The POLL TAX.
Question Comes up Before the
Council fora General Airing
Commissioners Report
LIGHTS MUST Be IMPROVED
Or Steps 10 Revoke Franchise Will
be Taken.

There was something doing al
the council meeting yesterday
The reform spirit seemed to have
entered deep into the minds Of the
city Solons and they took off their
gloves and went after things.
1t came up first over the report
of the street commissioner and
after this had received a general
threshing over, the aldermen turn
ed their attention to the electric
light service and for time it look
ed like the day Of doom for the
franchise owners had come. That
dread day, however, was deferred
for a season. "While the light holds
out to burn, the vilest sim
ner may return" but the Solons
say the lights must burn.
Street Commissioner Chandler
made the following report Oh his
Office since his appointment in
August

Dennis O. Brien chairman Of the
street and alley committee, took up
the report and proceeded to ana
lyze It and then i'll behalf Of the
committee made some extended
remarks. He spoke Of the de-
plorable condition Of the streets
and then said that he was glad for
ali opportunity 10 vindicate him
self and his committee. He held
that the committee was in no wise
to blame for the state Of affairs and
he also relieved the street commis-
sioner from any ceusure. The COM
mittee had repeatedly gone over
the city inspecting streets and alleys
pointing out work TO be done aud
giving directions 10 the commits
sioner. The commissioner had
tried to obey orders and had warn
ed men out to work and when they

ing to law. These warrants had
been turned over to the police
judge but i'll only one case had a
fine been imposed and i'll this in
stance the fine had been remitted.
About ia Of such warrants had
been issued and nothing done
with them Ia this state of affairs
no attention was paid to the warn
ings Of the commissioner. The
blame therefore fell on the police
department, who alone were re-
sponsible for the failure to inforce
the poll tax law.
Alderman Wells followed and
said that he agreed with Mr..
O. Brien. Some one was at fault
and he thought the responsibility
should be located. go after the
guilty man, whether he be alder
man, commissioner, police officer
or whoever he may be. Enforce
the law regardless Of who is
affected by it.
Alderman Burton then spoke.
He stated that he had examined
the docket Of the police Judge and
found only two cases on it against
persons charged with failure to pay
poll tax. One Of these had been
discharged on a promise to pay
and the other had been fined and
the fire RENTED. All the other
warrants had been pigeon-holed.
He wanted to know what autho-
rity the police Judge or any other
officer had for making such dispo-
sition Of cases when warrants were
issued. The law imposed fine
and it should be enforced.
Chief of Police Smith said that
Mr. Gunnels could give the coun-
ell some light OIL the subject and
the latter was summoned. Mr..
Gunnels came with bunch Of
warrants upon which no arrests
had been made. He stated that
By direction Of lie city attorney
and police judge he had taken
these warrants and instead Of max
ing arrests had endeavored to col
lect the taxes. He had spent
about a month working with them.
He went over each warrant in de-
tail and showed that in some in
stances the parties were exempt
from poll tax by being over age or
under age, in other instances had
paid in other towns and had re-
ceipts, i'll others had paid TO the
former street commissioner, etc.
Out Of the entire number he had
collected from ~.
After some futher discussion
a motion was passed that the city
attorney proceed against those re-
sponsible for the failure to enforce
the poll tax law.
A letter was read from +. P.
Holmes Of the electric light COM
pany announcing that the com.
pany had secured new manager
and had ordered material and
mschinery for improvements and
hoped to have the new street
lights in operation by Feb. IS.
This brought up the entire
matter Of the light service. Mr..
Donovan made a motion that steps
be taken to rescind the last con-
tract for additional lights made
with the company. This motion
met with favor from most of the
members, but Mr.. O. Brien thought
that such action not advisable at
the present time although he had
the contract originally.
He was in favor, however, of Civ
ing the company notice that unless
the light service was made salts
factory by Feb. / action would be
taken to revoke the entire franchise.
A motion to this effect was passed.
Other minor matters came up.
Present at the meeting were Bur-
