Attorney W. 11. Wilson of The Dulles and Engineer Paget assisted ti e committee with the work of form ing the subdivisions and determining the tjoundary lines and locutions of tlie sewers hs required in minute do t:iil by the charter amendment. The repoit of the committee was submitted to the council and accepted on motion of McDonald. Kecorder Niekolsou then plod led wearily through a dozen pages of typewritten iranuscript, defining the boundaries of tbo subdivisions, while Councilman McDonald traced the lines on an oltl ciul blue print cn the wall of the council chamber. Four typewritten copies of the spe cial sewer ordinance will be made and posted in public places according to law. Six days will then be given to hear objections from the property holders, before assessments will be levied and bids asked for the con struction of the system. Ordinance No. 101 went on to third reading and final passage, which grants the Pacific States Telephone and Telegraph Co. the right to main tain and operate a telephone and tele graph system in the city of Hood Kiver, the privilege to exist for a per iod of 121) ' em's, with the understand ing that the jiresont rates of the com pany shall not be increased during that time, and that the city be grant ed certain free uses of the phone sys tem tor fire and police purposes. Kecorder Nickelsen's report, cover ing the period from June 110 to Otco ber 1, was read and referred to the linunce committee. Mayes for the committee on streets and rjublio property leported that the work of removing certain buildings which stood in the streets of the city whs well u :der way. The street com missioner expected to have the work completed in a few days. Or 'inance No, 102, which provides that application shall be made to the city officials before the streets of the town shall be disturbed for the pur pose of laying water, gas or sewer mains or latorals, and the manner of procedure in this work, was read the llrst time and referred back to the judiciary committee. A. W. Outhank, as chairman of the committee of the Commercial club, named to preseut the matter of a pub lie, library to the city councli after t lio manner outlined by the state li brary commission, addressed the council ou the mattor. Ou motion of Councilman Karly the subject was re ferred to the judiciary committee. As the city would have to raise at least SrUU before anything could be done towt.rd securing a public library, and as other very important improve ments are now under way, it is the sentiment of many of the influential citizens that it would lie unwise to consider the library proposition just at preseut. Claims against the city were allow ed by the councilemn as follows: Lukiu, labor ou walk, 9 1.50 K. K.
