air until it paves its streets
Everybody, practically, is now IA
miliar with the attempt of Bessemer
to secure street paving, the last
effort being a resort to the drastic
measure of having the mayor and
city council mandamused to pass the
necessary ordinance.
Aldermen Sweeney, Colvin and
Curtis filed an answer to the alterna-
tive writ of mandamus stating that
they ere ready and willing to proceed
in the matter, while Mayor Brown
and Aldermen johnson, Walker,
Holloran, Flynn and Fitzpatrick filed
e demurrer 10 which they made the
formal plea that the complaint of
plaintiffs should be dismissed because
it did not contain facts sufficient to
constitute a cause of action.
How the contention of the mayor
and the city council majority was
disposed of has just been told, and
now all interest is centered in the
arguments to be made before Judge
Dixon the 23d instant.
All through the week since Judge
Dixon made bis popular ruling Besse-
mer citizens have made street paving
the theme for discussion which has
almost rivslled in Importance that Of

are rejoicing hardly expresses tse

to give monthly open meetings. A
series Of luncheons will also be given.
More suitable rooms was said by
ssne to be very much needed, it be-
ing argued that small rooms in the

proper thing.

The Bssssmsr Paving Advocates
Make First Scoring in Their
Contest Against tho
City Council.

Bessemer won the preliminary bout
in Judge N. Walter Dixon's court
Tuesday last in the street paving
matter when the Judge overruled the
demurrer to the alternative writ of
msndamus directing the city council
to pass the required ordinance for
paving Northern and Evans Avenue
Paving District No. l.
Attorney E E. Hubbell opened the
case for the defense but had not pro-
ceeded far when he was interrupted
by the court and told that this was
not proDer matter to dsmur to,
Mr.. Hubbell had stated that the
city council a. a legislative body Is
clothed with full discretionary pewsr in
such matters and if the council saw
6t to first require the placing q
curbinG before laying the paving il
should be permitted to exercise such
power and not be interfered with
Here his honor broke in by inform
ing the attorney that he is somewhat
familiar with the matter himself and
understands that curbiag does al
ready exist, the question being not
one Of curbing but rather as to the
issue Of making Northern avenue
narrower and the sidewalks wider by
the placing of new curbing.
The court took exception to the
argument advanced that the city
council is clothed in discretionary
powers in this matter, sad argued in
effect that the function Of that body
is purely ministerial and that when
the property owners in this paving
district petitioned for paving it is
the duty Of the city council to grant
such petition in compliance with the
statutes governing in such cases.
The demurrer of respondents,
therefore. would be overruled and
tho attorneys for the defense given
ten days in which to answer.
The decision of the court was brief
clear cut q I'd forcible and went direct
to the point.
A delegation representing the prop
erty owners within the Bessemer
paving district was present as like
wise were several visiting attorneys
who took keen interest in the pro-
ceedings.
The matter will now come up one
week from today, January 23d, iu
Judge Dixon's division Of the district
court, when it will be disposed Of on
its merits.
The ruling Of Judge Dixon gives
much satisfaction to the people Of
Bessemer who have worked so hard
and so long for this highly impor-
tant public Improvement, and whose
efforts have been backed up by the
Bessemer and Minnequs Board Of
trade, the Pueblo Business Mems as
sociation and by a universal sympa-
say among the people Of this city who
do not understand why any section
Of the city should be denied public
Improvement when they are willing
and anxious to pay every dollar OF
the expense.
The men who are pushing Pueblo
to the front are all anxious to see a
start made in street paving, the i'm
provement that will send Pueblo to
the front faster than any other thing
that could possibly be done, and
everywhere is expressed the hope
that Bessemer will ultimately win
out and pave its first district in the
spring.
