DEFECTS IN The ! Il
Commission Law
Continued From Page one.

tive, referendum and recall provided for
in the 1911 act. " 'f
Another matter in this 1911 law
which has attracted particular
attention is found in sections 81 and
38 thereof. Section 81 provides for
the appointment, by the board of city
commissioners of a treasurer, auditor,
attorney, etc. Section 81 of the law
of 1907 is identical with section 81 of
the law of 1911. Section z38 of the
laws Of 1907 and section SO of the law
of 1911 are Identical except in one
particular. Section 38 of the law of
1907 provides that ''every person ap-
pointed to an Office may be removed
therefrom by a majority vote of the
city commissioners etc. The cor
responding section 3S Of the law OF
1911 provides that "every person elect
ed to any office may be removed
therefrom by a majority vote of all
the members of the city commission
ers," etc. 1t is apparent without eargu-
ment that the change in section 3S
of the law of 1907 by striking out the
word appointed" and substituting in
lieu thereof the word elected" in the
1911 law gives three members, of the
board Of city commissioners, power
to vote the other two members out of
office, without a recall by the people.
This is a recall of the elective officers
in a somewhat summary by a
majority of the commissioners, with
out consulting the votes.
We think the absence OF any pro-
vision in the law of 1911 for the
initiative, referendum and recall, by
the people, and the possibility of
three of the board of commissioners
ousting out OF Office, two of their as
s~ociate members, who were elected by
the people, are very raw defects in
the 1911 law, which should certainly
be corrected by thesl legislature before
any city incorporates under the 1911
| act.
There does not seemsto be any pros
vision for fixing the salaries of the
board of the commissioners, except by
themselves, which we think is a. ques-
tionable feature of the act of 1911.
Section 90 thereof permits the com
missioners to fix their own salaries.
This might be good for the commits
sioners but 1t is deemed unwise to
have such a sweeping salary pro-
vision, without the check thereon, OF
recall, initiative and referendum.
There are other defects or faults, OF
both omission and commission, in the
act of 1911 which plainly appear when
compared with charters of other cities
in other states, and particularly the
charted adopted Dec. 8, 1912 by the
city of Duluth.
We believe that a committee should
be appointed by the commercial club
to investigate this matter and il
deemed expedient, n or more per-
sons be sent to Bismarck to assist, ii
may be, our legislature, and to CO.
operate with other cities, in perfect
ing this Law.
We have received communication.

ABOUT THE COURTHOUSE.
Brief Items of Interest Cullsd From
the Different Offices. .

Auditor Houglum announced today
that the commissioners of Clay coun-
ty will be In session Feb. % to hear
petitions. relative to the proposed con-
struction of drain No. 81. The board
will appoint an engineer and viewers.
The following day the board will
meet in regular session for the con

business.
The auditors office has turned over
the delinquent tax list to the official
printer who will prepare it for publ
cation in the usual way. This list
covers realty taxes for 1911 which
should have been paid during 1912.

Considerable amusement was caused
in the Office Of Sheriff Whaley. and
County Attorney Dosland over the re-
port which appeared in print today,
but absolutely without foundation that
"a committee is hearing the evidence
In the case which has been started
to Just Sheriff Whaley from office,
according to a complaint made by. a
discharged deputy. In the first place,
Sheriff Whaley has had no official
communication from the attorney
generals office notifying him that any
complaint has been filed. All he
knows is what he has seen in a st.
Paul evening paper. The alleged
grooming" of a Gainesville man to
succeed Mr.. Whaley is considered very
ridiculous in the face Of, the fact, as
every n knows, it is easy for some
piQued person to fila q cnmpIa ip+
against an elected official. but very
different thing to substantiate the
complaint, with testimony under oath,
and before a court of proper juris-
diction, to which a matter of this kind
would be referred. AS far as is known
the attorney general, who has charge
OF the complaint has taken no action
whatever-he is exceedingly busy
with the legislature.
