Now for good, conscientious school
work. See to it that your children
keep in school every day they are well,
SO they will be able to keep up with
their classes. School days are none
too long, and neglect of early educa-
ton through the carelessness or
thoughtlessness of parents often leads
to woeful suffering and humiliation.
Don't let your children run wild.

by Assistant Secretary Vanderlip and
United States Treasurer Roberts of the

Brooklyn and the other, S275, was re-

1t is wonder he didn't attempt to run

Wharton then suggested that the citi-
zens present give approval or disap
proval of the acts Of the city council by
rising to their feet. All rose except
Clerk Delaplain and City Attorney Car
nahan. Those disappearing were then
called for but these gentlemen did not
heed amy thing done by the council.
Jane II. Ramey here declared that
Henry Kippe was legally elected mem
ber of council. Broemser moved that
his name be placed upon the roll.
Aide. man Dickerson moved that a
committee of three be appointed to Sc

Alderman Dickerson presented mi
nority report on the application of Ii
cense for saloons The report favorable
to granting the licenses. Alderman Ra-
mey's report was unfavorable to grant
ing them licenses. 1t looked very much
at this iuncture as if several people un-
derstood the two reports very well and
that they had been prepared on two op-
posite sides for purpose. OF course
not being on the inside the reporter
could not determine.
The saloon licenses were then granted
for the fiscal six months beginning on

Soldiers Beg For Food.

The following article, clipped from one
of our exchanges tells how the Forty
sixth United States volunteer infantry
that passed through Grand junction
Sunday and Monday obtained food at
Ogden.
Ogden today witnessed the spectacle
of United States soldiers begging in the
streets for something to eat. They we're
members of party OF the Forty sixth
volunteer infantry, and came from South
birmingham, Mass, in command OF
Col. Schuyler.
When they marched through the
streets, while they made good military
appearance, they all acted tired.
After their march they scattered
through the city, and many little purses
were made up for them by the citizens
whom they happened to meet. They
took the money and bought bread
They stated that they had been fed on
hardtack and canned beef with coffee
from time they started. The regiment
went wes. over the Southern Pacific to-
night, There have been number of
desertions since the regiment started.

CITY COUNCIL NOTES

The rump coancil gave another free
exhibition of assininity last night, by at
tempting to transact business, after it
was expressly stated to them by City
Attorney Carnahan that, they had no
quorum and that the men elected to fill
the places OF Messrs. Starr and McKin-
ney had no lie al rights as councilmen.
This admonition was of no avail how
ever, and they proceeded to the over
lures for the aldermanic circus.
There were four aldermen present,
Ramey, Dickerson, Broemser and Whar
ton. Four councilmen and the may or
being absent.
Alderman Wharton moved that Clerk
Delaplain be notified in calling the roll
to call the name of c. p, MoCary, as an
alderman. This motion prevailed but
Clerk Delaplai acting under the ad-
vice OF the city attorney refused to call
the name Wharton then made another
effort for the clerks recognition OF
Charles P. McCary as member of the
aldermanic body. He moved again that
Mr.. McCary take his seat and that the
clerk be instructed to call his name,
Clerk Delaplain again refused to be
moved by the motion.
Wharton moved That the regular order
of business be suspended and that they
take up anything new that came up.
This wise motion prevailed,
Wharton moved that tn, Geddis &
Seerie Stone company be granted thirty
days extension of time to brig in bond
and contract on sewerage district num-
bers and q The motion prevailed.
Wharton went at it again to get rec
ognition for McCary He moved that
President Ramey call the name of c, p.
McCary as an alderman, Dickerson
offered an amendment that the clerk be
ordered to call the name.
At this point City Attorney Carnahan
rendered verbal opinion as to the legal
ity OR illegality of the council then sit
ting, as legal body, He said that he
did not care now what name the clerk
called, 1t was his opinion backed up by
the very best law that, there was no
quorum present and tnat the Douy tneu
attempting to do business had no legal
right to do anything whatever,
Alderman Dickerson then moved that
Henry kippe be seated as alderman
from the Fourth ward. Broemser nam
ed Charles G. Knowles for the honor
and some one named George o. Blake.
The two gentlemen refused the distin-
guished honor, which the council desir-
ed to invest them with.
This left Henry Kippe as the only
nominee. He received five votes, but
Alderman Ramey voted against him.
The clerk refusing to administer the
oath Of office to Henry Kippe, this duty
was performed by Justice j. P. Sweeney.
At this juncture all citizens present
were given perm ssion to address the
council. Charles Ketchum thought he
would dress down the city clerk and at

been thrown against = mountain tor any
