FIX PAV
City Passes Salary Ortii
Lance for City
The city council pa?sed a sa'ary ord
inance l?n night, after quite a 1od? dis
cussion, fixing che pay of the city
officers for tne ensuing year. The otd
inar.ce provides an increase of $2j per
month io the salary lists, of which SIS
goes to the chief of police and assessor,
and 410 to the street commissioner, tire
warden and light inspector. J. B.
Hart, chief oX police and assessor gets
*115 per month, 31 0 less thjn was paid
C. T. Moore, but the latter served as
heslh officer, also, which, with its
salary of $25 per month, now goes to
Dr. J. P. Brawand.
The principal part of the discussion
was over the salary of Mr. Hart. The
ordioacce as reported by Chairman Dc
Serisy, of the judicary committee,
provided the following moohly sala
ries: Cleric, foO: treasurer, MO: magis
trate, <40: chief of police and assessor,
<100: street commissi 'ner, fire warden
ao ! light inspeocor, }l2o. and health
officer, {is
Councilman Shea thought the chief
of police should have <125 per month,
the same as bis prvdicessor had. He
9- id the fact that we h-ve a bealtb
offic r would rna-e his work no lesj as
h? wou d have to be tbe executive
officer i ' the health department.
Counc Uian r>e Serisy called atten
tion to the objections r: ised by Mr.
Shea to the city paying all of the salary
of the n;ght watchman, which came up
before the salary ordinance, when Mr.
Shea said tuat the city's finances could
not stand the 150 a month increase In
burden. To which Mr S bea arswered
that tbe c-ses are not similar, as one
was a proposed increase over the u!d
salary list at,u .he other was not.
Mavor Conway . al ed attention to.
the f ct that those who advanced the
claims of A.T. Hurt to theo;fc6 to which
he was elected said ibxt he wourd tan ?
the office ?t 1100 per moth.
Councilman 0e Serisy verified the
mayor's statemant and said that if $50
a month would damage tbe treasury
much, $2 5 would hurt soma.
Councilman Mcl.ean proposed a com
promise oo $115 per month and the
?uggestion was followed. The ordi-j
nance was amended and passed.
RuIm Vilolatad
Attention has been c tiled to fact that
tbe salary ordioance w is passed at the
same meeting at which it was intro
duced, without the rules having been
suspended, contrary to tbe provision |
that all ordinances must lie oo the
table for one week. This will prob-ibly
be corrected at the next meeting.
IFriedemhat Appointed
Before the discussion over the salary
ordinance the question of tbe elwtioa
and pay of the uigbt watchman came
up. The health and police committee
rf commended the reap, jln'meat of
Henry Priedenthat aud ecommendtd
that tbe oily pa; al! of hi; salary in the
future Instead ot J50 per month as in
Che past, which salary it -ecommendsd
be dxtd at ill' 0 a month. Heretofore
the business men have subscribed all ot
Mr. Fr'edenthal1* monthly ja'ary over
( the HO.
Councilman Shea thought the salary
? should go on as at present, as own g to
the city's financial condition, it would
be unwise to place an additional burden
of f;'>0 a month ou the city treasury.
Mr, Friedenthal was reappointed and
the question of his salary was referred
| to the ways arid m ans committee.

I One of the Important Duties of Physicians and
the Well-Informed of the World
is to learn as to the relative standing and Reliability of the leading manufactur
ers of medicinal agents, as the most eminent physicians are the most careful as to
the uniform quality and perfect piiritv of remedies prescribed by them, and it is well
, known to physicians and the Weil-Informed generally that the California Fig Syrup
I Co.. by reason of its correct method and pert ??ct equipment and the ethical character of
' its product has attained to the high standing in scientific and commercial circles which
is accorded to successful and reliable houses only, and, therefore, that the name of the
| Company has become a guarantee of the excellence of its remedy.
TRUTH AND QUALITY
appeal to the Well-Informed in every walk of life and are essential to permanent suc
cess and creditable standing, therefore we wish to call the attention of all who would
enjoy good health, with its blessings, to the fact that it involves the question of right
living with ail the term implies. With proper knowledge of what is best each hour
of recreation, of enjoyment, of contemplation and of effort may be made to contribute
to that end and the use of medicines dispensed with generally to great advantage, but
as in many instances a simple, wholesome remeiy may be invaluable if taken at the
proper time, the California Fig Syrup Co. feels ihat it is alike important to present
truthfully the subject and to supply the one penect laxative remedy which has won
the appoval of physicians and the world-wide acceptance of the Well-informed because
of the excellence of the combination, known to all, and the original method of manufac
ture, which is known to the California Fig Syrup C~>. only. %
This valuable remedy has been long and favorably known under the le of ?
Syrup of Figs ? and has attained to world-wide acceptance as the most excellent of
family laxatives, and as its pure laxative principles, obtained from Senna, are well
known to physicians and the Well-Informed of the world to be the best of natural
laxatives, we have adopted the more elaborate name of ? Syrup of Figs and Elixir of
Senna ? as more fully descriptive of the remedy, but doubtless it will always be
called for by the shorter name of Syrup of Figs ? and to get its beneficial effects always
note, when purchasing, the full name of the Company ? California Fig Syrup Co. ?
plainly printed on the front of every package, whether you simply call for ? Svrup of
Figs ? or by the full name? Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna ? as ? Syrup of Figs and
i Elixir of St-nna ? is the one laxative remedy manufactured by the California Fig Syrup
| Co. and the same heretofore known by the name ? Syrup of Figs ? which has given
' satisfaction to millions. The genuine is for sale by all leading druggists throughout
the United States in original packages of one size only, the regular price of which
I is fifty cents per bottle.
Every bottle is sold under the general guarantee of the Company, filed with the
Secretary of Agriculture, at Washington, D. C., that the remedy is not adulterated or
misbranded within the meaning of the Food and Drugs Act, June 30th, 1906.
