Fischer, former owner and oper ator of the Fischer flouring mill at SUverton, appeared before the city council at its November meet ing Monday night to ask it the city would be interested In re pairing the old flour mill dam to prevent gravel from filling up the swimming pool as it has in former years. Fischer explained that such repairs would come to be tween S700 and $800 and that whoever took hold of the mill again would reimburse the city at that tinfe. The city could hold the dam, he said, until such re imbursement could be made. Dr. C. R. Wilpn, park commit tee member of the city council, explained that his committee had engineered a six-foot dam above the pool which the committee hop ed wtmld prevent gravel from tumbling Into the pool as it had done in former years. Some doubt was expressed should the remain der of the old Fischer dam go out, and Otto Legard, council member, suggested that the Sil verton chamber of commerce might be interested in helping to rebuild the dam that the pool would be insured against gravel. The pool, it was explained, is one of the very big drawing cards to Silverton for four months out of the year. Hear Mrs. Blackerby Mrs. Sophia Blackerby appear ed before the council in regard to cutting the corner of her Mc Claine street property to improve the curve there. The matter had been brought for consideration at an earlier council meeting, and Hugh Range, council member in charge of the Improvement, re ported that Mrs. Blackerby, aft er giving permission to cut the corner, had stopped the work un til she could get a written state ment of just how much was to be removed. Friends of hers, she reported Monday night, had ad vised her to get this as other wise more might be taken than at first discussed verbally. Mrs. Blackerby referred to Mr. Range's conduct as being "uncourteous and unfair". Mr. Range offered apology for any "uncourteus and unfair" treatment, which he as sured Mrs. Blackerby had been wholly unintentional and that the entire matter was evidently some what misunderstood. Mrs. Black erby assured the council she had no intention of charging for the property. The report on securing non- skid surfacing "bn the corner for the winter, proved unfavorable as Mayor Garver gave the informa tion that the county had disman tled its machinery and used up all its oil, but that next May con sideration would be given to the Silverton corners should It be de sired at that time. M. G. Gunderson, city treasur er, reported that steps should be taken to care for the unpaid bal ance of Improvement bonds due January 1, 1936. The matter will be taken up later, according to the decision of the council. Following the report of the Ju diciary committee on en ordin ance requesting license for plum bers within Silverton. the peti tion was tabled. The council voted to waive, again the franchise on the spur track to the Fischer Flouring mill upon request of Alfred A! Hamp ton, representing the Southern Pacific company.

D. Quisenbury to open ' a pack age liquor store at 207 N. Water street was granted. This store was formerly occupied by an ice cream plant which closed its doors a few weeks ago. A letter from L. Yates, street commissioner, reported a number of sidewalks out of repair at Sil verton, among then) one on prop erty belonging'to the city itself at 430 N. Church street. The coun cil members suggested that the city repair its sidewalk; at once to set a good example and then instructed the recorder to notify these people to either repair or rebuild their walks within 30 days. Urges Street Repairs A letter signed by , Lowell Brown of the Interurban Tele phone company, urged the city to go ahead with its repairing of Mc- Clalne street. The letter' gave the information that the telephone company had gone to the expense of moving corner poles at a cost of $25 and would appreciate it if the work in improving the street would be continued at once. The letter was ordered placed on file. I i The city body declared the house belonging to W. E. Baxter on Mill street a "nuisance" and ordered the owner; to either re pair or remove it at once.
