16 TIIE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 8. 1006. MAYOR FIGHTS FOR TOM LEE Ptblman, Overridden by Council, JesUts . Itt Appoints for City Frottcator. AYS H WILL CARRY CASE TO COURTS Daniel ProcMti to .oallfr, Chief F.seeatlve KetlSee Pallce Jde and Office to Btel Present Ineambeat. Aa a sequel to the election of H. 8. t)anlel to the city proeecutorshlp by tho city council at a special meeting Thurs day afternoon Mayor Dahlman called at polio headquarters Friday morning and informed the police Judtre and police of ficials that only Tom Lee, present city prosecutor, should be recognised aa hold ing the office In question. All of which ha stired up something of a hornet's nest In local politics. "I certainly shall resist the election of Mr. Daniel by the city council Thursday afternoon," eaid Mayor Dahlman. "It Is possible I am wrong In this matter, but I Intend to .stand for what 1 bellere my rights and let the mstter be determined by the courts if necessary." It Is the contention of the mayor that In view of no appointment saving been re ceived from his office by the council Tues day evening the council had a tight and tliould have proceeded to elect a city prosecutor, but falling to take advantage of that right the appointment continued to rest with tho mayor, he contended. - Lee Insists on SlajInK. The mayor feels confident he will win out In his ngbt agaluat. the action of the souncil Thursday afternoon. And In the meantime Lee Is holding-down the office by the grace of the mayor and possession of the office, lie says he Intended to act as city prosecutor, until the courts declared he must leave, as he maintains the election of Mr, Daniel was not legal. There Is much difference of opinion re garding the logwl status of the case and present Indications are that it will take a judge to declare who will be city prosecu tor. City Attorney Burnam la pf the opinion that the council could not have taken any ictlon Tuesday evening, as an appointment from the mayor might have been received any minute up to adjournment. There la ao question In the mind of Mr. Burns m that the election of Mr. Daniel Thursday afternoon was quite in order and will hold good, according to the provisions of the city charter, which say that the mayor shall submit a name each regular meeting and In the event of his failure to do so the council Is empowered to fill the office by tlectlon. Coanell's Views of It. W. J. Connell, who was questioned on the subject, said several legal points were Involved In the matter. "If, as some contend, both mayor and council allowed the appointment to go by gefault last Tuesday evening, then Mr. Lee will continue In office as a holdover"," said Mr. Connell. Mr. Connell is Inclined, howeverr- to the opinion that the council proceeded Irreg ularly Thursday afternoon by not consid ering the mayor's appointment which was before them and In the hands of the city clerk. He thinks It should have taken some ' cognizance of that appointment, which contained the name of Louis J. Pistil. Mr. Connell did not think the coun cil could properly have made an election Tuesday, night and also thought the spe cial meeting out of order Inasmuch as the mayor's appointment waa In the bands of the olty clerk before- that meeting was called, to order. . 1 Herbert 8. Daniel said Friday morning he would proceed to file his bond and qual ify In the usual manner and meet develop ments as they arise. jur. uanieia uonu win om ueiore ma cuun cll for approval 'Tuesday evening at the regular meeting." At the same meeting; the mayor will present to the council another appointment for the office of city prose cutor. In the event of Mr. Lee refusing to sur render the office to Mr. Daniel on demand, the latter will, ltis reported, Institute quo warranto proceedings in the district court. advantsge of the absence of the regular clerk from behind the desk, received the package and appropriated the contents. All the bell boys at the time of the oc eurrence remained on duty for their full time and the absence of the two boys In question was not noticed until It cams time for them to report again. The Oe tectlves are now hard at work on the case. JAIL TO MAKEMAN LOVE WIFE Thirty Pay Olvea Torn Fleteaer as Meaas of Aroaslasr Marital Affectloa. Tom Fletcher, 1311 Davenport street, had several different varieties of hard luck In police court Friday morning. But the num ber of hi residence, 1311, was enough to cause him some trouble. However, If he hsd only remained there Instead of going to see his wife where she works In a house on Ninth street " he might have escaped falling Into the hands of the po lice. Thursday night he went to see his wife and Informed her that If she did not produce about $230 which he knew was In her possession he would proceed to change the map of her face. A fight ensued and Mrs. Fletcher Jumped out of a second story window In order to escspe the' wrath of her better half.
