DILEMMA OF CITY COUNCIL
Jloaey Promised the Board of Edu
cation in Vbont Hi Be De-
mnnded.
The Board of Education has presented to
the city couacfl for solution a little puzzle
in tie shape of a resolution in which a de
mand is made upon the city for the S13.000
it promised as the Saal payment far the
old Dodire street school building trans-
lormed into a city jail.
There la no question that the school board
is ia earnest in its demand as it needs the
money to traiW the grammar schools that
are to be erected tins summer. There is as
little donit that the demand can be enforced - I
forced , for the Board ef Education holds an j
agreement signed 'by ' the mayor , in. which
the city promises to pay the J15.000 out cf
this year's levy. If the < ciiyfniis to hand
over the money the 'board will ia all prob
ability commence suit ta enforce payment ,
although that plan hns not yet been dis
cussed.
The situation is feat another cne of the
embarrassing predicaments that the fiaance
committee slated far the council ia reporting
a tax levy inadequate to meet the liabilities
of the city. No prsrision whatever -was
made fcr the payment of the J13.000 aad
there is no emergency fund out of which
the money can be takea. It should properly
come oot of the general ifund. but that fund
is so smaH that it barely provides enough I
money for the Axed charges against it. i
Memters f the council who voted against i
tie levy refuse to have anything to do with
the solution of the problem and turn it over
to the anance committee aad other members
cf tie body who voted for the levy , holding
that the larter are responsible for the do3-
culty The matter will probably occupy a
good deal of attention at a near meeting of
tihe city council.

the members of the park board are
elated over their success ia sects-la ; pca-
st-s oa of the road fund money , the
majority of the members f the dry council
are rather despondent ever the situation.
The road fund ia the past has beea used for
all sorts of purposes , hut a goodly portion
of it has -been employed ia repairing dirt
streets and in paying the city's share of the
cost of grading streets. It is aot intended
to authorize much of the latter son of work
this year , hut citizens generally will all the
more keenly feel the loss of the fund. The
finance coznminee which drew up the low
tax levy set aside an entirely inadequate
amount of money for the purpose of cleanj j
Ins : and sweeping streets , with the understanding - j
standing that a gcod pardon of the road !
fond wonH be used for that purpose. Now
that the road fund is ant available , the city
will have to get along with dirty streets
this year , for the amount of money ap
propriated for inch , trork is admitted' be j
altogether too small.
Park Commissioner Coralsh Is happy over
the success of this MB. 'Bef of a3 ! the park
commissioners , took most ta heart the actjoa
of the council in levying so small an amount
for the park fund that the sum T as not
suacient to maintain the parks properly
and any idea that money could he spent on
boulevards was ridiculous. Ee cast about
for a remedy for the situation and finally
concocted a bill to secure possession of the
roud fund , maintaining that that fund would
be more properly and legally expended in
building and maintaining boulevards TVITI
in the ay the council has been spending ; tEe -
Ee was at Lincoln m the interests of the
bill most of the time it was pending in the
legislature.

IS CHARGED WITH PERJURY
Ia thr Trial of Wlllljun Dn < jnrtt It In
Claimed that J. H. Mi rtTood
The charge of perjury has beea placed
against J. E. Sherwood and he has been
bound ver to the district court by Jadce
Gordon. TTffliam Duqueta was the complain
ant. Sherwood having procured the arrest
of Duquett en the charge of burglary when
he swore that he saw him in a meat market
the night of February IS. Duouett was dis
charged , after which he proceeded to retali
ate by having Sherwood arrestfd for perjury
In the trial of Duquest. iherrood testi3ed
that he saw Bnqueti in TVallender's market
"stringing haTns by the tght of the moon
which rose over the Streets of Cairo. ' " In
his own trial he quallied this statement by
saying that if it was not the moon It was
a hcht in the tower of one of the buildings
on the "Streets of Cairo. " "iVhen questioned j
more closely he said this light which shon * |
on the face of the man in the meat shop j
might have beea a reflection on some glass j
135 feet away. !
It was shown , however , thai no tnoon was
shining on the aicht of the roibery , aad that
if it had been its rays would aot have been
visible at such an ancle tnst the face of a I
man would have been visible to an outsider |
It was also brought out that no light at all ,
had been kept in the tower on the "Streets j
of Cairo' since the close cf the erpositioa. i
The point that -was considered tie strangest
acainst Sherwood was that nhile he claimed ]
he recognized Duqnert at the time of tie |
robbery he went dowa to tie staaoa to see ,
if he could Identify another man as the ,
thief. Failing in this , when driven to it by ;
his employer , WaHender , he staled that j
Dun.ue.tt was the robber

There is every Indlcatina that the ad-
jocraed meeting of the Board of County
Commissioners today will contain more
gingery elements than have been apparent
for some time. There are two matters
scheduled for consideration , each of which
promises to raise a sharp issue between the
majority and minority factions and specula
tions are not lacking that there is pcs-
siibility of a split in the majority as well.
The request of County Attorney Shields
for the appointment of Lee Helsley as as
sistant in police court and that of W. H.
Guasolus as court messenger and special
detective was referred to the committee of
the whole a week ago. and it will probably
be considered in erecutive session. This has
been hanciac Sre for several weeks , and it
IB intimated that the delay Ti" been caused
by a doubt -whether the three fusion mem
bers can be depended en ta stand pat. It
is quite definitely understood that one of
th n ] * - " positive ooovictSons that these ad-
dtacnal encumbrances on the salary list are
aot aesesaary and his colleagues have
recognized the uselessness of trjqnr to force
the scheme throuch unless they are solidly
in to1 favor Court house poseip is to the
effect that Gunsolus IB "out of it , " and it
is considered doubtful whether the county
attomev will be able to secure even the
appointment of Helsley.
The majority has another nght proposi
tion on its hands 'in the petltioa that has
beea Sled by a number of the fusion leaders
in which it is insisted that special counsel
shall be employed at the ezpense of the
couaty to probecute the mandamus proceed
ings by which E. J- Dee sipects to be able
to break into the position in the county
clerk's offlce to which he was recently ap
pointed by the board. While the peuuon
urzes this course in order "to establish the
right of the board ta make appomtmen-s in
the clerk's oSce , * on the score of public
necessity , this is generally recogniipd as a
thinly covered scheme to serve the interests
of an individual at the public ezpense
Since the petition was Sled tne action ! ia :
U contemplated has been so roundly de
nounced that the commissioners are re
luctant to assume the reEpon&bUny of
carrying- into effect. On the other hand , a
lot of their moet active pol.ucal supporters
insist that Dee shall be taken care of , and
the commisEloners are hesitating to dis-
eharjre a weapon that i evidently loaded at
both ends.
To add to the preplexities of the fusion
members is tie menace that Governor
Poynter will sign the bill * hich jjrcv.des
that the couaty ooainuRfiioners shall be
elected at large instead of by suffrage of the
particular cammissicner districts that they
represent- The fugJoniBts aabert that the
effect of the law will tie to maiie it im-
pogesibl < to elect anyone but a republican.
and they are preparing to brlac all
presHure Hi bear on tie governor to induce
him ta veto the bill. Commissioners Con-
aoUy and Erfeldt went * o Lincoln yes
terday to labor with the povemnr on thi
matter , but they wffl protmblv r-tam la
tome ta paruripute ia the "aiis-ap" to
day.
