An ordinance licensing or abolishng
bootblacks is a necessity. Gentlemen can
not engage in conversation in any public
place of the city without being interrupted

'Ithe fouest, most brutal that has been per-
petrsted in CarbonGale" says the Free
Press. In Carbondale, where moral in
fuences are supposed to be much stronger

greater than burglary or q robbery for
these three or four years back, and in these
cases the guilty parties were most always
brought to speedy and just punishment.
"A report OF the proceedings Of last
nights council meeting appears elsewhere
IL this issue; but 1t omits one interesting
feature OF the meeting, Damely, the little
farewell address OF Mayor Thisllewood. At
the conclusion Of the business and just be-

for the uniform courtesy shown him and to
express the hope that, as he bore only the
kindest feelings toward all members who
had served with him, they would in turn
feel equally friendly toward him. He had
served in the council for nine years, begin

members OF the council with him had died
aud OF the present members there was not
one who was a councilman when he was.
He again expressed his thanks for past
