new CITY OFFICERS /
Council and Mayor Name Officials for
the Ensuing Year.
+ 1 NJ G,sQQQYy MF5Fsss4QN[F]R
The Appointments Give Splendid satisfac-
tion.-Old Council Gives Place
to the New
| CITY CLERK-E. II. TUCKER.
STREET COMMISSlONER-THos PEARSON.
WEIGHMASTER-A. G. SMITH.
NIGHTWATCH-L. M. BAER
CITY PHYSICIAN-WM. IsEMrNGER.

The above are, our city officials for
the ensuing year. There are but two
new names, those of Messrs Tucker and
Pearson. The old council met on Mon
day morning, settled up some old bills,
etc, and adjourned sine die. Ivens and
Scaggs left the council chamber after
affectionate farewells and Mr.. Scaggs
brought up sack of apples as slight
token of esteem and sympathy. The
new members Luney. johnson and
Wright were sworn in. Mayor KEN
ming and Alderman Jones. the last of
the democrats, looked trifle lonesome
but determined to make the best of it.
The first business was the election of
city CLERK and on the third ballot Mr.
e. F. Tucker was elected He was
called and with the kindly assistance of
ex-clerk Cassaday was soon at work.
The council put in the entire day at
work as the board of equalization and
the new members thought they were
having pretty thorough initiation.
The work of the board is extremely
difficult this year az all property is list
ed and the new method of assessment
is in vogue
In the evening the council met as a
council and two railroad ordinances
were passed A third ordinance was
introduced prohibiting people from con-
gregating under the street lights for
purposes of play or pastimes. While
the object of the ordinance may be all
right, we believe the wording is too
broad and that it should be generously
amended before passage
The election of the remaining city
officials was the interesting event of
the evening. The power to appoint
weighmaster rests with the mayor and
His Honor appointed g. A. Smith to
the position. Mr.. Smith is a cripple
and his appointment as republican by
a democratic mayor is a tribute Mr..
Kemming's non partsanship. The
council confirmed the appointment.
For street commissioner Mr.. Thomas
Pearson was elected Mr. Pearson is a
splendid man for the place. We believe
he will make the best street commits
sioner Denison has ever had. He is a
stalwart, Woodworking republican and
deserved disappointment from his par
ty friends. Mayor Kemming advised
that no commissioner be appointed as
there was no money to be expended, but
the republican members thought they
would find some way in which to make
the most needed improvements. The
announcement by the mayor that there
will be little or no money available for
street purposes will be sad blow to
to those who expected great improve
ments to be made this year.
The remainder of the officials, L. NJ
Baer, the faithful night watch, and DIR.
Iseminger, were re elected.
The new council has made Il splendid
start. TheSofficials elected by them are
all men of spotless character and good
ability. The reforms demanded by the
voters at the last election are now to be
carried out, and our republican city is
in republican hands once more.
