cannot dominate him. BE must obey
the charter.
The charter was produced and re-.
ferred to frequently, without anybody
being much the wiser after reading it's
unintelligible and contradictory pro-
visions
Aid. Meyer said that the council
was not set of fools. There are a
good many smart men in the Fifth
ward and they would not have elected
him alderman if they didnot think him
competent to aid in transacting the
business of the city. He said that he
had got done getting hot at the way
things are going and would hereafter
vote according to his best judgment
and let it go at that. The Fifth ward
had not had anything for ten years un-
til this summer While there is some
kicking now, he was satisfied that
people would eventually see that what
had been done in the way of improve
ments this year was for the best.
The talk continued for a long time,
and as the room was cold several
severe colds were contracted before the
aldermen consented to adjourn at mid
night.

MADE TAX LEVY.
Council Will Raise $4,000 for
Next Year.
Aldermen and Recorder Cannot Agree in
Regard to the ApportiOnment
of Funds.

The council was in session until just
twelve O'Clock Monday, although all
of their business could have easily been
transacted in one hour. Hour after
hour was spent in useless controversy
between the aldermen and city attor-
ney on one side and the mayor and re-
corder on the other over the stand
taken by the latter in refusing to draw
warrants on funds that are empty
Neither side would yield, although
both declared that they wanted to
carry out the provisions of the charter.
A tax levy of s45, 900 was made, be-
ing 50, 900 greater than last year. In
order to- comply with the charter a
nominal levy was made for sinking
fund, while Sd, 500 was levied to pay
such of the notes as are presented for
payment,

The City's Judgments.

Recorder Williams asked whethe
something could not be realized from
the city's judgments, amounting to
Sc, 900 or $1,000
Aid. Meyer moved that they be sold
at discount of ten per cent.
Mayor,Currier said that he would
like to see some steps taken to get some
money out of the judgments.
City Attorney Daily said that the
way to do this is to take steps to get
tax title and then sell the property.
The tax certificates can be sold.
President. Porter stated that the tax
certificates cannot be sold for less than
par.
Aid. Jordan moved that the matter
be referred to the committee on claims
and accounts, to report at the next
meeting. This was carried.
Aid. Meyer moved that the two Gull
verts, on N. Fourth street and in
Thompson ravine, be covered and
finished.
The bills were allowed, including the
following pay rolls: General street
work $347, 67; waterworks extension,
s1O3.03; waterworks repairs, 5000;
Pleasant street, 5000; Poplar street
covering, $40; parks, $1O9 so. A bill
for $50 for street carriage for the can
non and for mounting same, and bills
for the balance due w. H. Donaldson
and d. V. Williams on the expert ex-
animation of the city's books were
among those allowed. Also bill for
s249. As from Frank winners for extra
work on his contract at the city hall,
less $50 held back that was used on cell
work.

The Tax Levy.
Aid Meyer moved that the tax levy
be made as follows:

The motion was carried and the
necessary resolution adopted.
President. Porter stated that it will
cost 800 each to fill in over the North
Fourth street land Thompson ravine
culverts. There is due the contractors
about 800 on these culverts. 1t will
cost $50 or $40 to finish Pleasant street
and cross walks are needed on Pleasant
Van Brunt and Fourth streets, where
grading has been done For ordinary
repairs, 1850 month will be needed
during the e winter, which is the
minimum, About $40 is needed the
next two weeks for water works.
Recorder Williams said that the
street pay rolls last winter were very
large.
Aid. Jordan moved that Alexander
Peterson's license ,money be placed in
the road fund.
Recorder Williams stated that it had
already been placed in the current
fund.
Aid, Meyer said that it does not be-
long to the city until the license is
granted.
Aid Jordans motion was carried af-
ter long discussion.
Aid. Meyer said that he thought that
the city had not better build any more
of the sidewalks this year that have
been ordered. The city will have to
wait for much of the money to come
in, in some cases for years.
Engineer Thompson said that it
would work a hardship on some people
who have built walks while non-resi
dent property owners have not built.
Aid. Meyer said that the city has
built more sidewalks this year than it
needed to-

Petitions and Applications.

