VOTE FOR MURDOCH and FUSI0

d. Murdoch's
Declaration of Principles

will to the best of my ability safeguard the interest
of the people in so far as l am able with the assistance of
The council and the heads of departments. There will be
equal rights extended to all and special privileges to
none.
I will endeavor to bring about competition in all
classes OF public contracts, and beg to assure all bidders
that they will receive fair and courteous treatment at nv
hands.
flavor public improvements of all kinds that will add
to the comfort and improvement of this community.
Every family in this city is justly entitled to a liberal
supply of pure water. Cement sidewalks should and
must be extended wherever the people desire them and
are willing to furnish the money to pay the cost of con-
structing the same.
Sewers should and must be extended in all directions
and connections to same enforced, in order that the public
health may not suffer, and the ever recurring periods
when contagious diseases prevail in our fair city may be
eliminated as far as possible.
I favor street paving wherever the abutters on the
streets to be paved shall petition the city council to have
the improvements made, in so far as the city is able to
pay for its share of the improvements made.
/ favor and will constantly endeavor to limit con-
tracts, in size and extent, in order that the man or men
with limited capital may have the opportunity to get
their share of all public work and on all large jobs to so
divide the work that parties equipped with tools and ma
chinery to preform part of the work may come in com.
petition with those who are prepared to do all the labor
and furnish all the material to complete the same.
I cordially recommen the proposition now under
construction by the school board of this city, to build and
equip a magnificent High school building that will be
in harmony with the many grand school buildings we now
possess, and be a source of delight and admiration to all
friends of education at home as well as the admiration of
all our visitors from abroad, and will gladly vote for
bonds to build the same.
/ condemn the methods heretofore in vogue of the
party in power taking the initiative in inaugurating i'm
provements without the knowledge and consent of prop
erty owners along the line of the proposed improvement
and carried out with the purpose in view of furnishing
favored contractors with large jobs at exhorbitant prices,
to the great injury of the taxpayers of Salt Lake.
will extend the same courtesies to the man in over
als as I will to those of our citizens who may be better
equipped with the necessaries and the luxuries of every
day life, remembering always that !, too, have been a
workingman, and proud to acknowledge it.
firmly believe that public Office is a public trust,
and the acts OF public men are fit subjects for public crit
cism. Public officers are the servants of the people, and
as such are responsible only to the people.

Which Is the Harvest MOonY :

With the appearance OF the delicate
lines OF new moon in the western
skies, last night brought up the in
teresting question, is this moon the
harvest moon?
The month Of August always has
been and presumably always will be
endowed with a harvest moon"
However, we bump arong the annals
(not the sands) of time this year, and
behold, 1t is to be noted that this
August deals US off two moons Of
the full chaTacted one on the first
and the thirtieth days of the month
It is for some astronomical authority
to tell which is the harvest fellow, the

BLUE EYES LEAD
IN CASS COUNTY
RECORDS SHOW THAT So PER
CENT OF PEOPLE OF cAss
COUNTY POSSESS SKY COLOR
ED OPTICS - INTERESTING
FACTS CONCERNING PEPPERS.

Blue eyes are all to the good in Far
go and Cass county. If you possess a
pair of the dreamy, sky -colored optics
you are certainly popular.
The official records show that SO
per cent of the residents of Cass coun-
ty have blue eyes, with green a fair
second and brown close up in the rear.
While a census taker has not gone
among the people for the sole purpose
of examining optics, the facts are
brought out at the Office of Auditor A.
G. Lewis where hunting permits are
issued. Among other things, an ap-
plication for hunting license must
show the color of hair and eyes. On
account of the fact that hunters come
from all classes it is considered fair
to use this figure as a criterion on
which the percentage is based.
