Joe Burns VS. the City.

The case of Joseph Burns VS. the City Of

trict court for the past three days, has been
given to the jury. The cause was submitted

exposition of the doings of certain members
of the city council has not been conciliGtory
in any sense, and if he wins it is said that
they who wear the shoe that pincnes will see
that the case goes step higher. Burns will
go because he believes he is right, and that
he has the law and evidence to sustain him.
The first round in the case has been fought,
and it has awakened a deal of interest
throughout the city, largely, perhaps, be-
cause of the investigation IN the
council that is dragging its weary length
along. The jury and the public are now
weighing tho facts, the former as CLEANED
through the LAWYERS. and the latter through
the press. Many, if not all of them, have
