IGLEHART STREET OWNERS
Revive an Offensive and Defensive
Organization.

About fifty owners of property on
Iglehart street, between Wabasha
street and Lexington avenue, assem-
bled in room 1,004, Pioneer Press build
ing, last night. The purpose of the
meeting was to gain an expression Of
the wishes of the property owners, rel
ative to the boulevarding and curbing
of Iglehart street.
1t seems that the common council,
acting without any petition on the part
of the property owners, has passed a
preliminary order for the boulevard
ing and curbing of the street from
Rice to Grotto street. The order is
now before the board Of public works,
which will grant hearing upon it in a
few days. A large majority of the
property owners present last night de-
clared themselves in favor of extending
the proposed improvement so as to
cover all that portion of Iglehart street
from Wabasha street to Lexington
avenue. The improvement contem-
plates tree planting as we'll as bOule-
varding and granite curbing. The op-
position that manifested itself last
night came principally from the own
erS of the property east Of Western
avenue, particularly between Earring
ton avenue and Louis street.
After a general discussion, a resOlu-
ton was adopted favoring the circula-
ton of a petition asking that Iglehart
street be boulevarded, granite curb
ing constructed and trees planted from
Wabasha street to Lexington avenue.
1t was understood that blank columns
will be provided in the petition to ena-
BILE the signers to indicate what width
of roadway they desire.
1t was also voted that the council
be requested to include all that por-
ton of the street between Wabasha
and Lexington avenue within what is
termed the stone sidewalk district
which means that all future sidewalks
laid within these limits be Of stone.
A motion that Iglehart street be
paved failed to receive a solitary vote,
the motion being put merely to ascer-
tain the sentiment of the meeting.
Just before adjournment, it was de-
cided to reOrganiZe the old Iglehart
Street Improvement association. w.
E. Bramball was elected president, ].
E. Stryker, vice president; Capt. I. l..
Mahan, secretary, and w. F. MoritZ,
treasurer.
The association will hold it's next
meeting at the chamber of commerce
building on Monday evening, Nov. 29.
In the matter of boulevarding and
curbing Iglehart street, from Rice to
Grotto, City Engineer Rundlett esti-
mated the expenses at $13, 1910. The
frontage is 1855 feet, and the cost
per foot $1.0S.
For macadamizing the street between
the above points, the additional ex-
pense would be S37,239 This addition
cost per foot would be So, or a total
estimate of $4.08 per foot.

BREEDERS AND FEEDERS OF
AMERICA TO MEET HERE IN
FEBRUARY.
IMPETUS OF A NEW MARKET
MAKES THIS A POINT OF VANTAGE
FOR SUCH A GATH
ERING.
GOV. CLoUGH HAS TAKEN 1T UP
rangements for the Coming
COncIave.

A convention of the live stock breed
and Canada will be held in st. Paul,
the date having been set for the third
week in January. The rapid growth of
the live stock industry Of the North
west has commenced to attract the at
tention of the breeders of pure FLOODED
stock all over the Union, and the estab-
lishment and growth of the stockyards
in the Twin Cities has created a mar
ket in the Northwest which will alb
sorb at the highest prices the best
grades that can be produced, If North
western farmers will breed the proper
kinds Of live stock and fatten them to
a condition which will bring the top
of the market. AS result, a number
of public-spirited citizens of the North
west, taking an interest in the growth
and increase of the live stock industry,
are making preparations for the Amer
lean Live Stock Breeders and Feed
ers' convention, to be held in this city
at the time above named.
Vice President McGinnis, of the state
agricultural society, has interviewed
prominent breeders, as we'll as the edit
ors of well known live stock papers in
the states east Of st. Paul and through
out the Mississippi valley, and they are
all very favorable to the holding of
such a convention. A council of ar
rangements has been formed, among
which are Gen. NJ. D. Flower, Stewart
L. Moore, A. B. Stickney and Gov. D.
M. Clough, who will act in conjunction
with those interested in improving the
breeds of live stock and in determining
the best methods of fattening the same
for market, and in fact discuss all
other matters calculated to encourage
the further development of the live
stock interest. The convention will be
national affair, attended by all the
noted live stock breeders throughout
the United States and Canada.

Chamber of Commerce Thinks the
Federal Building Small.


The chamber of commerce yesterday,
after a thorough discussion of the stu
alton, passed a resolution offered by
Mr. Lightner urging Minnesota's Yep
resentatives in congress to work for an
appropriation for the completion of the
new federal building. and then for an
addition to the Sixth street side.
Senator Davis, Congressman Stevens,
ex-Congressman Kiefer, Architect
Bassford and others were present by
invitation. Congressman Stevens said
that he had investigated and satisfied
himself that the DOStoffice alone de-
manded about % per cent. more space
than the ground floor Of the new build
ing, as at present planned, would af
ford. He quoted letter from Judge
Sanborn, of the United States circuit
court, respecting the occupancy of
part of the new building by the circuit
court Of appeals. Omaha and Denver,
the judge said, were both anxious to
take it from St. Paul, where it is now
in session about seven moths each year.
But the court would remain in st. Paul
were suitable facilities provided for it's
accommodation. Then, too, there
should be provision for dormitories for
the accommodation Of the railway mail
service, which was intended to be pro-
vided for in the building. Mr. Stevens
thought no pubic building bill would
pass if Speaker Reed could prevent it.
Senator Davis urged that it was most
important that the circuit court of ap-
peals be retained in this city.
Mr.. Cochran offered a resolution to
the effect that if the representatives
in congress found it impossible to Sc
cure an appropriation for the enlarge
ment of the new building on the Sixth
street side, the chamber recommend
that the government retain the old
building in service until such time as
the enlargement can be made.
Referred to the committee on mu-
nicipal affairs.
Mr. Feet offered a resolution asking
the charter commission to provide in
the new charter for an annual appro-
priation for public library purposes, of
an amount not more than one-half of
one mill and not less than one-fourth
of one mill on the dollar of the assess
ed valuation.
Referred to the committee on NUM-
cipal affairs.
The following were elected directors
of the chamber: William r. Dorr, Will
liam S. Flynt, Rukard Hurd, Paul H.
Gotham, F. J. Waterous, J. 3. Gable,
P. S. Mcgowan, Rev. J. J. LAWYER.
In addition to these, the following
were elected to membership: Oliver
Crosby, Gerhard Bohn, Dow S. Smith,

