CIVIC IMPROVEMENT CRUSADE SMEO BY COUNCILMEN Benches Muet Be Removed from Main Street Walks Property Owners Must Repair Sidewalks -Sewer Connaotlona Ordered No Freight on Walka. A busy session was the unad journed council meeting of last Monday evening, at which all the city officers were present ex cept Councilman J. A. Scott. As the result of this meeting five saloon licenses were grantedto the following firms-W. H. Sear cy & Co., E..C. Rogers, Campbell Bros., George Wassqn, and P1ntK Ttma : all nf whom took out a three-months license at the rate of $1000 per annum. Since the Supreme Court had passed the Medford decision and since Condon's charter is similar to that of Medford the city coun cil believes it has the right to grant licenses and thus secure the much needed revenue. An ordinance was drawn up regu lating the saloons and same was passed, restricting the saloons to five and also protecting them in as far as they comDlied with the provisions of the ordinance. The saloons must close at 1 A. M. and also Sundays as well as rim strict places of business Although the license question was the main object of, the meet ing much other business was - transacted and the session was "made a lengthy one. A. S. Rice was given the contract of spread ing crushed rock on lower Main St as advertised during the past week. Wm. Cook also made a bid but Mr. Rice was awarded the contract at $1.30 per yard, the covering of rock to be eight inches thick. The work will be delayed as no contract has been signed. Much time was given to the discussion of the water rate as per meter reading for the John Harrison ice t1ant and it was decided that the balance of $92.50 as given by the meter, was a fair rate and the same ordered collected. The council, uoon the advice of several citizens present, start ed upon a crusade movement which will mean much to the ap pearance and sanitary condition of the city as well as for the comfort of its residents. The city marshal was ordered to have removed all the benches along Main Street, as they were a nuisance, serving only to gath er a crowd and blocking the side walks to the hindrance of pedes trians. The marshal was also instructed to notify certain bus iness houses to restrain from pa ins: ud freight in front of their warehouses and thereby blocking the sidewalks as has been the custom heretofore. Owners of bad sidewalks will be notified unless their walks are repaired and put in safe condition. 4 'Nails must be driven down and broken boards replaced," said the coun cilmen in unison. The Condon Steam Laundry and certain other places of business were ordered to make sewer connections .with the city main before the first of December or the same would be made by the city and charged to the property owners. other were seen to advantage. Beautiful festoons of chrys anthemums and flags adorned the table, while tricolor streamers strunof from the chandelier over the center of the table to all sides of the ro m, added to the decor ative scheme of the evening. . Seated around the banquet table were Misses Lillian Ranney and Fitzmaurice, Messrs. J. E. Burdett, R. M. Rogers, G. S. Taylor, N. Laughrige, Meresse, SwafTord. Keene. Page. Elston, S. Campbell, Cooper, and H. A. Hartshorn. After the banauet Miss Ranney delighted those present with several piano selections after which all joined in singing old familiar songs, ending with 'Sweet Dreams, Bryan."
