JUST A LITTLE
LOOK INTO THE
C|TYS' FINANCES

SionerS. at their regular weekly
meeting Friday night, took no ac-
tion relative to calling an election
TO determine if the city OF Ardmore
shall have a new charter.
The mayor brought up the sub
iect by saying the fact that there
had been 4 mass meeting of citizens
with this end in view, had never
been presented to the mayor and
commissioners by any citizen or
committee OF citizens; that no per-
son had ever attended a meeting OF
the mayor and commissioners to
suggest such action. He said but
for the fact that he happened to be
at that meeting, the matter would
never have been considered by
them but he brought it about him
self, believing this was what the
people wanted.
The city attorney, in response to
a question from the mayor, said he
had received no reply from the at
torney general in answer to his in
quiry relative to the liability OF the
mayor and commissioners calling
an election when the city was with
out funds with which to meet the
expenses Of such and added that if
he did not hear from him within a
few days he would call him up by
telephone.
The mayor said il the election
was not called before thirty days
next preceding the regular election
that it would have to be held at
that time, in case it was held.
Resents Reflections.
The mayor said he wanted to re-
sent some reflections that had been
cast on George Groom, city clerk to
the effect that he had been prciu-
diced and had tried to keep off tn.
election. He said this was not true
and he wanted also to include the
city attorney and Mr.. Mcbride, in
this connection, for they had only
responded to questions put to them
while the mayor and commissioners
were seeking information as to what
the city could do in the premises.
He said he hated to see people put
out these things in idlcness.
