not agree to have a pre-convention
arrangement I whereby the Offices
should be parcelled out, the candi.
dates named, the appointments
slated aud then the citizens called
in to ratify the slate. We are not
going to roast Mr.. Leyoy. He was
mayor of Webster for two years and
his record was such that when he
came up for reelection the voters
by a very large majority turned him
down unceremoniously. He has not
changed any and if elected his
administration would be the same as
the former one. Webster needs a
progressive and liberal man for
mayor if she is going to keep in the
list Of the best towns in the state.
We do not believe that Mr.. Levoy
fills that bill. We think he is too
narrow. We think he is too con
tracted. While we believe in econ
omy we cannot c%ountenance stingi.
ness. The moral faze of Mr..
Levoy's former administration was
not such as it would cause any of
the law and order league to rush to
his support. The lines are drawn.
Do you want a man who was nomi-
mated by about two hundred of your
own citizens in convention assem-
bled or do you want a man who was
nominated by a handful of politi-
clans who are seeking Office or trying
to indicate a personal spite. The
Reporter II Farmer believes that the
best interests Of Webster and her
people will be subserved by the
election of DIR. Harris. He is an
energetic and progressive citizen.
He has lived here for twenty seven
years and no person can assail his
character upon any score. We ask
for your votes for DIR. Harris believ-
ing he will make the best mayor
that Webster ever had.

Have you heard of anyone nom.
mated on the Republican ticket
refusing TO run and Withdrawing
from the ticket? No, we guess not.
They were selected by a represen
tative convention of a large majority
of the republicans of the city duly
called by public notice and were all
present when their names were pre-
sented, not by a little gathering Of a
few OF the faithful Citizens" on the
quiet in AnderJon's office, without
notice of any kind having been made
public Just the word given out to
the little ring. But they now have
it all fixed up and the citizens don't
have to 60 without representatives,
provided, the rest of the ticket don't
withdraw before election day.

When you see it in the Webster
World you better get the records
and look in to the matter. For
instance, read the World spasm on
the contract for city coal for 1907.
Mr.. Wearne made a proposition the
council could not see how they could
get a better one, 50 adopted the fol-
lowing motion which appeared in
the council proceedings published
last week.
Motion made by Alderman Gruby
and seconded by Alderman Halver-
son that the mayor be instructed to
make contract with E. A. Wearne for
coal at the lowest price obtainable
from any other company for the
year 1907. Roll call: Gruby, yea;
Halverson, yea; Olson, no; Becht,
yea"
II there is a chance for anyone to
be grated in this deal it is Mr..
Wearne, and certainly not the City
of Webster.

Why is it that a man can live in q
community for a quarter of a cen
fury, enjoying the respect and esteem
of his fellow citizens. and the
moment he accepts a nomination for
ia city Office, which most citizens
shun, he becomes a sort of pariah to
to be barked at by political dogs.
The way in which DIR. Harris was
referred to in the boxers meeting,
and since by that set, is a disgrace
to American citizenship. Many OF
these men have resided here from
one to i've years; know nothing OF
the trials and toll OF the pioneer
days; took no hand in the settle
ment and up-building OF our city;
yet they presume to criticise the life
and character of one immeasurably
their superior; n who has borne
the burden and toll in the heat of
the day; n who has assisted at the
bringing into the world Of a full
share OF the younger generation; who
has alleviated the pain of many a
sick bed; who has fulfilled the duty
OF citizenship to the utmost and who
is entitled above all others to reward
at the hands of the people. Search
the ~ years Of DR.. Harris residence
in Webster and if you can then place
finger on n ignoble act, then
vote against him. If not, give him
your support.

TAFT AND CUMMINS.
Presidential Ticket Favored in Admin
istration Circles.

Washington, April 10.-Taft and
Cummins is the Republican national
ticket being "touted" here by the ad-
ministration for next years campaign.
The agricultural West is looked to,
according to friends of President
Roosevelt, to supply the nominee for
vice president and Governor Cum
Minis commanding position in Iowa,
one of the leading granger states,
which has also in its ranks leaders
such men as Shaw, Dolliver and Hep
burn, which makes him a potential
possibility.
Taft and Cummins are both tariff
revisionists and 1t would appear from
the gossip of administration politicians
the revision of the tariff schedule will
be made a leading issue In the Repub-
lican platform IL the Roosevelt ele-
ment of the party can control the next
convention.

Did you read the call for the
citizens convention on bills or in the
Webster World or any where? II
you did you must have had inside
information. The citizens conven
ton vas conceived in inquiry, born
in the small hours Of the night in
Anderson's Office. We are not sur
prised that the greater portion Of
the nominees refuse to run on the
ticket. While the World says il is
the Crawford republicans, this a
SANDER on Crawford. He should
pray for protection from his-a

How Levoy did go after the gamb
lers four years ago. Everything
from the slot machine to the church
grab bag was banished. Even the
cigar store dice box used to settle
such momentous questions as
whether the customer paid 10 cents
or nothing for a cigar was relocated
to the past. And people generally
were glad he did SO. But 80! what
a difference in the morning" Was
it the same summer or the wear
following that he permitted the
worst gang of crooks and skin
game gamblers ever congregated
under n circus tent to ply their
nefarious surething swindles freely
and without interruption and
hundreds of dollars were lost by
citizens who ought to have known
better.

