In order to pass the ordinance lust night and to get work on the armory started as soon as possible) a suspen sion of the rules was necessary. The two members of the council who voted osilnst the ordinance last night were not necessarily opposed to it, but wish ed it to follow the regular channels of a city ordinance in the fornuttlve stages and to allow it to lay over until next meeting for a final vote. The other members of the council, however, felt that they had committed themselves to General White in agree ing on the $7000 to bo applied on the city's share of $20,000 In tho construc tion of the armory and felt that It must be passed at once. - The proceedure wus not long and there was little bickering or argu ment.
