Inasmuch as tho city ' will havo to buy In tho proporty for tho amount of tho lmprovomont any- way, this procedure now bolng un I dor wny, It was doclnrod only fair Unit the monoy should be paid with out furthor dolay.

" If unyouo will tnko tho trouble of going Into Mr. Oldloy's office," snld I. L. Hood, "thoy will soo what a mass of work thcro is to bo dona." " Well, my Idea in suggesting thnt tho assistant bo done away with at this time," put In Mayor Copplo, was that tho fivo porccnt of all improvo mouts might prove ample to pay tho o.ponses of tho city engineer's of fice. Othorwlso tho monoy must como out of tho general fund." " I think thnt tho amount would bo Biivcd In a yoar," declared A. H. idldley. "If you gontlomon mako an examination of tho office nnd tho work that Is bolng dono thoro, and then decldo to cut off tho extra man, I will huvo nothing to sny."
