LEGAL STATUS OF, THE;PASE
City Attorney Coaaell Talks of Voa

Litigation.
I
City Attorney Contell las I. Bigot'" mad
th following statement:
"Th possession obtained by th newly
appointed governor' board. Is tn th . na
ture of forcible possession and In no man
ner change th legal right of th member
of th contending boards. " There wa no
consent or refusal on th part of th old
board to turn over the offlc to th gov
ernor' appointees. At ' a meeting of th
board la th afternoon before tt wa known
who had been appointed, a resolution wa
adopted authorizing and directing the city
ottorney to take such, actios js be might
deem proper and necessary' to 'protect the
member of tbe old board In their ' right
to the office held by them. Within half
n hour after th action ao taken and ad
journment of th board th governor' ap
pointee entered th offlc while It wa la
leave. . Tha mavor. accomoaalnfl bV th city
attorney thereupon entered, the offlc for
th purpose of ascertaining th situation
and was Informed by Mr. Wright and Mr.
Broatch that they, together with Mr.
Thomas and Mr. Bpratlen bad been ap
pointed member of tb board by th gov
ernor and submitted to th mayor . their
commission for bis inspection. The mayor
responded b had no doubit that the com
miaslons were signed by th governor, but
he could not recognise thetn as member
( tb board. Mr. Wright then mad on
motion, which th mayor refused to enter
tain or consider. Th mayor stated that
he could not act with them aod would
therefor retire. , .
It waa suggested by me a I entered th
offlc that th member of tha old board
be called together by the mayor at early as
10 o'clock tomorrow morning for the pur
poev of considering th demand of th
member of th new board, and either con
sent or refuse to comply whh tb same.
This waa not satisfactory to Mr.' Wright,
who acted aa spokesman for the members
of th new board, to which I .replied that
tb possession taken would1 then' b consid
ered a forcible poeseeslchV-," ,
"Soon after the mayor had retired h
had an lntervlar, a I am Informed, with
Governor Savage at the Millard . hotel aod
was" told In substance by th governor
than ba proposed to seat th members ap
pointed by him if It took the entire mil

alty for extreme actlod, aa he a not On

peace. Mayor Moore may not b an angel,
but he certainly l no a black aa a i
somstime painted. No on who, knows hi
army record will question hla iearleianea,
but ia thi matter I think he acted moat
wisely and discreetly. It would have been
a great injury to Omaha to have It reported
throughout tb country that there waa a
conflict between th. mayor .and nolle on
on eid and the governor and mUltla on
the other. If there is any one thing more
than another that demonstraUs the cor
rectness of local self-government sad th
Justice of the original decision of th su
preme court In favor of home rule It 1 tbe
secret and arbitrary and proposed vloleut
manner of the governor tn seating bis own
appointees for the "purpose of controlling
the police and fire department of the city
of Omaha. . - . -"Is
regard to the action of t old board
contesting the right of th member ef
th new board proceeding la g peaeeabi
and orderly way will b taken la tbe court
to vindicate and establish their eoateation.
Thi will be done by an action. In th
nature 'of quo warranto.' I have ao doubt
about the ultimate outcome of auch an
action It law and Justice are to prevail.
The queatlons which will be raised In tha
proposed action are not In aa? iu6ar
covered or determined by the recent de
cision of the supreme court lu th caae of
Wright against Eavage. lu Ifct..t& deol
alon tn this caae clearly recognizee tb
right of at least one member of the old
board to hold his fSo and la express
terms declares tht th Judgment in tba
Moores case la rea adjudlcai ao far aa the
rights of th members of ths eld board are
concerned for the term to which they bad
been appointed. CcuiiBtiisluuer Kennedy,
who waa one of the defendants In the Ken
nedy case, obtained a Judgment In his favor
for th term which he Is siiii occupying.
His term of office, wtjih waa In eootre
veray before the supreme court. Will not
eiplr until April. 1S2J. Notwithstanding
this fact aud botwHbatanding ths exprs.s
declaration of the auprem eourt la his
favor Governor Savage has appointed an
other peraoa to take hla plao before his
term eipirsa and then declared In subatanc
that h would remove Kennedy sad seat
his own sppotnte though the streets of
Omaha ahould be deluged with blood.
"Ia ths proposed action of quo warranto
i eltfrll rely largely on tba Judgment rend
ered by the auprem eourt in the Kennedy
caaa, which Judgment was In favor of Mr.
Kennedy and th other members sppoluted
by the mayor and council, sustalmug their
plea tbfet ih Judgment 1 ths orlgtual
Moores ce Waa rea adjudlcta. It at tins
tn me that it Is now merely a question
abetter (he changed Vltes cf the Judges
of the supreme court kre to prevail or
whether tbe solemn Judgment f that Court
hall control.
"Th great barrier aad preventive of an
archy la this cw.ijt are th
Judgments of ur courts and th
respect of th. people for uch .Judg
ment. If courts ran break away from
their own Judgment and overturn them
merely beefcua the Judges have changed
their views regarding the law on which tuch
Judgment were baaed wbst ran w expert
from the common people? The result will
be In a little time tbat Judgment of eourt
will have a more consideration or respect
than edicts Issued from street .corner.
"For the present without regard to their
legal right so to do, the member of tb
txMrd appointed by th governor will have
control of the fire and police department.
Th governor's board being tn possession
and assuming to act will bo th board d
facto. As such It will be tbe duty of the
chief Of police, the chief of the fire de
partment and th men of these depart
ment to obey tb order of the governor'
board. The mayor, however, whe 1 by
law ex-offlcl chairman of the board, will
hot act with or In any way recognlx the
governor' board."

At the request of Walte, Thorburn at Com

against th Bank of Montreal, restraining
It officer from paying over margin to as

There Is a remarkable difference In the
