WEED ORDINANCE
MUST BE DONE WITH
PROPER CAUTION.
Htchine, Bicycle and Expectorating
Ordinances are Also Hard
to Enforce.

Judge W. l.. Toney says that the
war on weeds and high grass has in
no way been abandoned but he is going
to keep it up until the streets of the
city are clean.
There are many ordinances on the
statute books of the city that if rig
idly enforced would work hardship
on many good citizens" said the
Judge, land we are compelled to move
with caution. For instance the law
says that grass is not to be allowed
to grow on the sidewalk at all, yet
In r,ny cases that have come under
lay observation the grass lends
beauty to the sidewalk rather than
proving an obstruction. Where it is
kept nicely mown see no objection to
it. The trouble is when 1t is allowed
to grow high and lap over the walk.
Last week Chief Peterson and l got
horses and rode over the principal
streets of the city. In many places
We found the grass as high as the
knee, and it was utterly impossible
to pass along the walk without brush
ing against the grass. In rainy wealth
