Doesn't Like the Way the City
Was Fleeced.


accepted $15 instead OF $l6D IN Iuil pay
ment for the Ringing circus license,
and as a result Of his act, Mayor Parker
is very indignant. and Councilman H
S. Nichols will at the council meeting
this evening or in the near future, try
to compel Mr.. Forbes to make good the
$S5 which he didn't collect for the city.
To justify himself, Mr.. Forbes has
paper presented to him by the license
agent of the Ringing show which reads
as follows:
I'VE the undersigned aldermen are in
favor OF SIS being charged Ringing
Bros. this day for their shows.
&C " WOLF.
F."JOSEPH GRII5EY.
s"W F. WEBER.
wv s. BERGUNDTHAL.
GEO. w. TINCHER-
IS. A. SWENDSON-
FRANK BLANCH.''
The councilmen who signed this doc
ument declare that they did SO under
MISREPRESENTATION. The license agent of
the show told them that Mayor Parker
and City Attorney Spencer were both
anxious to have the license reduced. BY
means of this falsehood, the agent play
ed his game, and won for his employers.
The peculiar part of the whole trans
action is that License Collector Forbes
should have dared to violate the city
ordinance requiring a $3.50 license, ana
accept SIS. even under instructions from
change ordinances by any such G9tling-
gun methods, and 1t is upon this ground
that Councilman Nichols threatens to
make Mr.. Forbes make good for the
money he failed to collect
Mr. Forbes urges still another justif1-
cation for his conduct. He says that at
ter accepting the SIS, he telephoned to
Mayor Parker, and informed him what
had happened Mr.. Forbes says that
/ the mayor replied:
well, I'm not going to go against
what the coalncilmen want to do
won't fight them. But think it was q
very bad move. We should have had the
whole amount due the city under the
ordnance"
| It appears that the license agent OF
the Ringlings' show is a very smooth
article, and that he skinned Mr.. Forbes
and the city very systematically and
artiscally. He Arst tfiedsto get Mayor
Parker and Mr. Forbes to agree to take
SIS. and when they both refused. he
agreed to pay $3.50 for the circus and 81
for the sideshow. as required by law
Mr.. Forbes went with him to Rowley &
| Shows dru: store to get the money
They found that not enough tickets had
been sold at the store to amount te
$3.50, SO it was arranged that Mr.. Forbes
should come again In an hour. Mean
time, City Attorney Spencer happened
| in, and in conversation said that 1T was
| too bad the shoy was playing against
SO much rain and expressed the op1n-
| ion that the license ought to be reduced
The Snowman thereupon started Out
and interyiwed the councilmen. Mr.
| Forbes went along and introduced him
| to several of them. The councilmeI
supposed that because Mr.. Forbes was
along, everything was all right. They
believed what the Snowman told them
After getting receipt for the $75, Il
was quite late in the afternoon. and

take the receipt to the city clerk to have
