In the City o( Wayeroai, on the eve
ning of October 12th, a repreientatlre
body of men, gathered from all walks

Whereas, by a majority ballot of

Meeks was endorsed for Alderman,
Second Ward, W. E. Chandler for
Alderman Fourth Ward, and C. A.
LeCount for Alderman, Slsth Ward,—
these being the only Aldermen to be

Whereas, by the endorsement of
these candidates for nomination at
tha primary, as men deemed'worthy
do bear the standard raised by this
meeting; It becomes proper and right
that the purposes tor which this
meeting stood, and for which the or
ganisation there effected stands,

idmlnlstcred honestly, economically
tnd equitably. The Tax rate should

meeting the needs for revenue, and
til property should be aliened alike.
I mcnt to our schools, colleges add oth
er educational Inatltutlons. The needa
tor a ppbllc library la apparent, and
steps should be taken to secure one
without delay. All our ellemosynary
Institutions should be fostered and
aided, and especially do we commend
the Kings' Daughters Hospital for Its
noble work.
We condemn all Inequalities In as-
raextnenla as rank favorl|Usm, and
plcdgo oursoKcs to an assessment
sased on raluo not *on ownership.
Kt believe that the Street Tax should
M made not to oxcoed *2.00 per an

payers should be adjusted only after
t full hearing and an examination oi

Therefore, be It resolved—
l That the Citizens League, forty-

8QUARE DEAL, for both rich
poor, high and low,—No favoriusm
tinder the law,' but JUSTICE
That In order to meet out exact

Resolved It. That this organisation
itands fo'r progress. We believe In a
progressive age, add In a progressive
city. No backward step should be
taken. Not only should our tax, rate
so as low as possible consistent with
the city’s legitimate needs, but the
money so collected should be expend
'd to the very beet possible ad van-
tags, with neither waste nor graft
The Sinking Fund provided to meet
the outstanding bonds should be kept
Intact and so Invested as to bring
the best returns, so that the payment
of bonds may be made promptly and
our credit preserved. Next to the
preservation of our qredU, M outlined
above, cornea the needs for streets,
sidewalks and drainage, and these
should be Improved Just as fast as
'practicable, but the work should be
done by a competent Supervisor, un
der bond for faithful, honeht work,
so that the money spent for these
Improvements may be a permanent
gain to the city. Weeding edges of
street* and throwing satid In the mid
dle. Is a waste of time and energy,
front which no benefit Is derived.-We,
stand for hard surfaced streets and
for the laying of good sidewalks - lor
the people who walk thereon.
Resolved, in. That this organise-

Rosolved,' IV. That this organize-

sation, In money or service, to, the
city or Its people. We believe the
time has come tor the city to own Its
City Hall, add favor the erection or
purchase of such building as will be
adequate to the needa uf the erty for
the next decade at least, believing
the same to be conducive ip economy
In public service, and for the better
management of city affairs. A cen
tral CRy market should be provided
for as early as pihctlcable; also the
garbage of the City should be removed
frequently, and cremated or other
wise disposed otfo as not to monace
the public health.
This declaration of principles la put
forth for thft purpose of defining the
position of those responsible for the,
Citizens League movement, knd we
heartily Invite all who desire good
government for Waycrosa, who be
lieve In these principles, who' desire
equal rights to all. special privllgea
to none, to Join with us In carrying
