On the motion of Councilman Jersen, a com- mittee composed of three, was appointed by Councllman Younkerman, who was pre- siding n the absence of Mayor Maloney to draft an entirely new ordinance.. Coun- climen Jensen, Morgan and Skodsholm wore named as this conmittee, The amendment t) the ord nanes fogulating the use of sidewalks, prohibiting the sale of merchardise on the public sidewalks was passed under suspension of the rules and against the protest of Councllman Olson. Mr. Olson conducts a grocery store and he viewed the amendment to the ordinance with considerable alarm. “Why, I couldn't sell a melon to a man outside my store under this amendment. 1 suppose If the melon was'on the side- walk, I would have to.tgke it Into the store before I could sell it,” declared the republican nominee for mayor. “Why, John, you know very well that the amendment I not intended (o stop you dolmg anything Hice that! “¥du" Kilow whht i X "hz‘- “Céunelimyn Morgan fn'a oconcliiatary manner, bt .

It 1s no secret but that the amendment to the ordinance Is designed to prevent a cértaln' shde dealor on Brosdway from op- cupying and sélling hix ‘wares on the side- walk In front of his store. The council will meet as a committes of the whole Wedhesday evening and in ad- Journed regular session Thursday afternoon to complete the assessment of some side- walks, CANDIDATES WILL BE ASKED TO MAKE POSITION KNOWN Labor Meeting Wil Which They May A Make Speech The meeting held last night in Labor temple under the auspices of the Trades #nd Labor assembly for the purpose of di: cuesing the local political situation so far 8 It referred to the approaching municipa) election resulted n the organization of the Workingmen's Protective assoclation, with the following officers: President, E. 8.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 8.—The necessity for the present session of congress of good laws for the protection of the natural re- sources of the United States Is the keynote ( of a report just made to the National Con- servation assoclation by Gifford Pinchot, the recently chosen president of the asso- clation. Mr. Pinchot takes up in what he calls “a spirit of constructive criticism” the nine bills relating to the conservation of natural resources introduced Into congress on January 18 on behalf of the secretary of the Interior, one of which has been reported trom the senate public lands committee, while the other eight are still in the hands of the comittee, Mr. Pinchot calls upon the members of the assoclation to put forth strong efforts to have enacted into law the bill on the with- drawal of public lands, which has been re- ported from the committee by Senator Nel- Bon after it had been amended as a result In part, at least, of conferences between the committee and officers of the conserva- tion assoclation. This bill, Mr. Pinchot thinks, should have the “unqualified sup- port of the members of the association.” Of the other eight bills, he belleves that some merely require amendment, while others must be recast altogether. Bills Sound in Prineiple. The coal bill and the phosphate, oll, as- phaltum and natural gas bill, he reports are fundamentally sound In principle, but need some amendment. They wisely sep- arate, he says, the surface of the land| from the underiying minerals and provide for the disposal of the minerals by lease and not by sale. “But the coal bill,"” he objects, “‘contains no sufficlent anti-monopory clause. The clause which proposes to regulate rates to be charged the public Is so framed that it may be evaded with care.” Another clause of the bill, he adds, “may ful level of the practice.” Railroads and Forest In regard to the bill for the survey of rallroad land grants, he expresses the opin- fon that it will enable the rallroads prop- erly to perfect ®tles to their lands, “but it overlooks the long pending understanding between certain of the roads hnd the forest service for the return of railroad lands within the national forests of the United States In return for the right to cut in one body an amount of timber equal to that on the lands returned.” This understanding he says requires only legislation to make it effective. Speaking of the water power bill, Mr, Pinchot declared, "It repeals In silence the existing water power law, and curtalls the already ample power now exercised, with the approval of a former attorney general, by the Department of Agriculture, The provision in the bill for the compen- satlon to the government by the companies, he holds is good. Water power sites should be protected from private appropriation under the land laws, he says, and it should be made possible to lssue to the companies permits terminating at the end of fifty years. Loophole in Reclamation Bill. The fault ‘found by Mr. Pinchot with the reclamation bill is that it opens reclatmed lands to absentee landlords and to specula- tors. The worst feature of the blil for the sale of timber and timber lands, he declares is that it replaces the objectlonable feature of the timber and stone act, which was the inducement to speculation in government timber, with provisions which promote speculation and retard the development of agricultural and mineral lands far beyond the act it repeals. In failing to separate the surface from the underlying minerals, the bill for the classification of public lands s incon- sistent with the coal bill, he finds. “The withdrawal bill as amended and prevailing commercial says Mr. Pinchot, “the protecilon of all natural resources on the public domain un- tll good laws can be passed. The whole influence of the conservation assoclation, he declares should be thrown behind the bill, reduce the standard of mining to the waste- | Price.
