TUE OMAHA DAILY BEE : TUESDAY , JULY -I , 1893 , PURE MILK FOR THE PEOPLE i v floard of Health Decides to Enforce Rigid Inspection at Onco. 'ANOTHER MEAT INSPECTOR APPOINTED ncporU of lnnpoelorSnnllnrjr Condition of the School lulliliiiK Supt. Olllei- plo or the Iimtlluto lor the Denr Mnlco * a I'Icn. At n meeting of the Board of Health yes- tcrday afternoon It wns decided to begin a crusnilo against dealers In mllte who pcr- eisted In furnishing an Inferior quality of the lacteal fluid. Uhoro has hcon a number of complaints that Rood mlllc could not bo had. People who were situated so that they could not , keep a cow certainly have grounds for grumbling at some of the stuff which has been sold as milk and which under test proves to bo a base counterfeit. There hare boon an ordinance before the council for some tlmo Intended to rcculato the milk trafllc In this city. The Hoard of Health has decided to urge Its passiiuo at onco. At a recent meeting of the board , Health Commissioner Somors was Instructed to order an Inspection of the milk which was being sold from wagons , and Inspector Holmcn was appointed for that purpose. Ho InBpectcd forty-two dairies and reported as follows : Condition of barns , fair ; condition Of stock , good ; water supply , good ; drata ngo , In most cases good ; samples of mult tested. 101 ; samples below standard , twenty- nix ; highest test , -1 8-5 per cent ; lowest test , lltf per cent. , . , As the legal standard requires that milk shall contain 3 per cent of butter Mt It Is plain to bo seen that there has been some jnlghty poor milk sold. The highest grade- Is none too high and shows that the milk dealers are not too careful about the quality jf the lluid they deal out to cus tomers. In nearly all cities now the milk dealers are visited at least once a week by nn Inspector , who floes not forewarn the dealers , and ho makes n nubile state ment of the tests made. If a dealer Is shown to have been careless , dishonest , or unclean , ho Is subjected to a flno of $50 for each offcnso. Inspector Holmes was instructed to notify all city dealers that hereafter their supplies would bo tested and the tests made public so that the purchasers will bo Insured a better class of milk. Inspection ol Mcnt. Another thing which occupied the atten tion of the board was the question of ap pointing William Parr as assistant meat Inspector for the next four months. There was considerable discussion as to the salary ho was to receive , as the ordinances specify that an Inspector shall re ceive $100 per month. It was finally agreed that an assistant should be appointed subject to the orders of Dr. Somers of the board , and his salary was llxcd at fCO pel- month. Mr. Purr is an ox-inspector and Is Bald to bo well qualified for the ofllco. Judg ing from the complaints made to the board about unhealthy meat , an assistant Inspector is badly needed. Inspector Prunck was called before the board and said that ho had 1ST retail shop * and twenty-live wholesale houses to look after and got around to each of them about once a week. At first ho said ho was not overworked , but when questioned about the spoiled meat being sent to the county Jail and the poisoning of the Lehnig family by unhealthy food , he Bckno\vlcdccd that two men could do better than one.

