TO ENFORCE THE
HEALTH ORDINANCE

The enforcement of the health ordi-
nance to the letter, Or their repeal
seemed to be the sense of those pre-
sent at the meeting of the committee on
health and police, together with the
acting health officer, following the reg
ular meeting of the council last night
and accordingly the health officer will
Immediately take steps whereby the
expectoration ordinance will be placed
in rigid enforcement, and the whole
sale distribution of disease germs on
the walks and floors of public build
ings of the. city prevented. The ses-
sion of the health committee was "on
the quiet" but it has been learned to-
day that many matters of grave impor-
tance were brought up and discussed
and that the health officer was given
full power and authority, backed by the
council. to enforce every ordinance
tending to maintain the health of the
community.
Beside the expectoration ordinance,
the law providing for the monthly in
spection of milk, and the ordinance
prescribing the inspection of the pub
lie SCHOOLS by the health officer are
also to come again into the spoE-
light. The expectoration ordinance
has been spasmodically enforced since
it's passage several years ago, though
but few arrests have been made in
accordance with it's provisions. A
fine of 81 is provided for those who
violate it's terms, and the acting health
officer will now try his hand at the
game.

teams of II rifemen, from the infan-

The principal change in the rules to
govern the match was one, by which,
on basis of the position of the 30

IS separated into three divisions. The

GETTING DOWN
TO BRASS TACKS

ct believe we should license every
business establishment in tine city;
then within two years we would be
cut Of debt That might not he pro-
per- but I believe it would be right
Such was the sentiment expressed by
Councilman Fred S. Hull last night,
following the discussion introduced
by Councilman john Stack, as to
whether an injustice were not being
done the laundries in forcing them to
pay a quarterly license of $40, when
their competitors are running wagons
on the streets without such a tax.
Councilman Stack took occasion to
state that the mayor had not request
ed him to introduce the subject, and
in proof of his statement, Mayor Tau
sick said he believed the tax was a
good thing; that he had been paying it
for 10 years and had not felt severe
effects of the financial outlay. He
said he favored the laundry license,
but thought others might be similar
ly treated.
The judiciary committee was given
charge of the question, and it is pro-
bable that if the findings are that the
laundries are being Disseminated
against, the license will either be re-
voked, or others will be prescribed.

MORE TROUBLE
FROM BILLBOARDS

esWell, maybe they are" was the
somewhat doubtful rejoinder of A.
Moser last night, after he had been
reprimanded by Mayor Eugene Tausick
for taking a fling at the councilmen.
Mr.. Moser appeared to make talk
against the new bill board ordinance,
which was up for consideration, and In
the course of his remarks, saw flt to

new ordinance mad been drawn up
and introduced with the express pur-
nose of favoring a certain man, a

the insinuations, and requested Mr..
Moser to confine his talk to the ordi-

were acting in good faith.

Mayor Eugene Tausick some time
ago received a letter from the ex-
position officials, asking that some ac-
Ton be taken here toward setting a

referred to the Commercial club pri-
Nately. AS no action was taken the

anti-saloon people are working Just as

Il am glad to say that the Walla
Wlalla delegation is standing squarely
with us, where a year ago they were
a unit against us. Most of the legis-
