Mayor Dunno claims that 10 are avowed
champions OF municipal ownership and
that he VIII have much less difficulty
I'm passing measures relating to that doe
trine through the city council than has
been his fortune heretofore.
The faction opposed 10 municipal own
ership declares that II still holds the con-
troll OF the council and that Mayor Dunno
will have no greater success In the future
than he has had In the past.
Besides the question OF municipal
ownership the issue was made in many
or the aldemanic contests OF whether the
saloon licenses OF the city shall be $500
or 5000. The law figure was in existence
up TO March when the city council
passed an ordinance raising the amount
10 $1,000.
The liquor interests made a strong fight
against every alderman who had voted
for the license OF $1,000 or the 10 men
against whom they put their influence y
were elected and three defeated
The license issue was emphasized by
the trade organizations OF Chicago. At
the wind-up OF the campaign the Chi
cago Commercial association issued a cir
cular letter 10 its sustaining members
urging their support or the IL "high IL
cense" aldermen who were up for re-
election. The association called attention
TO the fact that through the efforts or
these aldermen the city has acquired 1900
additional policemen, and hints that such
public services should not be forgotten.
Members were urged TO vote regardless
OF party affiliations. The letter follows:
The board of directors, believing that
they voice the consensus OF opinion OF the
association, respectfully recall 10 your
mind the marltnrious services performed
by certain aldermen i'm bring about the
increase OF the saloon license fee TO $1,000
Such honest public Services should not
be forgotten on election day. If our city
Is 10 chow such appreciation will en-
courage the further uplifting OF her gov
ernment.
Where no other important questions
stand in the way IL would seem that every
sustaining member OF this association
should not only vote but work for the re-
election OF those aldermen (without re-
gard TO party) who made IL possible for
our city 10 have 1000 more policemen.

Three propositions were submitted TO
the voters. the first OF which was: l"Shall
the city Of Chicago proceed to operate
street railways" This proposition re-
quired co per cent OF the total vote cast
in order to become effective. The total
vote was approximately 23i,l7l. OF this
number the proposition TO proceed to the
ways obtained only 12osll votes. 1872
short OF the necessary three-ffths.
The second proposition involved the ap-
proval OF an ordinance previously passed
by the city council providing for the issue
OF street railway certificates in amount
not to exceed SIS 1000 900 for the pur-
chase ownership and maintenance OF the
street railways. This was carried by
about $4,000 votes.
The third proposition. which was simply
on the question OF public policy and has
no legal effect whatever, IS. Shall the
city council proceed without delay 10 Sc
cure the municipal ownership and opera
tion OF the street railways under the
Mueller law instead OF granting fran
chises 10 private companies?" This prop
oSition was carried Dy ABOUT 3SuO votes.
Mayor Dunno construed the passage Of
the SIS. 900 900 certificates and public poll
ICY propositions as a victory for municipal
ownership. but expressed his disappoint-
ment at the defeat OF the proposition for
municipal operation. He said.
II admit that l am disappointed be-
cause the victory is not complete. The
important proposition. however. at the
present time is for the issuance OF the
certificates, and this has been carried.
Ia regret very much that we did not
get the necessary majority 10 enable us
10 operate the street railway lines. But
this will not prevent us from again going
before the people after we have the street
railway lines and asking for the necessary
authority 20 operate. The people will
vote FOR operation with a big majority at
the proper time"

Thus the regular payrolls OF the de-

OF the several departments for the year.

posed to take precedence in governing tho
actions of city officers, this step has been
taken and there is no telling where the
matter will end.
