COUNCIL FORGETS
TO ASK FOR BIDS
COMPETITION NECESSARY FOR
CHANGE
Local Accounting Concern offers to
Install New Bookkeeping Meth
ods for Halt 6f Eastern
Price

A new issue has arisen in the ques-
tion of changing the municipal account
ing system. communication from the
Oceanic Trust company, with Offices in
the Pacific Electric building, signed by
the president, Thomas ]. Fry declares
that competitive bids must be secured
by the council.
In his communication Mr.. Fry says
that his company will be glad to submit
a figure for doing the work and give
certain suggestions whereby the change
may be accomplished at once.
The question Of competitive bids has
not been considered by the council,
although 1t is certain the cost Of chang
ing the system will be more than $500,
and the charter requires competitive
bids for everything over that amount.
One firm gives its estimate Of changing
the system as not over $4,000, but Mr..
Fry says his company can well afford
to do the work for half this amount.
Proposals have been received from
several expert accounting companies
since the council appropriated money
in the annual budget for the purpose
of changing the system.
Present System Is Joke
A committee, consisting one member
OF eaCn OIL tne L1Tee CIVIC DOuleS, was
appointed, and after long deiberation
recommended that the contract for
changing the system be awarded to
Jones. Ceaser, Dickinson, Wilmot &
Co., a firm of accountants with offices
all over the country. 1t was this firm
that agreed to do the work, guarantee
ing that the cost would not exceed $15,-
600. The council voted to award them
the contract, but the following week
went back on the agreement and left
the plan in statu quo.
Among others who have asked for the
privilege of changing the system are
Alfred Clark and the Accounts, ADULTS
and Systems company.
There is remarkable unanimity OF
opinion among the city officials as to
the necessity Of changing the book
keeping system in use at the city hall,
By the system now used 1t is next to
| impossible for any one but an expert
accountant to know, by looking at the
books. where the city stands as to
| finances, etc. The reports of the city
auditor have been the subject of COM
ment for long time and are one OF the
standing jokes of the municipality.

MRS. RoDMAN PUTS OUT FIRE

With common garden hose Mrs.
Willoughby Rodman Of 1881 Orchard av-
enue yesterday succeeded in quenching
a fire which, although confined to a
small chicken coop and a rear fence,
became so fierce that 1t threatened to
burn the house and surrounding homes.
The flames leaped and spread by the
tanning of the strong breeze, and pre-
scented a most formidable sight, but
Mrs. Rodman was undaunted and un-
hesitatingly attacked the fire with the
spirit Of born fire fighter.
While a neighbor's boy ran to give
the alarm she borrowed garden hose
and turned a stream on the spreading
flames.s
When the firemen arrived on the scene
they found no work TO be- done.

TELLS FLATTERING STORY
OF SKlDoo DISTRICT

Mat Hoeveck. one of Jack Mont
gonc erys partners and part owner OF
tbe SlSidoo mine, is at the Alexandra
for a few days. 1t was not such a
very long time ago that e. A. Mont.
gornery, much better known as "Jack.." )"
struck it rich in the Shoshone mine IN
the Bullfrog district.
Mr.. Hoeveck had share IN tnat
mine and when the lucky Jack" took
up the Skidoo last February, Mat Hoe,
week became part owner and general
manager. There was over half mil
lion in sight when the mine was bought,
and since then much money has been
spent in developing the country. Tne
men who own it are miners, all of them,
and It Is their own money they are
putting into the mine, so they expect
to bring plenty out of 1t in return.
The mine Is located In 1nyo county,
California, about forty-five miles from
the Bullfrog district Of Southern Ne
Vada.
1--WE think we have something pretty
good I'D there" said Mr.. Hoeveck when
seen last evening in the Alexandra
corridor.
ssIt is great country and there Is no
limit to the amount Of precious min
eral which can be taken out of there.
Beatty will be the most convenient
town to u.s. though 1t is forty-five
miles away. Distance does not mean
much on the desert, however, for we are
used to going far for what we want.
s'Just the day before I left to come
down here two miners of the name OF
Sellers and Carpenter made big strike
in the property adjoining our mine.
They came over there from Rhyolite,
and I guess they got pretty good
thing.
1--WE are only beginning to do things
out there, and there Is lots of money
to be made in California and Los An
geles."

NJ 'ALEER vETOEs
ELECTRIC SIGNS
NO GREAT WHITE WAY FOR
MAYOR
Says Ordnance Cannot Be Enforced,
and Business Streets Are Best
Lighted in the World,
Anyway

No great white way for Mayor NC
Aleer! Yesterday he vetoed the Or
dinance providing for electric signs.
over the sidewalk in front of business
property. 1t had been predicted that
the mayor would take such action
but as the business men appear 10
want it, and as they have expressed
themselves in favor of the ordinance
in sufficient numbers, it is probable
that the council will pass the measure
over the veto.
The ordinance was passed on pc
tition signed by practically every busi-
ness man in the city. Never before
has petition bearing signatures Oh
so many prominent men come before
the council, and the council felt that
it was simply acting as the servant
of its constituents in passing the or
dinance.
Admits Beauty of Lights
The mayor gives five reasons for
vetoing the ordinance.
Among them he says that the busi-
ness thoroughfares Of this city are the
most beautifully lighted in the world.
This is the first admission from the
mayor that he in any way approves
the ornamental lighting systems on
the main business streets Every or
dinance providing for these systems
has been vetoed by the mayor and
they were only made possible by the
council passing the measures over his
veto. In vetoing the lighting ordln-
ances he has maintained that the city
should pay no part of the expense OF
lighting.
(Other reasons are as follows:
"First-The ordinance is unenforce-
able and invalid and, should it go into
effect we must be prepared to tolerate
~, ct h ci
whether Illuminated or not, for the
reason that the courts will doubtless
refuse to enforce it's penalties against
persons who should erect signs with
out lights, or Illuminated otherwise
than by electricity, when their neigh
bors are permitted to maintain signs
simply because they are electrically
lighted.
''Second-Our main business thor
oughfares are now the most beauti-
fully lighted in the world, and there
is no reason or ground for permitting
overhead signs on account of addi-
tional illumination therefrom for the
streets.
"Third-This ordinance would per-
NIT all kinds of illuminated signs, re-
gardless of the business advertised, OF
the wording upon the signs, or the
candle power of the lights. If II
should become law there is no doubt
that numerous signs will imme-
diatey be erected which will be dis
figuring to the streets and offensive to
the public. Therefore the city author
tiles should not favor such unrestrict-
ed license in the use of the streets.
''Fourth-This ordinance is also OBJ
jectionable from the standpoint of fire
protection. for the reason that the
maintenance of large and heavy signs
in front of buildings would add to the
difficulties of protecting them against
destruction by fire.
"Fifth-In any event, If signs are tC
be allowed over our sidewalks, pro-
vision should be made for obtaining
permits from some official or board
clothed with authority to regulate
their erection, to the end that often
sive, Objectionable or dangerous signs
should be prohibited"
