The charter presumes that the Mayor
and Board OF Trustees will assist each
other. and that the city shall in any i'm
portant matter have the benefit of their
united judgment and wisdom. OF course.
in the purchase of supplies of less than
Sl00 in value the Board may proceed
without the Mayors approval, But, as
the board may find it inconvenient to act
as body at all times, it will probably
find it easier to advertise for supplies and
let contracts to the lowest bidder. In
case where a committee acts. its actions
cannot bind the city until ratified by the
board in regular meeting bya vote of
not less than five members, and in this
event the city is bound by the ratification
and not by the original action Of the COM
mittee. Respectfully submitted.

lives in the city, and wished to know if
any provision had been made for her
Tbe Mayor stated that the Board of
Supervisors had purchased a ticket for
her and she would be sent away as soon
as she was we'll enough.
He also recommended that the ordi-
nance with regard to throwing garbage
into the streets and alleys and the trim
ming of trees be enforced.
He also reported that the parties having
wooden ratings on their balconies, which
had been complained OF, We're about to
remove them.
He also moved that arbitrators be APP
pointed to settle damages on the claim OF
B. Labs, for land taken by the city for a
road.
Clinton L. White, attorney for Mr..
Labs. proposed a plan for selecting arbi-
traitors. as he thought II was better than
the usual method of appointing them.
Mr.. Labs said he thought the city
should pay him 500.
Several mem bers of the board thought
that a Oretty steep price for so small q
piece of land in that locality.
Lawton asked if Labs saloon did not
stand on the city's ground at present, and
Labs said it did not.
White agreed to the city appointing one
man and Labs one, they to agree on u
third if they could not agree. The Mayor
named President Lawton, and as Mr.
White preferred to wait little, he Will

that the provision with regard to the track
was put IN after the contract was made.
AS the city will be benefited to the ex-
tent of ., 400. he thought il hardly fair to
place that burden on the company, as it
would probably cost about $780, 1t was
not contemplated in the bids. The COM
pany might be willing to meet half the
cost.
The company would also like to have
its checks returned as soon as the con-
tract was signed.
on motion of Tozer the President was
authorized to sign the contract after the
objectionable clause was stricken out
and the checks were ordered returned
