Gentlemen:
I am herewith returning to you, with my disapl)roval and veto,
Ordinance No. 1740, being an ordinance calling a special election in the
city of Salina, on Tuesday, the 10th dz:y of February, 1914, on the adoption
of Commission Government for said city.
From the inquiry and investigation I have made, I am unable to
find such a sentiment in favor of the calling of this election at this
time, that :rould justify the trouble and expense of such election; and I
therefore veto such ordinance.
Respectfully,
E. Niauette,
Mayor.
