The last gun of the municipal cam
paign in behalf of the candidacy OF
Walker Ingraham fer mayor, was fired
in the Plaza last night when a large
crowd listened to addresses by Hon.
E. c. Maxwell, Frank Radcliffe, Hon
w A. Blount, Cade ShacklefOrd and
City Attorney John B. Jones. Con
trary to expectations, Mr.. Ingraham
did not make \ ssi9Fsssss although he
was present upon the stand. The
principal addresses were made by Mr..
Maxwell and Mr.. BlOunt, and both
were mastery efforts, devoted to dis
secting the past record of Mayor
Bliss, comparing it with the record of
Mr.. Ingraham, and dilating upon the
fitness of the latter for the Office of
mayor of the Deep Water City. The
meeting was presided over by Mike
OLeary in his graceful and witty man.

Mr. Maxwell, the first speaker, GCs
clared that Mayor Bliss did not stand
for any party or any policy, and
branded as absurd the issue of
classes against the masses" which
has been raised by the mayor during
the present campaign. Such a posi-
ton was entirely untenable and only
served to antagOniZe a people who
should work together for the upbuild-
ing the city. AS far as Mr.. Bliss
was Concerned, he had never been as
sociated, to any extent, with either
capital or labor. but when he did take
hand it was with capital and against
labor.

been affiliated with either the So
called classes or the masses. but
shortly after election there was a
change, and Mr.. Bliss came into the
business world in connection with sew
eral different industrial projects,
every one of which was more or less
c0lIateraIIy connected with the affairs
of the city Mr. Bliss had violated
no law, but such action was against
that public policy which dictated the
laws upon the statute books. 1t was
was morally wrong. and was d viola
tiOn of the confidence imposed in him
as the city'S executive.
Mr.. Bliss. said the speaker, was a
comparatively small property holder
when he was elected to office, but I'M

property which he acquired would be

also referred to certain other prop

Bliss, and which the city is nOW rent
