(Omr own correspondent.) It is my wish to return thanks to The Enterprise for its reply to my defeat in the recent municipal elec- tion. I was not acquainted with the reppersmiths and tinsmiths and other smiths that were mentioned. but however I admit that I love kicks. They make me work harder. I like kindly criticisms. tun, they keep me enmimraged. That is why I am game to try again. and, shou‘ld failure be) my luck, I‘ll try again. The reason I failed was because ll was strongly in favor of commuting statute labor. and although I was defeated. I still maintain that it would still be to our benefit. But I am not in favor of doing away with pathmasters and letting the commisâ€" sioners spend all the money. Better than that. I say that every eligible voter pay a tax of at least $15.00 and. do a day’s roai‘lwork or pay for same. and also. if they are going to assess a business mana buiness tax. allow him the privilege of doing a business and prohibit jobbers doing this and3 that. and cutting prices to beat the business man. I do notsay any- thing against a man doing his. own work to save expenses. I am game to help and show him how if it is in my power. because a nun who is a saver for himself is a prosperous sort of fellow. It. is wood. wood. and morn wood.
