A BoMB-SHELL EXPLODES In CAMP
Causes a Change in the Situation
and Adjournment Until FRI
day Evening.

slider to have looked in for the next
few minutes, he would have thought
that the assembly had assumed the
watch over some corpse or else had
fallen into a Quaker council. The
mayor again called for business or
adjournment. 1t was up to some one,
most probably the clerk as no one else
seemed particularly anxious to read
little document that was floating
around. Its purport was to cut some
more of the mayors responsibility
and was carried by the board with
but one vote against it, that being
Mr.. Dunn's.
The ordnance No. 1T, can be found
elsewhere in the paper the resolution
is as follows:
Resolved, that the resolution passed
at the February meeting, 1901, of this
board, found on page 524, Book @, Of
the municipal minutes, authorizing
the mayor "to appoint one day po-
liceman at forty-ive dollars per
month, two night policemen at fifty
dollars per month, one sergeant of po-
lice at fifty-five dollars per month to
continue as long as their services are
satisfactory to the mayor be and th ,
same is hereby rescinded and repealed.
Resolved,
That the police force shall here
after be elected and their salaries fixed
at each regular meeting of this body,
and that they shall be under the gen.
eral control of the committee on po-
! lice through the chief Of police, from
whom they shall receive all orders. -
: The crowd seemed too great for the
solons to strike further and an ad-
journment was taken until 80 Fri
day evening. The public will be in
structed in novel ways if they care to
attend Friday.

Aberdeen Weekly: Some would be
linguists in attempting to use the old
time negro dialect arrive about as
nearly to success as they would in en-
deavoring to quote the Chinese Ian
guage. 1t is needless to say that they
are not of the south and have but
little knowledge of the peculiar ex-
pressions, abbreviations and origi-
nality of the negro veronacular in the
days of slavery. Most of the stuff
that we read in prints these days is
slander on the negro, and utterly fails
to picture his sentiments, habits or
words.

JACKSON IN A MIDDLE
Over Election of City"Oficers
Bitter Struggle Predicted.
Special to the Daily Progress

Jackson, Jan. 8.-Jackson9 is still
in a muddle over the election of the
minor city officers, and the struggle
bids fair to be long and bitter. At
the session of the city council last
night the city attorney submitted an
opinion declaring that the offices can
not be filled by election unless an or
dinance is passed providing therefor,
and as the position to the administra-
tion lacks sufficient majority to pass
a measure over the mayors veto the
ordinances therefore cannot be
adopted and both sides are resting on
their arms awaiting developments.
Mr.. Frantz has withdrawn his name
for election to the Office of police JUS
tice, and it is expected that the
trouble will be carried into the courts
before the end of the week.
