the courts, but have been defeated and
will continue the fight in the su
preme court. In committee we have ,
decided against the payment of fees
of 25 cents each for the recording of
births and deaths to Dr. Connell. He
fore the annexation of South Omaha
these fees totalled about $1,200 annu- j
ally. They now amount to $2,000 to
$2,200 in addition to the salary paid j
by the city to the city physician. '
Decisions have been handed down I
in district court by Judge Lee Estelle
and Judge Kennedy in favor of Dr.
Connell. '
