The city council did o good thing
in buying a couple of lots to put the
calaboose on, but it seems to us they
knocked it all in the head by selling
those lots, retaining just enough
ground to hold that building. They
ought to have kept enough ON which
to have built a city pound, which is
very much needed.

We understand that the city au-
thorities allow the saloon keepers to
take out a license for three months,
which is directly in violation Of the
city ordinances. unless the ordinan-
ces have been amended recently.
The ordinances say that the clerk
shall issue q license for one year
upon the payment Of 500, or If the
person applying chooses, he can have
it for six months by paying SIS,
making six months the shortest time
for which a license can be issued.
They go right along issuing licenses
for three months for SIS, and we are
informed that there is but one sa-
loon in town that is running under
a legal license. This is certainly a
a fine spectacle. tor those whose duty
it should be to enforce the city laws,
to openly violate them.
