posed his moton-whch also las perfeet- ly in order. The ordinance went over for two weeks MT. Barbour reminded MT. Heidt that when he (HeidD had objected to the ordinance being put on its second reading he (Barbour) had said that if any alderman objected to It's rassGge he would not insist upon action
 Matter of Record.
 MT Barbour said that this was mat ter of record and that the minutes and reports and testimony of persons at the meeting would prove that he had not only not attempted to railroad" the or dinance through the council. but that he had at every step of the proceedings made in clear that if the ordinance was opposed he would not champion 1t. He had done this for the reason that he wished 10 avoid even the appearance of advocating a measure that affected his business.
 Persons who had attended the council meeting when this incident came up cor roborated MT. Barbour's version of what took place.
 The meeting of the real estate deal CTS then resolved itself Into series Of unmportant motions and speeches, all Of which tended to require lne city 1ohi- cil to send all the real estate men in the city copy of all ordinances introduced in the city council affecting the real es- tate business. A committee of three members was appointed to draw up res olutions requesting the council to do this, and Alderman Barbour was asked to present the resolutions to the city council.
 When this stage had been reached In the meeting. some of those present began 10 leave the room. That's all rot said one of them. "If our people haven't sense enough to be on the alert and keep in touch with what Is going on. they de- serve to be kept in ignorance. Real estate dealers have no more right to expect that copies of ordinances be sent them than the butcher, the baker and the candle stick maker have. l almost wonder now why this meeting was called. The plumb ing ordinance is, and has been, deader than Julius Caesar for a week All this makes me think of the 1rishman who lost his only child, an infant In arms. Accord ing to the custom he held a wake and ln- vited in friends from far and near. They came in large number. crowded his little cabin, looked !n at the windows and thronged the yard. Just before the eere- monies began the bereaved father got up and apologized to his guests for having so large a wake over so small corpse. I think some such apology is due to us by the people who got up this meeting today
 Whereat. there was chorus of "Amens" from the bystanders who heard the story.

 This is not true of the street sweep ing mills.

 But they day is coming when a reckon ing will have to be made. The patience of a Job will wear out sometime.

also others who have offices on this beautifully paved avenue.
 They were raw. and in more than one way. Their throats were raw from the dust, their eyes smarted and their com plexions suffered. Their feelings were ru- fled.
 Commencing early in the evening. just about the hour that business man goes home to tea, these dust mills commenced. They ground out the dust in great clouds. A regiment of cavalry could not have done better. So bad was the nuisance that the citizens were forced to walk down to Twentieth street and around so as to avoid it. Then they held a curb stone mass meeting and vowed vengeance on the street sweeping department. and they claim scalp will be hanging to their belts ere long if this grinding con- tinues.
