Did you read the three new ordi-
nances published in The Record yes
terday. All three ordinances have
the general approval of public opin-
ion. One prohibits music in or in
front of saloons and like places of
resort; another extends the fire linn
it's; and the third prohibits the FIR
ing of guns, pistols or explosives Of
any kind as a fire alarm. This last
ordinance is particularly commend
able. The method heretofore exist
ing Of giving a fire alarm by firing
guns and pistols is a primitive one,
having come in vogue in the early
days when it served it's purpose. Now
it is well to relegate it and let it
join the troubadour and moundbuild-

over year ago little illustrated
eight.page folder answering about
every question about the county aud

Closely upon this folder followed the
handsome little booklet, Greeley

office was unable TO keep up with the
orders. There was still a great call
for the little folders, and a few
weeks ago an entirely new edition
with all the figures brought up to
date was issued, five thousand copies
being ordered in advance.

was done four years ago there was no
regular grade established, because It
was believed that it was the only
street that would e'er be improved.
1t was then the leading thoroughfare
to the Normal school. and was the
Fifth avenue OF Greeley. The wise
council men who four years ago pre-
dicted that this would be the only
graded street in the city now LOOK
with awe upon the Improvements
