THE GARBAGE CONTRACT
How the Reduction for the Annexed
District Was Effected

There is good story going the rounds
at the city hall in regard to the reduction
by the contractor of the price for col
lecting the garbage in the annexed dis
trict from $500 to $500 per month. When
the first demand was presented in the
council Mr.. Mathuss objected to It, de-
claring that the price. $500, or just one
half the amount charged for the entire
city, was excessive. This was denied by
the contractor who said that the amount
of territory to be covered, with the
widely scattered houses. made the high
price necessary. Mr.. Mathuss, it is
said, without disputing the assertion,
quietly hired a man at his own expens-
to go over the ground and find out just
what was done. When the contractor
appeared before the committee and gave
his side he was given some facts and
figures which opened his eyes, and he
gracefully came off the perch and agree l
to the cut. 1t was a trifle expensive to
Mr.. Mathuss personally. but the city
has gained several hundred dollars by
the councilman's outlay.

OIL MEN DISSATISFIED
Say the New Ordinance Works a
Hardship ON Them

On Monday next a delegation of the
oil men will wait on the city council to
ask a modification of the ordinance re-
Gently adopted for the regulation of the
Gil industry. When Inspector Molyneaux
was appointed, one of the first things
he did was to have the ordinance printed
on cards in convenient shape for the
pocket, and then made a tour OF the
district, giving each well owner a copy,
and at the same time notifying him
that the law as printed would be en-
forced strictly; also asking them to live
up to its provisions for their own pro-
lection. The inspectors warning was
kindly received. in most instances, and
so far there has been no friction. But
now the oil men claim that some of the
provisions work positive hardship up
on them, and if enforced will compel
them to abandon some of their wells or
go into the courts and make fight, The
provision which they say is the hardest
upon them is that prohibiting the stor-
age of oil within one hundred feet of any
frame building unless the tank in which
such oil is stored is buried at least two
feet under ground. In some instances
they claim that it is impossible to obey
this law, as wells are sometimes located
on forty-foot lots, and the product is
not sufficient to justify constructing
underground tanks, and then to have
to go to the additional expense of pump
ing in loading the wagons. There are
other objections, but this is the principal
complaint.
On the other hand the councilmen do
not at this time see their way clear to
granting relief on this point by modify
ing the ordinance This clause was only
inserted in its present shape after an
object lesson in the shape Of serious
fire, which under less favorable condi-
tions might have developed into a disas-
trous conflagration, had demonstrated
that increased protection against fire
was an imperative necessity. 1t is also
morally certain that any attempt to
modify this provision would bring forth
vigorous protest from the residents
of the oil district.
The chances are that a delegation of
the property owners will also be before
the council to meet the oil men, and the
whole battle will be fought over again
If there is any disposition to materially
modify the ordinance.
