I speak now of our beloved friend and neighbor, exâ€"Mayor Hawkins.. If there is one regret in passing from the old into the new, it is the regret that this gentleman has retivred. But I feel that I am wise in asking, an sure in acceping, his wise counse ‘and his hearty coâ€"operation in @ll things that spell advancement ‘and achievement for our fair city under its new system of government. The retirement at this time of them in behalf of our citizens for the officers of the old city council, giveg me this oppoflunitzr’to thank their untiring efforts in the perforâ€" mahce of their duty. They, have done much for our city, nor shall their effort fail in fruition if I am given the power and wisdom to diâ€" rect their successorsâ€" in a manner that I trust will develop broader and greater things, thrdugh a conâ€" centrated . and nmontley: sn rt, under a modernized and nbdpartih{l | system . of municipal gove i evoking the greatestâ€"good to th " greatest number, in the simp possible method of business manageâ€" ment.

(With almost astounding development, have we watched the tide of that refining influence, that comes only from ‘great labor, reach The New Water Tower .

We do not seek comâ€" mercialism as much as we seek reaâ€" gons and principles that have made business enterprises successful. \We ‘want the care and management of our beautiful little city in the hands of trustees, whose only:thought and: ambition shall be an utter abandonâ€" ment of selfish motives, and a comâ€" plete resignation to the fullest and ablest accomplishments of all things â€"now and forever for Highland Park. THE WARD LINE, THAT GREAT BARRIER AND MOST BANEFUL FOE OF FREE MUâ€" ‘NICIPAL PROGRESS, has been obâ€" literated, arnid from henceforth Highâ€" land Park shall know no favorites and no voice but the voice of its people, and the least of these shall ‘beâ€" heard. " I realize we haye but started on a new era of betterment, but I know that all things are possible when there is team work, and speaking for myself, I can assure you as capâ€" tain of this team, we are going ‘to try to ka’b the pennant of good govâ€" ernment/where we have nailed it, The recent election is exceedingly gratifying to your new officers,: beâ€" . cause o?:he,hrge Fote ptgled, showâ€" ing the interest of the entire citizen. ship in the new form of government.
