Tho occasion for the clash last
night was the difference of opinion)
between the mayor and the new coun
cil regarding the police force, both
as To personnel and number of mem
bers. The council sought-to oust all
of the members, the mayor objected,
and the council, after appealing from
the mayor's ruling, put the motion
through their chairman, and voted to
dismiss Chief Smith, Patrolmen Wal
ker. Wilson and Obenchaln and
Poundmaster Owens. Then an ad
journment was taken.
Xen Council Sworn In..
After winding up the affairs of
their administration, J. H. Hamilton,
Den S. On ens and H. J. Lockwood
of the old council left their chairs
to make way for the new men. Leslie
Hogers, the old member from the
II 1 st ward, was not present as he Is
In San Francisco visiting the Exposi
tion. Tho mayor thanked them for
the support they bad given him and
for their efficient work on commit
tees, and then Police Judge Leavltt
administered the oath of office to R. J.
Sheets, of the fiist ward; O. D,
Matthews, of the second; I. R.
Struble, of the third; A. D. Miller, of
the fourth, and M. R. Doty, of the
fifth. O. D. Matthews was elected
ptesldcnt of the council.
Tho ordinance for the leasing of
the city hall to the federal district
court for thirty days was passed with
an emergency 'measure, and a resolu
tion was then adopted setting the
salary of the city attorney at 600 a
year, that of the engineer at $1000
a year, -and that of the health officer
at $300 a year. When the matter
of setting the street superintendent's
salary came up, there was some dis
cussion, resulting in the matter be
ing deferred a week, upon motion of
Sheets.
"Isn't It possible to save the city
the expense of a street superintend
ent by combining this office with
another, and curtail the city's ex
penses?" asked Miller. "If this work
can be done by some other officer, a
material saving will result,"
Reject Police Chief.
Then enmo the appointment of of
flclals by the mayor. The first one
was Joseph Smith for chief of police.
I Miller moved the rejection of the
appointment Struble seconded It,
and the council voted for the rejec

For city attorney, Mayor Nicholas
named J. H, Carnaban. Doty's mo
tion to confirm this was unanimously
sustained, as was the confirmation
of Bon J, Zumwalt's appointment as

commissioner. Sheets moved his ac-

but I believe I have authority under

I want to say further that I've
heard you Intend to fire the present
police force, and make it so hard for
me that you'll make me quit or be
forced out of office. Prefer some
charges against this police force. If
you have any. Don't step In and take

You ate trying to step in and

you are the first bunch to step in and

You represent the people, but do
it fairly. If you don't like the pres
ent way of doing things, call a special
election, elect your chief of police,
put him under bonds, and take the re
sponsibility off my shoulders. If you
want this police force discharged and
want to run In new men, don't hold
me responsible tor your doings."
I believe it my duty to defend my
self from this charge," sald Doty.
"You say you 'heard' certain things.

"Yes, you said so right in my own
house, and I also heard that Miner
said jou would all make me ridicu
lous.
No!" thundered Doty. "That's
not so."
"It Is, and you know it," shouted
the mayor.
Then both talked fast and pounded
tho table, until Miller intervened,
stating that he didn't see why he was
accused.
"I heard on the street only today
that you said you folks would run
things to suit yourselves," replied the
mayor.
"I consider it a reflection on the
people of this city when you say there
can be no better police force," said
Miller. -"The mayor, In saying that,
Is casting slurs on this community.
The charter provides that' these men
are appointed at the first meeting of
