He once had consulted an attorney about the propriety of circulating petitlons, and being told that he ought not as a councilman to do so, he ncrnnlmuly had changed the contract to hia partner’s name. He did favor granito in the council, but it was because he thought it the boat material. A councilman, as such, could not use his influence to adopt a material.
