Cold Figures.

The board then took these figures
and got busy. Nelson and McQuarrie
held that the only Improvement of any
value to the county at tho Greenough
ground was the racetrack. The build
lngs are unfit for anything but tenn
porary use. SO they added the ap-
praised valuation of the track. $4,000,
to the cost of the s0uth-side site
which made $4,000, the value of the
land and the track to which the water
would be piped free of cost. Then they
added the cost of piping the water to
the West-side grounds, $500, and
found that the total cost Of his site,
land, track and water, would be
S23,noo. This difference of $1,000 be
tween the two sites was more than
overcome, they believed, by the more
valuable III accessible location of
the south-Side tract and this was the
explanation they made concerning.

Yesterday in the district court Har-
ry Hammerly, city attorney filed for

er or not the mayor had right to veto
the former action Of the council when
the contract was given to w A. Grif-
fin. The statute gives the mayor the
right to veto an ordinance, but the
point is not clear in my mind on
whether this right of veto extends to
motions or not.
The cases. which have been filed
will bring the proposition to a head
/ understand both men are working on
the cleaning job. Somebody IS losing
some money. / don't who it is, but the
action in court will determine who in
fact has the Cleaning contract
The history Of the case is that the
council advertised for bids for clean
ing the alleys Of the city and WIN
the bids we're opened, the contract Nsa
given to W. A. Griffin by the vote Of
I the council, at s21o0 per year. The
mayor refused to sign the contract and
at an adjourned meeting, vetoed the
action Of the council in awarding the
contract for Griffin. At the same meet
ing the council voted on the contract
offered by NJ. J. Marshall at figure
J of s11OO per year and stood three fol
and three against the proposition Th'
mayor cast the deciding vote for th'
motion and NJ. ], Marshall was giveI

Both Mr.. Griffin and Mr. Marshall
