CITY COUNCIL
MEETING
Liquor License Committee
(irants Six Licensci Lee
Mitiard Withdraws His Ap
plication and Neil Cum
mins is Refused a
Renewal.
The City Council at its meeting
laht Wednesday night accepted the
resignation of City hngtneer Taylor
At the meeting Monday night
the resignation of councilman of
the 3rd ward, Hinds, was presented.
and upon motion the resignation
was accepted.
I Vnminal ijinn In Tilt tli varancv
piincipHl,(t.jnK jn ordcr( counciliran John
son nominated Cbas. Van Denberg,
anil there Leing no other nomina
tions, the matter was put to vote
and the recorder was instructed to
cst. the ballot for Mr. Van Den
berg, as councilman for the 3rd
wurd.
Smo discussion was entered into
with rugard to whether the city
should reconnect Wm. Conner's and
MKIilvray's houses with the new
water system free of charge, in view
of the fact that by removing the
pret'Mit main their houses would be
diHi-onuected, and much incon
venience caused them. After some
various statements, the matter was
reterred to the water commianioners.
It stems that the present pipeline
t uns just back of their houses a few
feet, and that when the main is re
moved, connections will have to be
made to the new line in the middle
ol the street in front of the house
some 65 feet away, and that tho
yards will have to be dug through
to remove the old main.
Contractor Lee was instructed to
replace tbe wooden pipe leading
from the reservoir with iron pipe as
per coutract.
The fetreet commissioner was in-
some hxed sum the yearly license,
niHtead of a ranging scale of prices,
land, Mugene and other towns is
I50 per year.
Mr. Milne stated to one of the
V V
f wllr
aldormcu that tho hall had p:id in
the last year just fc? after licensr-n, '
lltfht and heat were di'dticted. Some J
of the aldermen favored a yarlyj
rate of $50 othcrn tliMU'.rht all j
should ha gotten that could tens-
onably, and laid the matter on tin
table until the next meet if;;.
A warrant was ordtted i
Mr. Hart for 7f, on hi stwtr con
tract.
The couneil then adjourned V

these cryfct'ds are whitish, instead

curios, were an ivory windlass

good showing of the wei.lt h of the

In Deposits.
W. V. Hammond who recer.'ilv
returned to Seattle from Alaska
says that the tid ore placer deposits
ef that district are spread oyer an
area of 15 miles by ten. and that the

various points in the York mountain Hitherto this organization ha3 ma le
range to the eastward, but so far
the main ledges have not been un -
covered. The placer fields them -
selves are so large, however, an .1
easily worked, that quartz mining
is not likely to be attempted for
some time."
W. II. Abr ams has gone to Port
land to visit tbe Fair, and durin
his absence the mill is shut
down.
although work is plentiful. He
concluded if he was going to take
in the Fair he better get at it.
