q. Prince was presiding and all add
ermen present with the exception of
a. l.. Rogers, who is spending va
cation in west Texas. Immediately
after roll call aud reading OF min

tary inspector and prescribing his
duties, also prescribing the duties of
property owners with reference to
sanitation along with penalties for
failure to comply with said ordi-
nance. which was read and referred
to the ordinance committee.
The question OF reducing water

water rate. but owing to financial
conditions just now and the need of
extensions Of mains, 1t was thought

siderable reduction al this particu-
