G. KnaAPP, 6 3-t Commercial Agent, Wm., Fletcher, Et Al, VS, The City of Fitzgerald, Judge Roberts has granted a restraining order restraining the city of Fitzgerald from im pounding the cattle from the out side of the city. The papers were served on Mayor Wilson, by Sheriff Mcllnnis, yesterday. ' The plaintiffs, Mr. William Fletcher and several of his neighbors who hav: cattle on the ranges near the city, are repre sented by McDonald and Quin cey. The case will be heard at‘ Irwiaville, Wednesday, 26th inst. The effect of the temporary order will not be so disastrous as it at first might appear, as under the present arrzngement, the poundmaster is supposed to drive away approaching cattle. He is mounted, and can easily‘ protect the city against cattle. The mayor and the people arel back of him, and determined to keep the streets clear of cattle until the case is heard. The Enterprise very much re grets the case., It must be ade mitted that we are entitled to regulate such matters within the limits of the city, and if the present charter does not au thorize the present ordinance on that subject, (we think it does,) of course it will be so amended that it will, and no possible good can come of the suit, The Enterprise has been con sistently on the farmers’ side of this question in the manner of enforcing the ordinance. We have insisted upon the utmost re gard for the rights of our neigh bors in impounding cattle from outside the city., We havz be lieved and insisted that it would be better in many instances to drive the cattle away rather than to drive them’ into the pound, at th 2 same time we have realized that the ordinance must be enforced, That ‘we are .entitled to ex clude cattle from our streets the same as other cities,” no sane man will deny. { ..
