After the passing of bills, the
consideration of ordinances was
taken up, and three new laws went
to final reading by sections, and
were passed. Ordinance No. 124,
providing for the procedure of the
council in the passing of ordinances;
No. 125, repealing ordinance 42, in
conflict with No. 124; and Ordi
nance No. 126, providing for the
construction and repairing of side
walks, constitute the three laws
passed.
' The improvement and clean-up
bee is busily buzzing about the ears
of the city council and there will
be something doing in that line
before long.
The committee on streets and
public property were empowered
to proceed with the repair of streets
and to incur all expense necessary
in making repairs and improve
ments. As it is understood at the pres
ent, these improvements will con
sist in re-grading Main street and
perhaps one or two side streets,
street leading from the power house
south as far as the city limits. The
roadbed is to be graded down and
widened so that there may be room
for a double track. This is an im
provement much desired by all
people coming and going oyer this
road, and if the county will join on
and continue the work a mile or so
beyond the city limits it will make
it much easier on people coming to
town that way. and home again
Just as yet the council does not
see fit to begin the work of macad
amizing the street?, but they are
giving the matter favorable consid
eration and will take the steps
necessary to at once look up the
probable cost of a rock crusher and
a steam roller, and may before long
take the work up in earnest, when
they feel that the finances of the
town will justify the expensa. buf-
fioe to say the council have the
right mind in this matter and pro
pose to do permanent woik just as
soon as possible.
A general clean-up day will be
declared soon and a determined
effort for a more cleanly and bean
tiful city is to be made, the coun
cil offering all the encouragement
possible at their command.
The city attorney was instructed
to tak up the matter of renewing
the lease with Morrow county for

the number of passengers carried was

is said, will not exceed a billion more.
Many other railroads have gone

any of its passengers, but it is said that
no system has made this record for
such a lare total of passengers.
