LOB THE INCORPORATION OF CITIES.
H.F. rs, Kings bill for an act pro-
Yiding tor the incorporation of cities,
came up on its second reading. There
was but little of interest in the consld-
Grafton of this voluminous document
until section 81 was reached, which
read as follows: ITO prohibit, or 10
regulate all public demonstrations and
proc sslons which interfere with public
| traffic, and to allow, and order paid out
of the general tax, reasonable amount
| for the celebration of the anniversary OF
I our national independence.
| Mr. THURMAN moved that all the
words after the word traffic. be
| stricken out. He was not opposed to
| a proper celebration of our national
Independence, but did not believe that
any city should be empowered to make
appropriation for that purpo>e. Tht
people generally could be reiied upon to
contribute whenever the occasion arose
for it. The courts, beside, he said, hao
usuaIiv sat down upon any such pro-
position. .,
NIB. hlNG did not care to differ witt
the gentleman from Utah, but III
king did not think the law would
bear him out in the assertion made.
Mr.. MoYLE had favored the pro
vision in the committee, but upol
further consideration he did net deen
it good legislation, and would vot
against 1t now. 1t, he thought, opened
the door for other abuses. The motion
of Mr.. Thurman's was agreed to.
Section SS, which prevents the ring
ing of bells. blowing of horns an(
. bugles, crying of goods and othe
noises, performances, and devices tend
ing to the collection of persons on til
