"MAYOR IS ASKED TO RESIGN HIS OFFICE (Continued from Page One.) must go—the city must be cleaned ap. Bemidji must and will be a good place in which to live.” The aldermen immediately broke into a series of comments, taking into coneideration the recent grist of Be- midji law violators, run through the mill in the district court, and criti- clsms of the mayor and police de. partment flew thick. : Mayor Defends Self. . Mayor Johnson defended his ad- ministration and remarked that the indictments referred to had been up- on evidence secured before he was slected, that he had been absent from the city days at various times on busi- ness and had considered affairs run- ning as they should, and expressed -pr}:rhe at the reports concerning the ce. jRERR 2 “'‘Oné bld was received for construc- tion of the water pump houses, but it exceeded the estimate and the city engineer will do the work. f J. P. Lahr made a verbal report on the tax levy for the coming year and remgrked that in all probability it would be 105 mills or 106 mills. This year it was ‘101 mills.

It was also broached that some- thing had to be done with the fire de- partment, as an inspector has been in Bemidji and better training for the firemen was advocated with the en- gaging of an experienced fireman xs head of the department. He would have duties of inspection of fir risks and the proper inspection of wiring. 8uch, it was argued, would reduce the expense of insurance in the city. A member of the department and some eivilian property owners spoke. A eommittee consisting of Barnell, Ben- ner, Palmer, Backus and Jones was aamed to meet with the fire depart- ment tonight at its annual meeting and discuss the subject with them.