w. n. Plymat appeared and object
ed to the amount of his assessment for
the construction of the Fifth street
sewer. He claimed that some of the
property across the street was not as
sessed, while the others assessed had to
make this up. This was change from
the usual plan, and he was assessed 50
more than the whole cost of the sewer
in front of his property, instead of one
half the cost. The matter was referred
to the committee on claims and &C.
counts.
County Commissioner Paddock ap-
piled for permission to place his desk
in the office in front of the council
chamber during the winter. A motion
to grant the request was carried.
Mayor Currier said that the Social
Science club desired to meet in the
council room if satisfactory arrange.
ments could be made,
Aid. Jordan made the point that if
one society was allowed to meet in the
council room others could not be bar
red out. He did not favor the request.
Aids. Woodland Taylor took the same
ground. and the matter was dropped at
ter granting the club permission to
meet theretonight.
The committee on claims and &C.
counts recommended that Mrs. Coon's
claim sfor s25 for damage from the
flooding of her cellar be allowed, The
report was adopted.
Aid. Weed again read N. w. Harris
& Co. s letter on the subject of refund
ing the city's floating debt.
Mayor Currier thought that no more
bonds could be issued,
City Attorney Daily thought that the
city could issue bonds in case the debt
is a legal one, but he was given time
to look it up more thoroughly.
AID. Meyer suggested that the bonds
be issued as the notes fall due or as the
holders want their money.
The liquor license bond of Alexan-
der Peterson with Mic Petersen and
David Terwilliger as sureties, was ap.
proved.

Chewing the Rag.

The city recorder stated that he was
not prepared to say whether he would
place the 81, 900 license money into the
road fund as requested by the council.
He said that he proposed to know now
what the charter provision means. and
intimated that it would require man
damus proceeding to get him to place
the money where the council desired.
The mayor upheld the recorder in this.
Engineer Thompson said that con
dition and not theory confronts the
city, and thought that the theorizing
with the funds should be postponed a
month until the work that the city had
started could be finished.
City Attorney Daily held that the
city recorder is merely the clerk of ser
vent of the council and should do as it
directs. The mayor has the veto
power, but the council is the par
amount body over both. The division
of the money into funds is merely a
matter of book keeping and the coun-
Gil can transfer money from one fund
to another. This city has controller of
the currency, as st. Paul has.
Mayor Currier took issue with the
city attorney. He said that the recor-
der is elected by the people, the same
as the aldermen are, and that he is CO.
equal with the council. He cannot
dominate the council and the council

A SOCIAL CLUB.
An Organization of Business Men
Talked Of.

A movement is on foot to organize
social club among number of SUBJ
stantial business men of the city. 1t
is intended to have membership of
10 to 100, and procure club rooms
where there shall be card tables,
billiard tables, side'board, and every
other feature usually found in a gen
tlemen's club in cities. Those who
are in the lead in the move have al.
ready prepared list of persons to be
approached, and If favorable responses
are received from enough parties the
move will be 60. 1t will be purely
social and not business club.
Mankato is large enough to support
an organization of the nature in,
dicated, and the movers will no doubt
meet with hearty response.

Curing Cancer.

why how the dread disease came upon
me l cannot tell. 1t began as a small
movable lump in my left breast, one year
and three months ago., says Mrs. John
Lindberg, HARDWOOD, N d.
1.-The doctors wanted to cut it out, but
told my husband I would rather die than
have it cut out. Through a travelling man,
we heard of DR.. Remnants Discovery. We
took the train for Minneapolis at once, and
began treatment with DR.. Reinhart. l be-
gan to improve from the first. My pain left
me. and in fifteen days I was cured. My
husband was so glad that was cured, for
the childrens sake, that we both got down
on our knees that night and thanked God
for what DR.. Reinhart had done for me-

A FAIR PERCENTAGE.
Sugar Beets Tested Show l4.65 per cent
of Sugar.

The work OF pulling the beets at
the citizens sugar beet farm will be-
gin Monday, and shipments to the ST..
Louis Park factory will be made dur
ing the week UP to four cars day. 1t
is desired that all of the farmers who
have raised sugar beets shall pull
them and bring them in next week in
order to ship at the same time, and
this will save them the trouble of
putting them into pits.
Eight beets taken from the sugar
beet farm have been tested at the ST.
Louis park factory and the result
shows 14.65 per cent of sugar. Four
of these beets were average size, two
large and two small, and they were
fair samples taken from different
parts Of the field. Ed. Schumacher
believes that the final test will show
higher percentage, but even at this
percentage the price realized from
