OPINIONS ARE DIVERSIFIED
On the Powers of the Police Com
mittee of the City
Council,
Especial to Inter Mountain.)

Especial to Inter MOuntain)
Anaconda, Oct. 9.-Ever since the
lively time was had in the city council
night before last in which several alder
men tried their skill at puglism, va
rious opinions have been expressed as to
the right and wrong of the subject
which was up for discussion that of re-
ferring the charges made against Pa
trolman Gordon, suspended by Chief
Taylor for grating, to the police COM
mittee.
Mayor Stephens, City Attorney Saw
yer and Alderman Williams, insisted
that under rule 80 of the book Of rules
of the city council, under which that
body was working, it was absolutely
necessary If the laws were lived up to,
to refer cases of this nature, first to the
police committee, which on an appointed
date, would sit as a court of inquiry,
subpoena and hear the testimony of
witnesses and at the first meeting of the
council thereafter submit their findings
in the shape of report which the coun-
Gil could then as body, either reject or
accept.
Mayor Stephens and his supporters
did not deny that the council could act
upon the question involved without go
ing through the process of a committee
a course was pursued it was necessary
to suspend the rules and that required
two-thirds vote of the members
elected.
This was the stand taken by City At
torney Sawyer, and he informed the
members of the council that if they fol-
lowed any other course their actions
would be illegal and would not stand in
any court of law.
1t was on this point that Alderman
O'Leary took issue with those in opposi-
ton to him. He declared that it was
not necessary for matters of this kind
to go to committee, but insisted that
it was entirely a matter for the council
as a body to dispose of. That witnesses
could be heard before all members of
the council and that no rules would be
broken in so doing.
Several attorneys questioned regard
ing the matter gave diversified opinions,
some contending that the city attorney
had advised the mayor correctly on the
question, others contending that while it
was usually customary, there is nothing
in the law making it absolutely neces-
sary for the committee to take charge
of such matters.
1t is to be presumed, however, that
Mr.. Sawyer, being the legal adviser of
the city administration, his opinion
should count as authority notwithstand-
ing the views of others.
At the council meeting the other night
a motion to refer to the committee was
lost by vote of to 4. 1t was after that
that Alderman O'Leary contended that
the matter was settled. Alderman
Haltenhoff then moved to set next Fri
day as the date for hearing the charges
against Patrolman Gordon, but the mo-
ton was ruled out of order. It was after
that when the heated discussion ensued
which resulted in the row and display
of fisticuffs.

Several days ago an Anaconda gentle

for several days and was just recovering
his strength, was awakened from a
sound sleep by an ear-splitting blast
from a sweeper's ccrnet, directly be-

his way to the window to settle for all
time this odious nuisance. Before he
could reach the window. however, the
sweep was out of range.
The gentleman returned to bed, but
could not sleep. He arose and weakly
