sensation has been created by the re-

grand jury against members cf the
city council that voted to divert city
funds for purposes other than carrying
on the municipal government. Among
those upon whom warrants have al

ent time senior representative Of the
second ward in the city council and
recently secretary Of the chamber Of

to this matter" said Judge Dilley. III
appears that the grand jury has re-
turned true bin against us on the
charge Of appropriating city-funds for
purposes not regarded as strictly legitt
mate AS am informed this pertains
to the council voting funds TO enter
tain the cattlemen's conyehtion, TO en-
tertain the National Editorial associa-
tion and to send delegation TO Wash

The bonds Of Judge Diiley and Al

each and they had no trouble in fur
nishlng same promptly. 1t is intimat-
ed that several other members OF the
present council. members OF former
councils and a former mayor have also
been indicted.
It IS true beyond doubt that the
majority of citizens Justify the appro-

the fact that In every case they we're
