Arrests Made Today for Alleged Vio lation of the Screen Ordinance Fish Dealers Were the Ones Upon Whom the Warrants Were Served Communication From Sorosis. ; i The lax -attention which is said to have been paid the recently adopted screen ordinance has caused some ; , discussion during the past few days. A: slight sensation was produced to day when twelve or thirteen fish deal . . ers were served with warrants charg- ng them with violation of this law. , These dealers- . were arrested this i morning and' all wera , recognized for their-appearance alt 'court next week. ' it is anegea tnat same ot -tne aeai- ers were paying no attention to . the ordinance; other than ' o ; keep their fish covered ;with bagging.-; The fordi- , -nance provided ; that ; either glass : or : wire screens' must be 'used. 'The names : of those upon whom warrants 'were served today are as follows: R. C. Fergus, J. B. Neely,Hamon Tietgen, v RnpprfpTi J P. Oldham.. J. R. Car ney, J. R. Bell, T. V.

The violation of 'this ordinance, not only by huck sters and ' small : dealers, but as well . by large business establishments, with no apparent 'efforts of the authorities to have Such violations punished does not inspire confidence in the motives or capacity of those whose duty is law enforcement. The failure of fish dealers at the Front street market t6 make even a pretense of observing the law must have been observed by the police and, in the course of his duty, by the Chief Df Police. ; ; "The members ,oi the Sorosis ,were j actuated only by the purest and best motives in seeking the passage of this ordinance, the desire for a healthier and more beautiful city. ' r ."The failure o those whose duty it is to enforce this law ought to mark them "as unfit for the public service. We earnestly call . upon, them to do their plain duty,' and - if they are un willing then let them resign and let .others have:. committed to them tha health;, safety and. 'happiness of tho community." t- , , m J i ' . CARE IN VOTING. Many of us . would no doubt be sur prised to know that in the primary election several hundred votes were lost because of improper marking of ballots. The law respecting regularity is very strict, and every voter should inform himself before going into the booth. The rules for the election Monday are these: - - Only one Candidate can be Voted for from Each Ward. The Voter must Designate his choice by putting an (X) in the Square Opposite the Name of the Candidate. Only Five Candi dates can be Voted For, but Tt is not necessary to Vote for Five if a, Voter does not care to support a full ticket. To put a "check" mark in the square opposite the name of a candidate ; is not complying wUh the law, and a bal lot so checked is thrown out. If the bajlot is defaced it is also thrown Qut, -biit'a voter has the right to the use of three ballots in preparing his vote, f - Let every - man see that his ballot is" properly prepared and carefully de posited in the ballot box.
