ROUTINE BUSINESS
OF CITY COUNCIL AT
REGULAR MEETING
• . ..
I
The city council met last night at
the accustomed place and hour with
.1) present. Matters of a routine
nature were chiefly attended to. Af
tur the minutes of the previous meet
ing had been read and approved a
communication was presented from
the clerk of the school board asking
for the sum of $1,500, to be used in
payment of the running expenses of
.he school. Hater in the session under
the head of new business it was or
dered that warrants be drawn for this
amount.
The reports of the city clerk and
city treasurer, which were read,
showed that the city is really at the
iottom of the sack for although
money still remains to the credit of
the municipality in the bank this is
so only because of the fact that some
warrants have not been presented for
payment. The large amount of taxes
yet remaining to be paid will, how
ever, remedy this otherwise deplora
ble state of affairs.
Councilman Wesley reported that
.lie cells and certain adjuncts thereto
In the basement of the Are house
liave been completed. He said that
Contractor Kelling had been compell
to postpone the Installation of the
lie bell bcacuse of other work.
Counlclman McAllister made his
usual favorable report a3 to the fine
condition of the Are station and an
nounced that the 10x10 inch timbers
to stiffen the foundation of the eng'n>
had been put In with a noticeable
'>eneflcial result.
A long discussion took pjlace in re
gard to paying the bill of Mrs. Lalblin
f^r caring for the Davison infant. The
bill was for $76 for 16 days' care.
Councilman Roas declared that the
cMj had made no arrangements to
poy it. Councilman Burgh thought
the matter should be left to Judge
Tt.cker in accordance with a prev
ious arrangement. City Attorney
O’Neil was opposed to the payment
entirely. Councilman McAllister was
of the opinion thut the city had or
dered the work dune and the bill
rhould be paid. Attention was called'
to the fact that when Councilman
Bess and Dr. Chace had broached the
matter the current rate of $5 a day
for such work was mentioned. Mayor
Mi Her declared that he would not
favor the payment of the bill were It
ort for the fact that Mrs. Balblin had
been Informed by Dr. Chace soon af
ici she had taken charge of the baby
that the city would pay her $6 per day.
Further discussion brought no result
other than that the matter should he
put over until Judge Tucker could be
conrulied In the matter.
Mayor Moller called attention of
the committee on streets and Ught3
to the fact that the lights on the
steeple of the Catholic church were
again failing to send their guiding
beams across the tundra.
Councilman McAllister who favors
a public scale stated that he hud
learned of one at Solomon, the prop
erty of the railroad, which had never
been uncrated and he though it might
be obtained reasonably.
The question of making the demo
crats and others who use city coal
and light when they use city hall for
nr citings pay for the coal and light
though supported by Dr. Wesley fail
ed to obtain much support and was
letf In abeyance. T»ie meeting then
r.djrumed for one week.
