Old Controversy About Improv- mg It Revived Referred to Council. The old controversy about oponlng North First Street, better known n& Pino, was ronewed last evening be fore tho C?Ity Council by tho presenta tion of a petition asking Hint the Council tako action to secure the im provement this summer, Tho peti tion was signed by a largo number of business men nnd citizens, but was attacked by E. It. Jones as being sign ed by only two property owners on tho street, J. W. Bennett nnd Tom Howard. ' After t'o rending of the petition, Mr. Jones said that he did not think tho Counrll needed much of a state ment as It could bo seen that hardly any of tho property owners on the street had signed nnd thnt tho wholo matter was explnlned by tho first Blgnnturo, that of J. W. Donnott. Ho snid that the property owners on the Btrect wanted It oponed and Improved when the conditions wero right, but overyono know tho enormous oxpeiiBo Involved and that It would bo fool hardy to undertake It at this time. City Recorder Dutler pointed out that It would bo lmposslblo to open tho street ns proposed, that Is, from Market avenuo to the Intersection with North Front street, nonr tho Cold Storage, bocauso thoro was a largo tract north of Aldor 'through which tho street hnd not been dedi cated. Ho snld that thoro were about forty lawsuits nnd counted claims over tho nrca north of Aldor ho thnt It would bo a difficult matter even to condemn tho right of way. Arthur McKeown followed with a little talk In which re stated that tho petition was n"1 submitted as from tho properly owners but ns from busi ness men who recognized the nr-cdn of tho city. Ho snld that tho .open ing of North First street would mean a cut of more than twenty feet In front of some of tho property. Ho snld thnt at leant fifty tpor cent of tho property owners on tho streot wanted It opened. So far as E. K. Jones was concerned, he s-Id that Mr. Jones had offered to withdraw his objection providing ho could soil his lot as part of the street or If somcono would buy another lot somewhere else ani move his houso onto It. Ho snld t'at the reason for tho petition from busi ness men was becauso "thoro wero n lot of old mossbneks living on North First street who wouldn't spend flvo rnnta fni Ifimrnvnninntfl " Tin until that tho opening of tho streot wbb of' moro Importance than opening strcots In tho suburbs. E. IC, -Jones.. .(Joorgo Haines nnd others Htnted that they f'ought thnt tho FPntlmon of tho nffocted prop erty ownors should bo first considered and pointed out that when tho matter was brought up a fow months ago, irwrly nil tho property ownors had united In n remonstrance against its being dono nt this tlnio. Robert Swnnton stntod that ho hnd porsonnlly circulated tho petition on file nnd secured nil the names within nu horn or so nnd found on'y ono man who would not sign It, Ho said that Arthur McKeown was supposod to presont u potltlon from tho proper ty owners. Finally tho matter was roferrod to the entlro Council nnd will probably bo brought up again next Mondny night. ' " : -- " FIRST nruN-ns of nrw mi iNtti .

ST STREET NORTH Should Remove This Obstruc tion to Growth and Develop ment of Business Section. Petition Asking Raise to $125 Meets Opposition in Coun cil Albrecht to Decide The petition, of local business mon nnd tnxpnyors urging the City Council to restore tho (25 trlmmod off Mnr shnl Carter's salary two weeks ago was presented last night nnU' after a discussion tbg fate of It was In doubt, Councilman Albrecht being absent. Councllmcti Wilson, Forguson and Evortson voted to restore the pny to $125, while Coiincllmcn Copplo nnd Doll voted against tho raise. This leaves tho decision practically up to Councilman Albrecht as It requires four councllmcn to voto favorably upon tho ordinance necessary to ralso tho salary to $125 per mouth. The test vote was brought last night on a motion Instructing tho. city attorney o draft tho ordinance With three coiincllmon voting against It, Mayor Alien cannot oven dccldo tho tie" In favor of the raise. After tho reading of tho potltlon, Councilman Wilson stated that Inas much as the retrenchment move had failed, he felt that Carter should not bo made tho only ono to suffor nnd consequently moved that tho potl tlon bo granted. Mayor A.Ieu snld thnt tho petition was all nows to him ns ho did not ask to have It circulated. Councilman Copplo suggested that If Carter's salary was to be raised again, tho Council might ns well re- j store Levi Smith his Job on the police (force. Wilson would not agree to tills except that In caso of necessity tho extra officer could bo hired. Mr, Copplo said that It was' not his fault thnt tho othor retrenchment monsures hnd failed. Ho said' that it was not a personal matter with him but? ho thought thnt the councllmeu wero falling to do their duty In not Booing that tho city's cxponscs wero kopt within tho Income. He said ho had voted for a 10-mlll levy Inst year and would do tho samo next fall. Forguson said that tho city could rotrench without cutting salaries nnd Copplo said that It was up to For giiBon to show thorn how. Ferguson said he hnd outllnod' n plan and Cop plo hnd objected to this becauso ho said that Instead of taxing Improve-' nionts for engineering and Inspection 1 costs, ho thought thnt tho city should pay somo of tho costs. Forguson snld thut his plan was to ' havo t'.o property owners nlong tho i streets that needed much Improve ment to pay for tho work Instead of charging It up to tho city. Ho cited Central uvonuo ns an illustration nnd snld thnt with 1125 or $200 the sheet could bo fixed un so that the nlnnk- Ing would Inst nnothor yenr or two. Instond of charging this nmoiint up1 to tho city ns a w' olo ho proposed to lpt tho Central avenue property own ers pay for It. After tho voto. Councilman Copplo1 snld thut he did not believe thnt1 enough votes could bo secured to en-' net tho ordinance. Councilman Doll said that the pe tition did not have much effect on him as ho know ninny signed It slm-j ply to avoid tolling tho circulator no ' nnd leaving it up to the council to uecltle. Ho said bo had discovered this tendency among the pooplo when tho bnnd petitions wero up. Copplo Knld that some would sign anything. Councilman Evortson snld that ho thought tho Job of marshal was worth $125 nor mouth. Ho said that If tlitn- did not want Carter thoy ouirht to hlro somcono who wns worth $125. finally tno mnttor went ovor until next meeting.
