From the present outlook the
regular first meeting of the month)
of tho city council next Tuesday
night will not have much new j
Important business up for discus-!
slon and the session will be given
over mostly to routine business.
However, the luncheon meeting
of tho city council to be held nt
the Hotel Holland tomorrow noon
for tho purpose of lining up mat
ters to be considered at the coun
cil meeting, in accordance with
the new administration's policy
of holding such a luncheon meet
ing on the Monday before every
regular council meeting, may
alter thin situation.
So far as can be learned no
man has yet been decided on for
appointment to the city water
commlshlon vacancy created by
the resignation of K. C. fJaddis
about six weeks ago. It is gossip
that the mayor and council will
hav at least one other vacancy
to fill In a minor city position soon,
caused by a coming resignation.

west, will be abolished in Hamil
