen and other
guardians of the peace. he at
tends to the execution of the laws
and regulations, and is thereby
the chief Of the executive branch.
AS the Judge of the Police court,
where he tries those persons
charged with the violation of city
ordinances. he attends to the in
depreciation of the laws, and is
therefore the head of the judi