WEBSTER SCHOOL UNION.
1t Will Meet Four Times Year
Hereafter.

The Webster Public School union
held a meeting in the Webster school
last evening. There was large atten-
dance, and the attention to the sub
ject in hand bespoke the growing in
terest in the movement. The session
was opened by piano solo rendered
by Miss Young. Then followed a bust
ness meeting, during which the ex-
ecutive committee reported the reduc-
ton of the number of meetings from
five to four for the year. The remain
ing three will occur the second Mon
DAYS in January, April and June. After
a vocal solo by Prof. Congdon, Prof.
Curtis addressed the audience upon
the growth and development of peda-
gogical methods and the added intel
ligence with which the communities
control the schools. AS instances, the
speaker cited the advanced methods
of historical study and the general ia
vor with which artistic drawing is now
regarded. whereas it was vigorously
condemned when first introduced in the
East He also spoke of the benefits
of nature study for children, pointing
out it's psychological effects. The adj
dress was followed by a general discus
sion on different phases of the subject,

THEY TALK SCHOOLS
MEMBERS OF THE CONFERENCE
COMMITTEE DISCUSS BONDS
AND BUILDINGS,
COST PER CAPITA AND SUCH.
THE QUESTION OF SUBMITTING TO
A VOTE OF THE
PEOPLE
WHETHER WE SHALL ISSUE BONDS
Nothing Definite Was Done. rs the
Council Now Has the Matter
Before Them.

Nine Of the eleven members OF the
conference committee attended a ses-
sion of that body yesterday afternoon
Those absent were Mayor Doran and
President Arosin, of the assembly. In
the absence of the mayor, who acts
as chairman, President Copeland, of
the board of public works, presided
President WheelOck, of the park board,
and President Zimmerman, Of the
board of education, were not present
at the last meeting of the committee.
In consequence the resolution adopted
directing the council to take steps to
have the question of 100000 worth OF
bonds submitted to the voters at the
next city election was again brought
I'D. This resulted in a lengthy discus
sion, started by Mr.. Bement who said
a Judge Of the United States court had
informed him that the cost per capita
of maintaining the schools was great
er in st. Paul than in other cities of
a like size.
Comptroller McCardy stated in an
swer to questions Of Mr.. Wheelock that
the proposed issuance of bonds was to
be paid for by including in the tax
levy following the issuance an amount
sufficient to pay them when they be-
came due. The resolutions adopted by
the conference committee provided that
the bonds run. eighteen months, and
this was done so as to cause them to
fall due after the taxes for the year
We're due and payable.
Mr. Bement explained that perhaps
the charter commission was not con-
should be any reason to think the COM
mission could not amend the charter
the bond plan would take effect, if the
people advocated the scheme at the
next election.
Mr.. Wheelock thought 1t meant sim
ply an increase in the taxation for
school purposes, which the charter now
limited to 21a mills.
Comptroller McCardy stated that at
the next election, If the people voted
for the bond proposition and it carried,
the council could provide a sum Of
money for school purposes. If the
charter commission reported a new
charter with the increased levy for
school purposes and that carried, then
there would be no need of issuing the
bonds. Without the bonds or a new
charter, the school board would be in
the same position as to funds that it
IS now.
Mr.. Bement said that he had been
Informed by Judge Sanborn, of the
United States district court, that the
cost per capita of running the schools
was larger in st. Paul than other
cities. This was a matter he thought
should be taken up by the conference
committee and discussed. The fire de-
partment had been in the habit Of OPP
Grating with a deficit for several years.
but after the conference committee
went to work the board, by judgment
and economy, were able to get along
without any deficit, and closed the year
with a considerable amount to it's cred
it. The fire board had gotten down to
reducing expenses, and he saw no rea-
son why the school board should not
follow.

There is considerable excitement

anS west leasing lands for the purpose

sented here by Messrs. J. NJ. Guffey

ent 4 d5ncern, represented by Mr.. Frank

have been in Oakland the past week
or ten days and have succeeded in
getdug options upon the farms of
pop FMS residing within a radius OF
8 e{nSles about Oakland.
What these options will bring forth
in the way of minerals remains to be
seen, but from indications it would
lead one to believe that oil in immense
quantities is stored in natures vault
beneath these mountains and that it
will take but little expense, cOmpara-
lively, to put down a test hole.
Should this be done and oil discov-
cred Oakland will experience a boom
never equalled in her history.
