MINORITY BRAvED A BLIZZARD
But Majority of Council staid at Home
Last Night.

For ome reason there was no meet
ing of the Council last night, though
the hall was brightly illuminated and q
glowing fire burned cheerfully in the
CRATE. But its genial warmth fell upon
very few there.
At the usual hour Aldermen Glover,
Bolton and ). B. Hudson put in their
appearance.
City Marshal Feagin, one fireman
and the janitor made up the rest of;the
interesting assembIsge Even the
hangers on who never miss a meeting
failed to show up.
In the meantime the gas meter
worked regularly, the fire burned
brightly and the janltor dozed. The
hopeless minority as the three mem
bers above named are facetiousIy call
ed, sat in silence for an hour.
Then they very wisely decided to adj.
iourn themselves.
The fireman departed, Marshal Fea-
gin aroused the ianitor, the lights were
turned out and the meeting" went
upon record as blank.

HAS TRANSMITTED THE PAPERS
Americas Police Case Before Supreme
Court,

The case of the City Council versus
the Police Commission of Americus is
now before the Supreme Court for final
ADJUDICATION, the voluminous record
having been sent forward yesterday by
CLERK of Court Chambliss after two
days work thereupon.
Which, by the way, adds another
snug amount to the bill of costs.
For the expense of recording the in
junction papers and decision therein
will foot up something like hundred,
or probably hundred and fifty dollars;
then there are others,
Tt is hoped that an early decision
may be reached possibly in March, as
the main question to be determined by
the higher court is that of Jurisdiction,
the Council maintaining that this case
is one that cannot be determined by q
court of equity.
This disposed of, there will be no
Difficult y, it is thought, In determining
the merits of the case.
To the meantime those policemen to
whom payment of salaries is refused
still wonder where they will come IN
on a cash basis.
By the way, the date is near at hand
when members of the force, under the
rules of the Police Commission, are to
be elected for a new term of two years.
The election will be held two weeks
hence, the new term of service begin
ming April 1st. That's one PROPOSE
ton.
Quite recently the Council, by vote
OF four to three, adopted resolution
making the members of the force cleo
tive by that body and fixing the date
therefor on or about March 31st. This
is under the revision of the ordinances,
which seeks to regulate the police de-
partmenf.
Before April 1st., however, the de-
cision of the Supreme Court may de
termlne the disputed matter of authori-
ty between the Council and Commits
sion. At least this is an end devoutly
to be wished.
