gated iron building adjoining the
Trimble stables. also frame buildings,
hut which were erected before the fire
limit ordinance went into effect. The
proposed building violated all the
terms of the present ordinance call
ing for fire proof construction and the
fact that it is to be used for storing
innammable material. principally hay,
makes il especially dangerous.
The protest follows:
Albuquerque. y. NJ, July ). 1903
Honorable Felix II. Lester.
Mayor. etc. City.
Dear Sir: We, the undersigned.
members of the city council. desire
to enter a protest against the action
OF thu city building Inspector in grant
! ing a license to erect a corrugated iron
sefd within the fire limits. the said
shcd icing for the purpose of storing
hay. and is directly against a wooden
structure occupied as a stable
We base our protest on the follow
ing grounds.
lst-That il is in direct violation Of
See. 15e OF the Complied ordinances.
2nd-That being an open shed it is
thereby more liable TO have fires occur
and is a menace to the surrounding
property.
Srd-rhis license was granted upon
the written endorsement Of five mem
beers of the city council and we claim
that in matters of this kind where q
deliberate violation of the ordinances
requested aud =. anted. tina all such
matter should come before the coun-
ell In open seSston and be there dis
cussed as t. the sdvisability of grant
ing such PERMISSION.
II is absolutely useless. in our optn-
zen, to make laws for the government
of this city If a majority of the coun-
cilmen are permitted to set these laws
aside for the special benefit OF one or
two people. II affords an opportunity
for a special legislation which We 10
not believe is to the best interests of
the city. II a law is a bad one repeal
II. but II II is a good one enforce H..
And in the matter of fire protection
this is "a ease that deliberately violates
an law and opens an opportunity for
serious and disastrous conditions.
We therefore ASK that the permit
granted bc rescinded and that here
after the ordinances OF the city be
strictly adhered to.
Respectfully suhmitted.-S. Cocn.
T. Hanley J. II Wroth,
Speaking upon the protest Adler
man Nroth entered a vigorous protest
against thc setting aside OF city or
anCtS ior the benefit of individuals.
He demanded that the city's laws he
either enforced or thrown aside as Of
no use and declared thai in taking
any other course the council was max
ing itself a laughing stock among the
people. He then moved that IT he the
sense az the council that all building
ordinances bs rigidly enforced This
motion was carried without objection.
but when she alderman moved that

RAILROADS AID EXHIBITORS.
Easy Facilities and Direct Home Drip
nents Are Granted 20 CattIemen
and Others Who Are Coming
to Michigan State Fair.

The Michigan freight commmttee,
representing the different railroads
doing business throughout the state,
have recommended new rules govern
ing the shipping of exhibits TO the
Michigan Fair that will greatly IA
cilitate stock raisers and every one
else who plan to contest for pre-
miums.
Under the proposed rules exhib-
itors are allowed 10 ship TO the
first fair, paying full charges
one way, then to the next fair
and receive credit for half the money
paid After he has made his circuit
of the fairs. he may ship by the near
est route home. paying only half rates.
Heretofore exhibitors have been com
PEELED TO pay full rates one way and
then return free, providing they re-
turned over the route from whence
they started. which was usually incon-
venient and consumed considerable
extra time According TO the new
plan they will pay half fare each way
and return home by the nearest route.
These proposed rules are due large
" to the efforts of l. II. Butterfeld,
secretary of the Michigan State Fair,
who first suggested the plan in an eff
fort to save the delay and expense of
exhibitors. The scheme no doubt will
largely increase the exhibits at the
fair I'm Detroit, which when IL opens
on Sept. 2, will be one of the largest
of the kind ever held in the State of
Michigan.
