Indignant Mankato Populace De.
mand Scalps for Palpable
Official Neglect.
President of Board of Public
Works and City Engineer the
Chief Objects of Wrath
full Attack.
Council Demands Resignation of
Both, but Engineer Haynes
Stands Pat.
Does Not Propose to be the Scape-
goat for Others Nor Take the
Cussing for the Crowd.

Stirred with intense indignation
over the ravages wrought by the cpl
demic of typhoid fever in their usually
healthful city, the citizens of Mankato
gathered at the council chamber Fri
day evening and denounced with
terrible earnestness the city engineer
and president of the board of public
works. These two men in particular
they regarded as having been negli-
gent in the performance OF their duties
and they demanded their designations.
Mr.. Porter, president of the board
of public works, said there was no
truth in many of the charges that were
being made against him and he did
not consider that there was any
ground for removing him; neverthe-
less, in view of the attitude of the
public, he was giving the matter care
full consideration and might be per-
suaded to resign.
Engineer Haynes, on the other hand,
is reported as saying: II am not 60
ing to resign. I am not going to lay
down and let people say that am
guilty. I will pull out when about
fourteen more do. Why, I couldn't
live in Mankato if I was to do that. I
am as innocent as babe that is un-
. born, and [ will not take the cussing
for the crowd. [ will oppose any eff
fort to remove me from Office to the
extent of my resources.
Alderman Gary says that unless
Haynes resigns steps will be taken to
remove him.
Mayor Andrews does not think it
right to heap criticism on such worthy
gentlemen without first giving them a
respectful hearing, but he does insist
that such legal proceedings should be
instituted as will enable the council to
determine whether or not, in such a
trying time, any public servant has
failed in the performance of his duties.
Z The whole city has been worked up
to pitch of excitement unknown there
in years.
The whole trouble seems to have
arisen from the failure of certain
officials to see that the pumping OF
water from certain we'll was not
promptly stopped after it was known
that the water therein was contami-
mated.

ly; vice president, A. L. Poehler OF

The Jordan meeting was the most
important and practical held thus far.
Congressman Davis of ST. Peter de-
livered an interesting address, and a
report was submitted by Messrs. Biers
and Poehler showing to what extent
the system of county bitches is being
extended in the area drained by the
river and proving beyond a doubt that
inside of five years the surface water
carried into the river by these bitches
would be more than eight times the
capacity of the river as it is at the
present time.

pdDy, and an engineer employed by
TIE company, secuted that part of the

determine the feasibility of the pro-

GARDEN THIEVES.

Several Wenatchee residents are
becoming exceedingly annoyed by the
liberties which some people have TAX
en- with their gardens.
These garden owners have been
so bothered by persons who strip
their plants, either from malicious
violation or a thoughtless disregard
of the property rights of the owners,
that they have come to the conclusion
that patience has ceased to be vir-
tue" and have notified the police.
So numerous have been the COM
plants of late that the police will now
punish any offender whom they catch
with as much severity as the law al
lows. in order to furnish an exam
pie to other wrongdoers.
