these same men Not if we know ourselves Vote for Mc Adams for mayor and for Wm Mid dleton and Herman Brown for the council AS TO TAXES Do the taxpayers of McCook know that the present city council squeez ed out of them during the year end ing May 2 1910 the sum of 3S3669 in taxes as a water fund besides which tax each consumer paid for the water he used at the 16c rate Do they know that most of this tax of 383669 was paid over by this coun cil to the McCook Water Co for ser vices which the city will perform for itself at almost no cost when it has its own plant Do the voters know that that tax of 383669 which was actually col lected from them over and above the amount of their individual water bills at 16c was almost enough to pay the interest on the entire issue of city water bonds which were voted for a city plant In other words the taxpayers under the management of the present city council have been paying under the courts supervision at least 6 in terest on the capital invested in the old water plant and are then being saddled with almost another 6 tax in the shape of a water fund of 383669 most of which goes to the Water Company And those councilmen who did this are now asking the pec pie to re-employ them to conduct important af fairs Will we do it Are va so rich as not o cie Are we so Mind as not to sf e Are we so dumb as not o We will not vote tor tlu se men again We propose to put in there men who figure men who calculate men who will iperform for the interests of the tax payers and people of McCook Voters Vote for Jas McAdams for mayor and for Wm Middleton and H C Brown for the city council For the figures 383669 see Reso lution city council dated Mav 9th 191m NO CONFISCATION There are a few estimable citizens in McCook who have been led to re gard the municipal ownership cam paign as one carried on for the pur pose of ruining the owners of the present water plant by practically con nscatmg their property They are too quick in drawing their inferences and taking their places in opposition to the movement There is no such Purpose dominating the leaders of the movement There may have been some ill considered expression uttererl violently by some uninformed and experienced helper in the work whose utterance has been heard or heard of and taken as the responsible expres sion of the plan and purpose of the campaign But it would be no more unfair in time of war to take the ir responsible aputterings of mere camp followers than it is to judge this movement in like manner The users of water in McCook are willing to pay and expect to pay for the labor fuel supplies repairs replacements and all other like items involved in the pumping of the water as well as the cost of reading the meters mak ing out the bills receiving and dis bursing the moneys involved and on the top of that an interest charge of six per cent jer annum on the money in the plant Not one farthing less do we hope or expect to get off with To satisfy us that we pay no more the city must operate its own plant In the same manner and by the same token we are willing to deal with the old water plant No confis cation about it There is the good brick pump house There is the com fortable and good brick dwelling used by the engineer There is the In good acres of land lying about the plant on the river There is the stand Pipe with its 19 years of service and exposure behind it There are the cast iron mains lying in the streets possibly as sound as ever but largely misfits as to size and needing to be dug up and replaced having original ly cost in times of high prices from wsvv w aui a ton as against 2500 a ton the price now being paid by the city of Wymore for the pipe delivered for its new plant There are the boilers and pumps old and worn but not worthless All these are usable and palpable in value and all these are acceptable to the men who lead this movement at their fail and honorable value No confiscation is planned No confiscation would be tolerated by the men whose names make up the Peoples Water Ticket These men are not confiscators They have no means derived from any source but persistent industry and economy This talk is only dust thrown up to mislead We have no apologies to offer for the names of McAdams Middleton and H C Brown They are not con fiscators They expect your votes m33jmMKWtmrrAm --5- yv Mirf3 Sthftrs KSi
