Council Meeting

The City Council met Mondey ev.
ening at the Mayors office with all
members present, after the usual
routine work including the allow
ance of the monthly grist of bills,
the Mayor appointed Councilmen
Hensley, Brown and Witthauer, to
act as judges, and Councilman
Waits to assist as Clerk at the City
election to be held March 81, 1905, at
which time there are two Council
men to elect for three years, and
one Councilman for two years to
fill vacancy, the retiring Council
men being Hensley, Marlin and
Waits. In discussing the clearing
of side walks of snow under the
existing ordinance, it was consider
ed doubtful whether one can be
compelled to keep snow off his own
walks unless he can be prosecuted
under the ordinance in regard to
maintaining a nuisance. Law or no
law, pride alone should cause us to
keep the walks adjoining our prem
ises so as to permit pedestrians to
travel with comfort and safety.
From the foundation of our Incor-
porated City feeling has existed
among most of the city teamsters
in regard to licensing them to ply
their calling and almost semi-an-
nually the fight comes on and dras-
tic measures have to be resorted to.
to collect the license and this year
is not an exception. We do not
vouch for it, not having the reports
on hand to substantiate or prove it
but it is asserted that but one or
two have paid the regular semi
annual license, due last April first
and as the patience of the council
has about become exhausted over
the continued optention, it was re-
solved, that the Marshal be in
structed to arrest all persons found
draying without license, when
they will be proceeded against as
provided in the ordinance. 1t has
been seriously thought to repeal
the ordinance and we make this
guess that the license will be COL
lected or the ordinance annulled
when every person having a team
can dray to his hearts desire with
out let or hindrance. Owing to the
foul weather the committee APP
pointed to investigate the feasibil-
ity of charging the towns boundary
on the south have not been able to
go over the ground, so no report
was forth coming.

One of our business men tells the
