MAY ADVERTISE
BONDS TO REPAIR
THE COURT HOUSE
Expect Resolution to Pass To-
day-Sold as Work
Progresses.

The board Of county commissions
ers this morning probably will pass
a resolution calling for adver-
tisements for the sale of 100000 OF
bonds for the repair of the court
house and the restoration of county
records destroyed in the fire of Sep
tember %.
County Attorney Shotwell drew
up the resolution in legal form.
Never before in Douglas county
hav. five men passed a resolution
involving so much money. Usually
the people have to vote on bond
issues. In the present instance the
state legislature at special session
called by Governor McKelvie fol-
lowing the riot and fire of Septem-
Der % gave the Douglas county
commissioners authority to issue
the bonds.
Delay of Month
Delay of nearly a month was
caused when citizens objected to the
hiring of John Latenser to make the
repairs. Then committees of archi-
tects, engineers, contractors and
laymen were appointed to make es-
Inmates of the cost of repairs and
committees of abstractors and
real estate men to estimate the
cost of restoring the records.
The Citizens and Taxpayers
league objected to the estimate Of
$250,000 to restore the records in
the register of deeds office and of
$4,000 to restore the records in the
treasurer's office. The county COM
missioners cut these to $235,000 and
$4,000 respectively.
Itemized Cost.
The resolution to be passed calls
for issuing bonds of Douglas coun-
tv to cover the following items:
Repairing the court house and
furniture and fixtures for the
Res,orins n0rss pseord. in tn. register
Restoring records in county and
city treasurer's office ......... $4,000
Restoring records in county asses
sor's office 10000
Total ........................ss .ss22, 900
Collectors to the estimates for
restoring the records should re-
member that this work will be done
by clerks working by the day and
bonds will be issued just as fast as
is necessary to pay the clerks" said
Commissioner Unit. "If the records
in the register of deeds are re-
stored for $150,000 we simply won't
issue the rest of the bonds. But if
our estimates were too low we
couldn't get additional money to
this work"

ride IN A PACKARD
Four City Commissioners Vote
to Buy High Priced
Cars.

"This is ruthless extravaganza"
asserted Mayor Smith yesterday in
the city council chamber, during a
discussion of the purchase of two
new automobile patrols for the po-
lice department.
Police Commissioner Ringer, sup
ported by Commissioners Zimman,
Towl, and Falconer, voted to pur-
chase two new Packards at price
of $5,7l2 each. Mayor Smith and
Commissioners Butler and Ure voted
against the resolution.
Hold Special Meeting.
The decision to buy these two
new automobiles was the culmina-
ton of spirited situation. In the
first instance Mr.. Ringer asked the
council to approve his recommends
ton to buy two used Packards at 4
price of $6,l44 for the two. The
council approved that recommended
ton Thursday morning and then
rescinded its action, deciding to hold
a special meeting yesterday when
the automobile men appeared in the
council with their arguments.
The cars which were purchased
were the highest priced of any Of
fered by the bidders.
Ure Against Purchase.
An interesting phase of the sit
uation is the opposition of City
Commissioner Ure to the purchase
of these expensive patrols for the
police department, in view of Mr..
Ure's support of Mr.. Ringer during
the recent days of stress for the
police commissioner.
These cars will never be bought
if I can help it," said Mr.. Ure.