II is alleged that there was a eau.
u held in the city of Webster last
Thursday night at which L. G.
Levoy was nominated for mayor.
We did not hear of the call nor have
we been able to find any person who

Distant fields look green. Some
of u boxer friends say that Mr.
Levoy is the Moses to lead us out o
the wilderness. This may be so
but we would ask these gentlemen
to 60 and examine the city records
and point out to us wherein Mr.,
Levoy is especially qualified for the
duties of mayor. We ask of these
gentlemen that they go up and
examine the city records and indi.
cate whereby their claim is made
good. Whe will take for instance
that under the Levoy administra-
ton there was $500 of debt con.
tracted for air compressor, new
dynamos, engine, settling tank
enlargement of the power plant, ETC.,
the purchase of which no one pre-
sumes to criticise. But we want the
citizens Of Webster to remember
that these debts were contracted for
under the Leyoy administration and
paid for under the Woodwork
administration. We want you to
remember this and when anyone
comes to you and tells you that Mr..
Levoy is the only citizen to whom
can be entrusted the affairs of the
city with any assurance, refer to
these figures. We are particularly
interested inasmuch as the year end
ing May LIST, 1905, there was
expended by the City of Webster
about $50 for public printing and
for the year ending May 1st, 1906,
there was spent $272.55. This is
the only expenditure which, to any
citizen on reference to the books
of the city, would look extravagent.
But upon examination of the books
it will be clearly shown that 500
OF this amount was contracted by
the Levoy administration with War
rem l.. Mack Of the Webster World
and deliberately held over until
such time as Mr.. Woodwork
assumed the duties of mayor, and
must have of necessity been paid by
Mr.. Woodworth's administration as
it was a just debt against the city.
Upon examination a number of
other bills will be found contracted
for by the Levoy administration
and deliberately held over for the
Woodwork administration to pay.
In addition to this the Levoy
administration had $1,000 of license
money to which we look for labor on
the streets; while the Woodwork
administration had but $1,000.
Statements are easy; facts are plain;
look up the record. Woodworth's
administration is better than Levoy's
to the city's books. The
finances are in better shape. The
debts are paid. There are no out
warrants.

BY the way. Who + the Craw-
ford republicans 1t is a fact that
can be verified by referring to the
election returns and the report of
the last republican county conven-
ton, that the precincts that sent
insurgent delegates to that conven-
ton, in almost every instance, are
the precincts where Crawford, AS
governor, received the smallest vote
as compared with the vote for gov
ernor at previous elections.

GoODWIN'S STATEMENT.

The Reporter and Farmer representa-
tive called on Mr.. j. T. Goodwin who
was nominated by the alleged citizens
convention for assessor. Mr.. Goodwin
told your reporter that he was not con
suited in the matter at all. That he
knew nothing of a call for a citizens
convention. Had not heard of it. He
was not in any political scrap. Was
not a candidate for the office at any
time and would not be. His name was
put on without his knowledge or con-
tent and he would not let ii remain and
should not have qualified had he been
elected. These are Mr.. Goodwin's
remarks just as made.

Mrs. L. 4. Egge was selected as candi-
date for the Board Of Education. The
End ward named M. Wist for council.
For the School Board, Martin Ditman'

Candy winning out, but Geo. Dunton

argued that a sub.rosa campaign was
the thing, but they were outvoted and
an open night decided upon. Il COLI

vacancies on the ticket, which in light
of after events. proved a wise precau.
ton.
1t is but just TO say that but three of
the candidates named were present II
took part in the proceedings and a mum.
Der of those named disavow the whole
thing and will not permit their names
to be used in connection. Whether a
ticket nominated in this fashion, with
out a call or notice of any kind, can
legally be permitted 70 appear on the
ballot as a citizens ticket is doubtful,
but there will be no opposition to its so
appearing from the republicans of the

selected their corps of teachers for the
ensuing rear: w. A, Thompson, Supt
teacher of District in Fl. S.; Chas. Hal.

principal, teacher of Science; Alice

The large number of pupils in the
primary grades has made it necessary to
put the extra grade tercher In the prim.
airy department rather than the gram.
mar. There was but one object kept
in mind in making the above selection,
and hat was to secure the very best
teachers obtainable, and there is no mis-.
take but what an excellent teaching
force has been secured. There is TO
profession in which the force is more
changeable than in that of teaching and
this is to be regretted, but there is no
solution. No board can or should object
to a teacher continuing her educational
work in some higher institution land
the ambitious teachers are always desir-
able); nor should any board object to a
teacher hearkening to the call of cupid.
