URGE DAVY FOR MAYOR
Committee States that He Has Made
Good and Asks Voters to DO Square
Thing by Returning Him.

To The Forum; The present cam
paign for mayor of Meorhead pre-
sents some peculiar features. Two
years ago the business men Of the city
forced Mr.. Davy to run for mayor. He
did not want the office, but finally con-
scented to run. The business men
made his campaign for him and he was
elected. He has made good as mayor.
All concede that. The administration
has been clean and businesslike. Every
argument used for Mr.. Davy two years
ago can be used now, with the addi-
ton that he has made good. Natural
ly he seeks an Endorsement of his adj
ministration and 1t is up to the voters
of Moorhead to do the fair thing, and
they will do it by voting for Mr..
Davy.
His opponents base their campaign
upon the principle of progressiveness,
and on that plea their campaign should
stand or fall. They say they want a
more progressive administration" Let
us see what Moorhead has done during
1910 under Mayor Davy. The report
of Prof. r. P. Hess of the Minnesota
tax commission shows that Moorhead
81, 1910 for permanent improvements
$15.03 for each man, woman and child
in the city, this amount being by far
the highest per capita of any city in
the state, and nearly six times the
average of the cities of the state. Has
the argument for more progressive
administration" used by Mr.. Davy's
opponents a leg to stand on in the light
of the above figures? Any fair minded
man will recognize that it has not
the argument falls fiat, and is shown
up as a nice catchy phrase to fool the
unwary.
According to the booklet just issued
by the commercial club, Moorhead has
spent $329,000 in the past five years for
public improvements. What has Mr..
Davy personally spent in the way of
improvements? Here are the figures:
1909, for paving and side
walks OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES. So, 59S.46
1910, for paving, sewer and
sidewalks .................. 1,379.43
Total for 1909 and 1910 .$4,977.S9
In addition to this Mr.. Davy paid
taxes during 1909 and 1910 amounting
to $4,466.58; 8 per cent of this being
on property within the city limits.
Total for permanent improvements
and taxes in two years being $9,444.47.
His large interests in Moorhead is
an absolute guarantee that the well
fare and good Of the city will be his
first consideration in all his official
acts.
During his administration the past
two wears Mr. nayv has given every
body a square deal. He has played
no favorites, making the city banks
pay interest on city deposits, thing
never before done in Moorhead. A
vote for Mr.. Davy is an assurance TO
the voter Of another two years of
clean, businesslike administration a
square deal to everyone and the adj
vancement of all things that are for
the best interests of the people of the.
city of Moorhead. Committee.

FREE CONSULTATION TO ALL

The Associated Doctors are helping
people who have gone astray from the
way of health, it matters not what the
trouble is.
They have made a special study of
chronic troubles. There are several
lines work to emphasize for they do so
much of this work as troubles of eye,
ear, nose and throat like catarrh, en-
larged tonsels adnoids deafness, also
stomach and intestinal troubles and
liver, kidney and bladder complaints
causing rheumatism skin diseases etc.
Then too lung end heart cases asthma
consumption, weakness, dizziness, SWELL
ing of feet, shortness of breath, coughs
etc. They have hundreds of cases PEG.
pie call private troubles.
Treating fat folks to reduce weight
they could give a list of many who were
relieved of 20 to 100 10 of excess baggage.
Then very special to many suffers
they treat piles, goltre, chronic appen-
dicitis, gall stones etc. without the knife.
Mental and nervous diseases and bed
wettiag should not be forgotten.
In spite of many spectacle peddlers
they are fitting good many eyec for
glasses.
They use their own drugs, chemicals
and compounds and everything of known
value. If you need help for any trouble
come and see them. At least have
talk with the doctor regarding your
trouble for which there will be NO
CHARGE.
Mrs. T. A. Oothout, Mankato, Mimi,
says: II am entirely relieved of all pains
and signs of my gall stones and sour
stomach and constipation and now want
to see you to have my piles cured by
your method, am very thankful to you
as now can enjoy life.
Mr.. James Ripp, Fergus Falls, says:
"You have done more than I expected,
my dizziness, shortness of breath, weak
ness, bloating have left me, and pitch
ed in the field which I would never have
believed could again do
Mrs. A. E. Parks, Evansville, Mimi,
says: II had almost lost hope of verr re-
ceiving help for my rheumatism having
spent much time and money for doctors,
mud baths and electricity etc. but your
treatment has entirely cured me and
certainly will recommend you to every
one for your good work..
Account of lack of space would pub
lish many more. Remember date and
be sure and consult the doctor about
your troubles.
