WAIT A WEEK
City Council Defeats Action on
Renuest For $150 Per
Month For Its Support.
After listening to tho appeal of a
half dozen men who appeared as n
special rommlttco of tho Mnrnhflold
Chamber of Commerce, tho city coun
cil last night postponed Ilnnl nctlon
for a week on tho petition that the
city npproprlato $150 per month to
support tho Coos Day Concert Dand.
Tho action was takon after sovoral
members of tho council bad express
o,l themselves as doubtful whothr
tho city would havo tho cash to spare
and also as to whothor It would bo
better to suhstltuto tho band for
somo of tho other things which they
thought tho city nccdod.
Tho matter was Hrst presontod by
C. V. McKnlght. Ho had a longthy
pctltion signed by representative bus
iness men and property holders. I'm
snl.l that nearly nil of tho largest
taxpayers In tho city woro repre
sented on tho petition. Ho made a
strong appeal for the support of tho
ban 1, H-lilch ho snld would bo lost
unless tho city council appropriated
tho $1 HO per month needed to sup
port it.
Tom Dennett followed Mr. Mc
Knight with a similar appeal, IIo
said that he had helped clrculato tho
petition and estlmntod that tho sign
ers of tho petition represented about
threo-fourths of the assessablo prop
erty in Mnrshllold. Ho snld that In
view of this, ho did not sco who could
protest ngnlnst tho council appropri
ating the $150 per month needed. IIo
said that this was tho only oriultnblo
way of raising money for tho band.
Ho said that to rnlso tho money by
subscription would bo to compol tho
public splrltod citizens who havo to
put up for everything to dig for tho
ban J, Ho said this was not right
and that ns It was a public benefit,
tho city ns whole should provido
fir It. Ho pointed out that other
cities woro paying largo sums out of
municipal funds for public parks,
Imiib nnd other diversions. Ho said
that all that was noolod In Mnrsh
flol 1 was n little o location along this
line. Ho snld that ho was confident
tint there would be no protests if tho
petition was prantol.
Geo. MrCutchoon spoke brlotly, re
viewing tho work tho band had dono.
lJe il'l that it was organlzod In
Mo-Mi, ifiOfl, nnd that since then
It had nveragel nbout twonty frco
