Finally M, Picket moved that the repor
of Tie Committee on Court House and Jai
be rejected, and that the committee be- dis
charged from all consideration of this re
moval matter
Mr.. Boring jumped sp and made hal
column speech, being seeuently interrupteS
by Mr.. Picket, who earnestly desired te

with the choir.
Mr.. Maxwell wanted the whole thing re-
ftrred 30 the next meeting of the Eoard.
Mr.. Petersen made the point that it was
supplementary for the Board to re.
fer the report of one committee to snothe.
committee. The Committee on Court
House and Jail was delegated 10 do GER
tain thing; it had done it and had reported
to the Board.
The talk ran along in characteristic Board
OF Commissioners style until finally Mr.. Del.
brugge renewed his motion to appoint
the FIVE members hereinbefore named.
he wanted to know, if the members of the
old committee were to serve on the new,
why in the world they wanted new COM

Ccpt Prince for Chairman. Mess-s. Stoker,
Woods, Maxwell, Boring were then named,
but all declined. Finally Mr.. Stein was
named and consented to serve.
Mr.. DelbruQge suggested that the Board

childish. No one disputed this, but the
"dilly-dallying" as Mr.. Boring put it, pro
ceeded.
MI. Peterson boldly charged certain
me nbers as being in conspiracy to kill of
the matter, and hence he was DESTROYS Of
having the issue mel at once. If members
OF the Board did not approve the report let
them come out boldly and ike men and
vote the report down. He despised
manipulation and was surprised at the
course pursued. Especially was be sur

THE CITY MEMBERS,
who, although they knew their constituents
favored the change, were still to be found
attempting 10 thwars the will Of the voters.
Messrs. Maxwell and Nichols were the only
consistent ones among thoce who oppocc1
the change.
Mr.. Woods thought the charge of fllibus
teripg came with very bad grace from NJ!
Peterson. He read the reports of the Com.
mittee on Court House and Jail, and said
they meant simply nothing at all. TIE
committee had wasted as much time as it
could and had been inconsistent through.

The moot forcible manner, and he and Mr.
Woods wrsnglcd together fo- some time,

charge Of underhanded work on the part of
tbe board, and grew somewhat warm during
bis speech. He moved the report of the
committee, so fer as it related to the Court
House and Jail, be deferred until the next
meeting. This was agreed to, and the row
ended.
