Council approves electric railway franchise amid debate

North Yakima city council held a special session and a regular meeting to consider a substitute ordinance for an electric railway franchise. Contested by Marsh and Linbarger as irregular, the measure passed after sections were revised. A broad resolution urged delaying further waterworks franchises and a petition to buy or build municipal waterworks. Additional actions included alley vacation for St. Paul & Tacoma Lumber Co. and license petitions for saloons, with Dudley signaling opposition to Sunday openings.
