dispute.

At present rooms in a public hirudins
arc rented by tha city to house these
two offices.
Templeton Has Idea.
Councilman Tempi, t on. Known as
the leader of the minority body of the
ilty council, has come forward with
an idea to erect a building in the
(orm-r of Mci.oughlin Park. far inK
Sin rit hilt The property held by the
city on .Main street, be thinks, should
lie disposed of. Including the city hall
and the building on lower Main
Mre't, now used by a vol unci r fire
company. His idea embraces a build
ing laiK enough to accommodate all
liv offices, us vveil an a f , r truck,
either motor driven or hauled by a
team. A paid fire de;iuri.menl of.
three or lour men is alio a I art of
ids plan.
"The building now used by the city
as a city hall," .'-ays Councilman Tfin
pictun, "is riot only inadequate to the
needs of the city, but is too dilapidated
to repair. Tho roof leaUs, and tho
huildintf shakes as vehicles pass on
the street. The Main street property
will brinif enough cash to erect a
building which will till the wants of
the ity, and will also Vjielp i-uy for the
fire truck, which the city m i ds badly
now. The building when erected "a
Mclaughlin Turk would save, the city
purchasing the bind, and in addition
to this, could be placed In such a posi
tion, that the truck could answer
alarms rjuickly, either on the hill, or
In the business district."
Payor Paid Department.
Mayor Hackett, is In favor of a
f-mall paid fire department, but does
fiOt favor the plan of erecting a new
building. The mayor believes the city
has already sold tab much of Its valu
able property, and'should retain that
property which wilt bring it returns in
cash. Instead of selling: city property
bo is In favor of buying more. The
waterfront property should belong to
the cily, according- to Mayor Hackett.
and that which does not belong to the
city, should be bought, according" to his
idea.
"I strongly favor the purchase of
waterfront properties," said Mayor
Hackett Thursday, "mat the city may
be in a position to offer reasonable
facilities to transportation on the
river."
Some members favor the mayor's
plan or rebuilding the present city
hall, while others believe that a new
bonding should be erected. -
A committee appointed at the regular
meeting of the council, composed of
Councilmen Metzner, Cox and Van
Aukeo, to Investigate the possibility
and feasabllity of the city purchasing
and acquiring perpetual title of water
front property will report soon.
