withheld his appointments until
too late in the day for the new

turning it without his approval. and
the Democrats of common council by
superior generalship and the fact that
the Republicans were not II unit con-
trolled the organization of that body

Department. of Delinquent Taxes

This department must OF necessity be distinct
and separate department. for the reason that,
while il is permissible by the charter to link
that with the city treasurer :. il cannot he done
because one is elective ard the other appointive
1nc treasurer has one year to serve. Ills duties
and salary ale iiAel by ordnance and cannot be
intcrirred with. and further, the treasurer has
never collected the delinquent taxes. II has been
done by q number oi delinquent tax collectors,
appointed by the treasurer, the remuneration
being 10 per cent. on his collections. IL will
he seen that It will not cost any more under the
new regime than heretofore, shall therefore
appoint delinquent tax collector and your
honorable bodies will fix what appears 10 you
to be a reasonable salary for his services.

Mr. chittenden quietly informed him
that his demand was out of order ut
that time. as councils were in Joint

he announced his veto of the reOrgan-

halted him and said il had no place
before the joint session. but must come
UP before each body separately. The
meeting then adjourned.
The veto. 1t was explained was not
