worst sea I ever went through." was the
response received by the plain clothes men.
The detectives went Into the building

was taken to the city jail and cared for by

County .Treasurer Examiners Robinson
nnd Tullis were In Omaha Thursday night
enroute to Lincoln from Sarpy county,
where they bad been to cask up the ac
counts of the county treasurer, which they
found to be all right. Mr. Robinson en
deavored to get to Omaha In time to talk
to the county commissioners about his Idea
of cutting down the expenses of county
government, but he was too late. Mr. Rob
inson would do away with nearly all of the
road supervisors and have Just three or
four to be paid a salary which would
justify them in looking after the roads the
year around.
or tell of any deal In which he was Inter
ested by which the treasury was to be
looted."
"It cornes with poor grace for a man like
Tom Blackburn to charge the majority of
the council was looting the treasury, or that
It was mixed up In fraudulent deals," snld
Huntington "I have gone along without
saying anything when the majority of ihe
council has been sttacked, but now the
tlmo Is here when some of these charges
should be proven. I am glad this suit has
been filed so the entire transaction with
the gas ordinance can be brought to light.
I want the people to know Just what the
majority did, and what the minority, the
paragon of honesty and virtue, did. I want
the records to ne snown up."
Digs lu Hoye's Ordinance.
And then Mr. Huntington dug down in
the records of the city clerk's office and
produced the gas contract and a previous
gas ordinance Introduced by Hoye whlrh
was not passed.
"This Hoye ordinance. Is practically the
same thing as the ordinance which was
passed. While It was pending the gas com
pany made the reduction which the people
demanded and the present contract, there
fore, is the mme thing as that Hoye con
tract." Then the councilman pointed to the
names of the men on the committee who
had recommended It for passage. The
names were P. J. O'Brien and H. B. Zim
man. "These men took particular pains to call
attention to the fact that the ordinance
was Introduced by Hoye. This was done
merely to help Hoye In his race for sheriff.
Zlmman and O'Brien are now violently
opposed to the gas contract, which Is the
same thing as the one they recommended
the council to adopt."
