8 THE OMAHA PATLY BEE ? WEDNESDAY , JULY 13 , 1801. CITY COUNCIL PROCEEDING Trunk Kaspar Made a Member of tlio Boai of Public Works. REFUSED TO GIVE PARDEE A CONTRAC Stop * TuUrn to llrliiR tlio AVImloof DoiiRl County Under Ono Onvrrnmnnt Jtcannnfl tor thU iin .Stated In the KcRoltitlonii Adopted Frank J. Kaspar Is the now member i the Board of Public Works , Ills nan- was sent to the council by the mayor la : evening and the appointment was conflrmci On motion of Lenity , the roll was calk on confirmation , will ! the following resul Yeas Ilrchcl , Burkley , Calm , Elsasser , Hai call , Holmes , Lcmly , McAndrews , Parke Jlowell 10. Nays Hach , Ilruncr , Edward Jacobscn , Saundcrs , Spccht , Thomas , Whcelc 8 , The appointment carried with It the fo lowing designation of the duties of the men bers of the board for the ensuing year : II. Wlnspear , chairman ; St. A. D. Halcombi eowor commissioner ; Frank J. Kaspar , strcc commissioner. The bond of the now appointee was pn tented for approval , with John Koslckj Charles Mctz and William P. Russell a Burettes , Wheeler objected to the approvt of the board on the ground that the word "and until his successor Is duly elected an qualified , " were not In harmony with th charter , which , according to his Interprets tlon , did not allow a member of the board t hold over after his term had expired. Clt Attorney Council differed with him and th bond was approved. The following veto from the mayor wa not sustained , the Wiley crowd uncovcrln exactly the twelve votes necessary to over rldo the mayor's action : I herewith return without my npprova a concurrent resolution authorizing the clt electrician or other person In charge o that olllce to employ a , competent rnnn t assist him nt a salary not exceeding J80 pe month , the appointment of such nsslslan to bo subject to the approval of the coun ell , for the reason that at the present Urn there Is no city electrician , nor Is thcr any person In charge of that odlco with th legal rlifht or authority to perform th < duties of a city electrician. Nolwlthsland Ing the fact mat nx long ago as June I made an appointment to fill thin olllce m action whatever has been taken by thi council with reference to said appointment but nil papers relating to the same havi been retained and held back by the chair man of the committee on judiciary , wh < has thereby prevented action from belm taken , and has further prevented a repor being made with reference to Bald appoint tnent by the other members of said conv tnlttcc. I also veto this resolution for tlu reason that It contemplates , In plain vlola tlon of the provisions of the charter , tc take away the clear right of the mayoi to appoint an assistant city electrician , ever if tnicli an olllclal was needed. It cannot but bo understood by any councilman whc wishes to know the truth that no right car be conferred by ordinance or resolution on any person other than the mayor to make appointments. An attempt to appoint an assistant city clecrlclun , like the attempt to 1111 the olllce of city electrician , will be contented In the courts nnd will eventually bo held to be unauthorized. I further veto this resolution for the reason that with a competent city electrician there Is no neces sity at the present time of employing nn assistant electrician at a salary of $80 per month , or any other sum. It is not a suffi cient answer to this objection to say that the money required to pay the salary of the proposed assistant can bo realized out of those who use electricity , for the burden on the citizens nnd taxpayers of Omaha would be as grievous to bo borne in the form of fees as If enforced In the form of a general tax. The following veto was sustained by a margin of ono vote : I have vetoed an Item in the last appro priation ordinance , belnc : nn Item In favor of the Barber Asphalt Paving company in the sum of $1'.250.SS. for the reasons stated In my veto of this same claim Just one month ago , namely : The payment of this amount Is a recognition of an old claim for street repairs claimed to have been made during the year ISat , when It Is no torious that the street repairs for that year wore not made In conformity with the contract , nnd were not made as required by the express orders of the Hoard of Pub lic Works , us given from time to time by the chairman of said board. I believe that this claim , beforeIt Is rocoRiilzed as valid or entitled to payment , should be passed on by the proper court and the amount that the Barber Asphalt company is entitled to receive should be determined by n jury. The fact that no action whatever 1ms been taken to collect this claim or to have the amount due the Barber Asphalt company for street repairs In 1S31 determined by a court would Indicate that the contention of Mr. IJIrkhaiiser. the then chairman of tlio Hoard of Public Works , that the Har bor Asphalt company was not complying with Its contract nor with the orders of the Hoard of Public Works , was well founded. It Is a matter of common Ut-owl- cdge and general notoriety that durlnpr the year IS'Jl the asphalt streets of the city of Omaha were neglected and holes without number were allowed to exist. I als > o veto this Item for the- reason that the item In the appropriation ordinance , together with the resolution ordering It placed In the ordinance , are in the nature of a set tlement and a recognition of the validity of the claim of the Bar ber Asphalt company for the sum of lll.'JGO.CS , which , after crediting the amount proposed to be allowed In