Carroon, Dittmer And VESSEL, Filed BY
Former Senator Bettwy

Recall petitions against Mayor J.
E. Wise and Aldermen Frank B.
Carroon, E. j. Dittmer and E. A.
VESSEL, who were elected last
spring for two year terms, are ex-
pected to be placed in circulation
today. va
Affidavits for the recall and re-
moval from office of the four Of
ficials were filed Monday afternoon
with City Clerk r. H. Bibolet by
Former State Senator Andrew Bet
twy, who was chairman of re-
cent mass meeting at which the
four were cenSured for sanctioning
the sale Of property for delinquent
paving assessments.
Under the city charter the city
clerk was compelled to prepare the
recall petitions and he said yester-
day morning they were ! nearing
completion. Three hundred and two
names will be neces ary on the Pc
titions before an election can be
called.
Bettwy, in his affidavits, alleges
that the four officials, promised. if
elected, they would fulfill the fol-
lowing pledges:
Economy, meaning good gov
ernment at the lowest cost:
Reduction of water rates;
Accurate testing by the City
of all electric, gas and water
meters;
Extension of time for pay
ment of paving assessments;
consolidation of the offices
of City Clerk and Superintend-
ent of Streets at no additional
salary"
and that each "has broken each
and every one of such promises
and pledges, thereby betraying the
confidence of the voters who elect
ed them to office, and that conduct
of said office is autocratic, arbi-
trary, and designed to favor spe-
cial interests instead of the general
welfare of said City and its inhabi-
tants." ......
