Two Ordinances Passed.

AT the meeting of the council Mon
day evening two ordina nces were
adopted. The ordinance relating to
fire protection was enacted substanti-
ally as printed in the Graphic two
weeks ago and no exception was made
in case of the Methodist church, not
withstanding the objections of the
Mercury. This ordinance is perhaps
not perfect, but it is a step in the
right direction, and all right-minded
individuals will admit it. The ordi-
nance will be in force after its publi-
cation this week. If strictly enforced
it will close the opera house until ad,
ditional exits are supplied, the Con-
gregational church will not be allow
ed to open until the doors are made
to swing outward, and the Meth dist
church will be closed until additional
exits are supplied. The chances are
that the matter will be allowed to
stand as it is until there has been time
to comply with the ordinance.
The second ordinance related to
keeping hogs and cattle within the
city limits and is very stringent No
more than one COW or two pigs can be
kept unless within barn.
