After the roll call, which was an
swered by Root and Carbon, and the
reading of the minutes of the pre-
yious evenings business by J. +.
Miles, who is acting as city clerk
in the absence of F. ID. Oidfield. reg
ular order of business was taken up.
The first reading of ordinances be-
ing called for. paving ordinance was
brought forth. This segregates dis
trict one and provides for paving,
curbing and guttering with con-
crete. The cost of this work is to
be charged to property owners ac-
cording to frontage, but exempts the
city from participating in the ex-

Mr.. Terrell made a short talk on
new rulings by the Electric Light
Co. on meter and repair deposits.
This was referred to the city attor-
ney.
c. A. Eddy asked that Fourth ave-
nue. between Murry and Mill streets
be repaired. as Murry creek has
washed out the banks and caused a

Passed on second reading also was
the ordinance creating sewer dis
tricts and authorizing sewering of
the town. The ordinance was re-
ferred to the city engineer in order
that he might certify references to
descriptions of property contained
In it.
Carbon offered a resolution return

the fines assessed against them for
violation of the city ordinances on
sanitation. This was passed.
Root suggested that as things were
quiet at present it might be well to
dispense with the services of one
city officer. Action was deferred un,
til next meeting in order that the
city marshal might be conferred with
Butler then presented the demand OF
the sheriff for fees as janitor of the

The sheriff's Office is hot and

suit of the campaign being conduct
ed by Deputy Sheriff A. J. Butler.
Root Brothers billiard hall was last
evening attached, after payment Of

have been allowed to run without
payment of county license. A list of
these was made out a few days since,
together with business houses which
had been paying regularly and the
collection started. On presenting the
license to Frank NJ. Root, one of tho
proprietors of the billiard hall, last
evening, Butler was met by refusal,
Root declaring that he never had
paid before and saw no reason for
paying at this time.
Butler again made demand. he

Under the state law the sheriff or
his representative has perfect
right to prosecute every person con-
ducting taxable business without
license. While it is not the inten-
ton of the collector to do so unless
forced to, Butler declares that habit
nor custom can be construed as
establishing more than a precedent
and has nothing to do with the legal
ity of the question. He will there
fore enforce payment, pleasantly II
possible, and in other manner IL

flights be placed on all paved alleys. 1 This received instant approval and was carried without debate. An ordi- nance to prevent roller skating on ! iect was referred to the city engineer. lwho applied scientific reason which allowed the young skaters their hap 'py privilege of using the sidewalks in : their fayorite pastime.
 An ordinance was introduced to reg ulate the sweeping of sidewalks in the morning hours. It seems to be the very disagreeable habit of a good many storekeepers to use the broom very energetically during tn time that people are forced to pass the down. town district on their way to work. This custom is bad one for san itary reasons alone, and the council in passing an ordinance making it mis- demeanor to sweep the sidewalks in front of their stores after the hours of 6:3O a. m. and punishable by fine if the ordinance is disregardel, did a good thing.
 A Needed Ordinance.
 A very good ordinance and one of the best introduced during the session was promoted by City Attorney w. B.. Sorrells in behalf of the merchants. + has heretofore been the common practice of fakirs and travelling mer- chants to unload their wares at hotels and ,ooming houses and invite the trade to deal with them without ever paying the city one cent for the priv ilege. It should not only be discour- aged for this fact alone. but in con- sideration to the established city mer- chant who contributes money 10 the city in the form of taxes and interests himself in it's welfare and prosperity. Mr. Sorrells is to be commended for lis efforts to suppress this evil. II not only contributes to the sacrifice of righteous commerce. but exposes the people to a crowd of grafters. The penalty prescribed is $23 min imum fine to $500 maximum.
 debate arose as to when an or dinance takes effect after it had been passed upon in the councl chamber or when it appeared in print ed form. It was finally agreed upon that it became law just as soon as the second was made in the council chamber.