THREE MAJORS GUILTY OF CONTEMPT Mnjor Ilnlcomlio's Tent Cnso for Snlnry no- chlcd in III * Tnvor Viitrlots Around CltJUiiU BiclilnR teen on tlio llonit. The Board of Public Works of Omaha Is enjoying considerable prominence In a Judi cial nnd political way Just now. As previ ously published In THE DEC , the three mem bers of the nforcsald board wcro nrrcstc'l several days ago on the charRO of violating nn order of Injunction Issued by Judge Wal ton. This temporary Injunction applied to the paving of Twenty-fourth street , near Pierce. Tlio members of the hoard did not heed the restraining order of the court. They wcro accordingly arrested on the charge of contempt. During the early morning hours the thrco majors , Blrkhaiihor. Kuray and Balcombe. who constitute the Board of Public Works , walked into Judge Walton's room , whcro they expected to vindicate themselves and show that there was no reason why they should bo sent to Jail or fined. When time was called by the bailiff yester day morning Mr. Baldwin was given tno first Inning , nnd ho opened out nt once by turning a battery of sltot Into City Attorney Council. Ho said that the legal adviser of the city had told him that it was not the intention of the city to grade. Picrco street until such time ns the grade was changed to correspond with that of Twentieth , but slnco that time ho had become satisfied that Connell had lied and that ho did not intend to have the grade of the latter street changed. All that ho had asked was to have the grading postponed until such time ns the agreement was made good. Notwithstanding the the agreement , Mr. Baldwin contended that the city had given him the double cross and that wnllo his mind was at case , the grad ing ordinance had been passed and the ap praisers appointed to fix the damages. Those appraisers had found damages In the sum of Sfl.OOO , but'tho council had taken no stops looking to n liquidation of that sum , nor had there been any tender. Wanted nn Early Decision. "What would become of the county com missioners , and what would become of the Judges of this court , If they followed the opinions of County Attorney Kuloyt" asked Mr. Baldwin , and then answering the ques tion himself , ho said : "If .they took his opinions for law they would bo under arrest the same as those members of the Board of P.'blic Works are today. " sslstant City Attorney Cornish , In the aba'onco of City Attorney Conncll , remarked that the street was In a dangerous condition and that it was necessary to get an early de cision In order that come disposition of the grading matter could bo mado. "Yes. It's In a dangerous condition , " ro- tortcd Mr. Baldwin , "but it has been made so by the illegal acts of the members of this board while acting under the illegal advice given them by the legal representative of the city. " Mr. Cornish remarked that the board had followed the spirit but not the letter of the law , and that , the members were ready to admit that they were in contempt. That being true , the case could bo disposed of in liort order. Guiltof Contempt. In passing sentence , Judge Walton said : 'Owing to the circumstance , I think that I hall ha"o to punish j ou all. While you are not willfully guilty , you nro technically so and you will have to pay the costs of this action. " Major Puray oycd the chairman of the > oard and as soon ns ho had captured his breath , ho mounted hHTfoet to say that ho did not thinlr. that ho was guilty. The chairman , ho said , had never informed him that thcro was a restraining order in exist ence nnd that as ho did not know that ono md been Issued , ho could not sco how ho lad been In contempt. Ho did not think that it was right for him to bo lined for the wicked acts of ono of his associates. This aroused the ire of the chairman , who , hre\v it back at Mr. Furay by remarking , hat if the other members of the board dia not know of the existence of the order It was because they wore not around the office attending to their duties. Then in his own behalf ho told the court that It had been the custom of the chairman ot the board ! o order 11 work , as the other members had always boon willing for him to assume the respon sibility. The court still insisted that all the mem- ] crs should bo served alike and that the fine would stand against each. Some ono of the members , ho said , might bo more to blame ; hun others , but if they stood by and al lowed the commission of wrongful acts , thcj would have to tuko the consequences. SIGHINl , TO SU11VE. Patriots In Plenty \Vlio Dculr'o to Knllit Ir the Municipal Army. Politicians , high and low , possessors o : great influence and some possessors of 1m aginary influence , ramble in and out of the city hall. Some of them go in droves , while the more pretentious go alone. They are al on a common mission and Mayor Bemis ii compelled to withstand their appeals am prayers. Today Is the eventful first Tuesday Ii July , when a few political crumbs are to bi thrown to the hungry , nnd tliero is a herd ( of them. The Board of Public Works Is to bi reorganized , or reconstructed , or something It Is certain that at least ono mcmbc will bo