CD BSJBSJ HUSON STANDS FOR ECONOMY lllti FIHH W'MIU VOVSVHMAS TAKKH 1HMIT1VK 8TAXD WHKX MIMTAUV IMMVS CONCKK1 I'KTITIOX COMKH VV Councilman W. O. Huson of the Fifth ward, Is likely to become known its the "wotchdog" ot the city treas ury, It one can Judgo from tho posi tive stand he took on the city expend iture at last night's meeting ot the council. The matter came up when a peti tion wan presented asking for an ap propriation of $100 n month to en- ublc the band to giro weekly concerts during the lummer. Mr. Huson Mat ed that he would llko to ice the city do something for the band, but It was not a question as to what they would like to do, but what the city .could af ford to do. "It seams to me," said Mr. Huson, "from the amount ot bills allowed to night and the eipense that we know that the city will have to meet, that we could dispense with the music. Wo have voted bonds to take up the out standing warrants and enable the city to gel on a cash baste. "We cannot issue warrants unless there Is money In the treasury to pay the same, and If we are not careful we will get Into as bad a shape as we were before the bonds were voted. "It's Tery easy to sit around the table here and vote money, but It Is like buying groceries on credit, you never know how much the bills are golag to amount to until you are forced to pay." Mr. Huson was supported In his plea for economy by the mayor aad Councllmen Doty and Owens. Councilman Savldge moved that the band be allowed $25 per concert for four months, the concerts not to ex ceed four In any month. The motion was carried, Huson, Doty and Owens voting against it. The attorney In formed the members that an amount greater than $100 could not be voted icept by ordinance, so the action of the council was rescinded and the city attorney was ordered to draw up an ordinance covering the appropriation for the baad.

An additional 100 pounds was piled or In the form of lead weights, and Ferguson was assisted over. the side ot tbe pit to the ladder.

After parading up and down Main V fm 0 street, a halt was made at tbe court house square, In answer to tbe clamor "speech," which had grown Into a roar. Still on tho shoulders of bis admirers, Worden addressed tbe crowd, expressing his happiness that his efforts for tbe progress of the Jcounty were approved by tho people, ana mat by their ballots they had completely vindicated him of the charges lodged against his official career. "In less than ten days," said Wor- den in part, "work will bo resumed) on tho now court house, aad tbe plans' of the county court for the completion of this structure will be carried out.

Therefore, It will be my utmost pleasure to proceed as I bare begun, and help make Klamath Falls and Klamath county the great empire It should be." Not even after bis speech would the joy-mad throng let Worden retire.

Marching und counter marching was kept up until nearly midnight. liven after Worden did get home, he was not allowed to go quietly to bed, for between 13 aad 1' o'clock fifty or more admirers surrounded his house, and an Impromptu serenade was rendered by a special orchestra, composed of some of the clty'a best known musician.