this or dinance , would leave due- the Harbor com pany an admitted balance of $12,000. I do not think the council or mayor should make any such recognition of this claim , and should not at this time commit the city to the payment of this entire claim as is proposed. The Item In the last appropriation ordi nance In favor of lho American Water Works company for $42,213.54 for hydrant rental during the first six months of the year was vetoed on the same grounds that the mayor cited In vetoing the bill for the previous six months. These were to the effect that the company was not furnishing sufficient fire protection. On this account the city was compulled to spend $15,000 annually for three 11 ro engines and the mayor recommended that this amount be deducted from the bill. Under suspension of the rules Jacobsen Introduced a resolution by which the city attorney was di rected to ascertain whether the water works company was living up to Its con tract , and If such wus not the case , to go Into court to compel It to cither do so or to forfeit Us contract. This halt seemed to work effectually. The resolution was adopted nnd the veto of the bill was not sustained. The resolution ordering an arc light at the Intersection of Forty-first and Page streets was votocd for the reason that there was no money available with which to pay for It. The comptroller's statement on Juno 12 showed n balance In the street lighting fund of $30,150.82. During the first live 'months of the year $23,050.4:1 : was expended for gas and gasollno lights during llvo months and are lights for two months. The bill for gas and gasoline during the remainder of the year would amount to $21,000 , leaving $9,000 with which to pay for arc lights. The coun cil had already passed over the mayor's ve toes bills of the Thomson-Houston company amounting to over $15,000 , and Including the bills for the Bin en remaining months there would be nn overdraft on the fund of over $2ICOO. The major said that ho did not BPO how tlio council could pass resolutions ordering add.tlonal lights In the face of these fat'ts. When appealed to for Information , Chair man Uurltley of the finance committee stated that the position of the mayor in ro- nard to the fund was substantially correct , but the resolution was nevertheless passed over the veto. Tha contract and bond of II , II , Mayo for repairing the Sixteenth street viaduct were approved. City Attorony Connell was granted a month's leave of absence In which to lure speckled trout from the mountain streams , The contract and bond of P. II. Mahoncy for grading on the southeast avenue were approved. Similar action was taken on the contract nnd bond of Haniann & McDonald for sewer construction In district Nn. 201 , The final estimate In favor of Samuel Kutz Co , for the South Fifth street grading was allowed and ordered placed on ( he next appropriation ordinance , The mayor's appointment of W. 0. Shrlver. John F. Flack and W. II , Gates as ppralfcrs on the contemplated grading of Thirty-fifth street from Half Howard to Luavcuworth Directs was confirmed , as was ilno the appointment of Ouorgo W , Holbrook , W. Q. Shrlvcr and It. II. Ball to appraise the damages accruing from the opening c n street alone Saddle creek. The request of lho Hoard of Hi alth fo an additional appropriation of $3,600 wa referred to n special committee conslstlm of Holmes , Bach and S nee lit. L , . M. Hhecm was granted a two week leave of absence. A request from the Hoard of County Com mlBsloncrs that the council appoint a com mlttec to confer with the board with a vlev to adjusting the dlsputo between the clt ; and the county on account of boarding clt ; prisoners was referred to the finance com mlttee and the city comptroller. The claim of It. H. Polk for Sl.OOO for In juries sustained by rcat-on of a dcfectlv sidewalk was referred , together with a aim liar claim from Mrs. Umina Frost. A resolution from Holmes that the la borers In the employ of the city bo paid 17V cents per hour after August 1 was referrei to the committee on judiciary. A number of resolutions ordering addt tlonal arc lights were referred to the com mlttco , with Instructions to Investigate as ti the condition of the fund and report on tin advisability of locating additional lights.

THEY WERE ADOPTED. The resolutions were adopted , Bruner alone voting In the negative. Howcll , Bechel and Lemly were named as the councllmanlc mem bers of the committee. The ordinances providing for clerks In the offices of the building Inspector and the Board of Public Works were not approved. The city attorney was Instructed to see what the Uurllngton and Union Pacific rail roads had done towards the construction of the iron and stone bridges on Fourteenth street ordered by the council a year ago and to push the construction of the bridges as rapidly as possible. The special committee appointed at the previous meeting to consider the charges preferred against Health Commissioner Savllle by n. D. Duncan reported that the power to remove the health commissioner was vested In the judges of the district court , and charges could only be preferred by the mayor. Mr. Duncan's communica tion was accordingly referred to the mayor. The Joint committee recommended that the petition of Pardee & Co. asking for the approval .of their bond be not granted , and In default of objections the recommenda tion was declared adopted without a vote. The recommendation was based on the pica that the company had filed no articles of Incorporation and had no legal existence.

