CITY COUNCIL
BUSINESS AFFAIRS
PETROGRAD MAY BE
ATTACKED BY NAVY
COPENHAGEN, Sept. 3. German
correspondents on the Riga front say
that the new offensive, which was
mapped out according to a favorite
plan of Field Marshal von Hinden
burg, had been prepared a long time.
Von Hindenburg recently visited the
front on several occasions.
- The correspondents add that the
task of capturing Riga was not diffi
cult, ns the bulk of the Russian forces
withdrew without resistance. Last
week 50 German airplanes were busy
In the GuRs of Riga and Finland,
bombarding ships, natal batteries and
harbors, while several days ago a
largo German fleet appeared, consist
ing of cruisers, destroyers and sub
marines and began a violent bombardment.
With Medford trade Is Medford made.
The city council met in regular ses
sion Tuetday night, with Councllmen
Davis, Hargrave, Kecne and Carkin
present, Mayor Gates presiding.
Keene and Carklh were late, and as
their presence was ' necessary to ob
tain; a quorum, tho proceedings did
not begin until after 9 o'clock. Couu
oilmen Emmpns and Gaddis were ab
sent, Gaddis being on a vacation.
Tho question of a. municipal wood
supply was not brought up, and an
other holdover matter, that of the
city firemen's demand for an Increase
in wages from $70 to $80 per month.
was, on suggestion of Mayor Gates,
referred to the fire and finance com
mittees, and It Is expected these com
mittees will make their respective re
ports at the next meeting of the coun
cil, the fire committee on the merits
of the firemen's request, and the
finance committee on the ability of
the municipality to meet their de
mand.
To Revoke I.lceiLses. '
City Attorney Mears was instructed
by the city fathers to prepare an
amendment to city ordinances that
will confer on the city council author
ity to promptly revoke tho license of
any billiard or pool hall, or card room
or Jitney or Jitneur that has been con
victed of violation of the liquor laws
This prospective amendment was sug
gested by the fact that the city re
cently found Itself without legal pow
er to revoke the license of a -billiard
hall, the owner of which Dleaded
guilfy to bootlegging, and the nulli
fication of this license had to be exe
cuted by the county attorney. As the
ordinance now stands such a license
may be voided only after conviction
on a gambling charge.
The fire chief was Instructed by
the council to make a list of every
shack' and dilapidated building In
the city, and to condemn and have de
stroyed those that are a fire menace,
and to have declared a nuisan.ee and
razed those that are unsightly. These
shells of structures, tho lawgivers
hold, are ugly, unwholesome and un
sanitary, and have degenerated Into
temporary abodes for itinerants and
the less; fortunate 'members' of so
ciety. :!,r:i::Mlno lliiSlnew. 'ipj
1 Attorney E. E. Kelly representing
Thomas Flynn, proprietor of the Med
ford Electric company, pleaded before
the council Flynn's right to use a dis
tillate pump In front of his place of
business on Main street. It appeared
that Flynn already has In use a gaso
line pump. He wanted also to In
stall a distillate pump, but probably
half the council has objected to any
more stationary pumps on Main
streets. Flynn, It seems, then bought
a portable pump from which to feed
his distillate; and his legal represent
ative declared that he had permission
to Install- It from Acting Fire Chief
Marks, although it developed that
such permission could cover only the
fire-menace aspects of the practice.
Some members of tho council alleged
tliat Flynn has not always moved hlsj
portable pump back Info his store af.-,
ter-serving a customer. The whole
matter, wa thoroughly threshed out,
but no. action was taken and the prob
lem was held in abeyance. Mayori
Gates, who, on a tie, may vote, Is said
to have no objection to the portable
pump.
H. F. Wilcox was granted permis
sion to conduct a pool room, to be
known as "The Oaks."
' A report of the finance committee
was submitted by City IJccorder Al
ford, adopted by the council and war
rants were ordered issued to cover
salaries and other municipal obliga
tions. . ,
