HEALTH OFFICER CASE.

The supreme court last Tuesday
handed down decision in the Staehle-
Meany rivalry over the office of health
officer in favor of DR.. Staehle. When
the board of health, composed of three
aldermen and city physician Shimek
met year ago 70 elect a health officer
they were dead locked to , over doc
tors Westgate aud Meany, TO settle
the tie they drew lots and Dr. Meany S
came out of the hat which the mem
bers apparently accepted AS win for
him. lie was called in and notified OF
his choice and assumed the Office which
DR.. Staehle turned over. DR.. Staehle
then asked an opinion from the city at
torney as to the legality OF the election
and he filed a written opinion holding
that there had been no such election
as the law prescribes. DR., SJaehle
then claimed to be holding over and
both physicians claimed TO be the legal
health officer and published rival no
tices in the papers. DR., Meany then
sought to enjoin Dir. Staehle, from
acting and the circuit court decided
in favor of DR.. SJaehle, upholding the
city attorneys ruling, The su-
preme court has now affirmed this de-
cision. Dir. Meany conJended Ill court
that even if the lot drawing did not
consulate a legal appointment that
the subsequent notice to him by the
full board would constitute appoint
ment and that DR.. Staehle had no
standing because of having abandoned
the Office,
Another question involved in the
case is whether the local board OF
health is to be constituted under the
charter as it always has been OF
whether election 10y the city counc'.
under the state law is the proper meth
od OF choosing the board.
The courts decision on this question
coulG not be learned before going tc
