City Controller Announces
Candidacy For Nomination
On Progressive Ticket For
Mayor of Richmond.
SAYS CITY SHOULD
PAY LIGHTING BILL
States Position on Other Is
sues-Baltz Bescher Will
Ask Reelection to Office
of City Clerk.

E. G. McMahan, city controller, for
mally announced his condidacy for
nomination for the office of mayor of
Richmond at the coming primary cleo
ton. He will ask the nomination on
the Progressive ticket. In letter to
the Palladium he outlined his plat
form in part, setting forth the issues
which are of the highest interest to
the people of the city at the present.
His letter reads as follows:
Gives Position.
To The Richmond Palladium:
AS l expect to be a candidate for
the nomination for Mayor on the Pro-
gressive ticket think it advisable to
state some of the things | am in favor
of in the administration of city affairs,
viz:
The city paying for street lighting
and thereby enabling the light plant
to reduce the charges for current to
private consumers.
Using economy in all departments
as we'll as publicity III all matters per-
tanning to the city's welfare.
Causing all public utilities to live up
to the agreements as specified in their
franchises.
Distributing the Improvements in
our parks more uniformly.
Doing away with the unsightly bill
boards in conspicuous places.
Making sanitary conditions the best
possible for public health.
Making appointments to office with
respect to their fitness for the position
to which appointed.
Very respectfully,
E. G. M'MAHAN.
City Should Pay.
Mr.. McMahan believes that the rate
for electricity furnished by the Mu-
nicipal light plant should be lower.
In order that the light plant may do
this he believes that the city should
pay for the street lighting for which
the plant, at present. receives nothing.
He stated that it is not right that the
city should receive free lighting for
its streets, public buildings-and parks
as the patrons using the municipal
plant electricity pay for the lighting
of the streets while if the city paid
the light plant fair rate for the
electricity which is used in lighting
streets and public buildings, the en-
tire tax paying population of Rich
mond would be paying part of this
expense.
At present, the plant is furnishing
free to the city about $1,000 worth of
electricity per month. This expense
is really borne by the patrons of the
city plant. With the city paying
monthly, this amount to the light
plant, much lower rate could bit
established to the consumers, Mr..
McMahan.
Howard Brooks Candidate.
City Clerk Baltz Bescher has an
nounced that he will make the race
for reelection on the Progressive
ticket Clerk Bescher approves the
platform outlined by E. G. McMahan
Howard Brooks, secretary of the
Wayne county Progressive central
committee will be a candidate for
county auditor on the Progressive
ticket it is said. Mr.. Brooks is very
we'll known.

MAINTAINS THAT He IS
Innocent OF CHARGE
oR1T1c1sEs OFFICIALS FOR THEIR
LAxNEss-G1vEs IN DE-
TAIL HIS MOVEMENTS.

Matteawan. N. Y. Aug. 19.-At-
tacking the Matteawan asylum author
tiles for their laxness of administra-
ton and maintaining that he is inno-
cent of completely with Harry Thaw
In his plot to escape. Howard H. Bar
mum. the asylum attendant. made a
statement last night giving in detail
his movements when Thaw made his
dash for liberty. Barnum is blamed
Thaw to escape.
Barnum's statement. which was
made through his attorney after ex-
planning that as keeper of the rear
gate it was his duty to admit any per-
son who had business at the hospital,
continues:
Was Permitted Liberties.
For some time Harry Thaw has
been assigned by the superintendent
as an assistant in the store room and
has been the custom for the keeper
in charge to permit him at certain
times in the day to exercise in the
outer yard. This yard is surrounded
by high fence in which there is one
gate. They have been in the habit
Of allowing Thaw the liberty of this
yard several days every week and his
presence there is a usual occurrence. -
ner in which Thaw dashed through
the gate to the autom obile waiting
outside when the keeper admitted the
milk man and the statement con-
tinues:
"I was appointed an attendant sew
enteen years ago. During most of the
time have been in charge or the rear
gate. Thaw has been given access to
the yard and permitted at will to go
to any part Of it. l had nothing to do
with regulating his movements and
the gate when opened and closed It,
time and again. He was given access
to the yard by the storekeeper, with
the knowledge Of DR.. Kieb, the super
intendent.
None Of the attendants is permit
ted to carry any firearms or weapons
and the gate is so wide that it is i'm
possible for any man guarding it to
prevent patient darting out If he felt
so disposed. From the time that Thaw
came up behind and leaped from the
car only brief interval lapsed and
did all that any one could possibly
have done under the conditions. I
tried to pursue him, called after him
and when 1 saw this was Of no use
gave an alarm at once. Thaw was
permitted to use the yard and to go
out to the gate and have never been
warned or informed by anybody not
to permit him to do so. He had been
doing this for some time with the
knowledge of practically every one in
the institution. I had no hint or in
timation of Thaws intention to es-
cape.
Action Unfair. Says Barnum.
Kieb to implicate me in the affair
without the slightest ground. is unfair
and 1t seems that they are trying their
best to shift the blame from those re-
sponsible for the system which made
it easy for the escape and rendered it
practically impossible for me or any
one else in my position to prevent it,"
