THE CRY cHARTER-THE LAW.

Last night the City Council met in a
called session to consider proposed ap-
preparation for the firemen's conven-
ton and parade next month. Only
nine members were present, but an APP
preparation Of $500 was made, as re-
quested Without commenting upon
the merits OF this appropriation-and
it will be conceded that had twelve
members been present the measure
would probably have received that
number of vOtes-yet that in no way
minimizes the importance Of proceed
ing correctly Chapter 800, acts OF
the assembly of Virginia, 1902-O3-O4,
page 424, section 1893 c., in the sec
ond paragraph, among other things, as
to the government of cities, towns, etc,
refers to the appropriation OF money
exceeding one hundred dollars, stating
the manner in which it must be done
concludes as follows Nothing con-
tanned in this section shall operate to
repeal or amend any provision in any
existing city charter requiring two
third vote for the passage of an ordi-
nance as to the appropriation OF
money" What does the charter say?
This Section No bill or act
creating a new law, amending or alter
ing an existing law shall be passed at
the same session on which it is pre-
scented, unless it shall receive the votes
OF three-fourths Of the members OF
each branch of the City Council. "
This in~ itself shows that while nine
members was quorum, yet that
number was not sufficient to pass
an act. This is not all, for there
is state law that reads as
follows-One that few, if any, mem
bers OF Council present had apparently
read, for in the act referred to above,
chapter 900, page All, acts 19O2-O3-O4,
section 10l5h, caption, Rules as to
quorums and the passage Of certain
ordinances, " says No vote shall
be reconsdered or rescinded at any
special meeting, unless at such special
meeting there be present as large a num-
Der of members as were present when
such vote was taken" SO If fourteen
members were present when the Came
ron, King, Henry and Fayette alley
sewer was ordered and appropriation
made, then that number was necessary
last night.

BIG CROPS GROWN
IN CACHE COUNTY
Dry Farms Harvesting 43 Bush.
els Wheat per Acre DeS-
pite Drouth.

That never.failing Cache is right In
the prime of condition is being demon
strated this year as never before. says
the Logan Republican. Succeeding the
great fear Of drouth expressed this
spring is the conclusive proof Of bounte-
Gus yields shown in the harvests now
going on throughout the country,
George c, Righy. who has dry farm
between Newton and Charleston. reports
that his summer fallowed land averaged
this year forty-one bushels OF wheat to
the acre. This in spite Of the drouth.
OF second season land he obtained an
average OF 2G.5 bushels. So on three
land that he fallows every third year.
he obtains an average OF 1873 bushels OF
wheat,
Nor Is Mr.. Rigby alone in gathering this
big yield. John Griffen has gotten thirty
six bushels of his land by following the
land is also situated on the west side,
near Charleston. Amos Clarke goes ahead
of Mr. Rigby and Mr.. Griffen by harvest
ing forty three bushels per acre. In fact.
for the whole west side, where proper
following has been done. the average
yield will be close TO forty bushels
This is splendid record, thinks the
farmer. And everybody else follows the
farmers thinking, too. Dry farming will
get a tremendous impetus In Cache VAL
ley by this thinking, Here is a land
with enough water for irriga tion even
in the driest season, and system Of dry
farming perfected that Yields an aver
wheat 10 the acre. Cache valley assumes
a big place in agriculture In Utah. Nc
other county can show better results, and
few, II any, can equal her.
