Itaby Sal's challenge was ripped Uj shreds by the jabbing, slashing left band or the champion, against which he had absolutely no de fense. Morgan's Iouk left jab found Its way to Sorlo's head and body repeatedly keeping the Mexi can's head tilted back and his weight balancing on his heels. When Sorio tried to fire his short, jolting rights, he found I tin t great weapon nailed securely lo his side, by the ring-wise Morgan. In t wo rounds, however, Ha by Sal saw realization of his hopes almost come true. He took the third and eighth sessions, and had the champion In distress In both. In the third he nailed Morgan with several lefts and Jarring rights and Tod went down. The champion, claiming a foul, weathered the storm, however. Again -In the eighth Ha by Sal had the tltlehold er In distress as the result of three more of his six- Inch rights. However, It was plainly a case of two much experience, too much ring generalship, and too much Imxiug Hkill for (he youthful, swarthy skinned rhnllciiKer.

The j council, however, declared that i there is no need for a commission-; er as Ioiik as there Is an efficient i superintendent under the supervis-1 Ion of a council committee, and so! an appoint menu were unanimous-' ly rejected, The mayor then declared be would make a recess appointment, and a motion was introduced that the salary of any appointee to the office he made $1 per month, but the motion was ruled nut of order and no action was taken. The fireworks started when the opinion of Attorney Kiddle, as re cently published, was read, t tie opinion declaring that Ccorg' Krew, as strew commission!, anil Henry Worth in nt on, electrical in spector, were de facto officers, serving without legal authority, and were not entitled to payment for their services. Council Prepared The council had the decks cleared for action, and Cart Wim berly, former city atorney, asked to be allowed to Introduce a state ment on behalf of his client, (ieorge I-'rew. "This is not a court," Mayor Hoover declared. "We re not try want I I ing Krew's case here. If you it tried, take It to court." "This is a public council." At torney Wlm her ly responded, "and any citizen has a right to appeal before this body to present any matter pertaining lo city welfare or upon his own behalf. I believe the council would like to hear this statement." Tlie council immediately re sponded that the attorney was cor rect In his assuiupt Ion and Mr. Wlm berly proceeded to declare thu status of Mr. Krew. Is Not an Officer He first stated that he had read the opinion of the city attorney and that he did not agree with this opinion. "The city attorney argues." Mr. Wlm berly stated, "that because the charter uses the word 'may' In granting authority to (he mayor to appoint a street commissioner and uses the won! 'shall' in referring to the appointment of a marshal. It was intended to leave the ap pointment of a street commissioner to the discretion of the mayor. It should be borne In mind, however, that the mayor has never exer cised the discretion to dispense with the office ot street commis sioner, but has constantly eiideav- d to place tn that office some person of his own choice. It is veiy apparent that the discretion In this matter was intended to be lodged in Hie council, otherwise It would not haVe been provided that the street commissioner should hold his office nt the will of the com mon council. The citv iiMornev In iis opinion seems to concede, as properly he must, that the council would have the right to dispense with the services of a street coin- missiouer at any time it mUFht so on the appeal, hieh was parsed I see Ml. Such being the cast, the ! unanimously. He then proceeded ! only discretion insofar as the may- i to place the motion fawning tut or Is concerned is in selecting the I resolution, and this, too. carried b person whom he wishes to appoint to the ofttee if the council de mine that such officer Is neecs- sarv. "The city attorney has cited an-! ! thortties whi' h h claims sustain ! his position that the term of office ! of appointive officers expires wilh the term of the officer makiiitt th appointment. Practically all of his ; authorities, however, are to the ef fect that a mavor or municipal council could not take any action which would take away the rivht of an incoming officer to mnki such appointments. In other word-, the minor or council could not up point an officer for a term extend lliK beyond the term of office of the members of the council. These authorit les. however, are not In point, for the reason that no claim has been yet made that the mayor does not have the riizli! to make appointments. Hut. 1 understood.

Authorities in Minority t "A few of the authorities support , the city attorney, but they are ; largely hi the minority. j "As before stated, the opinion of the city attorney is based upon (he assumption that Mr. Krew was ap- pointed street commissioner by j Mayor llouck. The record, how ever, does not bear out this as-1 sumption. It is my contention that) Mr. Krew is not now and neverl has been an officer of the city, but : has been only an employe. The city council under the charter is, vested with the authority to clean and repair the streets. As an inci dent lo that authority, it has pow er to employ all persons necessary! to do such work. Mr. I-'rew was heretofore appointed for that pur-; pose and has continued to serve in that capacity with the consent of: the council. There is no authorit to he found In the city charter for the mayor to em;lov persons for work, and he. therefore, has no such power or authority. I, therefore, request that (lie council take such action as is necessary to confirm the employment of Mr. Krew and to provide for tin pay ment of his waires." Attorney Wim berly was fre queni ly Interrupted by Mayor Hoover as lie presented the state ment. "Ho yon mean to take the posi tion." Mayor Hoover asked, "thai Krew Is not street commissioner?" "That is our position," Attorney Wlmberly answered. "He was em ployed as street siiperintcndcu:. I ' ; , , . , , , i land In that position is mi 'innloyci and not an appointive officer and is nireu nv tne council. "it has been my understanding said the mayor, "(hat he was si ret commissioner, and acting ou this assumption I declared his office vacant and discharged him." "You couldn't do it." tlie attor ney answered heatedly. "You have not Ii ing to say about an emphn e. All employes are hired and fired by the council and the mayor lias nothing to say about it." Resolution Introduced Following the sharp tilt between the mayor and attorney, both of wliom were apparently quite an - d as thev exchanged words. i t'ouncilman Kidder presented resolution declaring Krew to be street superintendent, expressing confidence lii his el fidelit y ami fixing his salary at per month and authorizing payment for his back services. Mayor Hoover promptly ruled the resolution out of order, bu Councilman Shoemaker nppeah d from the ruling of the chair. Tie j mayor called for a registered vote; j unanimous vote. "The motion is carried without my approval." the maor declared. "If i understand the council's posit Ion correct ly, I he ot fice of street commissioner Is vacant." Mayor Homer said in a question in-: manner. The council admitted that such was the case. "Then I'll appoint T. A. ' si reel commissioner." the announced. "Mo joii mean Tilly Tr asked Councilman Harris. "I think thiit's what lie's l called." the mayor answered.

"We have been getting along so f.tr without a street commission er," Councilman Kidder said, "nnd as long as we have an efficient street superintendent under the tii rect supervision of the council, I nee no reason why we should have a commissioner. Statement Challenged Councilman Harris moved to abolish the office, but was prompt ly ruled out of order, and the may or proceeded to appoint A. L. Arch- amheau of Tiller, as street commis sioner. The council pointed out that the man is not even a resident of Itoseburg, and contended that he was not eligible for the office, but Mayor I loover dec lared that such a rule bad not been closely followed in the past. This state ment was challenged by Council man Shoemaker, but went unan swered. The council, however, proceeded ; lo reject the appointment of Arch-! auibeau and i he mayor brought out another appointment, nainhw John Iteckley. Tills, too, went the' way of the rest. "Alright." said the mayor, "if you don't like my appointments,!
