Confirmation Of J. G. Knights
Appointment to Police
The Principal Matter Before Mayor
and Aldermen--Again Postponed.
Several Prominent Citizens Speak For Mr..
Knight. But two Oppose Him.

Last nishts meeting of the city gov
ernment bordered somewhat on the
sensational y number OF citizens had
gathered according to invitation OF the
mayor ana aldermen. To cxpress them
selves regarding the question of the
continuation of the appointment of
Judson q. Knight to serve ON the relru-
lar police force and many We're present
SIMPLY as spectators. AS before, no
charges We're made against Mr.. Knight
but there We're insinuations of Il serious
nature, While weli-known citizens
spoke in his behalf The matter was
again postponed for one week. Nieor
Gus protests We're offered against lef
ting the matter hang without action.
since no definite charges have been
made. The principal reason offered for
postponemcnt was the fact that Alder
man Fletcher was not present a con
siderable number of other matters
came before the council.
