and Mrs. Allie Hewitt, the venerable
widow OF the late Girart Hewitt, and
her son. James p. Hewitt, would give
more. The Jewels were stolen from

room 210 Germania Life building:
they were stolen about the latter part
of last week, but under what circum-
stances only the police and others
closely inter osted know. The extent
of the loss sustained is not exactly
known. Mrs. Hewitt, acting under the
instructions OF the police, refuses to
say anything about the matter, and
Mr.. Hewitt is equally reticent. Alto
gether there is a great deal Of mys-
terry about the affair. The jewels
taken were worth between $1,000 and
5000.

the Salary Ordinance and How \
the Aldermen Voted.

The city council held a brief, pleasant
but spicy session last night, all the alder
men and Mayor Ketcham being present.
The new auditor, VIM. Rae, was also in
the clerks chair.
The first business of the council was
to approve the bonds Of the new auditor,
chief Of police, street commissioner and
health officer, which was done in due
form. A bill or I'VE was allowed. @. NJ.

age of an ordinance regulating and fix
ing salaries Of city officers.
The council was unanimous in leaving
the salary of the mayor at what it was,
SIS per annum. The t%reasurer's annual
salary was treated likewise at 500, and
the auditors salary was cut from $3.50
to S175 without a dissenting vote. A
little discussion:arose over cutting the
city attorneys pay from $3.50 to $500, but
the latter figure was carried without The
necessity Of a roll call.
A proposition to cut The alder
manic stipend from s25 per annum to s24
was not kindly received and it was unan-
imously agreed to leave it at the old
figure.
On the rating Of the health officer the
fun begun and from this time, for future
reference, it may be we'll to make a re-
cord of the votes which followed.
1t was argued that the duties OF the
Office had not been attended to in the
past, and that $25 was salary enough to
waste upon the office. A motion was
made to this effect. An amendment was
offered TO make the salary SIS and q roll
call to adopt the amendment showed,
ayes, Dempster, Kundert, Larkin, Irish;
noes, Farley, Vedder. Waskey, Schmidt.
Lost.
Recurring on the original motion at
$25, the vote to adopt was, ayes, Farley,
Vedder, Waskey, Schmidt; noes, Demp-
ster, Kundert, Larkin, Irish. Lost.
This brought the matter up standing,
and the uselessness of the office was
again interjected. Alderman Dempster
then moved that the salary be fixed at
$l0O, payment contingent on reasonable
execution of the duties of the office. The
vote on this was, ayes, sDempster, Kun
dert, Larkin, Irish; noes, Farley, Vedder,
Waskey, Schmidt. A tie which the
mayor settled by voting aye.
The next tussel was on the salary of
chief Of police and here is where certain
sldermen made a very decided flop from
the economical turn of mind which con-
strained them to vote for the city's in
terests heretofore. Alderman Larkin
and some others claimed that the chief
Of police was paid a salary out OF al! pro-
portion to salaries in other lines of bust
ness or to other laborers wages as com.
pared with either skilled or unskllled
labor. Besides the chief of police re-
celved fees to the amount of ten to fifteen
dollars q month in addition to his go a
month salary. The opponents of reduc.
ton in this Office claimed it was night
work and sometimes days work to per-
form the duties Of the Office, that he was
The Madison daily leader. [volume] (Madison, S.D.) 1890-current, 1895-05-17

not overpaid, and that his additional
fees did not amount to so per month or
anything like it. A motion was finally
made to Tx the salary at $50 per month.
This was amended to make it $50. On
the amendment the vote stood; ayes,
Dempster. Vedder, Waskey, Schmidt;
noes, Farley, Kundert, Larkin, Irish.
A tie which the mayor settled 10y voting
no. Another amendment placing
the salary $50 per month. On this the
vote stood; ayes, Farley, Dempster, We'd
der, Waskey, Schmidt; noes, Kundert,
Larkin, Irish. Carried.
Alderman Larkin then got even with
his opponents by instantly moving that
the superintendent of waterworks salary
be raised to $50, also. The lncongruity
of the situation was apparent but the
opposition was cornered and 80 all had
to vote "aye" on the proposition, which
they did.
The city surveyors per diem was fixed
at 800 for actual work.
Street commissioner, $3.50 per day.
Council then adjourned, sine die.
