WEBSTERS DICTIONARY
There is a word which Websters
Unabridged Dictionary defines as fol
lows a state of government or so
ciety where individuals do what they
please with impunity Hence Con
fusion It is not necessary that build
ings be burned or houses and stores
plundered the condition exists all
right if the sovereign will the man
date of the people be disregarded or
disobeyed McCook has seen some of
it in the past two years The sov
ereign voters recorded their mandate
as duly provided by law They did
all that is laid down No act was
omitted Their command was corn-
plete It was to the city council It
pay Yet we find the council men
upon whom this mandate was laid p
suming to use the following language
If after a careful consideration of the
entire question it shall seem for the
best interests of the city that a mun
icipal plant be installed at this time
the Republican candidates will be in
favor of its installation
Thereupon they proceeded for the
past tun years to do nothing to carry
out this mandate of the sovereign
power On the contrary we find them
very busy in concocting a new fran
chise for the old plant at a largely
increased rate for twenty years to
come When questioned in public
meeting as to why they had not sold
the bonds and built the plant they
answered weakly that they couldnt
sell the bonds and didnt think it the
right time to build and said in gener
al terms there were other reasons
besides By inference they didnt
think and do not think the right
time will occur within the next 20
years as they attempted giving the
right to own and operate the plant
to the same old company regardless
of the expressed will and decree of
the people to own and operate it for
themselves
Yet these are the men Voters of
McCook who ask you to return them
to the positions they have abused
that they may still further work their
own pleasure in place of doing the
commands of the sovereign people
Voters of McCook Let your re
buke be with no uncertain voice Let
your votes be cast for Jas McAdams
for mayor and Wm Middleton and
H C Brown for councilmen
These are the men who have led
the present indignant uprising of the
voters of McCook against the high
handed proposals of the present coun
cil and they may be trusted to do
the will of the people as laid down
by the people
TWO YEARS AGO
Two years ago the people feared
the influence of the Water Company
pyith the city council as it would con
sist if the Republican candidates wer
elected They forced from the candi
dates Messrs Waite and McConnell
a written and signed statement which
was circulated by the candidates on
the 3rd day of April 09 in which
they denied the rumor that they pro
posed to extend the franchise of
the Water Co for 20 years or for any
other period
How does that agree witii their
veiy recent effort to give the old
Water Co a 20 year franchise
Jn that statement they declared
The Republican candidates are un
alterably opposed as they have re
peatedly said to the purchase of the
old water plant by the city If un
alterably opposed how can they now
well serve the people in the possible
purchase of the old plant at a fair
valuation New measures demand
new men They are on the shelf and
discarded by the march of events
New men are needed
Their statement further said in
black and white The city council
is equally without power to extend the
franchise of the present company at
this time the franchise now in ex
istence still having more than four
years to run Yet we see them in
less than two years coming to the
front with a new 20 year franchise
at a great increase in the price of
water How is that for faithfulness
Their card further said So far as
the ouesticn of rates is concerned
there is not now any proposition to
increase them What No proposi
tion to increase them Why At
that very minute the Water Co was
engaged in a tussle with the
city in the courts in which they
were contending for an increase
in the rates in Avhieh conten
tion the courts did net sustain
them but sent them back to pump
the water at the lCc rate They fail-
ordered the construction of a muni 1 ed tc convince tbe district court or the
cipal water plant It specified the j supreme court that they could not
cost it provided tne runus it lert run aL io
nothing to the council except the ex-
Thsy further said The
ercise of its business judgment in the nance fixing the 16c rate is in ex-
matter of the DETAILS of the enter

posed of the principal matters of when
istence and has four years to run
and the Republican candidates are
net in favor of an increase in the
rate
Well Fellow Citizens they said all
to build what to build how much to that but inside of twenty four monthi
we find them at the front with a new
franchise ready to hand it over to
the same old Water Co raising the
rate 25 on the people and extend
ing the Water Cos franchise for
20 years

mandate Will we send them back foi
