OnAND ISLAND, Nob., Sept. 5. (Special.)
At the meeting of tho city council last
evening tho ordlnnnco fixing tho salaries
ot city officials, In compliance with the
new charter, was placed on first reading.
A general reduction was made, according
to tho provisions of tho charter, and an
Intorestlng situation was found In refer
ence to the sexton of tho ceraotery. When
tho city bought the cemetery and began
Its administration, tho ordluanco providing
for tha nppolntment of n sexton was so
drafted that succeeding mayors could not
use tho offlco for politics and tha sextou
could bo removed only by a vote of the
council.
The council desires to raise tho pay of
tho sexton, who Is now receiving $40 a
month and freo residence In the lodge,
but finds that tho statutes provide that tho
salary cannot be changed while tho present
sexton Is holding olllco nnd they do not
wish to remove him. It Is believed that It
will bo necessary for him to resign and
later be reappointed In order to havo his
salary raised. ,
