NEW COUNCIL DODGE
ISSUES FIRST TIME UP
l'ar from developing the stir
ring interest anticipated, the ini
tial meeting of the new city coun
cil was a rather tame affair and
beyond the .appointment of the
various standing committees, the
adoption of the rules of the pre
ceeding council and the fixing of
the bonds of the city clerk and ■
treasurer, nothing of importance ;
was accomplished. The question
of appointments was dodged 1
completely and the appointees of
the previous council will there
fore remain in office until the next
meeting Monday night In the
absence of a definite frame up,
the council were up in the air a
mile and declined to act until
star chamber proceedings have
been indulged. A big crowd was
on hand to witness the fun ex
pected to develop when the coun
cil took up the question of ap
pointments but they received lit
tle reward for their pains and re
tired expressing intense disgust
with the vacillating inclinations
displayed bv the city dads. The
business of the fifteen council was
dispatched in a hurry. All were
present at roll call with Maa'or
Diamond in the chair. The min
utes were read and approved.
The report of the citv treasurer
was read showing that the sum
of Sa.4ra.aa was on hand to the
credit of the city.
The report of the city clerk
correspond therewith. The city
magistrate’s report was read
showing two arrests during the
month and fines and fortfeitures
amounting to $100.
City Attorney Hobbes reported
that there was no pending litiga
tion and that the only unfinished
court matter is the presentation
of the delinquent tax roll for 1915
to the district court for adjust
ment. Suggestion was made that
the council resolution relative to
the exclusion of the sandspit
from taxation be incorporated in
th** court order so that the por
tion of the city sought to be
elminated shall not be exposed
for sale.
He also recommended that a
telegram be forwarded to the
delegate, requesting the introduc
tion and pasage of a bill elimin
ating that portion of the city ly
ug south and west of the river

tion of the council.

lareelv resnousible for his elec

The work of drawing lots for

lows: One year term, McAllister
Poteet, Thompson, two year term
Rose, Ross and Burgh. Thomp
son presented a copy of the rules
governing the meetings of the
previous council and moved that
they be adopted and read. Rose
seconded but Hurgh entered an
objection stating that the legisla
ture had created new laws gov
erning city councils and he
thought that new rules should be
adopted to conform thereto.
The mayor called for a vote on
the matter but Burgh again ob
jected- Thompson rose to a point
of order and roll call was ordered.
Burgh, Ross and McAllister vot
ed no and Thompson, Rose and
Poteet, yes. As the vote was
tied, Mayor Blake announced that
he would vote yes. Burgh stated
that he did not think that the
mayor had a vote and also offered
some remarks about going too
fast and that the council better
adjourn and hold a caucus. The
mayor replied by stating that the
question of whether the mayor
was eneitled to a vote was, like
many other things, open to de
bate and he would vote in this
case anyway. He then ordered
a reading of the rules just adopt
ed. The procedure of adopting
first and finding out what had
been adopted afterward brought
a smile to many a face in the big
audience, while Burgh subsided
with an air of disgust. The rules
were read and the mayor then
inquired if they had been adopted
stating he thought that it was
Voted that they be read. Thomp
son said that he had moved that
they be read and adopted and
they were, therefore, adopted.
The mayor asked if a second
reading was required and Thomp
son informed him it was not
necessary. Thompson then hand
ed in an ordinance fixing the sal
aries of city employes but before
