Mnyfleld Council Meeting Lively
While It Lasted Pay Day nt Ed-
gerton Colliery Reopening of the
Loan Exhibition Tonight.
The fifth attempt to hold the regu
lar meeting of the Mnyfleld borough
council last evening was again a fail
ure. At the time of opening the meet
ing all the members, with the excep
tion ot Chairman Dcmpsey, were pres
ent. After waiting a few moments
withogt nny apparent sfgn of the chair
man coming, Councilman William Ed
munds moved that Mr. Shlanto bo ap
pointed temporary chairman. The mo
tion was seconded by Councilman Har
i Is nnd was about to lie put to a vote
by the secretary when Councilman E.
F. Edmunds objected, stating the meet
ing had not yet been formally opened
and until It was, no motion could bo
entertained. The secretary thereupon
proceeded to call the meeting to order
and read the roll-call, omitting the
name of Councilman Uergan. E. F.
Edmunds drew attention to the omis
sion nnd asked why Bcrgan's name was
not railed. The secretary replied that
on Aug. 7 council had objected to Mr.
Rergnn having any scat In council and
that on Aug. 11 the council by resolu
tion had declared the seat vacant by
reason ot Mr. Uergan having changed
his residence from Mnyfleld to Jermyn.
Mr. Rergnn denied that lie had done
so and denied the right of council to
declare his seat vacant. The secretary
replied that he had nothing to do with
council's actions. E. F. Edmunds sus
tained Hergan's claim and said that
Uergan hod proof In his pocket that he
was entitled to ills seat. William Ed
munds here interposed nnd said they
were not hunting for any such proofs.
He made a motion that Mr. Shlanto he
appointed chairman for the evening,
when K. F. Edmunds, Richard Rey
nolds nnd Uergan Immediately loft the
council room.
The secretary then informed the
three remaining members that he held
In his hand the resignation of Chair
man Dempsey as a member of council,
dated Aug. G, nnd inasmuch as this
made two vacancies on the council of
seven, the three remaining members
were a quorum and could carry on the
business of the borough.
After discussing the matter for a few
moments tho three members decided to
consult the borough attorney as to
whether or not, under existing circum
stances, the three could legnlly hold the
meeting, nnd adjourned until they hnd
the attorney's opinion. Prof. I.esher,
the expert bookkeeper, who was en
gaged some time ago to examine the
borough books and make a report for
a number of years past, was present
with the report, but on account of the
adjournment tho report was not made.
