Announcement; r:' To the Voters: My supporters for the coming mayoralty election next Tuesday, April 21, have asked me to make a statement regarding the vicious rumors being circulated that the present appointive holders of jobs, namely, city marshal, city collector and street cleaner, would be dismissed and others given the positions, if I am elected. I hope the citizens of this community have enough confidence in my integrity and spirit of fair dealing, that they will not allow themselves to be influenced by such fals«K political propaganda. I repeat what has been said in previous announcements that I am an independent candidate. No promises have been asked of mfe *b^ any faction, nor made by me, and, if elected, my motto will be "a square deal to all" and real service to the community. I take this last opportunity of urging every voter to go to the polls next Tuesday and cast their ballot according to the dictates of their own conscience. The confidence you will place in my behalf by giving me your vote, I assure, you will be appreciated and will result, I hope, with the co-operation of the city council, tn a lasting service to the city of McHenry. • Very sincerely yours, A.
