SPECIAL MEETING
OF CITY COUNCIL

scribe TO an oath that ne was a free
holder OF record for twelve months
prior TO the election at which he is
a candidate and has paid his taxes
This Mr. Schoew and MIR. Kahle
have not done and the council in
passing on the qualification OF its
members, says they must take the
cath OF office before they can le-
gally sit on the council Attention
was called to the fact during the
campaign and before the city cleo
ton that these gentlemen were in
eligible by reason OF the fact that
they had not been freeholders for
twelve months. Mr.. Schoew is a
freeholder and is now eligible. and.
the council offered to appoint him
TO the position and let him take the
oath. but he declined TO serve un-
less permitted to do so without TAX
ing the oath. Mr. Kahle has been
freeholder five or six months and
is not yet eligible to appointment.
former council had the sole right
TO pass upon their qualifications
and that after the auditor made up
the roll the new council could not
question IL even II no oath at all
had been taken. The majority con-
tended that the old council was the
Judge OF election only and that a
member-elect could b. permitted TO
qualify at any time before enter
ing upon his duties and could not
enter upon his duties until he did
qualify as prescribed by the char
ter.
Mr.. Hawley stated last night that
members had been permitted to sit
in former councils who Mad not
owned foot of real estate and that
no question had been raised. The
reply was made by MIR. Crumpler
that a bad precedent set by a form"
er council should not bind the pres
was a good one or not the law
should be obeyed.
There Is no partisan advantage
to be gained by excluding these
gentlemen. The council has a two
thirds majority and to spare, and
there Is no personal objection 10
either OF them 1t was suspected
during the campaign that they were
nominated for their vote-getting
qualities rather than because of
.dasira. of-the rulers of the party to
have them serve and It has even
been suggested that If the council
had been Republican they would
not have been permitted to serve.
but would have been excluded and
members more agreeable to the
party bosses appointed in their
stead. OF course this is mere con
lecture, but so is much of what IS
being said on tine other side Of the
question.
Board of Supervisors.
The board OF supervisors met this
morning and made the following
appointments:
Auditor. T. Akers, the pres
ent incumbent.
Chief OF Police-Geo. r. New
kirk.

The election Of n city engineer
and street commissioner was de.
ferred until the next meeting of the
