MAYOR BLAMEs THE SYSTEM.
Mayor Schriver explained that the

shortcoming Of the city engineer, bat
rather TO the way in which the city

OF the government, and the salary has
been drawn from the salary account
Other items have been drawn from
other special funds. They have beer

the work has been done. Commission
er Rudgren explained that it was the
fault of the system and that the COM
mission should appropriate funds for
the department in the regular Office
The records have been always forth

city clerk, Mr.! Rudgren said.
The mayor stated that since he had
been in Office and had sought for in

secured it. He further said that the
city engineer is willing to bring the
records to date and establish a diff
ferent system. All matters pertaining
to the Office are now filed with the
city clerk. Mr.. Treichler spoke briefly
and stated that he had had no money
in his Office since April and had pal

CHANGE LAW TO
GOVERN SALOONS
Amendment to Present ordi-
nance Before City Commits
sion for Consideration.
NOW TECHNICAL L0OPH0LE
Provision Carrying Jail Imprison-
ment to Be Eliminated, Only
Fine Standing.

Un6er the present city ordinance
a justice of the peace has no jurisdic-
| ton in a case wherein the ordinance
provides for both a jail sentence and c
fine. Such is the case in the old saloon

which says that liquor shall not be
sold dispensed without a license p:o-
vides a penalty of 80 days imprison-
ment or a fine of from $40 to $500. Re
Gently a charge against Q. G. Clifton

and it was necessary for the city to
carry the case to the county court

Attorney ]. r. Witter to draw up an
| amendment to the ordinance which
would eliminate the Jail sentence and
the clause Gin any public place"

ton of the law because of o technical
ity. The proposed amendment was
