Tho fltv rnnnoll la to increase the
;i.!:vr!es of several of the ctly officials,
tint 'night ;"Mr? Hansen""' presented
"measure fixing the compensation of
employes of the fire department, but
unanimous consent for suspension of
' itbe rules was not forthcoming and
Hhe bill went over. The measure fixes
;lhe salary of the chief engineer at
85; -the salaries of drivers and the
engineer of the chemical at $70; the
salaries of foremen and extra men at
$8.70. The measure provides that the
new ordinance Bhall become effective
.January 1,
' In explaining his ordinance Mr.IIan
.sen said the oouncil had recently made
,an effort to restore salaries, but that
the chief engineer of the fire depart
ment had always been overlooked, His
salary at present is but $70.80. Mr.
Hansen asked unanimous consent for
suspension of the rules, and all voted
favorably until Mr. Nordstrom's name
was called.
'. Mr. Nordstrom explained that the
"appropriations for the year had al
ready been made, and he believed the
ordinance should have been presented
at the previous meeting.
" "Well, so far as that is concerned,
I want to any that I will bring in an
ordinance next meeting for more in
creases," said M. Burns. "I mean, to
to offer a measure that will increase
the salary of the chief of police to
something like decent wages. There
may be some objection to this ordi
nance because of the late date at
which it is to be presented, but I-be
Iieve members of the council will re
; nlize the Justice of the ordinance. And
I may offer a measure that will pro
dive increase in the salaries of po
licemen," added Mr. Burns.
After the meeting Mr. Burns said
he thought the salary of the street
superintendent ought to be increased,
and that he would offer an ordinance
covering the matter if necessary. He
sald the office of chief of police wns
worth $100 a month, especially in
velw of the fact that the police de
partment is self-sustaining. ..
The salary of the city physician has
been Increased from $25 to $40 month
ly. Dr. Pllklngton, the incumbent, re
cently asked the council to increase
his salary to the old figure, $50. The
. request was referred to the ways
and means committee, which recom
mended $40 The recommendation
was adopted. The' salary Is very
small consldermg the amount of
work In the healt hdepai linent dur
ing the winter months. Last even
ing Or. Pllklngton was complimented
by Mayor Suprenant for the efficient
manner in which he had handled the
contagious disease cases this year.
