They Hold Their Monthly Meeting—The Regnlsr
Reports and Other Matters of Interest.
The city council held its regular monthly
meeting last night. A Bill board was present.
The minutes of the last meeting were read and
confirmed.
Alderman Hatcher, chairman of the police
committee, reported that the two mounted
policemen had been dismounted and the city re-
districlcd into four beats. The two new police
men have not been appointed, as it is only a
short time until an entire new force will be
elected.

THE MAGAZINE QUESTION.
City Attorney 8. B. Hatcher submitted the fol
lowing opinion by request of council.
Columhuk, Ga., December 1,1886.—To the Hon
orable Mayor and Council of Colnmbus, Ga.:
In obedience to (he resolution of your body de
siring ray opinion, to-wit: “Alderman Foley
moved that the city atto/ney construe so much
of the ordinance in relation to gunpowder as pre
scribed ratew of storage fbr same and give bis
opinion as to t-ho right of the mugazinc keeper
to allow any rebate in the same. Adopted.”
Section 6, page 52 of city ordinances prescribes
the rates of storage at one cent per pound
for first twelve months or any shorter time, if
paid by the owner in not exceeding ten days
after the powder shall havo been stored therein,
and one and a half cents per cound if not so
paid.
The penalty of an half cent per pound, if not
paid in ten days, shows unmistakably that it was
the intention of the council in adopting the ordi
nance to enforce the collection of the rates for
storage charged in the ordinance. In addition
to the penalty embraced in section 0 the punish
ment mr any violation ot'the ordinance is pro
vided for in section 7, which manifests the inten
tion of the makers of the ordinance as to the
enforcement ol it. Therefore, it is the opinion of
your attorney that it is the duty of the mugazinc
keeper to collect all moneys due for storage, as
provided for in section 3, os it is his duty to re
ceive and deliver to the owner; to have a fixed
place of residence, or business, and to advertise
the same; !•> enter all powder received in a book
to the creditor the respective owners, issue re
ceipts therefor and to keep account of all moneys
collected, etc., jib prescribed in section 3.
The clerk of council in his submission of the
above resolution states:
“1 deem it proper to say that it is conceded by
council that section 3 of said ordinance has been
changed, by custom or otherwise, so that the fee
I collected shrill b'- retained by the magazine keeper
as his p. r iui; *e instead of being pafd to the
city treasurer.”
Now n ■ to ttu right of the magazine keeper to
allow a rebate m the storage. When the storage
is collected K becomes his perquisites, and in our
opinion bo can do ns ic pleases with it. But we
do not think it was the intention of the council
LOCAL LACONICS.
Chipley Tuesday night. She was quite old, and | adopting the custom of giving the magazine
keeper the storage as perquisites to permit him
to extend a reb ite and thereby change the rates
of storage established by the ordinance. After
he has collected it then it becomes his money
and lie can do with it as he pleases.
Respect fully submitted,
Samuel B. Hatcher.
Alderman Dozier moved that the opinion be re
ceived, and that the mayor rescind his order and
was the mother of William Dugas Trammell,
onco well known in this section as a leading re
publican and author of the novel “Ca Ira.”

We have been asked the above question fifty
times at least. We havo mo authority to speak
Ibr our friend Grimes, but we take it upon our
self to say that, knowing Mr. Grimes as we do,
we believe that he will act a9 he believes for tlie
best interest of his country and party. That he
has evidence before him that conclusively sat
isfies him that the highest interest of his coun
try and party, and especially the interest of that
section of the country which he has been select
ed to represent, requires that he shall
cast his vote for Samuel J. Ran
dall for speaker of the house of
which he is a member. It would be strange if a
congressman from a manufacturing city like Co
lumbus should vote fbr Carlise in preference to
Randall—the more especially is this true when
the election of Raudall will more certainly pro
mote the interest of the section that Mr. Grimes
represents, as well as that of the whole country,
than will the election of Mr. Carlisle to the posi
tion of speaker.—Butler Herald.
What will the Herald say when it learns that
the president of the largest manufacturing con
cern in Columbus agrees with Mr. Carlisle on the
ariff issue?

This being the last monthly report for the year,
I feel it due to > our honorable body to give a
summary of the year’s work. The number of
proscriptions filled by Mr. Glass, ci’y druggist,
from January fat to December fat is 4810. The
number of visits made no record was made of,
hence cannot furnish them. A number of visits
were made to parties who managed to pay for
their medicine, but not able to pay doctor’s bill.
I would most respectfully suggest to your hon
orable body a change of location for the hospital.
Owing to the minima rising rom the river, and
other local causes. I consider it one of the most
unhealthy local ions for the hospital.
No mutter what type of disease or
injury is sent there the case becomes compli
cated with malaria. Some of the cases In conse
quence of this complication result fatally, which
otherwise would recover. The health of the city
