24 TIIK OMAHA DAILY BEE: SUNDAY, APRIL 27, 1002. i ONE BENEFIT FROM STORM i Aocident to Tonner Mayor Bring Up i Billboard Question. OFFICIALS UNCOVER AN OLD ORDINANCE i It tleqnlres for Sahataatlal Cnnstrar Hoa of Billboards aad Provides for Collection of Special Tai oa Tbfm. I The breaking of ex-Mayor Bemls' leg Friday evening, while something of a hard chip upon Mr. Pom In, has resulted In good to the Omaha public. The connection be tween ex-Mayor Bemls' splintered femur nd hii benefaction la this: Mayor Moorea, a representative of ta claims department of the city, Building Inspertor Carter and City Clerk Elbourn made some Inquiries bout the matter yesterday and found that the accident was the result of a Ions billboard blowing down upon Mr. Bern La and ; crushing blm to the pavement. "We ought to have an ordinance requir ing the Inspection of billboards the same as buildings," said the mayor, "so that all rickety boards could be condemned and removed." "I believe we already have such an ordi nance," said the city clerk. The quartet put their heads together over a bound volume of the city ordinances, and the result was that a law which has lain dormant on the books for more than a year was dug up. This law, beside providing for the substantial construction and thor ough bracing of billboard, specifies a cer tain system of fees which shall be col lected by the building Inspector, and makes It Incumbent upon all persons erecting such signs to submit plans to the building In spector for hla approval. For a sign less than 8x10 feet In size a fee of $25 per year Is charged, for a sign less than 12x15 fee', a fee of $50 per year Is charged and for a aign less than 12x20 feet a fee of $100 per jear Is charged. This ordinance has not been enforced be cause Mr. Carter didn't know of Its ex istence, and the chances are he would never have known of Its existence had not ex Mayor Bemls called attention to It by thoughtfully having his leg broken. Mr. Carter at once wrote letters to the "M. E. MulvlhlU company and several other blllpostlng firms, notifying them that here after tho ordinance would be enforced to the letter. Ex-Mayor Bemls may sue the city for damages as the result of having bia leg broken, but the fees for six months will more than pay the Judgment. Another "pedal Train.
