This meeting was called for the pur-
pose of listening TO a proposal offered
to be made by MIR. w. Z. Petrie, agent
for Fairbanks, Morse q Co, of Chicago
in regard to putting in a system of
waterworks. Messrs Schreiner and
Richard Meyer,Jr., part of committee
who were chosen at a Citizens meeting
about two years ago to investigate as TO
proper system of waterworks suitable
for the City of Lancaster, were also
present. MIR. Petrie suggested that the
first necessary step to be taken, he
would advise to send an engineer to
make survey and other Investigations,
draw plans and make estimations as to
different systems. He further stated
that by doing so, the City could then
invite other firms to make estimates on
plans and specifications Sc obtained
The cost of sending an engineer here
to do the work as before stated would
be $50. Messrs Schreiner and Meyer
approving of this mode offered which
would give the City foundation to 90

thing in the way of erecting a system of
waterworks for tie protection of fire
or even to supply water for domestic
purposes. The Council upon motion,
all the members present voting aye,

presenting a beautiful gold-headed UNI
brella to President Chaves as a slight
testimonial OF the clerks and employees
to their president; and closing
with the happy remarks that
he hoped President Chaves would
use this valuable gift "along the beautiful
sun-kissed banks of the Rio Grande or in
the raining, stormy region of Santa Fe. !"
President Chaves in q very eloquent and
happy mood expressed his sincere and
heartfelt thanks to the clerks and en-
ployees for their appreciation of his feeble
efforts to perform his duty that their re-
lations had been exceedingly pleasant +;
and while he would highly appreciate
this valuable token, this moment would
be one of the happiest recollections of the
Goth legislative assembly.
Mr.. Antonio Lucero, with an appro-
pirate address, presented a fine gold head
ed cane to Mr.. Max Luna, and stated that
in remarkable degree, his case showed
the marked difference between education
and ignorance. Mr.. Luna replied, that
his heart was too full for utterance; but
he considered the browning act of this as
sembly was the passage OF the public
school bill that the youth of New Mexico
for generations to come would bless the
members of this assembly. Each of the
speakers was heartily applauded by the
large audience present. The meeting
then adjourned.
