The council wants the mayor curbed
It believes that the city's chief ex
ecutive should not have the right to
hire and fire the employes of the city
without the consent and approval of
the other city fathers.
This agitation along this line does
not refer to Mayor Jones. The pres
ent mayor has let the council do all
of the worjc that the charter provides
shall fall upon his shoulders, although
he has taken the active part in 'it af
ter the council has given its consent
to the program that he has outlined.
In all matters of appointments or dis
missal, Mayor Jones has thus far al
lowed the council the right of sugges
tion and approval and has taken no
step until after he was sure that the
members approved that course that he
was about to pursue.
The ourstiPtj arises over the case
of Grant B. Dimick against the city,
its chief -of police and city treasurer
now pending in the circuit court of the
county before Judge Eakin. In that
case, it was brought out that the may
or, had the power to make dismissals
of employes from the public service
and take the initiative in matters ot
appointments to positions under thf
supervision of the council.
The members now want the voters
of the city to approve a suggested
amendment to the city charter, that
will enable them to take a stand in
all changes that the mayor may make
against any of the city employes. The
agitation is merely an outgrowth of
the case now before the circuit court.
If it is decided to submit the matterj
to the people of the city it will be
done at the same time that they are
asked to vote on the amendment auth
orizing the council to fix whatever
salaries are right for the officers of
the city.

SANTO DOMINGO, Oct. 8 The
American Minister to the Dominican
republic, James M. Sullivan, has in
duced the warring factions in this
country to sign a peace pact and the
revolution headed by General Horatio
Vasquez against the government of
the provisional President, JoSe Berdas
Valdez, is at an end.
The American minister's action is
the first successful application of the
United States government's new Latin-American
policy with regard to the
Dominican republic, which is to- the
effect that force of arms never again
can settle any question in this coun
try. Mr. Sullivan his made it known
that the last civil war in this repulBic
has been fought. In the future any
uprising, he says, will be stamped out
as criminal without a conference be
tween the opposing factions, the Unit
ed States government supporting the
constitutional authority against force,
regardless of the merits of the issue.

A Three Headed Town.
When the town of Tolono. 111., ws
settled the question of a name arose.
The site chosen for the town was at a
point where three farms "cornered."
These farms were owned by three of
the early settlers of the region, by the
names of Todd. Logan and Noyes.
After considerable discussion it was
proposed that the town be named after
the three men who originally owned
the site. How to manage the name
was a problem at first, but finally
some genius suggested that only the
first two letters of each name be used.
This wp.s agreed to. and the name To
lono came Into existence. Ladies'
