An ordinance defining the duties
of the city scavenger, prescribing his
fees, eGc.. was laid over on account
of the absence of Dr. Kinsinger, the
author, some parts of the ordinance
requiring explanation.
The ordinance petitioned for by
draymen, licensing drays, was taken
in five ayes and three noes. Mayor
Stockard thought the council made a
mistake in refusing money that came
in as easy as this-that if the ordi-
nance should prove bad as similar
one had once before, it could easily
be repealed.
Then came the report of the fin
ance committee on bids for city
printing Messrs Stone and Wiseley
in the majority report recommended
that the contract be awarded to the
Register-Tribune, the Republican or
gan's bid being considered the low
est. Mr.. Johnson submitted a minori-
L,
much as the bids were practically the
same that none of them be accepted
and that the City printing in future
be let by private contract wherever
the best terms could be secured
when the work was needed. The re-
ports were voted on separately neith-
er of them securing the necessary
majority and the printing matter
stands just as it did before. The
vote was four to four in both cases,
Bell. Jump. Stone and Wiseley voting
in favor of the RegisterTribune bid.
and Burrus, Church, Wyllys and John
son voting for the minority report.
Mayor StOckard started to make
some remarks about the printing pro-
position, and got as far as the state
ment that two mistakes had been
made. the first being in asking for
bids at all-then he was interrupted
by an explosion of fireworks and did
not have an opportunity to finish his
talk.
All bills approved by the finance
committee were allowed, and after
hearing the report of the City Physi-
clan and referring the matter of en-
ploying driver Tor the fire engine
10 the chief the council adjourned
few minutes before midnight.

for the members of the Arizona press
TO meet with our neighbors of the

that the New Mexico editor is just
like all other newspaper men, the
ritory. Few of them are appreciated
as much as should be, and altogeth-

Then the editors of the press OF

would be an important step in get

better for there is going to be a un-

on to introduce the families of the
two geographical divisions, and get
them acquainted with each other
The coming together of the repre-

The Fourth Quiet One Here.

Outside of the various social attrac-
tions, mentioned elsewhere in this
issue, there was little doing" in
Roswell on the Fourth of July. There
were many private picnics that could
not be mentioned. These took great
numbers out of town and the cele-
bration at Carlsbad drew another big
delegation. This left only the peace
loving portion of the population at
nome-and they had their hearts de-
sire.
