romped off with elht of the ten
sessions.
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.

Wjatid Mayor Hoover attempted tut office of the old council does not
fill the orflce by appointment. 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. I'
Ik the position of the council that
until a new appointment is made
and the appointee is confirmed the

the ruling of the city attorney,
would hold th'dr offices until that
time, unless removed as provided
bv charier.
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. '

announced.

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,!
I ll abolish the office of street ,
commissioner and name liner 1

i "W here do you get any authority

"1 move that the salary of the;
