Ticket in Largely Attended
Mass Convention

and appointVe officials in the nation
state and county
We point with pardonable pride to
its achievements, and inspired and
guided thereby we face the problems
of the future with optimistic conf
dence in the ability of its leaders to
solve them to the satisfaction of the
people
we commend the excellent bust
ness record OF the present city ad-
ministration and compliment the OIL
Gals of Wallace upon the capable
manner in which they have managed
its affairs and husbanded its finances
SO as to avoid placing unnecessary
burdens upon the taxpayers.
In the face of the most trying and
changing financial conditions. they
have not only kept well within the
financial limits imposed by law, but
in addition thereto have actually re-
duced the outstanding bonded in
debtedness of the city approximately
$4,000 They successfully resisted a
vigorous effort to increase the light
and power rates paid by the citizens
of the community and secured mater
al reductions in the fire insurance
premiums required to be paid within
the corporate limits Of the city.
I'VE are proud of the fact that al
communities have suffered epidemics
of robbery grand larceny and other
serious offenses, by reason or the Wig
lance Of our officials no such condi-
tons have arisen or exist in Wallace.
I'VE pledge our candidates to the
most rigid economy compatible with
an intelligent and progressive bust
ness administration, and to a har-
monious and sincere cooperation with
state and county officials in an effort
to fairly and impartially enforce all
laws and ordinances"
