Lambs Statement.

To the Citizens of Gardiner:
l desire to make this one final state
ment. Although / neither worked for
or aginst Commission Government, il
has been repeatedly declared that l
wanted the office of Mayor only to
prove Commission Government a fail
ure. This is so absurd on its face
that it ought to carry no weight: but
so persistently have my opponents cir
culated the statemente-that | find 1t
has done SO. Nothing could be furth-
er from the truth, as | have never
said or done anything that would war
rant this unfair assertion. It was
circulated purely as a political trick
to injure me with the voters.
When Commission Government was
adopted by so decisive a majority |
determined, as every good citizen
should, to give it my hearty support
If | had not, does il look reasonable
that ] should have announced myself
as candidate for Mayor | had
Sservcd only part of term, and no
matter what general assertions are
made 10 the contrary, the present
City Government has made as good
a showing as could be made under our
present system. ! felt that II my TEL
low citizens would honor me win an
other election that / would like TO
serve another term under the new
form of administration, and make a
record of which the City and ] could
be proud. Up to- and including the
day of the preliminary election, i
made no charges against my opponent,
had no desire TO do so, and made no
effort 10 get out my supporters /
was willing to leave it to the voters
in accordance with the principles of
Commission Government. My oppon-
emf. however, and his friends eircu-
lated the now disproved and slurring
circular the day before election, too
late to admit of denial ON the day
Of the election they showed they had
perfected political organization nev-
er surpassed in this city. They mad
teams in every ward, checked off their
voters at the polls, and resorted to
all the old political lodges to get the
biggest vote possible. My friends and
then realized that my opponent and
his supporters did not mean what they
had professed, and that if I won /
should have to work. Since then /
have tried In every honorable way to
influence men 10 vote for me,
/ say in. all sincerity that | had re-
solved, il elected, to make success
of my administration and of Commits
sion Government. I say that such IS
my determination and intention now.
II that determination could be made
stronger, it has been by these unfair,
unwarranted and untrue statements
that l was an enemy to Commission
Government. If ever man had an
incentive to make good and prove his
enemies are false prophets ] have.
II elected, l now have a double motive
to prove our new form of municipal
administration a success, my honest
desire to justify the faith of my fellow
citizens who elected me and Wy flfm
determination to prove that my enc
mics are wrong. If elected. I pledge
myself TO give the best there is in
me to make a success of my admins
tration and a success of Commission
Government. and that is the only
pledge I have made.
