Action Taken.
The Council Concludes to Pay Les for
Electric Lights Dr. Get Along

OThe city council metWednesdad in reg
ular session. Aldermen Joscslyn, Nc
Donald, Williams, Roberts, Young and
Fitzgerald answered to their m and
Aldermen Hansen and Sullivan we're
noted as absent.
The reports of city officers we're taken
up. The police magistrates report
showed S24S collected on fines during
August. The city marshal reported Ill
arrests. The city %treasurer's report
showed 35,676.25 on hand.
The fire marshal reported the necessity
of tightening the fire alarm wires on the
telephone poles and the matter was re-
ferred to the proper committee with
power to act.
The city engineers report took strong
ground in reference to the ACCESSIBILITY
of substituting granite crossings for
wooden pavement at street crossings on
Central avenue. The increased cost, he
claimed, would be amply repaid in dura.
bility. The council, however, declined
to consider the matter as this specifica-
ton had been already discussed and
eliminated from the specifications for
paving Central venue The report
showed that S9621 had been spent for
sidewalk repairs on the last three months
and that many sidewalks and street
crossings were worn out and required
~relaying. The recommendations Of the
city engineer were finally referred to a
committee for a report at the next meet.
ing.
The poundmaster's report showed a
discrepancy between the number of
dogs reported killed and the number Of
tails produced as evidence thereof and
the matter was referred to Alderman
Young as acting tail inspector to investi-
gate and report.
Maurer Bros. we're granted a permit
to put up a buggy shed 8xlO in the rear
Of their place on Centarl avenue.
Alderman Fitzgerald SAID it was nee
cessary to purchase another hose cart at
an expense of about 5000. In case of
two fire breaking out at once the de-
partment would be helpless. The clerk
was instructed to get prices.
The vexed matter Of saloons on the
North side was once more taken up. BY
a unanimous vote the petition Of Peter
Vonbank for a saloon license was denied.
1t was the sentiment of the council that
all saloon licenses already granted on the
North side should be revoked, but as
some of them had paid a years license
in advance it was a question whether
his could be legally done before their
expiration, and the matter was laid over
till the return of the city attorney, who
is absent from tho city.
No action was taken on Henry Vogel's
bond The signers were Fred Bosh,
Jacob Switzer, Albert Kleinschmidt,
and George Herman, all of Helena.
A long discussion ensued on the ques-
ton of entering into a contract with the
electric light company for street light
ing. 1t was decided to offer Sl1,50 per
month in warrants for each arc light.
If not satisfactory all lights will be dis
continued for the present.

TOWNSHIP NOMINATIONS,

The Republicans Put Up a Township
Ticket Last Night at Judge Races Office.
After the republican county conven-
ton adjourned Tuesday the city dele
gates gathered together at Judge Races
office to put up a township ticket. There
we're four candidates for justice of the
peace and seven candidates for constable.
Charles Meeks served notice on the re.
publicans that the colored people were
about tired Of making bricks without
STRAW for the republican party and de-
manded recognition for his race.
G. M. Webster thought the least they
could do for Joe Hounston after leaving
him out in the cold for clerk and re-
corder was to give him a nomination as
constable. Accordingly Joe Houston
and VIM. Morgan were nominated for
constables and Judge Race and G. II.
Grove were nominated for Justices of
the Peace. AS this was all the offices
the meeting had to give out a good many
disappointed aspirants were left without
even a crumb Of comfort.
