NATIONAL Being convinced that the interests of the people of Indianapolis will be served best by the establishment of a nonpartisan govern ment as opposed to party rule which in evitably degenerates into Loss rule we advo cate the total elimination of party lines and the bringing forward of a ticket pledged to an honest and efficient business government We make no attempt to enumerate her? in detail the political evils with which the city is afflicted and from which the parties give no hope of relief They are known to every one who does not shut his eyes Etter In difference to the enforcement of the law and the maintenance of privileged classes who are allowed to profit at the expense ot the community Loth in monev and morals and an administration whose business meth ods ao not command respect characterize our party government which like party gov ernment in all our cities is extravagant In efficient and corrupting We ant and de mand clean honest and enterprising govern ment administered Ly num lug enough to know that a city is the Landing together ot people with common needs and purposes to secure the advantages and necessities of life at the least expense and hy rue best meth ods We want tu put out ot public oflice those who see in it only opportunity for power and spoliation and to put those who see an opportunity for public better ment and prosperity We 'therefore submit the following pint form LAW ENOIICEM ENT We stand fop the enforcement of tii? Ians of the state and city without fear nr favor because we want to make Indianapolis a wholesome city which lo live and work and rear our children We stand for a business administration of tli city There is no mvstery about the i city's business any more than that nf a large corporation It calls for the applicatmn of! the same degree of intelligence and vigilance that is used in the problems of fiailv life It calls for a dollar's worth of value for every dollar of taxes expended without rake off to favored interests or grafters It calls for a cessation of alliance with public util ity companies brewers saloons winerooms and all others wliose purpose is selfish and whose influence Is demoralizing and destruc tive In a community ruled by law there can be no discrimination no secret instruc tions to the police or modifying intrigues with special Interests Public business should he conducted in the open and not behind closed doors Tho social evil has no standing under the law and must not be condoned or connived at by city officials as has been the practice in the past it entails untold misery upon posterity as well as upon those guilty of its defiling practice Extermination not segre gation or commercialized vice must be the attitude of good government toward this evil 14 A I We favor the granting of public franchises onlv upon such terms as will safeguard the interests of the people in parting with valu able rights keeping in view the fact that all franchise values are the common property of all the people We favor the holding of all public utility companies to the terms nt their eontrncts the proper extension of street car facilities and the building of cross town linos The civil service rui adopted immediate ly after our present city charter went into effect and which have been ignored for pear ly a quarter of a century should le vitalized and should control the city administration No competent employe now serving tho city should be discharged because of his political belief and no incompetent person should he employed or retained on account of party membership A system of promotion should prevail in all departments especially the fire and police to the end rhat the highest posi tions may be open to those whose service has shown that they are worthy of them We favor tin immediate application of the merit system to al) the departments of the city government and we stand for the total elimination of machine politics in making appointments 7 enure of office should be made sure and certain by strict attention to the city business and faithful einplowi should be free to perform then duties with out fear of ii'ditlcal assassination HNANtING CAMPAIGNS condemn the practice of political par ties iinanuing campaigns with contnuu tions from special interests to be repaid hv giving them special privileges to impose upon the people or to violate the law which should be enforced on all alike No political assessment under the guise of should be permitted bv partv machines and all citv employes should be protected from such political blackmail We favor the prosecution ot track eleva tion work as rapldlv as funds can be avail able to the end that the old time grade crossing barrier between the South and North Sid's of the city shall be eliminated and gen eral traffic conditions Improved We disap prove any provisions entering into the track elevation contract that would in any way bind the city to pay anv part of the cost of providing tor more tracks than existed at hie lime of such elevation oppose the depression of streets rs a part of such track elevation plans believing that streets should remain as near as may be at grade level DUTIES believe that policemen should he em ployed their Leals the inspection of streets houses
