All street paving companies are now
Invited to bid upon the work of Im
proving Main and Court streets, for
last night the council passed a reso
lution to that effect The action waa
taken In accordance with the plan de
cided on last Friday night. The com
panies have 10 days In which to sub
mit their proposals. Their bids must
be for work upon .the streets as they
now are, and must also provide a
drainage system.
The resolution waa passed by unani
mous vote of the council, and the
foes of paving can no longer object
on the ground that one company is
being favored.
Also, an ordinance was presented
lart evening by City Attorney Carter,
In which the specifications for the
various forms at paving are given.
However, as there were some blanks
to be filled In, It waa referred to the
street committee and will be preesnt
ed next time. Its failure to pass last
night will not delay matters any, as
It may yet be passed before the bids
are received.
Improve East Court.
Second in Importance to the request
for paving bids, was the resolution
which the council passed last night
ordering the macadamlting of East
Court street. The district Is from
the west side of Vincent street to the
end of Court, a distance of 18 blocks.
It Is to be macadamised In accord
ance with the specifications previously
announced. There Is to be a concrete
curb on. each side of the street, ex-
t ceptlng In front of the mill property.
Will They Remonstrate?
When the resolution was first pre
sented last night Councilman Renn
objected, ylng the step should not
be taken until the business part of the
street wan ordered Improved, or the
outside owners would remonstrate. A
conference followed between' the
members of the street committee, and
the same objection was made by
Councilman Ferguson and others.
Will It lllook Paving?
However, Mayor Fee and Council
man Murphy both Insisted that the
action be taken, Murphy claiming
that the general proposal for paving
bldn would show that the business
part was likewise to be . Improved.
The resolution was finally passed
without opposition. It will be pub
lished for 10 days, during which
time the property owners may remon
strate if they wish. What effect the
East Court street action will have on
paving, remains to be seen.
' New Grade for Cole's Addition.
At the Instance of the street com
mittee an ordinance accepting a new

tion was pasued. . It was presented
three years ago, but action withheld.

house Immigration committee will be
prepared to report an Immigration
bill In a few days, providing for im
portant changes In the laws. A suhr
committee Is now considering the
dozen or more bills before the com
mittee, and from this number a gen-'
eral bill will be framed. Chairman
Howell hopea to have the bill on the
house calendar this week. So far aa
the committee has gone, the bill re
ported will be essentially different
from the recommendations of the Im
migration, -bureau. :
The -majority of the members of
the committee are In favor of a head
tax of $5. This will, undoubtedly, be
one of the provisions of the bill. An
other provision will, probably require
that immigrants shall have a certain
amount of pocket money with them,
when they arrive here. The amount
now favored Is $50 for the heads of
families. The object of this provision
is to keep out the poverty-stricken
class and also to prevent violations

the bill for an educational test of the

effort to have the bill so framed aa
largely to restrict the volume of Im

committee are In favor of regulations
Insuring physical mental and moral
soundness, regardless of the number
of people admitted.
