WILL PASS It
OVER MAYOR

The breach that has been gradu-
ally forming between Mayor Pratt
and the city council will in all
probability be further widened
Tuesday night when an effort will
be made in the city council to pass
the ordinance giving water to two
outlying additions over the mayors
veto. One of the councilmen favor
ing the ordinance said this after
noon that it will be passed over the
mayors veto tomorrow night.
The first serious difference be-
tween the city administration and
the city council came when the ad-
ministration got behind City En-
gineer Ralston in the Olive avenue
bridge fight.
Then in the saloon screen flare
up it cropped out again IN the re-
lection of the charges against GER
tain saloon men filed by Mayor
Pratt and Police Commissioner
Tuerke, and the rejoinder thereto
by the mayor.
The most serious incident of all,
however, is the Pan Tan matter,
with which councilmen involved
charge to the city administration.
They claim that Mayor Pratt has
backed Commissioners Tuerke in
the Pan Tan matter, and the coun-
cilmen who are involved in the
case say they were attacked and
held up to public scorn and ridicule
on the sole word of Commissioner
Teurke, without even a statement
or hearing of any kind being given
them.
No action looking toward the re.
moval of Police Commissioner
Teurke by the city council will be
undertaken at the meeting of the
! city council tomorrow night, but
something may and likely will be
done later.
The Pan Tan episode is believed
| to be the 'stwa that broke the cam
els back in the strained relations
between the city administration
and the city council.

lay down beside them
shameless one," they had said.
And we will tell. We never want
ed him to marry you. When he
knows that people know all about
you, then you will see how long he
will stick to you"
1t was her little boy who now
tugged at the woman's skirts. I'm
sleepy, mother" he said; Il want
to go to bed"
Then he drew back, awed and
frightened by the strange, hard ex-
preston on his mothers face.
Was that fight she had made in
vain-that fight for decency, for
the privilege of looking the world
in the face? Could she bear to take
up arms again, after all these
years? Could she win again?
The little boy, crying silently on
the floor, brought her back to the
plCoCht. llC WAS q
new thought. Could they make the
fight-her children? She was han
dicapped this time. There could be
no flight to new cities, new neigh
borhoods, as before.
And in one terrible quarter of an
hour she made her resolution. And
having settled things she smiled
and caught up her children, her lit
tie boy and girl, and kissed them
again and again.
Then she took them up to the
nursery, grooming an old lullaby.
She put fresh white spotless linen
on the beds. She got new shiny
"nightlies" out for the boy and the
