CITY COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS
Opinion! of City Attorney Will Craw
Council Into Court on Franchises.
VOTE OF PEOPLE REQUIRED
Only One Day After Governor Made
err Bill a Law Light Com
pany 9eenred Fran
chise. Declaring that In his opinion the Omaha
ft Council Bluffs Street Railway com
pany had no right under Its ordinance
to sell heat, light or power to private
customers, and that the Omaha Electric
Light and Power company has no fran
chise on account of the ordinance grant
ing It a franchise waa passed unlawfully,
Harry E. Burnam, city attorney, presented
two lengthy opinions to tha council Tuesday
evening which added fuel to the flames
and placed the council In a position where
It must go to court to establish the status
of the city In reference to the franchises.
Thla la tho atalement made by a council
member. The oplnlona were referred to
the committee of the whole without be
ing read.
Of the franchise held by the Omaha ft
Council Bluffs Street Railway company
the city attorney aays tn part:
I give It as rtiv opinion that the Omaha
ft Council Bluff Street Railway com
pany has no right or mithorlty to use or
occupy the streets of the city of Omaha
with condulta. poles or wires, except for
the purpose of maintaining and operating
auch street railway aa may have been
purchased, leased or acquired by aald
company, provided, oT course, that auch
street railroad by It so purchased, leased
or acquired, has been granted by the elec
tora of the city the right to use and oc
cupy auch streeta and for street railway
purposes.
It Is the opinion of this department that
the Omaha ft Council Bluffs Street rail
way company haa no right or authority
to occupy and use the streets of the city
of Omaha with condulta, poles and wires
for furnishing heat, light and power to
private consumers.
Ordinance " Faseed " Too" Late.
In giving his opinion ot the validity of
ordinance No. 41M passed March Is, 1907,
under which the Omaha Electrio Light and
Power company operates In this city, the
city attorney entera Into a long discus
sion of the caucus leading up to the pass
ing of the ordinance and calls attention
to the fact that It was passed one day
after the governor had signed a law pro
tecting cltlea of tha metroplltan class In
the granting of franchises which provldea
that franchises shall not be given but shall
bo votetd upon by tho people after the
aame shall have been published a cer
tain length of time. The franchise was
never voted upon, therefore the city at
torney holds it la Invalid, concluding his
opinion In this paragraph:
It la clear that the passage, of the or
dinance, insofar as it attempts to do any
of the things enumerated In aection 4
thereof, in no way met the requirements
I of section 19 of the t7 city charter which
Weill iiku cim.i U 1 1 1,1 1. 1 . I .u, jwi. 1 i. .ii.b
extent, at least, I am of the opinion Its
passage la a palpable violation of the pro
visions of section 19 of the 1897 city char
ter, aforesaid, and therefore null and void.
A third opinion submitted by the city
attorney as to the right the electrio light
company has to furnisn lights for the il
lumination of Btroct signs, he holds there la
no legal objection.
Nothing was said or done in reference
to the J. L. Brandeia & Bona subway under
Douglas street. Councilman Davis, who In
stigated the Investigation Into the subway
matter, aays he will have It brought up
In committee ot the whole next Monday
afternoon, . .
Tho city attorney also presented a fourth
communication In which he called attention
to Irregularities In an ordinance passed
at the last meeting of the council, calling
a special election to vote on the Issuance
of $60,000 park bonds. He drew up a new
. ordinance, which conforms to the law, and
this passed the first readings, as well as
another ordinance to repeal the one passed
last week.
An ordinance providing for the repavlng
of Douglas street from Ninth to Sixteenth
streets passed, and another, providing for
the appraisement of lands, making It possi
ble to open Thirty-fourth atreet from Pat
rick avenue to Blondo street, passed the
first two readings. The council also drdered
the appraisement of city property In tho
Orchard Hill district, near Military avenue,
comprising 1,123 square feet. t
John Fltzpatrlck, night watchman in the
city hall, who was discharged by Cus
todian Rowden without approval .of the
mayor and city council, presented a com
munication to the council asking for Re
instatement on the grounds that his dis
charge had not been approved and also,
because he was discharged so as to make
room for the employment ot the custodian's
son, and not for cause. The counclTacted
on the communication by approving the
discharge by the custodian of the city
building of Fltzpatrlck, Engineer Charles
Bradford and Janitor Frank Heynek, tho
engineer and Janitor having alao been dis
charged by Rowden without previous con
