Notwithstanding thu fact that there is nn ordinance punishing the small boy for steal ing rides on the cars they make it a dally practice and avoid the rallioad men's and the pollccnit-n'K vigilance.

Hu wanted It signed by the ma > or and not by thn piesl- dent ot the council. President lieehi-1 staled ho prelened to have thu mayor sign the con- tiact. Mi. Goodman was afraid , ho said , that President Points , or tlio school board , would not sign the vvaiiant.s. The school boaid might act as they did about thu patio ! wagon pm chase. Mr. Dallev raised the further objection that them had not been competition enough In the bids. Then , too , he said , theiu was no assurance that the legislature would take any action by which thocitvvvould bo mithor- l/ed to issue bonds for the completion of thowoik. This was ono of the major's ob- lections. Mr. Schroeder did not think thcio would bo any trouble In getting the necessaiy action tlnouirh the legislature.
