Mankato, Mimi, Oct. %, 1905
MankatO has the credit of being
one of the prettiast little cities in
the northwest. We point with
pride and satisfaction to some of
our well paved streets, and we are
proud of most of our public build
ings, notably the court house,
high school, normal school, and
the postoffice.
As the beautiful plumage of
the peacock falls when he looks at
his feet, so. our pride falls when
we look at the Mankato City hail.
1t is Anticipated in architecture,
dilapidated in appearance, dingy,
dark and dirty. The stairs are
worn and rough, the wood work
checked, marred and marked; the
offices are small and uninviting;
the Board of Trade room, and the
council chamber would be dis
credit to village of 1000 in habi-
tants. Mankato has far outgrown
her city hall, therefore
Resolved, by the Board of
Trade in regular session assembl-
ed that we ask, yea we urge our
city council to take very early
steps looking to the erection of a
new city hall in this city.
Resolved, that we recommend
its erection on some street other
that Front; that it may be farth-
er removed from the noise of
switching trains, and other sources
of disturbances.
Resolved, that we as citizens
and taxpayers will willingly and
IhSCiluily SuDiilil W the HCCcSSdIy
taxation for the purpose of erect
ing a new modern and commodious
city hall in the city of Mankato.
Resolved, that these resolutions
be sent as communication to the
city council, and that the Board
of Trade respectfully ask the said
council to give them their careful
consideration.
NOTE-Let it be understood
that we do not expect and are not
asking for the immediate erection
of city hall, but we do express
the hope, at least, that intelligent
steps be taken at a very early
date; that plans may be made and
funds provided so that within two,
or at most three years a city hall
shall have been erected in the CITY
of Mankato which will be a credit
to our beautiful and growing city.
