Commissioner Butler Declares
City Should Act Before
"Outside Interference"
Is Used.
City Commissioner Butler, in reg
ular meeting of the city council yes
terday, insisted that Chief of Police
Eberstein should be granted a hear
say "us
ing before his resignation is asked
for.
A resolution by Mr. Butler was re
ferred to the council committee of
the whole meeting next Monday
morning, . after it had precipitated
discussion among the Xrity commis
sioner!. . v
In defense of his resolution, Com
missioner Butler asserted that the
counci, should take hold of the po
lice department situation before
"outside interference" was used.
Hii reference to "outside interfer
ence" was understood to mean the
threatened action of Governor Mc
Kelvie. who told the city commis
sioners that unless they acted he
would exercise his prerogative, and
the governor also indicated that the
removal of Chief Eberstein was es
sential to the reorganization of the
Omaha police department.
Mr. Butler also inquired why Wil-

If it's Oakford talk it must be a plain one, for this a
straight-from-the-shoulder house.
We want to put a plain question to you today.
Why' don't you settle that much mooted question in
your family by buying a Piano NOW?
Talking about it won't put it into your home ; will
not stop the importunities of the young folks.
Let us guess why you are procrastinating.
You want a Piano; you feel the need of it but you
can't Bpare the money to pay cash just now, and you
think you can save money by waiting until you can spare
it. And you wait and wait.
You are wrong. No man, no matter what his sta
tion in life, can buy a Piano in our store for less money
by paying cash down than the man who takes advantage
of our little-a-month plan, with interest at 6 per cent per
annum. ,
Every Piano on our floors is marked at the spot
cash price. If you want to borrow the money to pay for
it we will lend it to you at 6 per cent a year on the unpaid
balance. Cash or time, the price is the same.
We will sell you any Piano you may select at the
spot cash price and give you 20 to 30 months to pay
for it in. '
Suppose you tried to save the money to pay cash.
Could you do it? Would you do it?
The chances are NO, and in the end you would be
without a Piano.
Think it over. Buy a Piano today. Get acquainted
with the Oakford way of selling Pianos and the standard
lines handled by the Oakford house.
Let us talk with you.

Ham Coutler, policeman, had been
suspended for alleged cowardice on
Sunday, September 28, at the court
house, while other policemtn whom
he said had surrendered their badges
and revolvers, were still on duty.
"I offer this resolution," said Mr,
Butler, "because we could get a bet
ter idea as to what is going on in
the reorganization of the police de
partment I, for one, don't Intend
to sit by and see 100 new men ex
amined and not have anything to
say as to their qualifications,
I take it, that unless this coun
cil acts, the matter will be taken
cut of our hands. I think that the
council should handle the situation
without outside interference.
"Mr. Ringer has suspended an of
fices who has been oh the force 18
years, and there are policemen who
turned over their badges and re
volvers at the court house still on
duty. All of the policemen who
surrendered their badges and revolv
ers should be suspended.
"In fairness to Chief Eberstein, I
wish to state that he should have a
hearing. I don't intend to sit here
and see this thing die out. If this
hearing is not granted, as asked for
in my resolution, I intend to pffer
another resolution, asking for the
resignation of the chief."
Police Commissioner Ringer re
plied: "It, is within the province
of this city government to investi
gate all matters of the departments.
The grand jury investigation now
is on and I believe we should give
this matter a little more time. We
hear many rumors and it behooves
u- to be calm and judicial, that we
may arrive at a constructive rather
than a destructive conclusion. We
should wait fof the grand jury In
vestigation. Charges Against Coulter.
"As for the charges against Wil
liam Coulter, I will say that they
arc based on more than hearsay
evidence. I will be glad to inform
the xouncil as to the facts of that
case. I will be just as strong for
disciplining guilty policemen, as Mr.
Butler or any other city eommis.
sioner. I think that Chief Eberstein
is entitled to as much consideration
as anyone, charged with a crime."
Commissioner Butler responded to
the tolce commissioner: "The
mayor won't be back for several
months I contend that you are
not strengthening the morale of
your department by allowing men
who surrendered their badges and
revolvers to remain on duty. The
mayor's letter, in which he com
mended every member of 'he depart
ment for their work at the court
house, is ridiculous. I don't believe
that the mayor knows what hap
pened at the court house. I don't
believe that he understands the sit
uation," Must Have Charges.
Acting Mayor Ure remarked: "I
don't se! how you can have a hear
ing without charges being drawn. I
think il would be a delightful thing
tor each city commissioner to know
who are being appointed to the po
lice department."
Commissioner Butler offered this
rejoinder:
"Members of the police depart
ment are never brought in here ex
cept when charges are filed against
them. Promotions and demotions
are made without any information
