FMMTEIS FfIRCITY FATHERS Proposed in Third Class City Bill Introduced by Senator ClarkLast Evening MANY CHANGES OF IMPORTANCE Mayor's Bight to Suspend Delinquent Policemen Is Clearly Defined in Measure —City Solicitor's Tenure of Office Extended to Pour Years Radical changes are made in the bill relating to cities of the third class in troduced in the -Senate last night by Senator Clark, of Erie, the fatheT of the commission form of government bill now governing Harrisburg and other cities. The changes proposed to be made in his bill by Senator Clark embrace almost every thing from permitting the Mayor to succeed him self to lengthening the terms of >eity commissioners to four years, and many other matters at present engrossing the attention of cities of the third class. The following is a synopsis of the new Clark bill which is very lengthy: "When a c-ity is enlarged by taking in territory from a town, township, or borough the law is changed so that in debtedness of the annexed territory and the city contracted prior to an nexation shall be paid by the enlarged city and the 'taxes shall be uniform throughout the territorial limits of the whole city' and the levying of separate rate* of taxation prohibited." -■ An amendment is offered providing that "Council shall, by ordinance, pro vide for and regulate the award of all contracts, the manner of hiring and discharge of employes and laborers, and for the fixing of their salaries or com pensation when not already fixed by ordinance, the purchase of all necessary materials and supplies, and the sale ot personal property." The present law provides that print ing, advertising and work to be done, shall be performed under contract to the lowest responsible bidder. This is stricken out. The law relating to bribery is limit ed to members of council and the pro posed change enlarges it so as to in clude city officer p: Baskins, Fralick, Taut, Bberle, Huber, Keys, Gant.
