Supervisor Eli Aylett was back on
the JOB last night and his strenuous
no" on several questions. and failure
to concur on certain reports of his

been a dull meeting OF the city faith
ers.
At the last meeting of the Board,
Logan presented resolution asking
the County Clerk to write Aylett for
an explanation of his continued alb,
scnce from the meetings Of the Board.
This letter had the effect of bringing
Aylett to the fore and at last nights
meeting there was a full attendance.
Since Bits absence the meetings of
the Board have been progressing
smoothly and business carried
through quickly; last night, however.
II was different and Aylett was on the
job all the time.

routine nature all through, two tax
payers addressing the members of the
Board Just before adjournment, one
on the need of fixing 9Th Avenue. Kali
muki, and the other on the need of

1t was on the splitting ordinance
that the most discussion was raised
and although 1t finally passed second
reading with the fine changed TO from
one to ten dollars instead of 5000 for
each offense, Aylett voted against It.
The ordinance had been p1geonholed
since April 10 last. the meeting last
night being the first time 1t has seen
the light since that time.