SAYS THE COUNT WAS FALSE Certain Members of Scbool Board Acoasct of Election T.ioker/ , MACLEOD APPEALS FOR A PURE BALLO' I'rniKl In the Selection of IIli Sue censor Story of n llor c- Unit 1'lujcd u StuiI'urt In Sinn Muclcoil's Dcfi'ill , "Thcro nro some members of the schoc board who otiglit to bo wearing stripes. " M. 0. Macleod , a brotlicr of tlio rccentl bchcailctt superintendent of buildings of tli Hoard of Education , lias been whlspcrln tlio above quoted sentence Into the cars c Bomo of his political friends very Imlustrl ously for several days. IJnok of tlio state mcnt , or charge , is a story of tlio attempt of the Macleod brothon * to get the nmtto of tlio election of Samuel's successor rccon sldercd by the Hoard of Education. 0 course Sam Is not taking any chances on hi own account. Ho Is perfectly satisfied will the result , but his sympathetic brother ha tried to got Will Stevens , who was an appll cant for the position , to pull the Maclcoi chestnuts out of the flrc. Stevens has been told by Macleod tha there was Jugglery In the count at tin school board election at which Danker wai selected to succeed Macleod. Of course Mucleod was not In the light at all. Hi was a lo er from the start , but It grieves hln very much to see his friend Stevens lose tin place when he was fairly elected. This It what he tells Stevens. Macleod claims thai ho has the ballots that were taken by the board In the selection of a superintendent ol * buildings and that the ballpts show thai fraudulent work was done In the solcctlor of Hanker. Ho says that Hurgess and llandliatier were the tellers and that when the ballots were counted Bandhauer twisted them Into a buncli and threw them Into the waste basket. Macleod claims to have se cured the ballots and to have found the proofs that warrant him In making the re mark about the wearing apparel of certain members of the Hoard of Education. According to Macleod's story the ballots show that Stevens received eight votes on two different ballots , but that the votes were called wrong by the tellers and that Stevens was beaten out of the election. Mr. Stevens took little- stock In the report and nfter making a few Inquiries ho became convinced that the story originated In Mac- leod's desire to have the matter opened up by the board so he could have one more chance at n ro-elcctlon. Mr. Bandhauer was asked what he proposed to do about the charge which Macleod was making against him. "I propose to call him down , " said he. He went on to say that there could be no question about the accu racy of the ballot , as ho and Mr. Burgess had seen every ballot that was cast and there was no chance for any Juggling with the returns. "If I had wanted to toy with the returns , " said Mr. Bandhauer , "I would have torn up the ballots after each vote In stead of twisting them Into n knot and throwing them into the waste basket , where they could be found and arranged so easily. " When M. G. Macleod meets Tellers Bur gess and Bandhauer there will be a call for explanations. Hut the chances now arc that the election of a superintendent of buildings will be re considered by the Board of Education , but upon wholly different grounds from those raised by Macleod. The matter has been discussed by members of the board and while no definite action has been taken It Is generally understood that most of the mem bers of the board are not satisfied with their action in the selection of Mr. Banker and will In all probability reconsider the action at the next meeting of the board. The reference of the now superintendent's bond at the meeting Monday night Is taken as the first step , lnNtho'plan ' for , a reconsidera ' ' tion. If Banker's election Is reconsidered Mac leod will bo a candidate for re-election , but his case Is practically hopeless from the start. There Is too much to explain , or too much that cannot bo explained. It was an explanation that could not be furnished that defeated Macleod when Hanker was chosen. A statement was made to members of the board that Macleod had.been presented with a fine driving horse by ono of the contrac tors who was doing work fop the board. This was not denied by any one. Macleod said ho owned the buggy and the contractor owned the horse , and they had agreed upon a joint traffic arrangement by which both 'iad use of the horse and buggy. Both agreed , however , that the contractor seldom used the outfit , which was kept at a barn. In Macleod's name and used by him dally. The contractor also stated to friends that Ills house had told him to get Macleod a tiorse if he needed one. It was this story that prevented at least two members of the board from voting for Macleod and the condi tions have not chanced since the election at which his successor was named. But Macleod has more than one iron In the 3ro Just now. If ho cannot keep his hold in the school board pay roll ho hopes to get mother whack at the public purse In a posi tion as member of the Board of Public Works , lor which he is an applicant. Notwithstand- ng the horse story was known to every nember of the Board of Education , one of : ho leading members of that tidily has en- iorsed Mr. Maclood's application for the Board of Public Works appointment In the Ugliest terms. If Macleod falls In both his ilans ho threatens to go Into politics as a justness and "shako 'em up , " as his brother mys. When Traveling.
