DEMOCRATS SEEK TO DICTATE They Ask Permission to § But Executive Won' ——County Taxes Fall Due. The democratic members of the oty councll called on Mayor P. J. Tralnor yes- terday afternoon to submit to him a pros- pective organization of the councll and to ; |ask that he permit the democratie councll to dictate some of the appeintments which lawfully delegated to the mayor by the oity charter. The list of committees In the councll showed a change since the proposed list was published a few days ago Since then the democrats are sald to have headed and cqntrolled each of the council- manic committees, with John . Franek vamed as the presldent of the council, The mayor refused to interfere In the organization of the counell, declaring that the council had the right to organize as it saw fit and that it should proceed on its rights without reference to the. mayor. He also gave the visiting councilmen to understand that he understood perfectly the rights which the eity charter bestowed upon him in the matter of appointments. The parties who are appointed: by the mayor are to be affirmed by the ‘council, but in the event they are not they will be de facto officers without atfirmation. The mayor showed a disposition to be conefliatory, however, and it depends on what the council is willing to conocede in its organization whether he will 'concede any appointments. Another conference is to be held Monday afternoon with the re- publican members, and the mayor may be called in The mayor dismissed the street gang yes- terday which has been working under the previous administration, but as yet has named no one to fill the places. John Hudec, the special officer in charge of the city prisoners, was dismissed also. County Taxes Due. The people of South Omaha are prone to forget that the city treasurer is at present the deputy county treasurer also, and that they should pay thelr county taxes in South Omaha. These taxes are falling due and many people will probably make the mis- take of going to Omaha to pay their taxes. They may pay them there, but it will cause much confusion, as the books are properly prepared in South Omaha. The city treas- urer, J. J. Glilin, announced yesterday that the whole levy of personal and real prop- . |erty was now ready for payment and should be paid in South Omaha at the convenience of the property owners. If'pald in Omaha it will make much extra work in checking back and forth and prectically defeat the object sought when South Omaha was made a subtreasury. Woodle Cook Incarcerated.
