 Measure Discussed

Anniston January 26.-(special)-Th
 city council last night accepted the res
 isnation of c. J. Settles, councilman from
 the Third ward, and unanimously elect
 ed C. F. Pauley to succeed him. Mir.
 Pauley has had previous experience as
 a councilman and his election to the
 vacancy will likely meet with general ap-
 probtion. MT. Settles explained that it
 was necessary for him to resign as he
 has been transferred to Birmingham and
 will move his family to that city. He is
 an engineer on the Southern road and
 is now running between Birmingham and
 Atlanta
 The new meat and milk inspection ordi-
 nance again came up for consideration
 and was the subject of long debate, fol-
 lowing which Councilmen Sawyer, Boozer and Pruett were appointed as a com
 mittee to make comprehensive study
 of the needs of the city and draft an
 ordinance accordingly. Ross Blackmon
 spoke against the proposed ordinance as
 representative of butchers in the city and
 L. F. Greer spoke against it from the
 viewpoint of farmers. Mayor Scarb rough
 took exceptions to some of MT. Greer's
 remarks saying that the city did not intend to try to make laws for the farmers, but the council would try to
 make sanitary laws for the residents of the city and the farmers who do business in the city must conform to these laws. In this view of the matter the mayor was supported by lawyers present.
