understand what was being suld. he
I heard the call letters of the station

' Mix Up on Health Doctor
When Mayor Gaddls aasumed office
ton first of tho year und was consul-
erlng . his appointments for various
offices ho labored undor tho belief
that all the apiwintivo offices expired
with tho old administration. Ho ro-
Aarded the offico of city health offl
cor as ono to be passed on by each
new administration und therefore do-
cidod- to uppoiut Dr. F. O. Thnyor as
the successor of Dr. K. 11. Pickel, ln
that office, and so aunouucod this ap
pointment. 'The fact wns developed later that
tinner the stale law passed In 1!) 19 tho
huath officer of a city is a norma-
mint fixture, nnd that his office only
UoCunioK vacant through his reslgnn-Wnn.-or
removal for cause. Dr. Thavcr
absolutely refused to take tho office
because of this, under any clrcum
stances, and Muyor tJaddls had no
can no to romovo hucIi nn ublo official
. as pr. Pickel, nor desired Ui ask for
in -rcHiKnimon. inereroro nr. rickol
ccntlnuos to serve as health officer.
The appointment of a now houlth offl
cnr.would have to bo confirmed by tho
statji board of health. Modford, In
publio opinion, would bo well served
by oither physic lun.
Despite tho fai t that the council at
Its last meeting decided to employ IS.
M. Wilson, cxiwrt accountant, to audit
the elty'B books for several years past,
a 'committee request was again made
by a committee consisting of Ear!
Kehl, John H. llowman and William
pays, who according to Mr. Kohl rep
i-vRontcd fifty taxpayers, to be allowed
tq put In their own man to oxamliie
certain accounts. Inasmuch as the
old council had fa-anted this permis
sion on condition that they hire an cx
hert Accountant to do this work and
p ut Up a fund to guurantco the finan
cial payment of such nn expert the
present council failed to sea why they
should not back up their predecessors
In this regard.
Mr. FVhl, who was present at the
meeting last night, stated that neither
the City recorder or city treasurer had
ever refused to give them any In
formation, but he Insisted that they
wanted to see the books fur them
selves and examine the books for cer
tain" Items. He made the statement
that whlls they could not afford to rut j
up money to gimrnntcu the payment
