THE MAYOR'S MESSAGE. Re Answers tbe City Attorney's Co hi in ii n lent lon. Following is the message of Mayor Haatrd, delivered to the Council on Monday, which was crowded out of yes terday morning's paper: At the last meeting of your honorable body a communication was read from the City Attorney regarding the abuse that has grown up in that department, in which the City Attorney attempts to justify it on various pretexts, none of which, in my opinion are tenable, and I supposed the charges made in my com munication to you on tbe subject were of sufficient moment to warrant an investi gation by your honorable body ; but it seems, instead,however, to have resolved itself into a controversy between the City Attorney and myself, which I willingly accept. Permit ms, however, in this connection to express the opinion that the matter is of sufficienj; importance to merit some action on your part, and for that purpose I will endeavor to make a fair reply to the answer of the City At torney. The City Attorney says: "I would call your attention to section 49 of the charter, which prescribes tbe duties per taining to this office," and then goes ou to state the duties which do not pertain to the office. I would suggest that he should have stated what it does prescribe, and for that purpose let me quota the very first sentence from the section he refers us to: "Shall be tho duty of the City Attorney to attend to all suits, matters and things in which the city may be legally in terested." It does seem to me that the city is in terested when she is called on to give deeds to parts of her lands. I spent two years in that office, and during my incumbency the matter of alienating the city lands was one of the most, important questions that confronted me. and one that called for never-censing vigilance on my part, because the Council felt justified in reiving on the opinion of the City Attorney in matters of that kind, and are accustomed to do so. Let me illustrate the dangerous position the prosecuting attorney has put the city in by the position he has taken. Just let it be known in passing on the qnestion of granting deeds to c'tv lands, the City Attorney does not actio his official capacity, but is open to employment by those seeking deeds; tha', when he acts in passing on applica tions for city deeds, and his services have been paid for, they have not been for "services performed in the line of (hi*), my, (I am quoting tbe language of the learned attorney) duty as an officer of this city." In that case he iB acting for the person who pays him. If your honorable body is confronted with the startling proposition that the City Attorney and his deputies aro in the employ of the parties who are ask ing you for deeds from the city, I would suggest that these questions hereafter should be submitted to attorneys who are in the employ of, and who realize that they are acting for, and not against the city. He goes on to say that "these things have been done by my predecessors in office for years, and have been sanctioned by yonr honorable body and by the and therefore havo no apol ogies to m ike for niy aclions." Tois did not obtatu before the present Dsputy City Attorney occupied (lieposition he nov does; it originated voder bio admioiatration, however, atid irnen the- present 0! y Attorney came iulo ths office he did no.correct tbe abuse, but preferred to "divide," and charges all ttis. predecessors, by way of excuse, with doing likewise. I have the statement of the Clerks of the city that, ever since the passage of the ordinance he refers to, directing the deposit of this money with the Cierk, that no City Attorney except his immediate predecessor ever drew or claimed a cent of this trust fund. During that, time this office has been ably filled by Judge Hutton, Colonel J. F. Godfrey, Walter D. Stephenson and Judge McKin ley. None of those attorneys ever claimed a cent of money under that ordinance; it was passed during the incumbency of Judge Hutton, the ordinance itself being in his own handwriting. It does not seem the correct thing to charge these men with such acts when they are not true. During two years of that period I occu pied the office of City Attorney, and I always considered that the city was in terested when an application was made for a deed to city land If the present City Attorney will kindly examine the archives in the City Clerk's office he wiii find that applications are on file for deeds to a largo poition of tbe city land the city now owns, and had the City Attor ney- in those cases been acting, not in his official capacity, but. for the applicant, as our present City Attorney does, I don't th'uk the city would have much land left. I can refer him to a single case of an application for eighteen sees of land, where a favorable report by the Commit tee on Lands awaited the opinion of the City Attorney, aud he was offered a fee of $1,000 to make a thorough elimina tion into the matter and report, which he did; but on such examination he found that the applicant was not entitled to a deed, and so reported to the com mittee. lie never got the proffered fee, which was declined when offered, nor did tha applicant obtain a deed for the land. Now Ihe city owns the land, the appli cant having been compelled long since to abandon all claims thereto, and now recognizes the title of the city. The City Attorney proceeds to say: "This has been the law for fourteen years, and seven successive Councils And seven successive Mayors have failed to find any abuse in the law." No fault could have been found by any Mayor in the abuse complained of, when it never had any existence until during the ad ministration of Mayor Workman (when Mr. Dunn was Deputy City Attorney) and to listen to the language of ex-Mayor Workman, in bis condemnation of the practice, one would hardly credit tho statement of the attorney in this reeard. He (Meson to say: "Since the Mayor (my elf) has been in office there have been cix applications for deeds, and the Mayor has signed all of them with the full knowledge of the fact that I had pasßed upon the abstracts, not as City Attorney, but as an attorney-.it-law, and would be paid for the same." I signed eleven deeds as Mayor on No vemb»r 4th, when this was written, and I never suspected that the City Attorney was getting a cent until the application nl Carl Rutbard was placed in ivy hands. In the examination of the papers in that case I found a document indorsed "Re port of City Attorney to Land Commit tee," but on examining it I found that it was signed, not as City Attorney, but aa» attorney-at-law. It was manifest that this waa done for a purpose, and I conceived it my duty to ascertain the purpose. Then for the first time I came to a "full knowledge of the fact that I (City Attorney) passed upon the abstracts, not as City Attorney, but an au attorney at-lnw, and wonld be paid for the same." I did not wait" lor months, nor until after tbe "sewer bond election," but went directly to the Clerk, who is the cuetodian of this fund and wbo pays the same out on order of the Committee on Lands, and protested against the further payment of this money to the City Attorney. What significance the fact tbat I "might have complained months ago, before the sewer bond election," but did not do so, can have, except that it evinced a desire on my part not to com plain publicly of the matter, in the hope that tbe ' abutse would he discontinued without so doing I do not know. Before entering upon the duties of my office, I was requested to take an oath that I would "faithfully discharge the duties of the office according to tho best of my ability;" and I found that I was required by section 41 of ths charter "lo exercise a constant supervision over the acts and conduct of all the officers and employees of the cily, to receive and ex amine into all complaints made against them for violation or neglect of duty, and to certify the same to the Council or proper board," which I did. Reading again from the section of the charter which the Oity Attorney refers us to, we find that "it shall be the duty of the City Attorney to give hia advice or opinion in wriling, whenever required to do so by the Council." Now, then, read this: "The Land Committee oi this Council, because it was convenient or because it has been the custom for years, (not in pursuance of the law which requires him to give his opinion) ia accustomed to turn over to Mr. Dann and myself these ab stracts for examination, together with $25, the sum deposited to pay for the same." To pay for what ? For the examination ? I always supposed these papers were turned over by the Committee on Land to the City Attorney for his opinion in writing to accompany their report to the Council, as to whether the applicant is entitled to a city deed. A respectful consideration of my pro test against the continuation of this abuse calls for some action on the part of your honorable body, aside from a mere refer ence to the City Attorney, agaiuet whom tbe complaint is made, because in hie communication he openly states "that these practices have been sustained by your honorable body." I am respectfully, Hekrt T. Hazabd, Mayor. Los Angeles, November 11, 1889. A Curd of Thanks from Children of B.Cobn.
