A REPLY TO "MR. TAXPAYER."
(Continued from pare Z.l
ied myselt to believe that your Inten
tions were lust, but your Ignorance was
fault Let's see about this salary
business, and do a little figuring our
selves, with the public:
Chief of police, 185; night marshal,
175', extra marshal,,!?!; water super
intendent, 8S; pump man, 7S; re
corder, 110; poundmaster, ISO; attor
ney, 133.11; street superintendent, I7S.
a total of list per month, or I7.8SS
per year, were they all employed

about four months and the pump man
eight or nine months out of each year.
making a total expense of about 17,-
000 on the actual salary list
"The mayor has favored no great
measure." . Let's see. ' Did the mayor
favor the Beaver creek project? Is It
a great measureT Did the father of
this article (he's only an adopted pa)
favor that measureT Now, Mr. Tax
payer, you that I favored, do favor
and always have used my best energies
toward securing this supply cf pure
water, and, as a matter of spite work
because It was a pet measure of mine,
your interest defeated the new charter
and thereby prevented our getting a
good and sufficient supply of pure,
wholesome water for our cltlxens to
use. Still you cry "Look at the mud
dy streets, fllty and dlsease-produtcng
water," etc. Have you any conscience
I say No! For it was those ox your
Ilk that prevented this great under
taking. You say that the mayor Is too
vacillating In his policies, and refer to
my vote on the high license ordinance.
ordinance as being too high. Not at
all, It was too low. I did vote against
the Finn ordinance because It was too
radical and would have put the sa
loons out of business not a province
of six or eight men, but a matter that
should be left to a vote of the people.
You say that I am negligent as a pub
lic officer because a mayor pro tern
signed a few warrants. as I mayor
pro tern?' You know I was not, but
you Insinuate that I was, and try by
your misleading statements to lead the
public to believe that I 'was acting In
that capacity. This warrant was Is.
sued as a rebate on liquor license, and
there Was another man already
paying license for the privilege of run
nlng a saloon at the same place', the
council deemed It right and prop?)
that this man should receive back the
money paid, for which he was rwlv
tng no benefits. This precedent ha,
been followed on many occasions sine?
A warrant Of 1 1 3 B was Voted to assist
In entertaining the Odd Fellows during
their grand lodge meeting In L.-.
Grande, but as the grand lodge him
sufficient funds the city was neve
called on for this or any othor amour:1.
consequently this warrant was neve;
Issued. You make reference to th
125,000 bonds voted to erect the c! .
hall. Was this money judiciously han
died? If there is any one thing tlu.
I am proud of as a city official, it is
the tact that the ways and means com
mittee, of which I was a member, hu
me nanuung or ine construction o
this btllMlng and that the taxpayers
got more' thfrrt Value received for thel

for the Installing of the1 heating plain
for this Bame building, and fid 6ne dt
nies me ract that we got value re
ceived for the outlay; not $4,000 ae
you Insinuate the committee may ha
pocketed. Do we, or did the city ever
pay 115 per month for arc lights, as-
you boldly proclaimed to the public
Is it not a fact that the city contract
was for $8 per month instead of 115
a difference of nearly 100 per cent
In this connection I may say that the
city Is now entering Into a contract at
16 per month for arc lights, to go Into
effect at soon as the company resumes
operation. Incandescents at 13 per
month. I presume this was a "for
candle power," too. Why don't you be
specific in your charges and no: mere
ly skim the surfaces Just because you
think you ran fool the people. I want
to say right here, that during my time
In the council an expense was never
created nor a cent spent on a warrant
drawn that was not authorized by th
council, for good and legitimate pur.
poses. During my tenure In office th
council has been mails up of good,
conservative business men, and during
that time you cannot find a single In
stance In which an official tried to
graft the city. For any other facts
In this matter I call your attention to
the .financial statement of the city
which appears In this Issue of the Eve,
nlng Observer. With this record be
hind me, I leave myself in the hands
of the voters to decide whether or not
they approve of civic Improvement and
moral upbuilding of our progressive
little city. I sign myself, not anonym
ously a "Taxpayer," but very truly,
