At the regular meeting ol tho city
council litHt night thero were present
Mayor Kinehart, and Councilmen Joles,
I.uuer, J'.uttH, Kreft, Hudaon and Eah
elinan, the full board.
A petition wuh presented for an arc
light at the corner of Third and Liberty
Hireeih, signed hy many lnlluential cit
izetiH; referred to committee on HcrcetH
and jmblic property.
The committee on flues asked for fur
iner tune. .mi. .loies tiKKcu it it was
meant to enforce all houaeowners having
terra cotta flucfi to repluce them with
unci:, ami was mionueu by the mavor
that it was merely the intention to pre
vent new residences from having terra
cottu flues put up.
Street Commissioner Maddron then
read hiH report, specifying several side
walks that were dangerous. In this
connection Aid. J.auer said that many
of these Hiune sidewalks have been thus
reported for a year, but all efforts to
have them rebuilt or repaired have been
fruitless. He wanted now to make a
business of it and have these walks at
tended to at once if there wuh any ordi
dinanco for It, and if there was not to
draft one that would cover it. The
council had dilly-dallied long enough,
and he wanted to Htop referring it to
committees and gel down to good, solid
btthinesH. The discussion got to be gen
eral on this Hiibject, and there seemed
to be a unanimous desire to dispense
with Home of our disgraceful sidewalks
in the shortest possible time. Aid.
Joles gave an instance of where a Port-!
land man named McKay bad got out of
rebuilding a good sidewalk on Second j
street bv Cross' grocery by promising to !
erect a brick building thereon lr.st fall.
Aid. Kreft said that a certain citizen
who has a large, now tootiiy hotiso said
he would not lix up bis sidewalk nor
lear away the rubbish in the street bo-
cause "ho was nuiKting, ' ami the coun-
ilman wanted to know if this excuse
would he good for two years, it was
finally agreed to notify all parties re
ported to have dangerous sidewalks to
ebuild them within tho Hunt of time
spceilied by law, and that tho sheet
commissioner should enter upon tins
pleasant duty at once.
Tho mayor brought up again tho sub
ject ot sewers, and specuied several
places whore I hero woto troughs empty

air III populous portions "i uiu eiiy, in
short distances from tho oU'oiided noses
nf ni'imlo sleeniiii: and living. Ho men
tioned sevoi al cases of sickness which
ho found attributable to theso foul
odors, and especially desired tho coun
cil to frame legiHlation that would
remedy these things at once. "It is a
little short of murder," said tho mayor,
"to permit the further existence of these
open sowers, and much sickness is duo
to nothing else but inhalations of this
rotten dirty water." HoHpokoof tho
Chinese gulden next to the European
house; that tho Chinamen used tilth to
nourish their vegetables, and then sold
it out to the ignorant whites. ThM
while the vegetable itself was not af
fected from growing out of the filth, its
exterior wuh coated with the gas arising
from it, pititiculurly lettuce and cab-
Imce. und was dangerous to eat. Also
that he whh informed, on account of the
fearfully loud mnell one warm night
from the end of the Union street sower
buck of Mra. Urittaiu'H lodging house, the
cccnpantB thereof woio compelled to
desort thohouso. A motion was accord
ingly mndo to have these sowers length
oncd out ut once to tho present stage of
the water and to follow the water as it
recedes until the ends of the scwcth are
all under low water mark.
The following communication was
then read, signed by V. K. Kinchart,
Orion Kincrsly and K. H. Dufur:
We, the undersigned citizens and
property owners, having at an expcns.o
of $l.",0, constructed an incline under tho
edge of tho blnfTon a lino of Fifth street
and extending from tho head of Lnmrh
I n street adjacent to the rock wall of
V. Vj. Kinchart to the head of Federal,
hereby donate tho same to Dalles City.
On motion it was referred to commit
tee on streets and public property.
lho property in the recorder's office
belonging to Frank Menefco and con
jniauiiK in uilllOS, siieiving, etc., WUH
onered tor sale for $47.r0. It appearing
that tho hrst cost wai considerably
more and that tho city needed the prop
mi, u. was purchased at the price
named.
At this point Aid. Kreft exploded the
bomb of the evening by announcing
that he had a report with him showing
that the city, under the administration
of Mayor Mays, consisting of Haight,
Williams, Wood,.loles, Kreft and Laucr,
had not received the credit due them
That instead, as was popularly supposed,
that they had run behind, they had
really cut down tho old debt of the city
over $3,800, but that the loss incurred
by the tire had directly and indirectly
footed up to over $11,000. Mr. Kreft
made the foregoing statement with a
triumphant air and a flourish of the re
port, and his face was pitiless as he
noticed the look of consternation on the
faces of all present. It was a knock eut
blow, and so befuddled were the council
! as a whole that thev didn't know what
to do with it. A motion finally carried
to offer it to The Dalles press for publi-
tion. See full statement in another
column.
Aid. Hudson moved that the marshal
and street commissioner commence to
morrow, August -1th, upon the duties of
notifying parties against whom com
plaints bad been made for defective
sidewalks and sewers.
The committee on impounding stock
presented their leport in the manner of
an ordinance of 17 sections. On motion
it was laid on the table.
Aid. Hudson spoke of tho indefinite
and imperfect reports of various officers
and Eaid that for his part, he wanted to
know definitely just what had been done
and when it was done by the parties
submitting such reports. He was sus
tained by the other councilmen in short
speeches, but no motion was made.
Mayor Ilinehart then spoke of a mat
ter of charity, where he had furnished
the family of a worthless husband and
father with a bill of groceries, amount
ing to about $10. No action was taken,
as such cases come before the county
court.
Aid. Lauer spoke of the importance of
at once securing the patent nozzle and
holder, which had been voted a long
time since, but never procured. The
pioper committee was instructed to pro
cure it.
Aid. Kreft made a motion to appro
priate the sum of $00 for the firemen's
tournament. It was seconded, but Aid.
Hudson made such a ringing speech
against it that not even the mover of the
motion found courage to say "aye"
when the vote was called. The howlers
for economy, hud they heard him, would
have hidden their diminished heads,
but as they were not present, they will
have, as usual, the benefit of ignorance
to make just whatever kind of a story
they choose to weave for the delectation
of readers of certain papers, the repre
sentatives of whom are likewise as In
different about witnessing city legisla
tion. Apropos, an italicised bon mot ap
appeared in the Sun this week about
Hinehart, Kinetsly and Dufur's private
sidewalk, and the ghastly joke was
sprung about some mythical person sup
posing It to bo a city improvement. Jt
was very funny to all those people ig-j
noraut enough to habitually rend the
Sun, but falls very Hat upon all those
who know tho facts. It was considered
that $C0 would bo but a bagatelle to
donate for such a purpose, and that tho
city finances would not justify the ap
propriation of a sutiablo sum. Again,
500 or more had been already subscribed
by various citizens and to strike them
for moio even in an indirect manner
would bo unfair. Kreft thought tho
kick made under a cowardly jioi tie
illume was very small potatoes. The
councilmen do not get a cent for their
labors, and they frequently neglect
their business to attend to committee
work or scrutinize something in a dis
tant part of the city, chase information
or hunt statistics. Considering all this
who but a chronic kicker would ever
think of objecting to a trifle of $50 for a
slight courtesy to our nation's distin
guished defenders. VVoi pudor! Such
a mini's soul must bo of microscopic di
mensions. Compare this pftiful sum
with what other cities do. The motfon
lost unanimously to appropriate money
for the touriuuiient.
