ton nv CITY CouuCtl

For two days the board Of public works
has been on the verge Of authorizing adj
vertisements for bids for the Cedar river
water plant. The board held a meeting
Tuesday afternoon. but after pro,racted
discussion deferred acton until yesterday
morning at O'Clock. Yesterdays meet
ing resulted in nothing more tangible or
definite. The matter was informally dis
cassed during the day. Chairman and City
Engineer Thomson being represented by
his first assistant, George +. Cotterill.
1t appears that the city council has al
ready appropriated s20.ep0 for securing
right-of-way. Meanwhile condemnation
suits require further appropriation of
s2s.eo. 1t has been doubted whether this
appropriation should be made by the city
from the general fund or from the Cedar
river water fund or whether the bidding
contractor should himself assume the La
bifity For a time yesterday the board
thought OF asking for a special session Of
the council, but after elaboration Ii was
decided to await the action OF the regular
session next Monday night

guests, we understand, are heard to
complain of treatment, fare or prices
when leaving these hotels, and
hence their growing popularity with
