MEMBERS OF COUNCIL
 OBJECT TO STEALING
Stewards Intellectual Leaders Had Another Meeting Last
 Evening.

At the city council last night MT. Young and Mir. Chamberlain protested against squandering the funds of the city but their protest passed by un- needed. The protest came when a bill for printing was presented and when the two councilmen named stated that the Gateway would have saved money for the taxpayers by do- ing the same work. The bill was for eighty dollars odd and Mr. Young and Mir. Chamberlain reminded the coun- cil that the price at which the Gate way offered to do such work would be only about a quarter of that amount. But, needless to say, the other members did not refuse the extra money. Indeed one member of the council this morning suggested that the holding of the meeting at the unusual date, which was the first of the month, was for the purpose of grabbing a little ready money for something or another.
