HOW THE BILLS CAN BE PAID
City Attorney Points Out Fund On
Which Warrants Are to Be Drawn.
THESE ARE DEPLETED, HOWEVER
Bids for New Engine Itonae Are' He
reived, Ha ah re Being; the Low
BidderRight to Let Contract
la Questioned.
Although City Solicitor Kimball. In a
"further opinion" on the question, said
the preliminary expenses necessary to the
erection, or purchase of a water works
ystetn could be paid out of tha contingent
T emergency department of the general
fund, the city council failed at Its meeting
last night to solve the problem of where
the money to pay the expenses of tha spe
cial election on October 27 and other In
debtedness Incurred by the committee on
water works waa to coma from.
The additional opinion from tha city
solicitor on this matter follows:
I have been requested by you to giv
further opinion as to what division or
account of the general fund the preliminary
expenses necessary to the erection or pur
chase of a water works system should be
paid from.
In an opinion ' given on September 22 I
Indicated that these expersis as printing
of the booklets published ..y tne city and
the payment of the special engineer should
be paid out of the general fund. For con
venUnce the city has many years divided
the general fund oT the city Into several
other funds or accounts. These are not
fi nds having separate levies or which are
fixed by statute, but are so segregated In
view of the appropriation and various
sources of Income of the general fund of
the city.
There Is no authority for a salaries fund
and It Is In fact but an account of the
treasurer and auditor. So It Is with the
streets and alleys fund, fire department
"P. .n,ne"' department funds. After
all these accounts are set apart the bal
ance of the general fund is called the
contingent r emergency fund. The council
can transfer any purt of these subdivided
funds of the general fund, one to the
other and that part of the general fund
should be used for any authorised purpose
wllch is available. Thus the necessary
prlntlr-g should be paid out of the general
fur d and charged to printing and supplies.
1 h expense of the engineer for special
work should bo paid out of the engineer's
department fund or account. If the ap
propriations have all been used for any
particular purpose an Item mav be paid
out of the emergency fund, or its fun-Is
moy be. transferred to the division or
account needd. The expenditures should
not at tho time of drawing the warrant
however, exceed the anticipated revenue
for the fiscal year fir which thev are
drawn, and no warrant sliould be d-awn
beyond tlx- nppropritlons unless expremly
authorised by law. I understand that the
appropriations have not been exceeded is
yet In any department or account of the
general fund.
Bryan Bill Ordered Paid.
There waa no report from the finance
committee as to whether It Hi- a
any money lying around In the municipal
treasury which had not already been ap
propriated for the general running ex
ponses of the city government. Tho bill
of W. H. Bryan, the expert hydraulic en
gineer, amounting to about 1800, was or
dered paid, and under the city solicitor's
opinion It will have to be paid out of the
emergency 0r contingent fund If there is
etioun .money In this fund to pay It with.
Vlth the d-plotlon of the contingent fund
her. will bo nothing with which to pay
the city fuel bills for the winter.

VOTING MACHINES TO BE USED
Andltor of Polk Connty Overrate the
Objection That Have Been Raised
Aaralnat Them In the City
, of Iea Moines.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES. Oct. IS. (Special.) An
ugly situation In the municipal affairs of
Des Moines was disposed of by the city
council this morning and It will have a
tendency to umuotli out matters very
much for the future of the Galveston
plan of city government here. Alderman
Hamery, head of the department of pub
lic safety, presented to the council the
written resignation of Chief of Police
Hume and It was accepted by a Vote of
2 to 3. Mayor Mathls and Alderman Ash
voted against , acceptance. Hamery,
Schramm and MacVlcar voting for ac
ceptance. The resignation has, In fact,
been in the hands of Hamery .inca be
fore Hume was made chief. Hume's ap
pointment was made to carry out a politi
cal obligation due chiefly to Ash and at
the time Hamery rerused to acquiesce.
He only gave in when Hume filed with
him his resignation, to be filed whenever
Hamery saw fit to do so. There has been
constant friction In the department be
cause the chief and his superior have not
worked in harmony at all. Today Ham
ery filed the resignation. Hume's
friends fought hard to prevent action,
but it was taken. His successor has not
been named, but Hamery will name the
man. The strained situation has been a
threat against the success ot the new
plan at all times and the people of Dea
Moines now feel that better results will
be obtained.
Certain Voter Are Favored.
The voters of Des Moines and Polk
county will thla year be favored over all
others by having the right to vote with
the "circle voting," the use of voting
machines so constructed a. to permit vot
ing a straight party ticket with one
stroke of the lever. Objection has been
made to this form, but the county au
ditor has decided that when the legisla
ture took the circle off the ballot It did
not prevent voting a straight party ticket
where machines are used. Unless tha
courts Interfere the voters of this part
of the state will therefore be privileged
to vote a straight ticket by one stroke
of the hand, something which cannot be
t'.one elsewhere In the state. There has
also been complaint because of a fear
that the voting cannot be done on the
machines quickly enough to get through.

Dallas had another prairie fire scare late
thla evening, when a blase was started at
the edge of town by the careless throwing
of a lighted match In the grass. But for
an Indian, who rushed Into the flame with
a wet blanket and smothered It, the town
might have had a serious time.
Considering the fact that the town Is
"wide open" and full of strangers of all
classes, fairly good order Is maintained.
The government authorities are active and
are being assisted by local police. Excite
ment Is expected to reach Its height when
the drawings begin next Monday. The
total regisratlon will probably exceed 100,000
and many will remain to learn their fate.
