DEMOCRATS
Can Point City Taxpayers
to Successful Admins
tration of City Affairs.
COUNCIL IS HOSTILE

II was announced yesterday that
Server Joseph Munter, Jr., will be q
candidate for denomination at the
Democratic primaries. Mr.. Munter,
who has vast business interests
throughout the city. announced some
time ago that he would hardly allow
his name to be entered on the books
for second term. His friends irres-
pective OF party affiliations have
brought such pressure TO bear that he
has at last consented to enter the con-
test. This will no doubt be welcome
news to the taxpayers of the city.
Because OF tho vast amount OF unfinish-
ed street. improvements and other pub
lie work II will no doubt be to the In.
terest OF every tar payer to have Mr..
Munter serve for another two years.
This is especially true in the case of
the new pump at the water works sta
tion which has not yet been accepted
by the city and about which so much
controversy has taken place. Mr..
Munter Is about the only gentleman
on the board that is thoroughly con.
versant with the minute details OF
every transaction pertaining to the err
ection and installing of the big ma.
chine and II is important on this ac-
count that he be retained as q member
OF the board.
The Democratic party need not be
ashamed of the gentlemen who are
now fllins the different positions In
the local city government. Another
thing to be remembered Is the fact
that Mayor Turnbull has been greatly
hampered In his work by an unfriend-
ly council who have done almost ey-
erythins to retard his plans for the
publication of the city. and have even
gone so far as to refuse to confirm HIS
appointments for such small offices as
members Of the board OF health. For
a long time there has been a demand
on the part Of the people in general
for a renovating In that department.
The mayor has been ready to accede
to the wishes Of the people and In sci. !,
Getting the members of the board tried
to pick nothing but representative men
who would do their duties and be
wholly fair and impartial. The men,
bers of the council turned part of his
appointees down and now the mayors
hands are tied until a new council is
elected when he hopes that he will be
able to inaugurate the needed reforms
that are asked for by the citizens.
