THAT SNOW CLEARING CONTRACT.
Opinions As to the Proper Thing are Exceed
ingly Numerous.

Discussions of one kind and another
are being heard about the snow-clear-
ing contract that was authorized.
Thursday night, and over which the
two branches of the city government
had a disagreement. 1t is all over the
clearing of the snow from Water street
and Rines hill. Whether it should be
all done by the railroad company. all
by the CITY. an even division of the ex-
penses of the same. or some other ar
rangement is what is discussed. There
are those who believe in all the differ
ent ways.
In the past few years it has been the
custom to clean the snow out of the
streets. the work being done under the
direction of the street commissioner
and the expenses being borne equally
by the city and the railroad company.
This the company desired to repeat as
it is perfectly satisfactory to them, but
some of the members of the city gov
eminent did not think this a proper
division and said so.
The arguments used was that if the
railroad was not there the city would
not have to go TO the expense of clear

1t calls attention to the fact that a con

from the sidewalks. and the roofs Of
buildings, and that obviously the cleo
