The Evening Herald is the official paper of Klamath County SUBSCRIPTION Delivered by Curler On Tear - 16.60 fit Month .... 3.60 Three Months j 1.96 One Month .66 Tuesday, March 23, 1926 INDEPENDENT MINDS. . Four members of the city council last night demonstrated that they had independent minds, when .they overruled the Mayor's veto and the veto of Councilman Z. J. Powell and de manded that a contract be entered into between the city and C. C. Kennedy for the performance of certain engineering duties. As an exhibition of independence it was first-class but as an exhibition of a desire to best serve the people of Klamath Palls it was a first-class flop. . ..... . Mayor F. L. Goddard vetoed the proposition in the first place because it was illegal and also because it meant an un necessary expenditure to the city. . Excerpts from his veto message are self-explanatory and do much to reveal the qualities of the master minds that opposed ' him. ' V . ... The message says in part : . "I disapprove the hiring of Mr. Kennedy because: "1 The contract price of $1850 stipulated in this ordinance is higher than offers we have had from other engineers of equal reputation and experience.,'. 1 "I consider it the duty of every public official to use the same discretion in public, affairs that he would use in his own private business. In a parallel case in my private business I would consider it poor business judgment and a useless expenditure of money to hire an engineer for the sum of $1850 when' I could save several hundred dollars by securing the services of other engineers of equal ability. ... ; "21 wish to call the attention of the common council to section 213 of the city charter, which provides that all engineer ing services must, be rendered by the city engineer,- also to a section, of the city charter. which reads as follows: No con tract, shall be entered into or debt contracted by the common council, for any one specific work or public improvement, the probable cost of which will exceed the sum of One Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($1,500), without first submitting the same to the qualified voters, at an election called for that pur pose, and such proposition shall receive a majority of the votes cast at such election to authorize such expenditure," ; . : ;':Thus, it will be seen, the noble group of free thinkers scored a victory which should bring them cheers wherever home fires smoulder. ; They voted to pay $1850 for work which ,couldhaye been done for much less, and at the same time they chose to ignore the specific' provisions, of a city law, one designed to prevent just such wholesale displays .of lamentable judgment However, no matter what it may coA the . taxpayers, the great minds had their way and the cause of freedom was upheld. Wonder what the voters think about it? Chamberlain on ' Carpet for Act at League Meet LONDON, March 23.

The new schedule, which Is now In effect, is the highest ever run by the com pany, it is said. Custom built and standard types of coachwork will be affected in equal proportion. . For the time being, production of open sport types will be stressed in re sponse to the seasonal demand for cars expressing that motif. Public opinion has it that public opinion hasn't It.

Whenever some injured citizen catches a.thiej 'who has gobbed him and perhaps crippled him, the victim is usually willing to assist in bringing about punishment for the offender. If the thief has money, of course ''thetfaw's delay" assists him in evading the prompt punishment that is due, but the injured party at least makes an effort and Is occasionally successful in bringing him to justice. With the United States government, the system is different, for a death from old age is more prob able than a conviction for a thief who stole from the. govern ment, says the Portland Telegram. The department of justice at Washington discovered indi rectly through newspaper sources about five years ago that former Secretary of the Interior Fall had put through some very valuable oil lease for Mr. Edward L. Doheny. It also became known that Mr. Fall accepted an unsecured loan of about $100, 000 from Mr. Doheny. These facts' formed the basis for an investigation which dragged along for two or three years, but finally resulted in the indictment nearly two years ago of both Fall and Doheny. The newspapers which had originally uncovered the trans action brought to light so many of the details that the matter as sumed the proportions of a national scandal, in which individ ual representatives of both of the great political parties seemed to have been tarred with the same brush, or to be exact, oiled from the same can. Now that we are in the fifth year since the crime was committed and nearing the third year since the in dictments were returned, the public is beginning to speculate as to the possibilities of Doheny and Fall ever being placed on trial. With such conspicuous examples of the miscarriage of jus tice as are shown in the Forbes case and that of Fall and Do heny, it is not at all surprising that most of the people who do not steal from sick soldiers and rob the government of its oil lands, hold the department of justice in contempt. Chinese Offer 1000,000 For Leader's Head People's Armyr About Keady to 1 hrow up Sponge STANGHAI. March 23. (if) The Shanghai Evening News says the mil itary governor of Shantung has of fered a reward of 11,000.000 for the head of General Geng Yu-Hsiang, leader of the Kuominchun. PEKING, March 23. (P) The leaders of the Kuominchun, or na tional army, are crying tor peace, giving as. their reason a desire to save the country further bloodshed. Official declaration of the new policy was broadcast today. The move is thought by foreign ob servers to be really due to exhaustion of supplies of munitions and enemy victories on all fronts. Seliure of the munitions destined for the Kuomin- Rueslan steamer Oleg at Taku, with chun forces, proved a severe blow at a critical moment. Threatened . with - an enveloping movement by the Shantung forces which menaced the communications between Tientsin . and Peking and outmaneuvered on the Lwancbow Mukden railway with the possibility of ,Wu Pel-Fu moving np from Ho- man province, the Kuominchun bad no other recourse but a hasty rotrcal while it was still possible. The Kuominchun diplomatic headquarters here has been removed to Kalgan and this is taken to fore cast the evacuation of everything be yond tbe Nankow pans. Thus far the retreat has been or derly. r fl OH, xe-s, vXe.si fie Sec,Tfciv MR.. "TUE, 4MB !'-- ClO ANT TCptA. flY -HWSCS. NT .THAT fovy wio h to fOOtfe ON IN, MR. WILSON. iolp hs'to lis seAT&T SO X.
