CUT OUT PARTY IN
LOCAL AFFAIRS,
URGES MAYOR
SAYS MUNICIPAL OFFICERS
SHOULD BE JUDGED BY SER.
VICE RENDERED, NOT BY Po.
LlTIcAL LABEL.

Mayor Thompson made a little hot
weather campaign argument 10 the
members OF the Electrical Workers
union who held q ball In Prismatic
hall. Monday evening. He chose mu-
nicipal non-partisanship as his topic.
He said in part:
1T does not make much difference
what party label man wears IL he
wastes your money. Your money Is
seaa--AHtil--iIt- ought to make any
difference what label man wears IL
he gives you an efficient. honest and
progressive administration OF your
city's affairs.
The citys business ought 10 be
based on the same idea as the pri-
vate conduct OF business affairs. and
until citizens get big enough. brave
enough and intelligent enough 10 liz.
more party labels and party prejudices
and stand for efficient, honest public
service. good municipal government
will be but an idle dream
II think most men make a mistake
in holding aloof from public affairs.
or in satisfying themseles with vot-
ing once every two years for city Of
ficers, then leaving the city govern
ment 10 run along as its officials see
At TO conduct II.
mo city government can be effec-
tive unless II is backed by the best
conscience and most mature judg-
ment OF its citizens. When public Of
ficials do wrong the best conscience
and most mature Judgment ought 10
condemn their action. no matter 10
what party they may belong; and.
when public officials do right and &C
complish results for the betterment
OF the community. the best con-
science and mature judgment OF the
community ought 10 commend their
action, no matter 10 what party they
may belong II ought never 10 be a
question OF politics or OF prejudice;
but purely question OF results. a
question OF efficient service and a
question OF giving dollars worth OF
return 10 the taxpayer for every dol
lars worth of taxes paid. This is the
rule that exists In every private
business. When you hire a man as a
clerk, or manager or superintendent
you pay him in accordance with the
results he brings TO you, and when
he ceases 10 be an effective producer
of results, you discharge him"

BARTENDER OFFERS UNIQUE
DEFENSE IN COURT. BUT JURY
PROMPTLY coNvlcTs HIM.

In spite OF his very ingenious de-
Tense. Fred Pegg was promptly found
guilty by a jury in Judge Phelsn's
court, Tuesday. OF stealing s4l from
hts benefactor. Estimator Eddie Bar
nett, in whose saloon on Randolph
ct. Pegg was once employed. The
Jury was out only five minutes. Pegg
was remanded for sentence.
The story OF Pegs rise and fall
was interesting as told In the testi-
mony He started In as bottle

hard straits financially. The salary
wasn't large, but Estimator Barnett
was very kind 10 him and took him

Presently Pegg was promoted TO por-
ter at the munifcent wage Of 81 per
week. and was In a fair way TO be-
come q bartender with still another

the company OF woman in another
section OF the town. He was Very
1lush with money, and could not re-
call where he had procured 1t. AS

the presumption was that II came
from that source.
Then Pegg fed to his home In Can

dives and Barnett and induced TO re-
turn to Detroit on promise OF being
given his old job back II he would
brace UP and square matters with
