The ordinances were introduced
at last nights meeting by Council
man Pratt, who deserves com.

course in defense of the peoples
rights in the city council.
The gas inspector ordinance calls
for the creation of gas inspector,
removable by the mayor. His du.
ties are to inspect gas and gas
meters under certain conditions.
These conditions are such as are
necessary to conform to the fran

company and under which it is op,

TOM HART,
BURGLAR
CAPTURED

Tom Hart, a much wanted man
in Spokane and vicinity, was ar
rested last night by Detective
Miles and booked for robbery, be.
ing accused Of strong-arming Luth-
er Dunbar in the Montana saloon
last night.
Hart will answer to this charge
tomorrow and will also answer to
the charge Of robbery of a saloon
at Newport, Wash. about two
weeks ago. He and two other men,
it is supposed by the polise, went
into the Newport saloon and asked
to have a good check cashed and
when the proprietor opened the
safe he was hit on the head and
about $500 taken.
Hart is well known to the police
and has been mixed up in several
different cases in the city. He is
known to be a bad character and
will probably have to serve some
time.

COUNCIL WANTS TO KNOW HOW
THAT $45O, 900 IS BEING SPENT

Just before adjournment Of the
city council last night a barbed
dart was hurled at the mayor by
the members of the city council.
Democrats and republicans seemed
to be equally anxious to get back
of this latest bomb which was
heaved into the mayors camp.
There seems to be a growing dis
trust that everything is not right
with the city water works. Last
night the mayor was called upon
to file report at once upon the
water works expenditures, telling
exactly how much of the $450,OOO
had been expended and for what.
The mayor Is also requested to file
monthly reports from this time on
until the water works is com.
pleted.
This bomb was hurled without
regard to the fact that the mayor
had already stated in a message to
the council earlier in the evening
that he thought it advisable for
that body to appoint an auditing

These fees are to be paid by the
consumer if the gas is up to stand

gas company is cheating the con-
sumner, it must pay the cost. This
provision is in accordance with the
gas company's franchise and can
not be made otherwise.
The gas company is liable to
