TELLS MOOSERS
OF GOOD GOVT
City Chamberlain of New York
Speaks Before Local
Progressives.

Henry Bruere, city chamberlain of
New York, addressed members of the
Progressive City Committee at head
quarters, Branford place and Halsey
street, last night. He spoke on Good
Government in the Municipality"
The speaker said his inclinations were
toward commission government for
the reason that it aroused keen inter
est. When the public begins to at
tend to its own business then the gov
eminent is a success, he said.
You don't have to adopt the COM
mission plan" the speaker fold his
hearers, ito obtain good government.
New York, ! hope. is demonstrating
that
1--WE have across the river the
greatest municipal enterprise in the
world. During the past eight years
/ have seen a remarkable change
come over the spirit and the ac-
complishment of that enterprise.
Eight years ago public business was
the secondary consideration in the
conduct of city government. and
politics of the old personal spokesman
kind the major consideration. Men
did not dare be free and courageous
workers for the common good in most
of the departments, because they
would give offense to skulking, dodg-
ing, time-serving supervisors. Now
the spirit of accomplishment is alive
throughout the government. The peo-
pie of New York now expect good
government. They have lost the dis
tinction of keeping in power the bold
est and frankest political exploiters
in the United States, and are rapidly
achieving the reputation of having
the best governed city in the United
States"

LEADS CLARK
An Exciting Finish Predicted in
The Stars Popularity
Contest.

Like the calm before the storm,
there is a perceptible lull in the voting
which is to decide who is the most
popular cyclist and who will be award
ed the first prize-the handsome two
passenger automobile, the Overland
Speedster, which, of course is the
real magnet in the Evening Stars
cyclists popularity contest. Only
three more days of the contest re-
main, the last voting coupon appear
ing in the Evening Star on Saturday,
June 20. Contestants, however, are
given until o'clock on the evening of
the following Friday, June 26, to de-
post their votes, and according to all
the dope" heard about town, the last
few days will witness a veritable avail
anehe of ballots. Rumor has it that
the employees of one large business es-
adjustment have gathered and are
holding over 10000 votes, and many
other instances of a similar nature
might be quoted. Certain it is that
there will be some startling develop
ments during the last few days, and it
is predicted that the winner of the
contest will have To poll a surprisingly
large vote.
Frank Kramer still leads today with
19,949. Jackie Clark is second with
1879, and these two will. in the pres
ent battle of votes, furnish as much
excitement as they usually do when
they meet on the track. The friends
of both contestants are positive and
determined that their man shall win.
The race for top position in the anna
teur class is no less interesting. Ed
die Kane and Tommy Smith are play
ing a pretty game of see-saw, first one
and then the other showing to the
front.
In both classes, it is claimed. the
final sprint in the stretch will be eX
citing and full of surprises. Today's
standing is as follows:
