the Sum and Substance of
What Mayor Stated.
COMMISSIONER GEM
SASSES HIS CHIEF
Tells the Executive if He
Would Treat Ash Men De-
Gently He Would Accom-
plish His Purposes.

At the board meeting today Mayor
with both feet jumped on
the city ash haulers for alleged fail
ure to attend to their duties properly.
The trash men had been summoned to
get theirs" Following the calling"
His Honor engaged in heated argu-
ment with Street Commissioner D. c.
Gem. The mayor became wrathy.
while Mr.. Gem left the room with IA
smiling face. talking as he went.
The ash haulers, the mayor claims,
are not doing their duty, for the COM
plants are coming in very fast every
day. The street department disputes
the mayors statement. claiming that
there are not enough wagons and men
to do the work satisfactorily. Now
sixteen men are being employed to re-
move ashes from the city. This num-
Der is nearly able to clear every alley
in the city once each week.
One ash gatherer told the mayor
he had to get all the ashes out of the
alleys between Twelfth and Twenty
third streets, south of Main street.
One Ash Mans Work.
do you expect one man and one
team to do that" asked the ash man.
II took twenty-four loads of ashes out
OF those alleys last week but that g
about my limit. If that don't satisfy
you, you had better get some one
else"
In Gems statement it was brought
ont that when he went into Office %
years ago. there was little coal used.
To use Docs" statement you could
go out to the hills at the Glen and
look over the town without seeing a
single smoke" Natural gas was used
then. He explained that conditions
had changed now and that more men
were needed to do the work satisfac-
torily He also told the mayor more
could be accomplished with the men
by decent treatment than by driving
them.
Mayor Zimmerman went up in the
air at this statement and said the ash
collectors had to be driven. He said
that the ashes were removed once
with that force of men and it's going
to be done now or all of them lose
their jobs" He said that no excuses
"would go" any more
Work or Quit Jobs.
The ash men were given orders that
if they could not clean up their terri
tories in week their designations
could be handed in at once. He told
Gem not to have more than one wag
on load of ashes removed from a tene
ment house in each week.
Gem explained further that he had
reduced the cost of removing the
ashes from $7.05 per working hour
| last January, to S4.05 at the present
time. In case of heavy snow this
will be- raised to about $3.50 for a
number of teams would have to be
taken from the alley work to be used
on the streets.
| AS to whether the school board
should be required to remove the
ashes from school buildings it was
decided, as there is special tax lev
led for school expenses, the city
would only haul one load of ashes
from each school building a week.

OF tiptop quality and rich bourgeoises

surrounded by balustrade, outside Of

venerable jockey performance, the cul-
mination of which was leap from the
ring to a standing position, albeit at
an angle Of thirty degrees, on the
horses back. In the old circuses it
