Upon that record he must stand or fall. His whole political Career has proved that he has stood with the people as against the political bosses. If loyalty appeals to a man you will vote for Von As Mayor John Von Bergen inherited Tin extra operating expense in the Bureau of Ashes and Garbage Collection of $73,244.00.

No former Mayor had to meet that expense. Under Acta of the Legislature there were created the ureau of Mine Inspection and Surface Support at a cost of 9,476.00 Bureau of Meter Inspection at a cost of 1225.00 Bureau of Sealer of Measures at a cost of 2,237.50 Ten additional firemen for the new houses built and equipped at a cost of 3'60000 A grand total in the increased cost of operating Scranton's government of $89,782.50 John Von Bergen," as Mayor, was forced to meet that expense mark you, he did not create it It was created and forced on the city by law. AND NO OTHER MAYOR HAD TO MEET THAT EXPENSE OF $89,782.50. Not a dollar was borrowed to pay a single item of that added cost. HOW WAS IT MET? BY RAISING TAXES? NO! TAXES WENT DOWN.

HERE IS THE tax rate each year as it was when Von Bergen became Mayor, and as it has been each year of his administration; and bear in mind the City Tax is the only tax a Mayor can affect City Tax Rate per $1,000 for 1909 $7.34 A Rate nr 1.000 for 1910 $7.03 Nagle 4.
