NOTICE.
DENIsoN. IOWA, July 2nd

DENIsoN. Iowa, July 2nd, 1900.
To the Township Trustees and Road
Supervisors of Crawford County. la.
The legislature at its last session re-
pealed the former law relating to the
cutting of weeds along the highway
and its stead enacted the following:
Sec. l. 1t shall be the duty of road
supervisors to cause to be cut. near the
surface, all weeds on the public roads
in their respective districts, between
the 18th day of July and the 18th day
of August in each year. But nothing
herein shall prevent the land owner
from harvesting the grass grown upon
the roads along his land in the proper
season.
AS will be seen from a reading of the
above it is part of the duty of the super
visor to attend to this matter, and as
the repeal of the old law does away
with the provision for taxing the cost
of cutting up to the property owner,
the cost now will be at the expense of
the district. This new law makes it
absolutely the duty of the road super
visor and does not make any provision
for the land owner doing it. This act
is in effect this year.
53-3w JOHN T. CAREY, Auditor.

A NEW WELL.
Council Decides to Dig New Well
Similar to Old One.

The city council met in special ses-
sion on Thursday evening, the object
of the meeting being the question OF
water The demand for water is con-
stantly increasing, and the only solu-
ton seems to be another we'll. The
subject was thoroughly considered and
a committee was appointed to get
specifications, decide on location and
advertise for bids. the council deeming
it wise to let the job by contract. The
old we'll was built by the day, and it is
believed one can be built by contract
much cheaper. However, the outlay
in money will be in the neighborhood
of from $500 to $1,000. There were
also present at this meeting represen-
tatives of the Electric Light & Power
Co and new water main leading
direct from the pumping station to the
standpipe was asked for. The: COM
pany claims that the present main is
very unsatisfactory, there are many
Joints and turns in it, and it is the be-
lief that in many of these corners the
pipe is half filled with clay and gravel,
thereby causing great friction and
making pumping very hard. This is a
question that has been agitated more
or less by the company for some time,
but the city council. is of the opinion
that to get the water first and the
pumping afterwards is the main object
and are not willing at this period to
spend s25oO or $1,000 for new main.
No action was taken on the question
and the council adjourned.

The regular meeting of the city
council was held last evening. There
was the usual grist of bills allowed and
one or two rejected. A number of inn
portant questions regarding city affairs
were discussed. A new sidewalk was
ordered laid on the south side of Ire
mont between Washington and Locust
and also one on Washington between
fremont and Broadway. 1t is thought
these walks will benefit number of
people living in that vicinity who have
heretofore been compelled to walk two
blocks out of their way to get up town.
The matter of the new we'll was dis
cussed at some length: the we'll com
mittee, however, is pushing matters
with all possible speed.
