DOPE FOR THE FANS.

Down at Decatur they are of the
opinion that Ross Thornton will yet
come back TO the fold Il is said that
the final offer made him is believed
to be all that any Central league team
will be willing TO pay for his services
and he now has the option of accept
ing it or not play ball at all. Conf
Gence is asserted that he will be able
o graduate to faster company at the
end of the season if he keeps up the
Improvement that has characterized
his work in the last two years.

The MAYORS MESSAGE

one-third more than it would have
been 10 have done th- same work
for private individuals, and I desire
to recommend to you, that the city
purchase wagon and team, and IN
the futute do all the hauling with
it. ! do not believe, gentlemen OF
the City Council, that we should
allow the street commissioner to
use his own team. There have
been many accusations Of graft
made against the present street
commissioner, that he was working
the city for all the money he could
get out Of it, and at this time
charges against him are on file with
the City Clerk. As to whether
there is in fact anything to these
accusations or to these charges, |
am not prepared 10 say bu1 u
there is, it due TO the fact that he
was given an opportunity BY the
City Coucil to impose on the city
in that way. believe that a days
work in this departments should be
the same as if the work was being
done for private individual In
fact, / see no reason why We should
not demand that the employees in
all the department Of the city gov
ernment should do full days
work.
Hoping that you will consider
these suggestions in the spirit in
which they are given, and .hat @ft-
er you have considered them well
to take sach action on them as you
think to the best interests Of the
city,
