mands City Petitions.
MandamuS Proceedings May
Be Result of Fight.

committee representing the Anti
Commission Government league ap-
peared before the city commission to-
day and made formal demand that the
now famous graveyard petitions
asking for the holding of an election
to vote on retaining or rejecting the
present form of city government be
returned to the petitioners. Captain
P. H. Coney acted as spokesman, and
claimed that he had legal right to
have the petitions returned to him.
His request was denied by the city
commission and the city attorney was
instructed to prepare a written legal
opinion on the rights of the city COM
mission to retain the petitions as Off
cial city documents.
1t is understood that the Anti-COm-
mission Government league intends to
institute mandamus proceedings in
the state supreme court to secure pos
session of the petitions. No eXplana-
tion has been made of why the league
desires to have the petitions returned.
