CONFERENCE BRINGS NO RESULTS Talk Ove and Pass Up Everything to C Committes of the After a two hours’ meeting of the city ecouneil Saturday morning. the garhage sit- uation was left practically in statu quo pending the regular councll meeting next Tuesday evening. The only definite step decided on was to order taken from the file all ordinances touching the collection of garbage and thelr presentation to the committee of the whole Monday afternoon. Mayor Dahiman, Health Commissioner Connell, Police Judge Crawford, Assistant City Attorney Dupn, T. B, McPherson and Guy Axtell all met with the counciimen. All of the latter were present except Davis and Johnson. Davis is out of the city and Mr. hnson honors Saturday as his Bunday Mayor Dahlman und Councitman Berka exshanged a fow thrusts to the respon- sibility for the existing situation and Coun- ellman McGovern and Messrs. McPherson and Axtell followed suit. Otherwise the meeting was peaceful and flowed along the | visduct of talk without interruption. The mayor at one point rather took the councll to task for. having labored since | last Jupe, with the resiit of producing a | resolution that will invite a lawsult and | nothing else done.

If they oan make money by householders paying for garbage removal, the men wil haul stuff and keep their districts clean can bond them and compel them to do thi but only when they can make It profit- able.” From Dunn's talk resulted the motion to take the proposed districting ordinance from the file and consider it Monday. Both Axtell and his backer, McPherson, agreed to surrender their present contract as soon as the city s ready to release them. Board Reaches Compromisewith F. A.

Councilman McGovern called Guy L.

Finally Assistant City- Attorney Dunn got the floor, on invitation. He stated the mandamus, as proposed by Councllman Berka's resolution, would not work, and went further. You may amend this contract,” sald Dunn, ‘or give these people forty con- wracts, and you will still fall to have gar- and refuse removed unless the people doing it can make money out of the work. ‘We fought that matter out here for seven years and had dozens of suits, finally golng to the supreme court and beating every ordinance. We defled Injunction after in- Junction, and no man of the many arrested ever pald a dollar, and now you have ex- actly the same si'uation. The contractor has gone in the hole $60,00 or 360,00, as any otber man will under similar circum- stances.” Dunn Outlines a Pl Dunn then outlined what he belleved could be done successfully. “That thing," he sald, “Is to let the con- tract for gathering garbage to men who have teams and want fo employ them to Broadwell matter. “I cannot see how the .board reached its decigion. Either Broadwell is entitled to the whole $5,000, or he is not entitled to a cent. If the board settles with me on the same basis, I shall be giving back 20 per cent approximately of the $1,000 in| warrants I have on hand.” NOW FOR THE POULTRY SHOW Entries Coming In Rapidly for Trans- mississippl Assoclation’s Exhibit at End of the Year.
