City Council.
At the last meeting the city coun-
ell (Which. by the way, is Republican,.
made of itself the laughing stock of
the town. A Republican marshal and
a Republican policeman have been on
duty for two years, the former drawing
$66 per month, ana the latter $50 At
the last election q Democratic marshal
was elected and, of course, his aid
will be a Democratic policeman In
view Of this, the council passed a bill
cutting the salary of marshal to 500
per month, and policeman to $40. If
this had been done before election 1t
would not look so bad. Smaller cities
Ia Utah county than Provo are paying.
fstheir marshal even more than the pres
ent marshal Of this city receives. 1t
looks now, If this latest becomes an
ordinance, that all these Offices will go
begging. Men can earn more with pick
and shovel. 1t looks like spite At
any rate the marshafs salary would
never have been cut if a Republican
had been elected. It is said that
Mayor Ho1brool1 viii veto the dill 1t
is too mean for his approval.
