PLAINFIELD, Jan. 4.-Mayor George
w. ". Moy, who was elected on an in
dependent ticket. backed by the Demo-
Gratis, will of1ciate as city counsel to
save the city paying a salary of $1,000.
Mr.. Moy was formerly a druggist in
this city, but left that profession to
study law, and for the past ten years
has been practising in this city. He
does not thin that the burdens of
being mayor are so great that he can
not fill both offices.
There was much surprise when Mayor
Moy made no appointment New Years
Day. 1t was expected that he would
name q successor to Craig A. Marsh,
who died a month ago, and who was
city counsel for twenty years. Mayor
Moy made no appointments. It Is prob
able that he will not do SO for a week
or more.
IT intend" said Mayor Moy. ito go
over the list of offices, and II there are
any offices that are sinecures they will
be abolished. 1t Is my opinion that
money is being spent for salaries which
the city could save"
do you contemplate making many
appointments? 2" Mayor Moy was asked.
II shall give the matter thorough
consideration first" he said. IT want
to give the people OF Plainfield a bust
ness-like administration. and conduct
the affairs Of the city the same as I
would my w private business"
do you think there are many such
offices in this city" he was asked.
IT have not had time to go over the
list thoroughly yet" he said, but I
will tell you this-no check will pass
me unless I know exactly what it is for
and why"
