DR.. Fahey Had to Sign Rail-
way Franchise
POINT RAISED BY SALISBURY
Mayor Fishers Refusal 50 Approve
Lighting Contract Creates Great
Amount Of Discussion
POINT RAISED BY SALISBURY

There is a great deal OF discussion
at present over the refusal of Mayor
Fisher to sign the ten-year contract
for lighting the city, which was award
ed to the Wilmington City Electric
Company. The point under discussion
is whether the Mayor must approve
the contracts made by the city depart
ments to make Them legal.
City Solicitor Reinhardt said to q
representative of the Evening JOurna.
this morning that he would not like to
give any opinion on the matter, but
that II is a question for the courts TO
decide, and he would like it brought up
and decided.
Both parties concerned being city
departments, l probably will take no
part in the case, but feel that l could
make strong argument ON either side.
and believe / would prefer the mega
tive side if l had to make an argu-
ment" said Mr.. Reinhardt
RAILWAY CASE MAY COVER THIS
This question was brought up by
Willard Salisbury in the Court of
Ohancery in the injunction proceed
ings against the Peoples Railway
Company by the Wilmington City Rail-
way Company which action was the re-
suit of the Street and Sewer Depart
ment giving the Peoples Company per
mission to use Sixth street.
Mr. Salisbury cOntended that it was
but a pretended consent on the part ol
the Street and Sewer Directors because
the Mayor had not signed the fran
chise This was but one of the many
contentious in the case. and 1t was Q
strong one.
DEPARTMENT A BRANCH or COUNCIL
That the Street and Sewer Depart
ment is a branch of City Council, anC
tllat It's acts should be passed upon b5
the Mayor, was one argument used by
Mr.. Salisbury, and he quoted the fol
lowing. part of an act passed by the
General Assembly:
Every bill, which after the passage
of this act shall have passed the Coun
Gil shall, before It becomes an Ordi
nance of the said city be presented c,
the Mayor of the said city. If he ap
prove, he shall sign it, but if not, h'
shall return it with his objections e
the Council, who shall enter the OBJ
jections at large on their journal, ant
proceed to reconsider it. If, after sucl
consideration, two-thirds of all th'
members of The Council shall agree t'
pass the bill. and it shall be so passed
it shall become an ordinance OF thu
city"
The question was not disposed of un
til Mayor Fahey's signature was at
tached to the franchise
