AFFAIRS At SOUTH OMAHA
Board Of Education Meets and Discusses
Injunction Proceedings.
ATTORNEY EMPLOYED TO DEFEND ACTION
City Clerk FILES Monthly Report of
Condition of City Finances
street Repair Fund About
Exhausted.

The Board of Education met in special
session last night at the high school The
principal item Of interest was the motion
raised employing Baxter, Van Dusen g.
Fleharty as attorneys to defend the board
I'm the action brought by A. L. Bergquist
to prevent the present board from hiring
teachers for the ensuing year. The case
will attract more attention in South
Omaha than any one of the injunctions
now pending. Sentiment is pretty much
divided in the matter. The board con-
siders that as the action is brought against
the entire board it has the right to employ
attorneys and defend its case. one object
Of bringing this case 70 trial is to put to
the test the legality of the hiring of the
city superintendent and the principal of
the high school. The reason H. c. Murphy,
the regular attorney of the board, did not
take the case is the fact that he is at pres
ent employed in several other cases.
Aside from the discussion In connection
with the hiring Of these attorneys the
board passed on a number Of routine bills.
The minutes were put in order and the
board then adjourned to meet Monday
evening for purposes of consultation.
