them. The Common Council last night,
however, put its sea OF condemnation up.
on such a course and amended the ordi

committees.

pay some little attention to the solicited
advice of the Committees OF the City
Council.
The other most important matter passed
was a resolution To ask permission tu

will, if granted, give the city chance to

A GOOD AND A BAD PETITION.

tral Labor Union sent 10 the City Coun-
Gil last evening asking for an ordinance
prescribing those people who labor unless
they are residents within the city limits
at least six hs, is very well as relates
to contracts, but savors something OF the
Knownotbing principle as regards work
done directly under the supervision Of
the city and it's prescribed officers.

1t would be all right, but 1t has not, and
1t does not appear that II will for some
years yet. II such an ordinance is passed
what are we going to do with laborers
during their first six months residence
here. Must We pauperize them during
that time and make them lose their man.

that some such provision be inserted 30
