Every earnest effort holds tko poa elblllty of success, IF YOTJ had a large business and it was being run eco nomically and efficiently at a very small percentage of cost, "would you tiirn out your manager, who had made good, simply to give someone else a chance to try his hand at it, because he wanted to experiment at your expense? Or would 'ou discharge your tried and proven servants at the instance of some loud-mouthed malcontents who tried to raise "rough house" to satisfy ambition or grat ify spleen? No, you know you would not? If you did your busi ness wouldn't last long, and you would soon be numbered among the failures. That is just the position the city of Mddford is in to day, and you, as a citizen, are in also. You have public administrators who have proved their capacity, their dili gence, their honesty in administering the city's affairs, which are your own affairs. It is to your interest that public affairs be conducted in a businesslike manner. Why, then, should you contemplate a change, simply be cause someone else wants a chance at your expense to show what he can do, or some others want to satisfy per sonal grudges and even up old scores, also at your expense? You will not experiment in your own business, or take chances of loss. Why, then, should you experiment in the public business, which is your own also, and run risk of loss? J'n the coming city election, follow the same course that you would in your private business retain as public serv ants those who have shown their capacity those who have made good and kept the city in the van of progress, and thereby made money for you. What is the sense of changing to untried men and run ning a risk of loss, when you can have those tried and. not found wanting? It is a mere matter of business, of dollars and cents to 1.1. - 1.
