TO the Citizens OF Albuquerque:
The undersigned, constituting ma
iority of the city council of Albuqucr-
que, feel that the time has come when
a statement should be made by us re-
Garding events in the city administra-
tion during the past twenty-five
months. and present conditions in our
city government. This statement is
due to the citizens of Albuquerque
who are entitled to the facts, and It is
due to ourselves, since it deals with
criticisms directed against MS winch
are unwarranted, and IN some i'll
stances viciously malicious.
Attacks Itequirc Reply.
Misstatements of facts have been
made by friends of Mayor Boatright,
and by the mayor himself, both by
word of mouth and through the news
papers, which seek to lay upon us the
blame for existing conditions in the
administration of city affairs; or per-
haps, for the total lack of administra-
ton We have felt that public agita-
tion Of these matters would not
change existing conditions and might
work a further injury to our city in
the eyes of the rest of the state. The
dtl0tkN upon uSt iipNtNtii navy ~"
assumed form so direct, and the ami
mus and purpose behind them have
become so clear that in Justice to our
selves and to the city we cannot fur
ther withhold this statement of facts.
In particular the attacks made upon
MS by Mayor Boatright require re-
ply.
Hands Never Tied.
Mayor Boatright has charged that
his hands have been tied by our
opposition to his measures In the
council and that our sopposition' has
been inspired by political motives We
wish to recall to the citizens of Albu-
duerquc that upon assuming Office
Mayor Boatright attempted to remove,
without the consent of the council, the
chief of police of this city Thomas
McMillin, in order to appoint man
who was the mayors personal choice,
or that Of his political advisers. The
undersigned, majority Of US being
democrats, believed McMillin to be 4
chief of police of exceptional ability
and with the unhlemished record of
good service. We refused to support
the mayor in his dismissal because in
our judgment the man named to re-
place him was not his equal in ability,
efficiency or experience, ana for no
other reason. McMlllin is a republi-
