THE COW MUST GO.

What is known rs the "cOw ordinance"
passed its third and final reading at the
regular meeting of the council last week.
The prescribed limits wherein the fes-
tive cows will have no future privileges
in breaking down fences, demolishing
shade trees and committing various
other depredations, are between Plum
and Marshall streets, extending back to
Sixth. The lines as given in the ordi-
nance are:
BEGINNING ut Plum where the same
intersects the Minnesota river; thence
along the line of SAID Plum street in u
southeasterly direction to Sixth street,
thence along said Sixth street in Il
southwesterly direction To Locust street;
thence along said Locust street to its i'll
tersection with Glenwood avenue;
thence along said Glcnwood avenue to
Fifth street; thence along said Fifth
street i'm sOuthwesterly direction on u
| line parallel with the line of said Fourth
street To Clark thence along said Clark
street To Lock street; thence along said
Lock street to Bradley street, thence
along SAID Bradley street To Byron;
|
track of the Chicago, st. Paul. Minneap-
oils 4 Omaha Railroad as now located;
thence along said railroad track to Mar
shall; thence along Marshall to Front
street; thence along Front to Liberty
street; and thence to point on the
Minnesota river, where said Liberty
street If extended would intersect the
said river; thence following the course
of said river down to where the same IL
| intcrsected by said Plum street.
Considerable dissatisfaction is felt bya
number of people residing in the vicini-
| Is of the Pleasant Grove school, and the
basis of their grievances is because of the
| peculiarly crooked lines of demarkation.
The object of the council i'm drawing the
lines was TO leave that portion of the
city which furnishes grass open to the
COW. II is well known that within the
limits prescribed, there is no substance
whatever, and the only possible object in
allowing cattle 10 run ut large in the pro-
hibited circle would he tn allow them TO
ruin private property. This they have
done quite too long already. Whether
or not, in point of law, the council has a
right to prohibit cattle from running at
large i'm particular localities Is a ques.
ton that will be determined by judicial
authority, if We are correctly informed.
There is talk of testing the validity OF
the ordinance.

During the past week the Carson

that there has been great outrage
perpetrated in this city by the
dismissal Of the charge Of bribery
against DR.. Lee. 1t has even gone
80 far as to published pretended

1t has charged that certain ring
compelled Justice Of the Peace
tn resign. and secured the appoint

Justice might he defeated. These
vile slanders against the good name
Of Carson and against the repnta-
tiop of some of t. leading citizens,
have been reruhlishe! by rewspa-
pers, whose propri4t,rs doubtless
believe them to be facts. These ar
tirles against the reputation of the

ROWLING FOR THE SACK

The long drawn howl of the Mug
wump and Democratic press for the
railroad sack il the most heartrend-
ing noise that has ever excited pity
for the unfortunate in this State.
No one With spark Of sympathy
or tenderness of feeling can hear
it and not weep a good deal harder
than ever Marius did over the ruins
of Carthage. 1t has been going on
now for weeks, and the fact that
the noise is not diminishing indi-
Gates that the vacuum IN the news
paporial belly is not yet filed.
The doleful walls and ear split
ting screeches that have been GO

and smack very much Of the per-

Capt. William s. johnson, retired, residing in
this city, that he has duplicated his pay ac-
counts. and court-martial, 1t is understood,
Will be ordered as soon as Secretary Endicott
returns from his vacation. Tue severity with
which such cases have been treated Of recent
years gave the hope that this practice of dupii.
eating pay, which has been SO common had
been broken up. But now this case comes to
the front. 1t is charged that Capt. Johnson's
pay has Uecn collected on Two accounts iOr one
month, the accounts being settled at the de-
partmenL here and by the paymaster in New
YORK Capt. Johnson, IL Is said, ha, been
brought before the department before on q
similar charge, but on account OF extenuating
circumstances he escaped u cOurt-nartial and
got on with merely reprimand from the Secre-
lary.
His earlier record is stained by court-mar-
tial sentence Of dismissal from the service.
W hle lieutenant in the quartermasters de-
partment al Fort Wayne, Ia Michigan, he got
