MAYOR ANDREW ADMITS INABILITY <* To Cope W ith the Situation and asks Assistance of Council.-First Mayor in History of Village to “Quit”. Council met in regular session J and denied the statement of the Monday evening, all membora being' Mayor that he had bpen called upon present except, Xrvinei The session was spirited throughout and sever­ al liv ely discussions took place as to mattors of public interest. The reports of tlie different com­ m ittees wore received. The Mayor reported fines and licenses collected to the amount of §10. Chairman McFarland of the ligh t committee reported that the electric lights were out at various times during the month and gave the hours and dates. The clerk was instructed to deduct ihe outage from the month­ ly bill. -The outage under the con­ tract is to he two cents per hour per ligh t, Mayor Andrew in his report ap­ pointed WiB. Ootterell as ch ief of the Are department* ancl this ap­ pointment was confirmed by coun­ cil. A telephone was recommended for Marshal McLean’s residence so that parties wanting him could call. Mr. McLean was also appointed street commissioner. There was a reeo,minendation for a police justice to act in drawing up affidavits and hearing cases. It was urged that council provide more fire extinguishers as the need Was seen at the la st fire. A “complaint was filed against W R, Kemion for not discovering the Andrew Bros, fire on January 29 , and that he had not answered a call to arrest some fighters. ri’he heads of the different coun­ cil committees were instructed to to -make arrests and that he had ro fused. . H is story was that Charles Lowry of the telephone exchange, had informed him of some fighting and that he told him he was not day man and to notify McLean. The Mayor had stated that Mrs. F. F, Foster had p u tin the call. As this related to the enforcement of laws member Pollock stated that lie had complaints made to him as to law violations and wanted to know why the officers did not do their duty. Mr- Pollock stated in no uncertain terms that peopjewere disgusted with present conditions. As tho .Mayor and Marshal were present neither offered any r^ply. A s for tho telephone in the Mar­ shal’s residence there was some op­ position to this yet .the Mayor de­ clared the motion carried. As this was for an expenditure of money fliers w’as no suspension of -the rules where a three-fourth vote wa - necessary. There may be trouble in the company getting the money. In the a llow an c ed b ills Dr. Stew­ art opposed vbill of §2 caused by taking the fire engine to the D. S. Ervin fire outside of the corpora­ tion. The .)r. stated th a t it -was not fair to tax payers to keep up this department for outsiders and they should pay all bills. A s this touched on the annexation of mor< territory the Dr- made^hepoint that as long as outsiders had the use oi the engine they would never con­ sen t to cotne in the" corporation. report to the mayor at th e -n ex t there is a resolution against meeting as to what funds would be necessary for the next six months beginning with J uly. The Mayor is forming his budget and must have the estimates. The que»f ion o f police justice was something new for Cedarvllle and some time was spent, in discussing the matter. The Mayor stated that he had been called upon recently to draw-up papers for which he wan nor qualified. Ha held that ho was no lawyer and . did not understand law and for tha t reason wanted council to provide someone to look after this work. Member Pollock nominated L< G, Bull, seconded by Bhroades, and council voted unan­ imously in his selection . The ob­ ject of tho selection of a police jus­ tice as recommended by the Mayor is to sh ift responsibility in that he w ill not have to be called upon to settle petty differences and thereby reap the enmity of thoso interested. The Mayor relinquished all claims on tho law enforcement branch of his office excep t the titlo and tho salary of ?100. As to tho purchase of more fire •xtinguishors council instructed the cletk to correspond with manufac­ turers as to the cost of came and report a t next meeting. Deputy Marshal Konnon, who s e r v e s on n igh t duty, was present taking the engine outside the cor­ poration and the Dr, did not think ;sucb violations should be mado, or else change the v illage laws. Tho b ills wore allowed and amounted to #152,67, This was somewhat largo owing to an insur­ ance policy being paid which amounted to $116, The ordinance creating tho office of night watchman or deputy mar­ shal was passed. Tho Mayor has hold for some thno tha t the ordi­ nance should prescribe the duties of tho officer but the statu tes governed this. Ever since the present coun­ cil organized there has been a d is­ position of Mayor Andrew to shoul­ der this power on council when ho himself is responsible for a ll officers Council passed tho ordinance w ith ­ out the Mayor’s ideas being incor­ porated in it. Then the Mayor wanted suggestions as to what should be required of ,the officers but Mr. Pollock read the law where the duties are defined and the Mayor held responsible for law en­ forcement whether day or n ight mum Mayor Andrew and Mr. Pollock were appointed to constitute coun­ cil’s Gpresenfatives on the taxation hoard as proposed at a recent public meeting.

The Herald had scarcely been off press last Friday telling of the failure of the officers in doing their duty after a most terrible scene was enacted on the street on Sabbath morn­ ing January 30; when another episode happened. Last Friday afternoon Neil Massie, the same fellow that required three men to over-power him several weeks ago, was on a tear and made the residents on East street leave their homes for fear of their lives. Massie when intoxicated is a terror in any community and he made himself master of the situation on this day. He entered the home of Mrs. Sally Baker but did not find one that feared his brazen nerve. Mrs. Baker held the fel­ low at bay with an ax and finally forced him to leave the premises. He visited other homes on the street and made most of the residents take a hasty retreat, Mrs. Baker appealed to Mayor Andrew for protection but the Mayor in a very unconcerned manner stated that "he did noo know anything about the law and that she had bet­ ter go some place else” . Mrs. Baker wanted to know if the people had to put up with such work but could get no sat­ isfaction from the head of Cedarville’s "business administra­ tion” . Other officers were sought but they had no jurisdict­ ion in such cases as the law makes the Mayor responsible for similar acts within the corporate limits. The above is only a sample of the kind of a "business ad­ ministration” that the people have had the past month. We still have twenty-three months before us during which time J. H. Andrew will be referred to as "Mayor”. I f within this time the "Mayor” becomes fractious the "business ad­ ministration” —the drugstore, will provide blinds for tLi halter. ■ ■ As Massie is a dangerous man the Marshal was in the clear last Friday during the trouble on East street. A half hour after the trouble the Marshall walked out of "business administration” headquarters abd strolled leisurely up street thoroughly unconscious of any disturbance. Hereafter persons wanting the Marshal or Mayor should call phone 77, the drugstore. If neither are there at the time the "business administration director” will detail "min­ ute” men to the scene of action or start a tracer after the officers. So that the public may know the officials the Mar­ shal wears a "badge”, and the Mayor a *‘halter”.
