At the last meeting of Nc

At the last meeting of Nc
Cormick's board Of county COM
missioners, a contract was made
with Walker Bros. & Hardy for
furnishing election supplies for
TIE coming election at SIPS. In
1900 Mr.. Mccormick allowed a
bill of $415.70sby this same firm
for the same work, or for less
work, as the number of ballots
required then was not so great
as will be necessary at the COM
ing election. In 1902 the same
firm put in a bill of 1928. 05 for
election supplies and Mr.. Nc
Gormick allowed it to be paid.
In 1904 the bill was $685. Is for

without a murmer. How is Mr..
McC ormick going to explain to
his constituents that he allowed

the Hon. James a real watch dog

TO REGULATE BANKERS.
Police Ordnance Adopted to Prohibit
Sidewalk Solicitation by Merchants.

Woe is the barker" Not the bowling
canine, though he. she, too, may some
times come under the ban of the law but
the barker" specified as a human" at a
recent hearing before the Commissioners, is
slated to go.
Attorney Alexander Wolf. representing a
number of 7th street merchants, made a
strong fight in favor of more drastic regu-
lation Of "barkers," and at q hearing be-
fore the Commissioners he related many in
stances of customers being literally hauled
away bodily from the doors of more repu-
table stores by those he styled as 'unscru-
pulous competitors" On D street between
9th and 7th streets, too, Mr.. Wolf cited
cases of Barking that were far from
pleasant to the victims. Before the hear
Ing the matter was referred to the corpora
ton counsel and he stated his belief that
the "barkers" could be prosecuted for as
sault and for disorderly conduct under ex-
listing regulations. but after the hearing Mr.
Thomas and Mr.. Wolf were in conference
with Commissioner West and 1t was agreed
that specific barker regulation should
be prepared and passed upon by the Com
drafted and fully approved. and today it
was promulgated in the form of an official
order as follows:

lice regulations of the District of Columbia
