NEW COUNCIL BEGINS WORK
Elects Attorney. Policeman and
Street Commissioner

The City Council met in regular
session last Monday night at the
mayors office. The meeting being
the first one held since the induction
of the new administration into office,
quite a number of citizens were at
the city hall to witness the proceed
ingS, some being attracted by curiOS-
iuy and some feeling a special interest
in some officers to he chosen by the
new board: VIZ. A city attorney, an
assistant policeman and a street COM
missioner. After passing on the var
iOuS accounts and discussing briefly
various matters with which they were
TO deal the matter OF electing
an attorney was taken up. But two
men were voted for. The first ballot
showed that Hon. s. A. Morrison re-
ceived six out Of the seven votes cast,
The election of a night policeman
was next considered. Three different
names were presented, that of MesSrs
F. NJ Wright, ID. w. Beck and j. w.
Martin. Mr.. Martin was elected on
the second ballot. Mr.. Martin has
been a resident of Grenada for nearly
two years and has impressed himself
on the community as q good citizen.
He came here from Calhoun county
and was for long while deputy sheriff
in that county where he is said to
have made a bold and fearless officer.
The Sentinel would offer but one
piece of advice along this line to
Grenada'S policemen, that is, for
them not to run their ham strings off
hunting negroes in some secluded
spot, perhaps, playing craps when
there is no doubt big game closer in.
The council then elected street
commissioner, MeSSrs L. c. Dubard
and j. j. Horton being voted for.
Mr.. Dubard was elecyed by vote of
four to three. He has filed the posi-
tion almost conSecutively for the past
half dozen years and is no doubt a
good street man.
The new administration is proceed
ing cautiously and is evincing deter
mlnatiOn to take no steps in regard
t. any matter until it is fully ad-
vSed in the premises.

Great Northern Agent Stewart OF
Wolf Creek reports that the track
from Wolf Creek east as far as he can
see is flooded to depth of three feet
and that for three miles or more it is
completely washed out and in places
overturned, while the rails are twist

roaming waters. Twenty-eight miles
OF track are under water.
IL is figured conservatively that for
at least twenty days no trains can go
over the line and no repair work can
be done until the water between Wolf
Creek and Cascade recedes.
The washing out of this stretch Of
track between Wolf Creek and Cas-
eade will tie up practically the entire
