Fire Ordinance Read.
The fire ordinance, which was
read for the second time, including
all two story buildings inhabitated
by hotel people or rooming house
proprietors, requiring them to have
suitable fire escapes, was discussed
and an amendment was offered but
the council postponed amending of
the ordinance until the next regular
meeting. Mr. Soehrcn thought it
advisable to Include all buildings in
town a well as the rooming houses
and hotels.
The amount of J210, which Is in
the library fund, was turned over
to the library board for the use
of maintaining the library.
The council was waited upon by
a body of citizens who were dis
satisfied with the cement walks re
cently laid by Pugh & Sauer, bring
ing objections because the surface
of the walks are crumbling. Sev
eral citizens thought it Impossible
to repair the walks and heated ar
guments followed. The report of
City Engineer Ed Himes stated that
the walks could be satisfatorily
remedied for three cents per
square foot when suitable weather
conditions would permit the repair.
I Mr. Himes stated that the cause of
the deterioration .fas due to
sprinkling the top surface too soon
after the walks had been laid and
traffic upon the walks before they
were feet.
A. J. Mott, who runs a second
hand store, accused the city engi
neer of neglect in not causing the
contractors and their employes to
lay the walks in first class condi
tion. Mr. Mott dealt in pcrsonall
ua rt til, nvipiit. that caused Coun
cilman Moore to resent his remarks
and suggested that the city engi
neer's report be considered and
that the necessary money be with
held from the sum due the contrac
tors until they repair the walks in
the spring. Upon motion by Coun
cilman Muir, the report or tne cuy
engineer was adopted after which
the dissatisfied citizens dispersed.
The resignation of City Attorney
Kd F. Coad. was read and accepted
Unrl th,. fintinlntment of a city at
torney was laid over until the next
regular meeting.
On report ot the Duagot commit
tee it was Bscertalned that the bud
get was too high, they having fig
ured on a valuation of $1, 100,000;
the valuation set by the commission
being $1,064,000. As a result of
the difference in the valuation, a
levy of 14.1 mills was adopted and
the library and street funds re
duced to comply with the amount
accessable. The program of the
street improvement which has been
contemplated for the ensuing year
was presented and the auditor was
instructed to notify the property
owners of the Intended improve
ments so that the resolution for the
improvements could be presented
at the next meeting.
