GRIFFITH AND THE COMMISSION

The fact that Mr.. G. j. Griffith was
not made member Of the park commits
sion has created more or less comment
ever since the board was appointed, as
it was conceded by all citizens, irrespec-
tive of party, that this would have been
graceful compliment to that gentle
man, in view of his magnificent dona-
ton to the city of 5000 acres of land for
park purposes. 1t is now stated that
Mr.. Griffith was rendered the position,
and the appointment was kept open for
several days awaiting that gentleman's
return from San Francisco. The tender
of the position was made to Mr.. Griffith
by Councilman Mathuss on behalf of the
Republican majority, but the gentle
man could not see his way clear at the
time to accept it, and the place was
filled by Mr. Stewart

TO STOP WELL BORING.

Among the petitions presented to the
city council yesterday was one for an
ordinance prohibiting the sinking of
oil wells within 2000 feet of a public
park The oil district extends in the
direction Of Westlake park, but since
the expensive improvements have been
made in that locality, the property
owners do not wish to have them ru-
ined by the erection of unsishtly der
ricks. The property is regarded as toe
valuable for oil purposes, hence they
want well-boring restricted.

relief. Mr.. Dockweiler will shortly pre-

the matters complained of.
