him.
During the progress of the matter
Mr.. Stack became very much angered
and used openly such violent and pro-
tame language, as in my opinion de-
manded his suspension from his dut-
les. | accordingly then and there sus-
pended Mr.. Stack from the discharge
OF the duties of the position of city
electrician and now, in accordance
with law, make report to you of that
suspension at this, your next meet
ing thereafter.
Under the ordinance providing for
the city electrician, it is expressly
stipulated that his employment can
be terminated at any time at the
pleasure of the mayor and council.
and he mas no fixed term of office
other than as stated in that ordinance.
