lnSincere Claims

Mayor Nesbit in his campaign for
reelection is bending every effort to
make the temperance people believe
that he is a temperance man. Mr..
Nesbit has been Mayor off, Hillsboro
for over three years and. he claims
that his record proves he is a. temper
ance man. How Mr.. Nesbit has the
nerve to make such claim is beyond
us.
The night policemen are d. L
Moore and Mike Mcmahon. They
were appointed by Mr.. Nesbit and
have served in this capacity ever
since he was electedl mayor. We
don't believe that even Mayor Nesbit
ouliclLin t1tt G1sg Ire temperance
men. A mayor who was honestly
dry" certainly would not lappoint
policemen who are wet" There is
no necessity for presenting Ito: the
people of Hillsboro any argument to
prove that Moore and Mcmahon are
wet" The people of Hillsboro know
these men and to present any argu-
ment to prove that ,.theyl are "wet"
would be as useless as demonstrating
an axiom.
The "bootleggers" andI criminal
classes of the town aresupporting Mes
bit to a man. They know that lwith
Dude" and "Mickie" on the police
force they could not have things to
suit them better and they are ,satis-
fed.
Mr.. Wilkin the Republican candi-
date for Mayor is not making any
wonderful claims as to WHAT he will
do If he is elected. He simply prom
ises that he will enforce the laws and
give the town clean business admin
istration. What Mr.. wilkins pri-
vate views may be on, local option is
not an issue in this campaign. 1t is
well known that he is temperance
man from principle and one may guess
that his instincts will lead him to-
ward law and order.
Hillsboro is dry" by law and,there
is no question but that it will, remain
so for years. The issue before the
people is will Mr.. wilkins, if elected
enforce the laws and give the people
a good honest administration.
Mr.. Nesbit has been mayor for three
years and has been found wanting.
BY his appointments he has proved
that he does not want the laws en-.
forced. A bankrupt treasury, no.im-
provements TO show for the expendi-
ture of the money, the streets inl, bad
all show that 1.-The spublic
money has not been wisely expended.
If Mr.. wilkins is elected mayor, we
believe that marked improvement
In the administration of the affairs of
the town will soon be evident, that
the laws will be enforced without fear
rfayor and that Hillsboro will have
clean business administration.
A vote for Wilkins is a vote for a
better Hillsboro.
The News-Herald. [volume] (Hillsboro, Highland Co., Ohio) 1886-1973, 1911-11-02

No one thing is operating more
against the prosperity and good name
of Hillsboro than the awful condition
of the streets and alleys. Nothing of
any consequence has been attended to
by the democratic administration
except the streets around i,the .public
square, which improvement was, taken
up by the business men. This clearly
shows that the public money has not
been judiciously expended.
