sits before him in the form of mayor.
The attitude of the council toward
Alderman Sherwood was shown
at Saturday nights session when
a resolution by him was all but
laid on the table, when Alderman Eek
hart offered satisfactory substitute
that was passed. Alderman Sherwood's
resolution was in the form of a censure
on the city engineer for purchasing
sewer pipe. Other aldermen took the
position that the engineer had been
censured verbally and had admitted
that he exceeded his authority. Alder
man Eckhart's substitute had a gem
eral application to all city officers who
do purchasing without authority. 1t
was passed.
Bought Pipe Cheaper.
The city engineer says he will save
the city $500 on this job, and if the
figures given to the council were cor
rect, and they were accepted as such,
he will have $500 of the appropriation
left to continue the sewer into the
block between Twenty-second and
Twenty-third streets. He surprised the
council by telling the members how
much cheaper he had bought the pipe
than they could get It from anyone
else. When asked how he did it, he
made somewhat apt rejoinder by
saying it was because he did not get
any profit on selling it.
