DEMOCRATS MET
WITH SETBACK
lcontInu.a Fr0m FIral 20

Mr.. Harman. who had just entered the
room was Immediately asked by Presi-
dent McNulty TO give his opinion which
he readily gave.
THOUGHT IT A COURT MATTER.
Before giving. his opinion Mr.. Harman
said: Il win state before proceeding that
/ would be much more satisfied Il the
proposition made by Mr. Marvel to the
Republican gentlemen. that Of taking the
matter into court, would be accepted with
out my opinion or a contest before Coun-
ell 1 don't see why the proposition can
not be accepted now and taken into court
tomorrow. MY opinion don't amount to
mach I'm this matter and I know IL will
not be accepted by the Republicans If ad-
verse to them.
Mr. Harman said there seemed to be
two provisions in the city charter that
applied to the matter, the first being on
page i5 section 30. which was passed in
1883. and, the second on page 22o passed
ten years later.
IL the former provision stood alone. Mr..
Harman. said there would be a doubt in
his mind as TO the legality of the pro-
ceedings before the present Council He
claims, however. the provision passed in
1893, being the lates law enacted. Is con-
sequently in effect. He declared that this
provision states plainly that any cNldi-
date contesting an election shall within
thrifty days next after the election pre-
sent his petition to Council and that body
then to appoint a day for the hearing
not. less than ten days nor more than hf-
teen days from the time Of fiing such
petition.
This provision" said Mr.. Harmani
gives the contestant thirty days IN
which to nle his contest. Suppose ii was
filed In nvo days after the election, which
is always the frst Saturday in June,
ltouncn would then have to appoint a
day not less than ten days nor more than
fifteen days distant TO hear the contest
