involuntary bursts of rapture from the
Norfolk audience, and to deserve them
too; for never did one of her profes-
sion take more pains to please than
she. But, now the scene is changed
misfortunes have pressed heavily on
her. Left alone, the only support of

friendless and nprotected-she no

of the roses from her cheeks. still
she retains the same sweetness of ex-

How to Vote,

There are several important things
this city must obtain within the short
est time possible if we wish to straight
ten up and step from a moulding
country town to a modern progressive
little city where life exists and people
live prosperous and are happy If we
wish to become something, fulfill our
boast of 10000 in 191O' now is the
time to begin the preparation. This
can be done by laying aside all of our
little personal, religious, business and
political differences and vote for the
men who, in your judgment, will ad-
minister the affairs of the city in q
progressive manner.
You may find some on one ticket
and some ON the other. Or all on one
ticket, it all depends on your opinion.
Party politics should not be allowed
to dominate in a municipal election
and by comparing either ticket it will
be noted the Free Press has no ak to
grind. Read the prediction pledges
Of the various candidates, decide who
will be apt to fill the bill as the men
for progressive city, lay aside all
friendship and personal matters and

Finance and Revenue.
| am not very well informed regard
ing the financial condition of the City
at this time, but do know that the
tax levy for all purposes is $50 and
that this unusually high rate is doing
more to retard improvements, in the
way of substantial buildings, and to
keep out investors, than any other
cause, and that any increase in the tax
levy would be fatal to our progress. |
do not believe there has been any ex-
travegance in the administration of
city affairs. Only two policeman have
been employed, each serving twelve
hours; this shows the orderly condition
of our City, and we cannot anticipate
any improvement in these conditions
which would permit any reduction in
the police force. Neither do believe
that any reduction should be made in
the salaries Of city employees as the
cost of living has increased rather than
diminished. l fail to see wherein the
expenditures for current expenses can
be reduced.
If the city, and the schools were de-
prived of any portion Of the present
revenue, | can see no way Of replacing
it except by increase of the tax levy
to seven per cent, and l believe that
this course would gain for us the dis
tinction of the highest tax levy, and
the quietest, if not the most orderly
city in the L. S. 1t is true that a
small amount Of revenue might be
raised by increasing Of license upon all
lines of business but | do not believe
such license advisable, as it would
place additional burdens upon the
business life of our city which already
shares it proportion of the tax levy on
personal property, while many of the
business firms rent their store buildings
and fire insurance is also high. | have

of license Except the saloon license)

IF there ever was time in the en-

what men to support-the fact Of the
matter is we have before US two tick
cts Of most excellent men, not a man
to which the finger Of scandal can just
ly point. Men chosen because of their
high character, honestly and integrity.
To say that one is q saloon" or the

fair. The nominees of either ticket
are men whose reputation cannot just
ly be assailed.
In the hurry and turmoil of nomi-
mating platforms were overlooked and
as the individuals are merely the ma
chjnery with which pledges and plat
forms are carried out the people have
a right to know where these men
stand on questions Of import to the
city. With this idea in view the
Free Press submitted to the candidates
for mayor as well as the candidates
for councilmen from the three wards
the following letter and gladly pub
fishes the reylies we have received.
The Letter.
Since both Of the municipal tickets
in the field are without platform and
various reports are being circulated as
to the standing of the candidates on
various important questions the Free
Press desires to publish this week a
signed interview from the candidates
on the following four questions which
vitality concern this city.
First: Finance and Revenue.
Second: Public Improvements.
Third: Saloons.
Fourth: Water.
The people have a right to know
where the candidates stand. Please
make your reply as brief as possible
and not over six hundred words.

our city. I would favor the thorough
investigation Of sewerage system. l
don't think it advisable to attempt
putting in a complete sewer now, but
would favor the purchasing of a tract
OF land sufficient for septic tanks, and
construct sewer through the thickly
settled business and residence districts
that could be added to from time to
time, and in a few years we could have
perfect sanitary conditions. For this
purpose | would favor bonding the

Saloons.

Some action should be taken for the
betterment of our sanitary conditions

more thickly settled residence portion.
| don't have in mind that the city
should at this time put in complete

sewer pipe being laid by the city, SO
that those wishing to do SO might con-

Finance and Revenue.
l favor an economical administra-
tion Of the city affairs consistent with
the growth and progress of the city.
This revenue must be derived mainly
from taxation and by such other means
as is provided by statutes and ordin-
ances Of the city and in such sums as
will meet current expenses.
Public improvements.
| answer that this question in a
measure involves the answer to the
first, and in addition will say that |
favor all needful and necessary I'M
provements, particularly the question
OF an improved sanitary condition of
city, thereby favoring a sewage system
as soon as it can be brought about
without impairing the credit of the
city.
Saloons.
| am in favor Of strict enforcement
of the law as it now exists, relation to
sale OF liquors in our city and that the
proprietors of all saloons be required
to conduct orderly houses.
Water.
| am in favor Of the city owning its
own water works at the earliest mo-
ment consistent with the ability of the
city to pay for the same.
