At a meeting Of the city council las
evening, q resolution was passed author
izing the payment Of $40 per arc lamp 70
lighting the streets OF the city dnrinI
the month OF July. The electric high
company hesitated for a time as i
whether it would accept the proposition
or not, but out OF considerations for tn
people, the good name OF the city an,
the convenience Of our Chautauqua Wis
itors, it concluded to go to the extra Oh
pense and trouble of fitting for on
month. The matter is also a concession
on the part OF the council, as they yield
ed the position they had taken ia
enough TO grant the old price Of $40 pc
month, even for a month. 1t is hope
that these mutual concessions will lea
to a permanent agreement after tn
month 10 out.
