Bills Presented Judges aud Clerks Appointed. Tuesday evening March 14, 1899, tho Cottage Grove council in chambers assembled transacted the following business: Council called to order at 7:30 p.m. with Mayor Bristow in the chair. Councilmen Piper, Ilemcnway, Snapp, Gowdy and Knox present. Minutes of the previous meeting read, and after some changes in that part re referring to the digging of the "Doke ditch," in which it did appear that tho responsibility of digging the ditch rested upon Mr. Harms, thus relieving Mr. Harms from the responsibility, tho minutes were adopted : 1IILL8 ALLOWKD, The following bills were then read and allowed: Hemenway & Burkholder cedar poles $ 1 50 John Durham, work on crossing and hauling lumber 1 25 S. R. Piper, mdse 7 34 Water Co 2 months 10 00 T. M. Doke, work on ditch 1 00 Griffin & Veatch, nails 25 A. Nelson, lights 1 month 31 00 A. Nelson5 street lamps, fixtures and wire 16 50 A. Nelson, 5 renewals 3 75 Total $72 59 One bill, that of Mrs. T. M. Doke for f2 for washing for Mrs. Sanford while the family of Mrs. Sanford was ill, waa rejected by the council upon the ground that tho council did not authorize the work to be done. It was claimed, how ever, that the marshal authorized tho work to bo done and that therefore tho council was responsible for the payment. The council overruled this and refused to audit tho bill, although every mem ber agreed that Mrs. Doke should have her pay, but not from tho public funds as that act would establish a precident, whereby other claims of a like nature could bo presented. The result was that Mayor Bristow volunteered to pay $1 out of his own private funds, providing that the balance be subscribed by other members. Councilman Snapp, who had supported Mrs. Doke's claim, kindly volunteered to pay the other dollar. Treasurer Veatch then made his re port, which was referred to tho finance committee. The matter of selecting polling places and judges aud clerks of elections then came up for consideration. Upon motion it was decided that judges nnd clerks of election bo not al lowed to exceed $1.00 por dny for ser rices. Tho following polling places, judges and clerks wore then decided upon.
