Alderman LaFond moved that the
reduction ordinance be- withdrawn
but he was informed that this could
not be done and that it would be ne

this effect was drawn up by City At

Alderman LaFond and given its first
reading. All voted for it except Bell,
who voted against it. The ordinance
must therefore be brought up at an
other meeting for its second reading.

MINNESOTA PUBLIC HEALTH AS
ISOLATION
(AdVisOry Commission

\11OF4oO1y
The state advisory commission Of
the Minnesota Sanatorium for Con-
sumptives says that Morrison county
is holding back the establishment OF
county sanatoria by Todd and Wa
dena counties through our delay in
making an appropriation. The coun-
ty commissioners of Todd and Wadena
are enthusiastic over the project and
say it will mean much to this section
Of the state to have a place where
tuberculosis cases may be isolated and
cared for.
The death rate from tuberculosis in
this county during the past five years
has been very heavy says the advisory
commission, and we now have many
openly infectious cases and many NOR.
incipient cases which will be a
menace to the community within a
short time unless they are cared for.
If the advisory commission is sue.
cessful in it's legislative campaign an
appropriation of $4,000 will be made
for anti-tuberculosis work in this state
during the next two years. This will
provide for state aid Of $500 per week
per patient for the counties which
have sanatoria, and will enable the
state to pay one-half the initial cost
Of site, building and equipment.
Morrison county should have its
share of this appropriation. We hope
our legislators will support it and pass
the amendments which are being made
to the law to make the work easier
and more effective. This county should
take action quickly and not delay the
armoring Of the state against the in
vasion of tuberculosis, which is
acknowledged to be the most devast
ing plague which can attack com
munity.

The city council held an adjourned
meeting at the city hall Friday eve
ming for the purpose Of taking some
action in regard to the Firemen's Re

Before the truck proposition was
taken up the board Of public
works reported to the council that
they had investigated the ACCESSIBILITY

these figures being given by the city
engineer.
The Little Falls Water Power COM

LIQUOR OVER N. P. AT SHIPPER S
RISK ONLY

The Northern Pacific Railway COM
pany has announced that hereafter no
liquor will be shipped over that line
into any territory affected by the SUI
preme court decision in regard to the
1855 Indian treaty, except at the
shippers risk. The reason for this
action, it is said, is that under the
law the agents have the right to con-
fscate and destroy liquor wherever
they find it, and need give no previous
notice.

from the bonding company Of the Co.
lumbus Gas Construction company for
that company's failure to comply with
the requirements of their gas fran
chise. The matter vas brought up by
Alderman Geo. Peterson, who urged
that it be settled before the old coun-
Gil goes out of existence.
Lastly, the truck proposition was
taken up. The result was that the
council voted to accept the truck and
an ordinance repeating the ordinance
recently passed, cutting down the fire
department., given its first reading.
F. w. Lyon, of the Relief association
gave a short talk in regard to the truck
offer, and said that the association
was making the offer to the city in
good faith and wanted the council to
accept it, and that no truck would be
purchased that would not be satisfac-
tory to the council. Mr.. Lyon also
brought up the matter of recognizing
the fire companies and stated that in
his opinion it would not be we'll to
make any changes IN the department
at the present time, (meaning that
the ten-men company ordinance be re-
pealed), and asked for a vote on the
matter among the fremen, goodly
number being present. Chief Emder
said that it was up to the council to
decide what was best for the city.
Chairman Hall ruled that the vote was
in order and Mr.. Lyon called for a ris-
ing vote on the question. AS the mo-
ton was put, the fremen really voted
