AT the meeting of the city council
last evening there was some criticism
of Street Supervisor Mulloy. and tae
manner in which the streets are sprin-
killed. also came in for some considera-
ton, and several new streets were
added to the present sprinkling dis
tricts.
The absentees were Lloyd, wiscomb
and Morris.
MORE SPRINKLING.
The sprinkling committee precipi
tated the discussion by presenting a
report asking that the following streets
be sprinkled in addition to the regular
districts: Ninth South from Fifth
East to Ninth East; Eighth East from
Fifth South 10 Ninth South Third
West from Second North to Sixth
South; Fourth West from South Tenn
pie to Third South; Fifth West from
First South to Third South: First
North from Second West to Seventh
West; North Temple from Second West
to Seventh West; First South from
Fourth West to Seventh West; Second
South from Fifth West to Seventh
West; Fourth South from Second West
to Fourth West; Second North from
Third West to Sixth West Second
from r to s; S from First to Second;
First from s to T; Seventh South from
State to Fifth East; Seventh South
from Sixth East to Seventh East; Sew
enth East from Fifth South to Seventh
South; Ninth East from Fifth South TO
Sixth South; Ninth East from Seventh
South to Ninth South.
OBJECTIONS RAISED.
The report provided that this sprink-
ling be let at the regular rate per
block under the contract with Griffin.
The report met with objections from
Dale, Romney and Stewart. The man
being done was unsatisfactory, they
said, and furthermore if the proposed
districts be added the city would be
paying more for this work during the
present year than any previously.
After some debate a, motion to refer
the report to the street committee was
lost by a tie vote. as was also a. mo-
ton to defer action for one week. The
report was then adopted-S to 6.
Shortly afterwards Stewart offered
resolution instructing the street su-
pervisor to see if the streets were be-
ing properly sprinkled under the con-
tract.
Dale came forward with a substitute,
for the street committee to
make an investigation into the matter
of the sprinkling, and also to ascer-
tain if the street supervisor was doing
his duty in looking after the sprinkling.
SUPERVISORS DEPARTMENT.
Mr.. Dale supplemented his resolu-
ton by the statement that he was get
ting tired of the manner in which Su-
pervisor Mulloy was conducting his
department. The speaker said he had
never approached Mr.. Muiioy and
asked him a question but that he had
received an Incivil reply 1t was high
time that someone turned the super
visor. If necessary the speaker said
he would be one of committee to go
to the mayor and ask that someone
else be appointed as street supervisor.
Other members spoke in the same
VEN as Mr.. Dale.
Mulvey championed the street supervis-
or's course in mild way, saying he had
known him TO travel about on the streets
a good deal looking after the sp1nkling
and collection of poll tax.
Daie,s resolution carried, Mulvey and
Newell voting against it.
A resolution by Buckle authorizing the
city engineer to make preparations for
the Fifth South street sewer
with the gravity outlet as soon as the
former is in readiness was passed with
out objection.
PARK KEEPER.
Diehl offered the following resolution,
which was passed:
Resolved, That the board of fire and
police commission be requested to APP
point MIR. Williams, the present keeper
of Liberty park, and one other park en-
pioyee, to be recommended by Mr. Will
an.s as special policeman without extra
pay"
A special appropriation of S6S543 to p.
j. Moran for water pipe, was passed.
