| The summary intimation given by County
' > Attorney Balflrigc that tiniest the council
, acted at once he would begin criminal pro

prietors of the machines was the Immediate
Incentive that spurred the council to this

a - \ Igorous protest against the slot machines
Irom the more respectable elcmeot of the
community An ordinance icpeallng the first

' pending for three months. E\cry time it
j was reported by the committee on judiciary
It was recommitted to the committee without
debate and by an apparent undcrstandlnj
between a mnjoritj of sne members of the
' council The expressed reason for this
1 acdon was the fact that the proceeds of the
i licensee had been turni'd over -to the school
fund , and that it ttii' ordinance was repealed
I Ihe city would have to relund the license
money from the general lund On this plea
j every effort to repeal the ordinance , was suc
cessfully checkmated

was , time that the count 11 acted on Ihe re-
peaAng ordinance one way or the other. He
1 t . tified the conned of the ultimatum that he
' had jeceHed from the county nuomej and
suggested that a fcpecial meeting be culled at

The mayor then -directed an order to the
