COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS,
Most of Its Business Held Until Next
Meeting Night.
If any one went to the city hall
Tuesday evening with the expecta
tion of witnessing n "Wild West
Show" as per program outlined by
the Telegram, their anticipations
were far from being realized. liv
erything passed off in a quiet and
orderly mnnner, and no violent re
monstrances by the property owners
disturbed the serenity or interfered
with the deliberations of the city
guardians. The little edifice was
filled to overflowing and the door
and windows were packed with
faces eager to hear the proceedings
of the august body. Interest cen
tered in what action the mayor was
going to take regarding the ques
tion that has been agitating the
public mind more or less since he
received his appointment as post
master. Many had contended that
an individual could not legally
hold n government position and act
as mayor at one time, and that the
council proceedings under such cir-

from 12.3 to 10.6 per cent. The
plan seemed a feasible one, and
apparently met with approval. Al
derman Norton said judging from
the remonstrance the people were
not in n hurry to have improvement
made, nnd he was in favor of let
ting the street rest for the present.
Aid. Hewitt remarked that he fa
vored pushing the street through if
not enough properly owners had
signed the remonstrance to knock
it out. Matter held over for one
week.
Treasurer Hall was present with
his little hatchet, and stated that he
understood several hundred dollars
had been received by the recorder
and paid out by the same source
without the treasurer receiving n
record of the transactions. He said
that it was a difficult matter for him
to keep books when he did not
know how much was received and
paid out. Council ordered that
hereafter all monies received for the
city must pass into the treasurer's
possession. The recorder and the
treasurer were requested to prepare
their reports for next Tttesdayevcn
ing's session.
Treasurer Hall also stuted that
he had been informed by one of the
cotincilmeu that the acts of Mayor
Valentine in relation to the council
illegal, therefore he
Alderman Hewitt opposed this plan

"Are you going to cash nny war

Hall yesterday.
"No, sir; I 0111 not," replied Mr,
Hall.
"What is your reason for taking
tins stand ? was asked the treas
tirer.
"I do not think Mr. Valentine is
entitled to hold two paying offices
tinder the law, and for that reason
any warrunt signed by him is not
legal. I am looking at the matter
