They Have Found It
The other day Marshal Ban Held spent a couple of hours searching tor an oíd book with a black cover, containing newspaper clippings. It was a hard appearing old volume and looked like a tramp. It was ragged and dirty, but it was a precious old volume, for beside the written record it was the only authorized version of the city ordinances extant. The book, happily, was found after due diligence and strift search and is now in the hands of N. D. Corbin, who is putting the live ordinances into systematic shape, and burying the dead ones. But as yet the ancient trampish old book is as sacred as a fetich. It is the god Moloch to the council. It is an object of worship and care shuuld be taken that it be not lbSt again till its ordinances are compiled and authorized copies printed. Let Mr. Corbin keep a weasel eye on that old book. It is to Ann Arbor what the sacred buil of Thebes was to the ancient Egyptians. To think that all these years Ann Arbor has never had printed copies of the ordinances ! Is thiá a western town or Babyion ?
