Stole Harness.
Tuesday night a hole waB cut in
the root of Joe Koddy'a stable and
by means of a wire a set of harness
was drawn up through the Hole ana
earned a way. About 7:30 the
following-morning while B. L. Rob
inson and Mr. Roddy were stand
ing at the railroad crossing at
Field's lumber yard a fellow drove
by wltti a single horse attached to
acart. Roddy at once recognized
the harness on the horse as the one
stolen and hailed the man, as did
also Robinson. Instead of stop
ping, however, the fellow put the
lash to the horBe and drove soutn.
At the time one of the Gaunt boyB
was hitching up a team at tlie
lumber yatd. and being informed'of
the thett, mounted one of tlie horses
ntid took after the thiet. He over
took him at the bridge, where the
fellow nave up the harness to
Gaunt, and then started on south,
riding the horse and pulling the
cart. Sheriff Kehbcr waB then
notified and Deputy Ledgerwood
sent after the thief but he-failed to
find any traces ot him

Special Elootlon to ho Hold,
At a meeting of the city council
Tuesday evening a petition, which
bad beeu circulated by James Bel
ton, was presented asking tuat an
election be called to vote on the
proposition to accept the initiative
and referendum measure passed by
the legislature three years ago.
This law, which is optional with a
city whether it adopts it or not.
provides that when an ordinance is
I passed by a city council it is held
in abeyance for thirty, days ana
during that time the citizens can if
they so desire, petition the council,
to call an election to vote as 1o
whether the ordinance shall be
come a part of the law of the city.
If, at the election the ordinance re
ceives the necessary majority it
stands, if not it is null and void
While tlie law re'ates to all ordi
nances which a city council may
oaes, the purpose ot tue meas
arc is to prevent councils irom
eivinir away valuable franchises or
privileges without the consent of
citizens. The lav, we understand,
has not as yet been adopted by a
sniffle city in the state. The city
clerk will proceed to call a special
election which will cost the tax
payers Irom one to two hundred
dollars and when the proposition
is before the people more informa-
I tion on the matter will be given in
these columns.
