WASHINGTON, Jan. TT is said the

partment of Justice for the past eighteen
months. Friends of the Star-route
ring have been long clamoring for an
investigation of these expenses. The

he is willing to give the Committee on

The CITY Council.

IL WAS the general hope that when the
city council became satisfied that prohIbi-
ton could not he enforced in this city, the
members would be inclined to submit to
the wish OF public sentiment, stop all their
cranky experiments and proceed with the
business they were expected to transact.
IL was hoped that When the people mani-
mously elected MIR. Lacey councilman
last week, his views being known on the
prohibition question, their action would be
considered and respected by the other men,
bcrs of the council. We have all been dis
appointed.
The council held special session We'd
ne>th'y night, the mayor and all the mem
beers except Mr.. Chapin being present.
Mr.. Lacey offered resolution providing
that the marshal should. between the lst
and the 10th of each month collect from
each individual or firm known to b. sell
ing liquor In this city, fifteen dollars.
r. a. McN-al cndcayOrcd to amend the
resolution and Increase the amount To S25,
but this failed ~ did also the original rrso-
luton, Mr. Lacey's being the Only vote for
il.
Then, Oh motion Of L. A McNcal, res
olution was passed providing for the levy =
ing of special tax OF 30 mills on all the
taxable property Ia the city, the same TO be
due August %, and when collected to be
used la defraying the current expenses OF
the city government All but Mr. Lacey
voted for this resolution, and it was carried.
Then, on motion Of one OF the trio Of
reformers, the Office OF city marshal was
declared vacant, for the reason that Mr..
Bell was objectionable to these three indi-
vidimls.
There being vacancy, Mayor Shepler
at once handed in the name of 10. Smith
for the position, but McNcal, Kaufman and
Rouse would not vote to confirm the NOM
ination, and so the city has no marshal.
About this stage Of the proceedings the
head Of the "big three" Councilman Nc
Neal undertook to explain TO the mayor
why the council held a clandestine meet
Ing few months since and appointed Hil.
Tory Wcidner marshal. Tom. said that the
members Of the council thought the mayor
was imposing OIL them in the matter Of
making appointments and that was a way
they had Of protecting their rights.
About then the mayor dropped in few
remarks not altogether complimentary to
the council, and r.tired, leaving Mr. Lacey
la the chair. We should have mentioned
that Mr.. Lacey had previously been elected
vice president Of the council.
There appearing nothing more to call for
consideration from this wise body, it ad-
journed,
City warrants arc not worth continent
tai d;
The sidewalk ordinance Is not being ell
forced,
The liquor sellers are paying no tax or
license,
And altogether the Law and Order coun-
Gil have made Il nice mess Of 1t.
