Whether or not It !b wine to eend one or two oleFate or none at all to the an nual convention of the Lmrue of Amer ican Municipalities, which la to be held In Omaha th latter part of September, will come before the City Council next TVedneeday on majority and minority re ports from the committee on ways and means, which met yesterday morning. An Invitation mas read from the league urging that delegates be sent and Council man Vaughn moved that an appropriation of M he made to send one member of the charter commission. Councilman Cot tel seconded the motion, which carried. Councilman Rushlight, who waa In the .chair, will send In a minority report, con tending that two should be sent, or none whatever. "If the Council authorizes any to go thera should be two." said Mr. Rush light. "They should be men, one of whom favors the Des Moines plan and the other who favors the present Mayor and Coun cil system In vogue In Portland. If we cannot sand two we should not send any." "I think that any member the charter commtss'.on might select, will be broad minded enough to present all of his find ings Impartially." commented Mr. Vaughn. It waa suggested that. If two of the members of the charter commission are ser.t. that Dr. C. H. Chapman and City Attorney Kavanaugh be the ones. Dr. Chapman strongly favors the Is Moines plan, and It waa ha who made tie report for the committee named to investigate the commission form of government, ilr. Kavanaugh favors the present form of government, and Is chairman of the com mittee that waa named to Investigate that system. By sending these two, It was said, both aides of the case would be represented. "I am not at ail In favor or sending iny one." said Councilman Concannon, "for I believe the information they would gain can be bad without the necessary expense of sending one or two delegates." "I believe the Council should send some one." said Councilman Vaughn, "for It will be a gathering of men with the best ideas on municipal administration, and by rending a deleate there we would get far more and better Information than we can get by correspondence. Tou can talk face to face with a man and learn a whole lot, but seldom can you ever learn by bearing him speak from the platform, or by reading a pamphlet." CAN YOJJCOOK?

Mische,. City Parkkeeper, is having a strenuous time to get a clerk to assist him In his work. The Park Board has asked the Council twice to appropriate a salary for a clerk and to authorize the Board to employ one, but the Council will not do it. At the meeting of the- Park Board yes terday morning, upon motion of Isa dore Lang, the members voted io .lorain ask this of the Council. Simultane ously, In the ways and means commit tee of the Council, which was meeting on the floor of the City Hall,- below the Park Board, Mr. Mische got a rebuke from Councilman Cottel, and the committee refused to consider the application for a clerk. There waa a communication from the City Park policemen, petitioning for an Increase in their pay from (75 to $100 a month, and with It came a letter from Mr. Mische, recommending that the matter be held In abeyanc-u until a proposed scale of pay is drawn up. "I do not think these officers re ceive as much pay as they should," said Councilman Cottel. "As far as I am concerned. I would prefer to vote to give them their request, than to vote to give Mr. Mische a clerk. Let him do a little more work himself. which would not hurt him." The committee postponed action, ex cept to refer the entire matter to the Park Board, with the suggestion that it Is difficult for a man to live and support his family on (75 a month at this time. Later In the session the Board dis cussed, improvements, and it was agreed to ask the City Council to levy the full half-mill for next year, which will give the Board about (120.000. almost twice as much as it had this year. Mr. Mische again recommended the immediate pur chase of the Mount Tabor tract, but members of the Board do not favor this, as it would require about (500,000 outlay. Dr." J. R. Wilson was named as a com mittee of one to prepare and submit needed amendments to the park work for the guidance of the charter commission. Bankrupt stock of the P. C.
