opening communication throughout the

An Ordinance tn be Framed Governing
Bonds are Given by the New Officials.

Last evening all the members of the
council were present at roll call. No
petitions or remonstrances were pre-
sented when called for, which is so un-
common that it deserves mention.
Mayor Johnson made speech which
had for its primal object the abolish
ment of unnecessary labor falling on
the city treasurer. Heretofore it has
been the custom to collect rents for the
meters monthly. He suggested that
the collections be made quarterly, thus
relieving the treasurer of the labor of
writing from three to four hundred
receipts. The council concurred with
him.
Money was set aside for the purchase
of new ordinance book.
The contention between the l. +. q
W. railroad and the city regarding the
grade of Harrison street and the grade

further contend the road would lower
their tracks at their own expense.
The city treasurer made single
statement in his report giving the
amount in the treasury as $6169. AS.
The list of accounts, which appeared
to be as long as ever was read and

on streets and alleys read petition for
the graveling of Sophia street In GER
tain localities. The report Of the con-
mittee was favorable. A petition for
the construction of sidewalks on South
street was reported tavorsbly upon by
the committee and was enacted into an
ordinance.
One important act of the evening
was the placing of matter into the
hands of the proper committee to frame
an ordinance regulating the width of
streets and drivewsys. This ordinance
will effect property all over the city.
In some places no doubt the front lawn
will have to be cut away and in other
places extended.
The last business taken up was the
sanctioning of the bonds presented by
z. o. Jones as mayor, J. N. Wilson as
treasurer, VIM. Leonard as clerk and
Thomas CLANCY as marshal. This was
the last session of the council that
Mayor Johnson, Treasurer Kelley and
Marshal Myers will be present in their
! official duties.

Where rain has fallen all crops show
marked simproyement and the outlook has
frightened considera bly,.

ton and doing nicely. In a few localities
it is shedding some.
