The generafgg Stzjti lafvlgcygtlie incorporation of cities, approved April 10, 1872, came E3 mtoe ect uy , . E July 3, 1872, a petition was presented to the Board of Trustees asking that the question of the adoption of a city government be submitted to the voters of the town. The petition was granted and the question was submitted to the voters August 6, 1872. The vote for city organization was 261g against, 22. August 29, 1872, the lirst election for city officers was held. S The first Mayor of Moline was Daniel L. NVheelock. In 1911 the City adopted Commission Form of Government, electing Martin R. Carlson, Mayor, re-electing him again in 1915. Tn 1918 at a special election the proposition of going back to Aldermanic Form was carried by a large major- ity and at the spring election in 1919, the Aldermanic Form again went into elfect The City of Moline has made exceptional progress in the way of. public improvements. The Vtlater Department with the methods of nltration is thor- oughly up-to-date. All services are metered. The Fire Department is entirely S motorized and considering its size is most efhcient. The same can bc said ot E the Police Department. Moline has been exceptionally free from immoral con- it E ditions and its administrations have been tree from the accusation of graft or S unfair dealings. From a health standpoint the City is .in an exceptionally envi- E able condition owing to the activity ot the City Physician co-operating with the S Z Z Health Department. S Many improvements could be made if money was available, but taking. it all in all, 1 believe Moline stands in a very enviable position compared to cities of its size. Ei .
