At the suggestion of Mayor Shaw the candidates began their addresses. Alderman Bell was the first, Alderman White second, and Alderman Graham third. Fach candidate had a number of admire asm was shown Alderman throughout the proceedings. Alderman White's speech was short and pointed. He referred to his chair- manship of two committees, his serv- ing on all important committees, and his independent course on all ques tions. He said that if elected his course as mayor would be character- ized with the same fearlessness and independence. Alderman Bell in replying to Alder- Graham man Graham, showed that the last named had a deficit of $12.26 as the chairman of parks. The speaker sail that Alderman Graham was wrong in saying that the budget of this year showed gu déficit of ): the butchers' license fee was raised, he said, be- cause the butchers requested it; the hizh license fee reduced because of the scarcity of meat in the market. | He accused Alderman Graham of hav- ing collected money for a fountain and had not returned it. Alderman White had nothing to say in reply to the former speakers. Alderman Graham, in reply, stated that for the proposed fountain in the City Park, he had collected $10 from one party, £5 from another, and sev- eral small amounts which he had turned; one sum of fifty cents and an other of #1 he had not returned; he surely was good for that amount.
