ositions taken by the defense more than
two years ago, and which have been In

Kelley had been Indicted and had gone to
Canada from New York. These depositions

saying that he did so almply to have a
bill there In caae the houae bill failed to
pass the house. He denied ever being ap
proached either by Lee or Farrls with a
proposition relative to the bill.
MAYOR MOORES IS UNDECIDED
Chief Executive Mar or May Not Slgra
Re.olotlon of Tax,
Lovy. .
Mayor Moores is undecided whether to
sign the levy resolution adopted by the
'council or not, not because he thinks the
amounta demanded are too high, but he
doubts whether the law requires him to
affix his signature. The new charter
directs that the levy be certified to by
the council,' leaving the mayor, who used
to have somethJTig to say about It, entirely
out of the game. Nevertheless by way of
courtesy to the chief executive the resolu
tion waa prepared In concurrent form, that
Is, requiring the signature of the mayor.
It he does not sign or veto It becomes
operative after three days. Mayor Moores
is wondering what la the use of wasting
the time, the Ink and the friction on th
pen, In view of the wording of the law.
: "I have- no fight with th amount or
dered," said the mayor. "In all probability
they are needed to run the city properly.
A big town like Omaha, spread out over
much territory, cannot be governed on
theory alone."
Assistant City Attorney Herdman is busy
pointing out that the big levy means a step
toward the gradual payment of the city's
bonded debt and a getting Into the proper
attitude regarding the outstanding and con
stantly maturing obligations. He asserts
further that Omaha taxes are lower than
those of St. Paul, Des Molne, Denver.
Sioux City, Kansas City and other big
western .towns. '
