ALDERMAN NICHOLS HAS AN IDEA.
A resolution presented by Alderman
Nichols was passed instructing the COM
missioner OF public works to report to
either branch OF the City Council on the
feasibility OF uniforming the day laborers
employed in the department under his
control. A letter from Colonel Waring of
New York accompanied the resolution.
An abstract OF the communication Is as
follows:
~ determined, after good deal of Oh
servation ana experience, that they
should, first OF all. be made conspicu-
Gus, and, secondly, that they should
be made always not only to look clean,
but to be clean. There was great opposi-
tion In every quarter to the suggestion
OF clothing street sweepers in white, but
so far as / know, that opposition has
entirely passed; and OF the very large
number OF persons actively interested in
everything that the department does, or
has done, the great majority say that
the most successful move that has been
made. and the most useful thing done,
has been the uniforming OF the men IN
white.
'Eacn man has two suits, and they are
obliged to appear at the morning roll
call in cieanly and tidy condition.
suppose the washing averages two suits
a week, but no ironing Is required, and
never hear Of complaints being made by
the men that the washing is a burden.
"The uniform consists OF two suits,
blouse and trousers, $3.50; one cap with
moncgrams 80, Ave monogram buttons,
With rings, to transfer from one suit to
another, .2S, one white belt with nickel
plated clasp SO. Total, s42s.
1.-THE men pay for the uniforms"
The Mayor appointed Walter G. Darling
as clerk Of Ward Three, district I and
the Board approved.
