I have before me the news report or
the harmonious convention held at the
city building Friday Eve. Sept. 5th, at
which Mayor Zimmerman, In the alb
sence of any other contestant for the
honor at least on the Republican TICK
ct, was renOminated to succeed him.
self, and | am constrained to follow
the remarks made by him and show
how utterly at variance they are with
actual facts.
The Mayors Statement.
He says: "Since l have been mayor
| have paid off a debt of S20,OOO.OO
from a previous administration and II
only built one street and that was
West Fifth street | have built more
streets and kept them in better condi-
ton than that administration which
built only one and yet left big debt.
Il am not going to leave the city in
a hole when | step out of office and
am not going to find it in hole when
| take up the office again"
Unfortunately for the mayor, | am
in possession Of evidence in the form
of controllers reports, that gives his
statement a decidedly discolored op-
tic.
The city is now in a hole, and 1t
! will require a man possessed or a
keener business acumen than the
mayor has ever shown to get 1t out
of the hole.
To leave the city in hole, If only
after years Of administering affairs
seems to be the only capacity the may
or ever had.
A Proof of Statement.
In proof of this statement, 1t Is nee
essary to go back to Dec. 31st, 1905
when he (Zimmerman) stepped out OF
office to be succeeded by Schillinger
What were the conditions then ex
isting
The controllers report for 1906
shows a surplus January 1st e. thai
wear of s7.54174 This amount was
generally accepted as a credit, when
as a matter of fact, Zimmerman had
been compelled to borrow 100000 from
a local bank, bearing 5 per cent inter
est and payable the last day OF May
of that year. in order to leave sur
plus of S7,541.74.
If the $20,000.00 borrowed had beer
the only debt outstanding against the
surplus of $7,541.74, the city ther
would have been $12,458,26 worse of
than nothing.

Following the filing of the Official re-
port of State Food and Drug lnspec-
tor F. W. Tucker. with the city clerk
today describing Will Hartman as a
"dairyman who does not know his bus
mess" Charles E. Flock. dairy inspec-
fense of Hartman, taking exceptions
to fuckers report in the form OF an
affidavit, presented to Mayor thinner
man.
Hartman is the dairyman City
Health OFFICER Davis blames for the
spread of the typhoid epidemic in this
city because of his practice of not
sterilizing milk bottles.
This forenoon J. A. Cravens. of the
state department of food and drugs. in
formed a Palladium representative ov-
er the long distance telephone that an
analysis of the samples of water ta-
ken from the Hartman dairy showed
the water to be in very bad condi-
ton. This water was infected with
colon bacilli, sewage infection. re-
ported that fact to your dairy inspec-
tor, Mr.. Flock, this morning" Cravens
said.
Flock Much Concerned.
Inspector Flock for several days has
| been greatly concerned over the criti-
cism of the water supply at the Hart
! man dairy and has taken much pains
| to explain that the spring Hartman
obtained his water supply from was
covered and consequently protected
! from dirt. He has not given any con-
| sideration to the fact that stable sew
age drains past the place where the
pump line, leading to the house, taps
the undersurface pipe leading to the
spring.
In the affidavit Flock filed with the
mayor today, he charges that Hart
man has been unjustly criticised by
the Palladium, also the state inspec'
tor" No mention is made al the affi'
davit of Hartman's policy of not steri
lizing his milk bottles, the blame for
which negligence Flock is now shar.
ing with Hartman, 1t being an import
ant duty of the local inspector to pro
tect the public from such a danger
Gus practice.
A copy of the letter forwarded
Hartman by H. E. Barnard, state food
and drug commissioner. was placed or
file at the city clerks office today
This letter shows that Inspector Tuck
er reported on the conditions at the
Hartman dairy as follows:
stable is dirty. Milkroom is un
screened. improperly built. located IL
house. Utensils are not properly wash
ed. Water supply is questionable
Cows are not properly cleaned before
milking. Dairyman does not know hi,
business. Other insanitary conditions

Orders Given Hartman.
Commissioner Barnard also gave tn,
following orders to Hartman: "Yol
; are hereby notified that you must dis
continue the sale of your milk or but
ter at once until the local health off
GERS are satisfied as to the source o
infection of typhoid fever on you
