GODDARDS ANSWER TO MURPHY'S ATTACK

in the press and By means Of cir.
cnlars. His statements are full OF
misrepresentation. half truths aud
lies out OF whole cloth.
Murphy said that Goddard must
be defeated at any coat. Why7
Murphy says that Goddard missed
10 out of fifty-two meetings In 1908
Goddard missed only two ont Of his
first i0s meetings running through
1905 and 1903, and out OF i1e meet
inEs since he became a councilman

Of occasions absented himself from
the council in attending to personal

who has keTrfn touch with council
meetings knows that he has missed

Goddard.

been excused from number OF
council meetings before adjourn.

Of the council
Murphy says that Goddard r. a

This ordinance was defeated, but
later the ordinance upon which the
streets In question were vacated
was introduced by Councilman J. N.
Denncy.
AS to Goddard's vote on the cleo.
triflcation OF the Madison street
railway, the voters affected un.
doubleday remembered this when at
the primaries they gave Goddard a
large majority over Murphy In every
precinct along that line.
Goddard has nothing to apologize
for In his three years course in the
council. But II is strange that his
enemies cannot criticlse him with
out resorting To such a mass of
yenomous falschoods as are con-
tained In Murphy's attacks.

Two men we're elected to the
Council In 1908.
One was William II. Murphy, who
had been Councilman from the
Ninth Ward for eight years.
The other was A. j Goddard. who
ever since he was elected has fought
single.handed the system OF regrade
contracts which makes the dirt
pay both ways: who stood up in
the Council and defied those who
were wasting the taxpayers money /,
who made the statement which has
been repeated In every home In the
city, that Public improvements are
costing too much and certain Coun-
cilmen are getting rich"
Murphy has been fatbering many
public improvements. Necessarily
the two men came In conflict.
A year ago Murphy became Pres
ident Of the Council. He used his
position TO punish Goddard, the in.
surgent; the man who had stood 10
for the people. He refused 10 an.

where he could accomplish any.
