SPRAY -WVNNE COMPANY • •••• Rugs REMONSTRANCE IS TURNED DOWN. M A R R IED . The city council met in regular session Tuesday evening. A re monstrance against paying more than $1.75 per square yard for pav ing on Main street and more than 5% per cent interest on bonds for the same was presented by some of the property owners on Main street. This remonstrance was read and declared lost on the grounds that it was not strong enough to justify other actiou. A remonstrance against paving East Fourth street was read aud tabled, time for its filing having expired. Arc lights were asked for at the corner of Fifth and Wynne streets and at Burkholder’s residence, and tUe matter was referred to street committee with power to act. Bids for the construction of the new west side sewer lateral were as follows: H. Yenske, $392.50; H. C. Hart, $.511.75. Contract award ed to Mr. Hart. The city engineer was instructed to prepare plans and specifications for a concrete abutment or pier at the east end of the Main street river bridge, that permanent] street paving and concrete walks tuay he completed up to the river bank. Dr. Schleef and A. II. King agree to contribute $75 and $25 respec tively toward this improvement, as they have proiierty at the approach of the bridge.
