Der of votes will go before the people

The two candidates having. the high
est number OF votes at the primary

people at this election and the one
polling the highest number of votes
becomes mayor and head OF the COM
mission.

ment the city administration is to

ished the Office of city controller,
the water works department, public
works department as at present

Inmates and score of minor boards.

water boards duties will come into
the city treasurers hands.
There is still a mass of detail to
settle, but ii will not take tangible
form until the commissioners and
the mayor are elected This will
be done in December and the new
regime will become active January l..

in any manner indorse the principles
of protection. But here ali there

When a Democrat asks for PRO-
