CITY COUNCIL MET.
Water lnspectioa Was the Mala Topic ~
Petition Read From Residents % Nor
NAL hill Asking that Tie Tax Imposed
for Fire Protection be Removed.

The city council held their regular
monthly meeting last night with all pres
ent except Lake and Tannahill. The
reports Of City Marshal Denny and City
Treasurer King were read and placed on
file. Several bills were allowed
The principal question of the evening
was over communication from the Idaho
Banking & Investment Co., directed to the
city council, which was read. The COM
munication stated that the water system,
as now run, was not being carried on in a
dutiful manner, and that it was an ''out-
rage" the way the citizens and the city
were treated. II stated that the only
remedy is that the franchise being void,
il cap be revoked by the city and plant
be either put in by them or the franchise
sold to some other company. The sign
ers Of the petition stated that if proper
steps were taken to force the matter
to an issue that the company was author
lied to state that system will be put in
by new company.
Lewiston teller. [volume] (Lewiston, North Idaho) 1878-1900, 1900-08-07

The communication was referred to the
city attorney to make the report on as
soon as possible.
A petition was read, signed by a num-
Der of residents from Normal hill, asking
that property there be excluded from the
tax imposed for fire purposes. The Pc
ton was referred to the city attorney.
The council instructed the city attorney
to draw up an ordinance prohibiting the
use by small boys of sling-shots or Alps
which they have been shooting around
town of late
The matter Of the assessment benefits
and damages in the street improvement
was referred until the next meeting.
Council adjourned until Wednesday
night.

A member of the Idaho Investment
Banking Co., was seen this morning in
connection with the communication read
at the council meeting last night from
them, he said:
We mean business and wish to state
that we are not .bluffing.s in the least.
The present water company is not doing
its duty toward its customers and we find
that they have violated their franchise
in various ways. If the city does not re-
woke their franchise or buy the plant, we

j. Fl. McCissick, the well known farmer
Of Tammany, is in the city and reports
the wheat in that section as nearly all
threshed. He states that the most of the
fall wheat will average 80 bushels to the
acre and that the quality is the finest
they have had for years. He says the
hot winds have not affected the wheat in
the least, as it was all ripe before the hot
winds came. There is no other condi-
ton 80 far that has affected the quality of
this wheat, and if reports are true Of the
failure Of crops in the Palouse country,
then Lewiston will probably furnish the
only milling wheat to be had.

The march to Pekin has begun. In
that, as well as in the preservation of
the legations from destruction thus
far. the United States takes the lead.
1t is a noteworthy circumstance that
the very same government which has
all along believed in the safety Of the
legations. and by its tact and concil-
iatory methods has done most to as
sure that safety. should also have
been most practical and urgent in
sending in a force for their relief. It
is chapter of both diplomatic and
military history of which the United
States may well be proud. The prog
ress of the expedition cannot, of course
be forecasted. We may hope, however,
that it win be conducted in accordance
with the American policy which has
thus far been so successful. This gov
ernment has made it plain to the Chi
nese government that the advance is
made in spirit not of hostility or Of

demcnstration-the most successful in
the city's history-without yielding to
the West Shore Mills Company's at
tempted extortion in the street light
contract. The regatta, essentially a
daylight pastime. will go of just as
satisfactorily without electric light ef-
fects. The city council will not be de-
ceived nor coerce6 by the latest device
OF the light company to force its looting
fingers into an unwilling public treas
ury. If the hired men who are circu-
lating petitions and otherwise attempt
ing to use the regatta as a pretext to
bulldoze the council think the coming
boat races cannot be held on the. river
without street lights. let them address
their prayers to the light company for
a donation of the desired lights as the
contribution of the company to the re-
satta.
