DISCUSS CASE
AFTER GOING THOROUGHLY INTO
MATTER OF DISMISSAL or IN
sPEcToR sIERNE, CITY ATToR-
NEY is ASKED FOR OPINION AS
TO cITYs LIABILITY FOR
SALARY.

After discussing the matter thor
oughly yesterday afternoon the water
and gas committee appealed to the
city attorney for advice in the case of
Henry T. Beirne, who had appealed
to that committee because of his re-
cent dismissal as inspector of the
work of extending the water MAINS
The city attorney is asked to render
an opinion as to whether or not the
city win have to pay the salary of
Beirne, who is claiming. his salary for
the time, although he has-been dis
missed.
Beirne was employed to inspect the
work of extending the mains, the con-
tract having been awarded to Chas. A.
Born. Recently Beirne condemned a
considerable amount of the work,
claiming that the pipe used on the
job was not up to the specifications
He claims that for this reason he was
dismissed. by the superintendent of
the water department and that man
who is not a plumber was put in his
stead. He applied to the water and
gas committee to reinstate him and
contends that he is entitled to his
salary whether he works or not, under
the circumstances.
The decision of the water and gas
committee sustains the superintendent
in dismussing Beirne, the only ques-
ton being as to whether or not he can
collect his salary.

Among the most important actions
taken by the Pensacola Commercial
Association recently is the appoints
ment Of VIM. Fisher as a committee
Of one to investigate the advisability
Of organizing a commercial associa-
ton to look after and represent the
interests of West Florida, the idea Of
the insstigators Of the movement being
to form an Organization which shall
stand in the same relation to West
Florida as a whole that the local asso-
citation does to Pensacola and Escam-
bia county.
Secretary Henderson and the men,
bers of the board of directors realize
that anything that benefits West Flor
ida win benefit Pensacola and that
tlle oriy way to accomplish the best
results is through organized effort and
through acting as a unit when several
communities are concerned. The idea
Is to create this organization and
establish subsidiary auxiliaries in
each county and town included in the
membership. with a central office IN
this city. The effect of such an or
tanization upon this city is obvious.
Every county from Jefferson county
west tincIuding that county, will be
asked to enter into the organization,
according to the plans of those who
are interested.
Mr.. Fisher will take up the matter
through correspondence with some
other towns in the territory and viii
conduct an Investigation, after which
he win report back to the board Of
directors.
To Extend Freight Service.
Another important decision of the
board Of directors is to, consider the
ACCESSIBILITY of extending the service
of the freight bureau of the CONNER
eial Association in Pensacola and
make It available in West Florida,
Southwest Alabama and Southwest
Georgia
A. NJ. Avery, Jr., has been. appointed
q committee to institute the prelimI-
nary proceedings on this proposition.
He WIN also report back to the board
Of directors after making his investi-
cations.
