The West Ashcville Improvement com pany is protesting against the action of the Hoard of Aldermen on Thursday, when a sccial tax of $1.50 for each arc light and f0 cents for each incandescent light was levied on electric light compa nies whose business was done partly out of the city. The Aldermen fixed the rate tor companies wholly in the city at $1 and 25 cents for the different class lights, the idea being that companies from which the city received taxes on plant ought not pay as much as the com panies whose plants were outside the limits.

In fact, they can dis count the "Dcnimies" ami have some left over, and they arc recommended to all crsoris contcmplatm; the establish ment of a slate factory. The Reformers went into the city hall yesterday afternoon with both eyes wide o I ten ami, probably (mind you, proba bly), their minds made up that the names they had put on their slate should not lie erased. although Aldermen Starucs and J. M. Oudcr, of the "Straithtouts." spat on their hands and tried to rub olV sonic of the names. It was "no ko, however, and tlie new officials, as soon as the machinery fjot to working easily, were chosen in com paratively rapid succession. Joint UoHrit. The Joint Board had to hold its session first, and as this was generally known the crowd did not show tip full until alonir about o'clock. All members of the "j'int" were present with the excep tion of Advisor McColhim and Alderman Jones. The street committee recommended that A. Rankin be allowed $ir.

Mavor I'atton reported that he had hail sold an old plank sidewalk on Char lote street for the snm ot 2 o cash. The street committee was instructed to look into the question of procuring curbing from the city's quarry in Hen derson county, and also to investigate thecostof producing crushed static at the citv crusher.

All parties to the case were instructed to appear in court at It) o clock I lmrsuay morn- inn when a decision would be rendered. The court ordered that, pending the rendering of a final decision, it would take no action on any ot the siile mo tions submitted to it. This puts a ciuie tuson the motion of Attorney Clcland who was representing the Illinois sail hatb association, for a temporary in junction restraining the directors from opening tomorrow, ami which it had been entenueu to press oil new grounds had a decision been rciulcrcil touav against the government As soon as the court s announcement had been made it at once adjourned for passed by the last legislature they arc the day and the audience filed out.
