P.Bforctaar- Occupation Tax.
Unless the proprietors of grain tind stock
commission houses pay their occupation
taxes by Tuesday morning at lo o'clock,
arrests by wholesale will follow. That
was the decision reached, this 'morning at
a conference between City Clerk Pratt,
City Attorney Strode Hnd Deputy Attorney
Flaherty. The occupation tax of $50 nnd
the llrene of 2R were due last June. Not
one of the commission men has pwld either
fee demanded by the city.
Mayor Dahlinan, speaking of the charges,
said :
"Tes, I am ex-ufflcio member of the
board, but I think I hold my office by
grace of the votes of the people of Omaha
and I don't think the governor can fire
me If he wants to. However, if he wants
another cx-ofnelo inemb-r he can appoint
him, as I understand I get no pay for
attending these meetings.
"I am also of the opinion I was elected
to the office of mayor, which carries with
It a membership on the Board of Fire and
Police Commissioners, on a liberal ticket,
with a platform of the most liberal kind.
I waa not aware of any promises made
before election to tloae this town up any
tighter than It Is. It seems to me it Is
ptetty goo-J now."
"They want to gt rid of Chief Donahue
to have a chief of their own." said Dr.
George L,. Miller, a member of the Board
of Fire and Police Commissioners. "I have
been expecting some move 'of this kind
for some lime, but they' will nof get Tld
of Chief Donahue by . buy, surta .methods,
for I firmly believe he Is on of the best
officers In America. The: governor was
here laat week and, met with the - linn: d. j
He asked to have a clause Insert! In lb
1ir'nB nnvl var wlilnh wmt'il n -ovid"
that" If the statute wa, ' l,.ed ire Ivird j
could revoke the llcenso at any tlm. We
had not had time to look up the mutter
and the governor assured us such a
clause would be perfectly legal. When
the meeting was over I went to the city
attorney and he Immediately told me that
such a thing waa Impossible. Other promi
nent attorneys told me It was ridiculous.
I wrote to the chief that such was the
case.
"It Is the old fight over again. . The
federation has sert Thomaa to Lincoln
with a vlw to show an atfeni'U to do a
j tnlng contrary to law. The Issue must
j be mHt. An election is coming on. H
may attempt to remove the board mem
bers If they fall to enforce , the Sunday
law.
"The people of Omaha gave their ver
dict against Sunday closing last spring
when they put James .C. Dahlman In the
may6r'a chair. When I went to the polls
In my ward and saw many good church
people out working for Dahlman and an
open Sunday I made up my mind the peo
ple of this city did not want the sa
loona closed on Sunday.
