This time the Perkins ho tel has fallen under the veto. At the last meeting of the council the mem bers passed an ordinance permitting the notei owners the right to extend their building eight inches over the sidewalk In certain places where the hotel people wish to add ornamental decorations to the present structure. Mayor Lanes veto message follows: i Herewith return ordinance No. IT ? not approved. This Is an ordinance whlnh mn. permission to the Perkins Hotel com pany, located at Fifth and Washington streets, to erect some hollnw ninra above and onto the sidewalk a Aitnnn of eight inches from the property line. sucn pillars to be used for ornamentnl purposes only. In respect to this ordinance I would say that the sidewalk at the nnrthwui corner of Fifth and Washington streets Is in the contested district at th it and every inch of sidewalk surface Is reaulred ror th umm txf th. trenmT-i n.,K iic. ana me curtailment of It, which Is authorized by this ordinance, amounts to a transfer of the property of the public to private use without any ade quate compensation to the people, and is unjust and should not be allowed for purposes ornamental or otherwise.
