THE TRAMP PROBLEM.
The first matter which came up for
consideration was the tramp problem,
which has been troubling the city Off
cials and citizens for long time.
The town is full of unemployed men
and what is to be done with them is the
question which is puzzling the commun-

Guessed by several gentlemen present
and committee appointed to investi-
gate the situation and report at the
next meeting OF the board some prac-
tical scheme for dealing with the diff
calty. It is desired, if possible, to ar.
range some plan whereby work can be
furnished the men who are willing t.
