WANTS LAW ENFORCED.
But Alderman Thomas Seeks to Have
the Measure Repealed.

The petition of the Domestic Coal
and Wood Company. asking Council
to see that the laws governing the
sale of coal in Savannah be enforced.
was read last night Afterwards AL
derman Thomas introduced an ordi-
nance to repeal paragraphs AIS. ASS. 4Ss.
400 and 1873 of MacDonelrs Code which
are the ones which the Domestic Com
pany asks Council to see are enforced.
In the petition the representative OF
the coal company gives it as his opin-
ion that the law is a good one. The
paper was referred to the Committee
on Finance for investigation. The law
which the coal company thinks is a
good thing and which Alderman
Thomas wants repealed is found in
MacDonel's Code. 1t provides that
coal shall be sold by weight: that
platform scales be erected by the city:
that a weigher of coal be appointed
and required TO give bond. and that
II a coal wagon is altered II must le
re-stamped. Paragraph 400 provides
for the penalty where coal OF wood is
sold without being weighed or meas
ured.

SchwarZ stated: up to July /, $685.
643.35 had been collected and turned
over to the tax collector of this coun-

collector. / also have corrected,
Strengthened out and marked error 800
executions. 1 understand that the law

compensate me for such work. / re-
spectfully ask your honorable body for
reasonable compensation for what l
have done, and. as there are about 800
more execution to be collected and
Strengthened would like you to pro-
vide for the whole"
The sheriff says the work of straight
ening out the tax executions has in
volved much labor and patience. Some
of the executions are Of long standing,
covering a period of many years. They
are against property of which there
have been many changes in ownership.
Nothing was done by the commits
sioners at yesterdays meeting. Chair
man Dale stated that the matter would
be taken up in the future and that the
board would then decide what course
shall be pursued and what, If any,
compensation the sheriff shall receive.

1t is provided that the clerk or depu-
ty clerk of the market shall weigh the

The local Board of Trade organized
here Friday evening, no doubt will
meet with success, as the present mem
bers seem to be enthused, and will try
to get new members, and all will work
in harmony, and produce some good re-
suits for this city. The people also
seem to endorse such an organization,
and with a proper and combined effort.
the result will be a satisfactory one.
One member stated yesterday that one
of the lacking qualities of the people OF
this city was that they took no pride in
their city, and were most reluctant in
speaking well of one of the coming
manufacturing cities of the valley. His
advice was get more pride and always
be ready to boost your home town.

Buy Union Products.

To the Editor of the Register.
Sir:-I would like to have space in
your Sunday paper to ask a few ques-
tons. In the first place Wheeling is
a strong union city. All kinds of labor
Is organized, and these same ~organiza-
lions meet in their halls and talk over
union labor and they ask the public to
p~atronize home industry. Now the
questions l want to ask are:
When you leave your halls and en-
ter a store, do you eve stop and think
if you are doing what your ~organiza-
ton wishes the public to do by you?
Are you p%atronizing your fellow
American, and home industry, or are
your indirectly sending your money to
some other country?
Do you ever stop to consider this?
Do you know we have business men
in Wheeling who make their money
here and they spend 1t here? believe
in helping our own people.
MEMBER OF UNION.