appointed , and it may bo thrci aspirants will find their fond hopes realized All of tlio score or more of candidates are ang ling for the position of chairman , now heli by Major Birkhauser , who will stop dowr and out because his term expires , and tin public demands that ho bo not rcappointed The situation i a peculiar ono. Kverybod ; ' is at bca and the political' lightning is an un certainty. There are schemes and counte schemes , rumors and counter rumors , Mayo Bemis holds the key to the situation and h has thus far refused to turn It for the bcnc fit of inquiring eyes. Ho listens to the vis itors.who are us numerous as well dovclope house files at this season of the year , an fully as persistent. The mayor has liardl , been permitted n moment's rest during tli past week. All of the candidates uro a work and so are their frionds. Thny ovei clamored for audiences with his honor o the Sabbath day. and the divine injunctio counted for naught among the wire pullcn Simmered down , It Is a mad scramble for p ( sltlo'n , and everything else must stand aside Mayor Bcmls is standing the ordeal wol and no candidate or his friends can complai that their claims have not bucu fully hour nnd considered. There is a well defined rumor clrcuiatln about tljo corridors of the city building t the effect that three new members may b appointed , and the majors loft toustlo ! ft themselves. If tills proves the case Majc Puray and Major Balcombo would uttcmi by quo warranto proceedings to oust tt now members. In this way the legal con plications could bo settled by the courts , i all of the questions Involved would bo pn Bcnted , The members of the council do not hosltal to say that tliero must bo an entirely ne board , nnd that they will never confirm t ! designations of the two majors , in case sue ovonl occurs.

Mayor Denilsj will file his communication with the council this afternoon. That body will mcot this evening , and the mem bers are undocidcd as to whether any busi ness will bo transacted on account of it bolng a legal holiday. In 11 tlrotnho'H 1'iivor. Judircs Walton and Ferguson , assisted by numerous lawyers , were engaged yesterday In trying toconssruo the city charter in an attempt to discover whether the muyor will name one or thrco members of the Board of Public Works nt the next moot ing of the council. The action was brought on by St. A. I ) . Dnlcombo. n member of the present Board of Public Works , who sues to recover the Increased salary provided for by the terms of the now charter which was passed by the last legislature , and In the demand for the Increase the whole ques tion of the mayor's right Is at Issue. The now law , which was passed with an emergency clause , says that the members constituting the board shall bo named by the mayor on the first Tuesday of July , and annually thereafter. Assistant Attorney Cornish contended that the intention of the citizens' committee which framed the now charter was that the amendment was to abolish the old Board of Public Works , and that it was so expressed In the bill which was presented nnd passed the senate , the cUuso reading that the mem bers should bo apiiointcd by the mayor on the first Tuesday in July , and that annually thereafter there should bo ono now member appointed and confirmed by the city council. Attorneys Walieley nnd Covell , who wcro called Into the cnso to assist Mr. Cornish , have expressed their views to the court. Mr. Wakclcy was of the opinion that the mayor could name but ono of the mem bers , and that the others would servo right along in accordance with the term and pro visions of the old chaitcr. He , however , thought that the mayor could not designate which of the members should act as the chairman of the board. Mr. Covell took a broader view of the case and went BO fnr ns to hold that the new charter abolished the old board and g.ivo ttio mayor full and unlimited power to ap point three members and designate which should be the chairman. The lawyers continued their arguments during the afternoon , nnd at a late hour Judges Ferguson nnd Walton decided that Major Balcombo was a full-fledged member of the board and that ho was entitled to the increased salary ns contemplated by thopro- vlslons of the now charter. In passing upon this question the Judges passed upon some other iwiuts Intended to aid the mayor In reorganizing his now Board of Public Works and getting It In shnpo for the continuation of the summer worlc. In roviswing the law tlio judges held that tomorrow the term of Chairman Birkhauser would expire nnd that there would bo a vacancy which the mayor could lill by appointment , but that Iho appoint ment would have to bo confirmed by the council at the next or bomosubsequent meet ing. The passage of the amended charter did in no wise shorten or lengthen the terms of the other members , but loft them alone , though their oBicial titles foil from thorn and after the council had confirmed the appoint ment of the now member , the mayor was at liberty to designate the chairman , the sewer inspector and the sidewalk commissioner without the nid , consent or approval of the members of the city council.
