TO SUPPLY WOOD
.AT
The city council lust night look tlic
first step towards preventing the
public from ueinjr fleeced l)V the com
bination of wood dealers of Hie city
and vicinity, und also the efforts of
the ranchers to force up the price of
wood, when it was decided that the
council should act 'ns n committee of
the whole and at once hoein an in
vcshfrntion with n view to the city
itself point; into the wood business
and furnishing wood to Hie people nt
actual cost.
' While credit for slui'tine: the ac
Hon should be given to I Jr. Kcene, yd
he is no more anxious or enthusiastic
than Mayor Gntcs or any other coun
ciliiiun to prevent the public being
held up by (ho wood dealers and
forced to liny prices for wood this
fall and winter higher thnn the peo
pie can afford to pny.
To lrcveiit Gouging.
ine mayor and councilmen nre
unanimous in their determination to
prevent this prnuginq; of the public
nnd Hie chunees aro that the wood
dealers -mid ranchers who are now
charging exorbitant prices for wood
will have a lot of wood left on their
hands later- on at a big loss. The
council iiniiniimitisly denounces Hie
action of Hie wood men nnd present
prices ns an outrage. It is probable
thnt n special meeting will be called
soon to take action. There seems to
be no doubt in the minds of the coun
eilmcn, most of whom have already
privately delved into the wood situn
tion, Hint plenty of good wood enn
be gotten by the city at reasonable
prices nnd turned over to consumers
nt cost. ;
Pr. Hargrove announced last night
that he knew where tho city could get
plenty of good body fir and have it
shipped to Medford, delivered to
consumers nnd snwed nt an actual
cost of .$0.00 n cord tel the consum
ers. ' ' 1
Other councilmen think Hint this
price can be beaten by n dollar n
cord.
Grass nnd Weeds. ,
The council last night, nlso devot
ed much time to I he grass and weed
situation in the. city; nnd it 'was de
cided In have wriltcn notices served
on offending properly owners, and
then if I hey fail lo cut down the
grass and weeds along Hie sidewalks
nnd on (heir parkings, to lu.ve flic
chief of police anfl fire chief enforce
the nriliiiance governing grass and
weeds to the letter.
This ordinance provides for a fine
of from $."i to $10 nnd a .jail sen
tence of from ono lo ten days, or in
the case of ahscnteo properly own

shall do Hie work nnd have the cost
