wished to give him this opportunity
upon his suggestion that the prices in
the contract offered to the city were
too high The council wished to get
better prices if ii were possible to do
so; the mayor had been been given
thirty days TO make Investigations
and it was understood that on his re,
turn he would be able to give the
council some information.
The mayor said he had information,
but he could not submit it at this
meeting.
Alderman Meehan said that ii
would not be advisable to make a re,
port to the open council, as il could
not be acted upon. and, anyway, the
mayors figures might not last very
| long in general discussion as some
of the aldermen were also pretty we'll
posted on the subject He moved that
the subject matter be referred to the
committee and that the mayor make
his report before said committee
Some misunderstanding arose as TO
whether the motion meant only that

offered. When the alderman explain

different form. or motion to recon.
slider the vote by which the matter
had been disposed of at a former
meeting. This could not be done at
this meeting because there were not
the same number of members present
as at the former meeting.
Alderman Meehan said he brought
the matter up as new business, not
as business previously disposed of.
The mayor shook his head saying
he couldn't see it that way.
Alderman Meehan saw what was
coming and grew little warm. You
have allowed this matter to come up
before the meeting in a new form, al
lowed other aldermen to talk on the
subject without any motion and now
you rule my motion Out Of order. Why
didn't you call them to order?'
The mayor made no ruling at

household remedy, and should always
be kept on hand for immediate use."

kle for twelve years that the doctors

cured me. It is a wonderful relief"
