Mr. Taylor offered an ordinance providing $7,500 for the new Royal firehouse ai\d the Bowman water rate measure was passed finally. Fun With the Mayor City Commissioners Bowman. Lynch and Taylor had a whole lot of fun with the Mayor at Tuesday's session during the debate over the appoint ment of William A. Blair. He was ' a patrolman deposed by the Mayor when the latter assumed office. Now he is to he the new policeman pro vided for by the budget. Blair, according to Commissioner Taylor, had declared that when he asked the Mayor why he was to be dismissed he was informed by the chief executive that he, Blair, "had not been for the Mayor, so why should he expect the Mayor to be for Blair." Whereupon Mayor Royal vigor ously denied this, said Blair told what was not true, it' he made any such statement, and added that "things are not the same nowadays that the whole purpose of the act under which the city is being governed is to eliminate politics." He added that Council never recommended anybody for a position except a Republican. A little later upon motion of Mr. Bowman, the name of Kd. H. Schell was presented for confirmation for another term of five years as member of the bureau of health and sanita tion. The confirmation was unani mous. "Now. Mayor," gravely observed Mr. Taylor, "there's a good Democrat we've just voted for." "Well," snapped the Mayor, "he's a capable and efficient man!" "Sure he is—sure he is," chorused Messrs. Bowman, Lynch and Taylor genially. "That's why we voted to confirm him." VETERANS OP FOREIGN INSTALLED OFFICERS ' The annual installation of officers I of the Captain Howard L. Culder Pose, No. 31.
