WHERE THE MONEY GOES.
Council Meets and Allows Claims Amount

Council Meets and Allows Claims Amount
ing to Nearly $1,000.
The village council held it's regular
monthly meeting last Monday evening,
all members being present with the
exception Of Councilman Craig who
was absent in North Dakota. After
the reading of the minutes of the last
meeting which were approved Arson
Howard appeared before the council
and asked permission to have an
electric light placed in front of the
feed barn at the Mark yards, and the
request was granted. Elmer Hatch
was before the council with CON-
plant that since the street along his
property on the north side of the river
had been graded that he was troubled
in wet weather with an overflow of
water on his residence lots, and he
stated to the council. that if. the proper
culvert was placed across the street
the culvert would carry away sufd-
cient water SO that his property would
not be under water much of the time
in wet weather. The council could
not see how the culvert would do any
good at that place as the drainage
ditch was said to be higher than the
culvert would be, but Mr.. Hatch hung
out for some kind of satisfaction and
he promised that if the council would
give him the timbers he would put the
culvert in and it would not cost the
village cent, and he guaranteed that
it would do the business. The coun-
Gil finally agreed to send the commit
tee ON streets over and look into the
matter and Mr.. Hatch was satisfied.
He further stated to the council that
the residents of his7part of the village
were in need of street lights and
thought that as soon as the new plant
was installed that they should be given
little light on the subject. He did
not get much satisfaction from the
council. It was the policy of the vii
lage under the guidance and direction
of the village councils to give those
parts of the village street lights that
used electric lights in the residences,
but the policy works great hardship
and injustice on many residents and
. tax payers of the village who do not
want electric lights nor can they
afford to have them, but they are en-
titled to have sufficient lights on the
streets. There are several business
men in the village to-day who have
abandoned the use of The electric
lights in their stores and are using
other and as they think better lights.
On the policy established by the viii
lage councils in days gone by these
merchants would not be entitled to
any street lights because they do not
use village lights.

This gives Roosevelt total OF 3125 electoral
votes.
Parker gets Isl electoral votes in
the ''soild south
There was no disposition on the
part of the Democrats to hope against
hope. AS state after state sent in it's
Republican majority and the wires
told the tale of the ballots, bringing
even from those commonwealth upon
which they had based their figures of
Democratic success, reports of un-
precedented Republican majorities,
they frankly conceded their defeat
and offered no. explanation. Soon
after Mr.. Belmont's admission Judge
Parker accepted the situation by tele-
graphing President Roosevelt his
congratulations.
The project weather conditions
which prevailed practically over the
entire country brought out vote
which experienced politicians predict
will be a record breaker and in this
increase of ballots the Republicans
gained more than their share.
Parker even failed to carry Esopus,
his home town.
The Rooseveltian wave has set a
high water mark for Republican
pluralities. and is grand tribute to
President Roosevelt, as we'll as indi-
eating that the people have unbounded
confidence in the Republican party. +.

The matter of paying over to the fire

the State commissioner of insurance
amounting to S2O2.76 which is the
State aid apportionment for fire relief
associations, was brought up by the
recorder who had written the insur-
ance commissioner of the State for in
formation. The commissioner stated
that the council could not pay over to
the fire company the State money un-
til the company had organized a re-
lief association according to the pro-
visions of the law. The organization
must be perfected and the treasurer
must file a bond, and the council must
authorize and consent to the organiz-
alton. After this has been done the
council must pay over the money to
the fire company, but the funds can
only be used for the relief of sick or
injured members of the fire depart
ment.

from the Security bank across to the
