Man Who Bought Play
ground" for $4,000
Objects TO Having CifY's
Laws Annotated

Councilman James Kane. Demo
cratic leader in that body, appeared
last night in the role of a guardian
of the city's finances. Chairman
Kane is the man who engineered the
recent purchase of a playground
farm" on the western edge of the
city. and while he had no hesitancy
about spending the trivial sum of
$4,000 of the city's money for the
four and one-half acre tract, parly In
the city and partly in the country. he
stood up in Council last night and
opposed the expenditure of the enor-
nous of $4,000 for the annexation Of
the revised city laws and ordinances.
There was a lengthy discussion at
last nights meeting of Council over
the motion made by Councilman Nc
Govern, of the Eleventh ward, to
have annoted the charter laws and
ordinances recently codified by Con-
gresham William II. Heald and Rob-
ert G.. Harman and to allow Mr.. Har-
man $4,000 for the work.
Mr.. Kane, of the Fourth ward,
chairman of the finance committee,
objected on the ground that no pro-
vision had been made in the years
budget for this work and that COun-
ell did not have $4,000 to spend for
such work and he could not see how
the money was to be obtained. He Of
fered an amendment to defer action for
two weeks i'm which time he thought
the city solicitor could give an opin-
ion as to whether 1t was legal for
Council to have the annexation done.
Mr. McGovern expressed the opin-
ion that to have the charter laws and
ordinances annotated at this time
would be of great benefit and at the
same time save the city considerable
money in the future for similar work
as the charter revision would be kept
up-to-date by the city solicitor.
Mr.. Dempsey, of the First ward,
thought the work should be done.
Kane Guards the Treasury.
Mr. Kane said that to his mind the
annexation would be a good thing
only for a few lawyers and for the
man. who was to receive $4,000 to
do the work
Mr.. Taylor. of the Fifth ward, said
that when the question of having the
charter laws and ordinances ammo
tated was brought up some time age
he was favOrably impressed with II
but his opinion had since changed
and he thought that If the chairmai
OF the finance committee considered
that the money was not available f0'
such work thatftl8s should be give;

would vote to postpone action fol
