 | The board also approved this recon | mendation unanimously. This is the first time in the history of the city gov ernment when the aldermen and the board of public works. agreed upon l trolley matters.
 Two communications were received from the mayor, one asking that the 1 city attorney be requested to prepare bill and submit the same to the legis- l lature and urge its ~>ssage providing for increases in the salaries as follows: Mayor, 5000 to $3,OOO; city clerk, $1,- 800 to $1, 800; comptroller, $1, ,5OO to ST. 800; city treasurer, $500 to $750; city attorney, $2,OOO to $3,O0O. The com munication stated that since the sal aries of these offices were fixed in 1895 l the duties connected with them had been increased about 40 per cent by the consolidation of the town, city and school governments. The communica- tion was received and the recommends ton adopted, although MT Filling would prefer to have it laid on the ta- b1e
 The other had reference to the as- sessOrs and recommended that the board be abolished and allow the ap- pointment of a new board, each to re- ceive $1.2O0 a year for his service. It stated that so far but one member of the board devotes his entire time to the office and that it required the best efforts of the board the year round. The new plan would have the board appointed for one, two and three years, commencing the first of April, 1908. MT Brophy and MT
 O'Brien opposed this very strongly,
 because such a course would 1egislate John w. Burns out of office a year be-
 fore his term expires, but the commun-
 ication was received just the same and l
 such a bill.
 The matter Of storm water sewers
 was sent back to the board of public
 works for further consideration. All
 the other recommend dations of the
 board of public works were adopted.
 The board of public safety asked
 that the board of finance be requested
 to appropriate $4,Oo0 for police protec-
 ton in the outside district, adding that
 the additional policing was required to protect the trolley cars. It was passed
 along
 Building Inspector Chatield asked
 for a two weeks vacation. Aldermen Murray and Brophy thought this bad time for the inspector to be absent
 from his duties and wanted him to stay right here and work for his $1 ,SOC , a year.. MT Blakeslee explained that , there is not much doing in bhe office . at the present time and that the in spector would like to get off now. The request was granted by close vote F Chairman Goss submitted resolu 2 tion offering reward of $2OO each fol F information which will lead to the con , vict1on of the parties that assaulted
 William Harvey, Conductor Lannon and MotoT1nan Merna of the trolley r tcompany, and Harold R. Durant.
 When the question was put MT Mur I ray said he thought there ought to b, . some limit to what the city should b. , expected to do at time like this ' eve are doing 8 great deal,'' said tn : alderman, "and don't think we shoult
 go any further for the present, any '. way. We are just after authorizin, ! an appropriation of $4,O0O for addition
 al police protection for the company G and the city has been put to consider . able additional cost for police servic . every day since the trouble started t The state and the county is contribut e ing to the increased cost to preserv ', the peace and apprehend the guilty par Q ties and I think 1t time the compan
 showed disposition to help out" Q Alderman Brophy looked at it fror n the same standpoint as Mir Murray
