reports of the officers and commit
tees, and a number of communion
tons to the council. Squires &
Gaddis asked for the vacation of a
strip along the V shaped lot at High
and Grand streets, the vacation
asked being Is feet from High
street, along the east side of the lot.
Mr.. Gaddis appeared before the
council, explaining that if the vaca-
ton asked was granted, a brick
building would be erected upon the
property as soon as the material
could be gotten upon the ground.
The application was referred to the
committee on streets and highways,
who will report at the next meet
ing. The clerk, however, was in
structed to post notices as provided
by law, setting the time for the
hearing of objections to the vaca-
ton. This hearing will be at the
session of tn ecouncil on March 3rd.
The committee on streets and
highways reported unfavorably up
on the petition of residents of Ross
tiers addition, asking for the vaca-
ton of certain streets and alleys.
The report was adopted, and the
streets will not be vacated.
Wallace Moss addressed the coun-
Gil, asking that the marshal be in
structed to see that Olsen street was
cleared of distractions, his COM
plant being that J. 7. Lobaugh &
Co. were piling a carload of fence
posts in the street directly in front
of his property. In line with this
the council later passed a resolution
which was presented by Councilman
Priest, ordering the marshal to no
tify all persons to remove obstruc-
tions from all streets and alleys of
the city within thirty days from date
Of notice, or such distractions would
be removed by the city at the ex-
pense of the property owner.
The council listened to Geo. w.
Ford, who asked that the matter of
the opera house license might be
and, if possible, some re-
duction made. The present license
is $40 per annum. At Colfax no
license is charged against its play
house. The finance committee will
investigate.

Bids for the city printing for the

probation and adjudication.
A batch of street grade ordinances
were passed, and number of 9TH
