FIREM EN MEET.
They Start Off the New Year Right
 With Good Resolutions.

There was an important meeting of the fire department Tuesday evening The members of the department de- cided among themselves that the new year would be started off in a proper manner so far as the department is concerned and within the next twelve months 1t is aimed to give more at tention to drills and long before the expiration of that time it is expected that the town will have a fire depart ment that is a fire department in every sense of the word, one that will be competent to fight fire at any time it may be called upon to do so and will in every way be credit to the town.
 The year will be started with a new rooster of members. Certain ones, who were formerly members of the de- partment have been dropped for non- attendance at meetings and hereafter every member who does not attend at least SO per cent of the meetings of the year will be suspended without honor.
 Before the close of the meeting. Christ Chris Sigala appointed the fol- towing officers: s. N. Lukin, assistant chief; Ramon ValenZuela, foreman company No. 1; F. H. Spain. foreman company No. 2. All the officers as well as the members are taking an active interest in the welfare of the depart ment and are doing what they can to help a good cause.

which siss5 was city tax collected to date. Ordinance No. 30. granting cold storage franchise to the Mesa Ice and Cold Storage Co. was passed. A res olution was passed for the mayor to sign lease to the trustees of the high school for the east half of block 20 for high school purposes. A petition from property holders of blocks No. il and 6 asking that the curb and gutters be extended in front of their property was presented and granted. The resignation of Phil Nets as mayor and councilman was accepted and J.. D. Loper was appointed in his stead. The action of the council requiring the marshal to see that the saloon men live up to ordinance No. 8 has had the effect of seemingly closing the restaurants in the rear of the saloons. The ordinance provides that it Is a misdemeanor to be or to have inside of any saloon. tippling house. sample room or barroOm or any room or rooms adjacent thereto or connected herewith. any chairs. tables. benches or other devices for seating any per- son or persons. The restaurants are all located in saloon buildings in rooms adjacent to the bar room" and 1t seems that the only way in which they can run restaurants or lunch counters in rooms located thus is to remove all tables and chairs and re- quire the people to "eat standing" The restaurant people took this mat ter up with the council yesterday after the instruction was given, and they were given until Saturday night to adjust their restaurants in accordance with the ordinance or close the eating part or stand to eat.
