at is thus seen that while the act
authorizing the adoption of the COM
mission form of government gives the
right Of recall of officers. such recall
is hedged about by such exacting re-
quirements as to make It's accomplish

MANY NAMES CUT OFF.
ut is disclosed by the evidence that
all the votes cast for all the candidates
for mayor at the last general city cleo

tition for recall must contain the
names of 80 per cent in number of per
sons entitled by law 10 sign recall

a fraction less than 1886. The petit
contained 3.205 signatures, all told.

these signatures POI persons filed their

the total number of names on the pc
