tention of the council petition which
had been presented at one of the last
meetings of the old council and in
which the Tri-State company had
asked permission to establish switch
board and two long distance telephone
booths in the city, in addition to per-
mission to use of the streets for
equipment to make connections with
such business houses as desired to
avail themselves of the advantages Of
fered by the long distance lines of the
company. Alderman Amerland mov-
ed that the petition be filed but the
motion was opposed by Alderman Nc
Kellar who offered an amendment to
lay the matter on the table. After
considerable debate the matter was
put to vote with the result that four
of the aldermen voted in the negative
and four in the affirmative. Mayor
Johnson voted against the motion as
amended and it was declared lost

company to put in long distance tele-
phone exchange and make connections

tance service only, the mayor being
given the power to rescind the right
at any time that the telephone COM
.pany attempted to transact any other
than long distance business. !
A motion to refer tile matter to the
ordinance committee was amended to
lay it on the table. The vote on the
amended motion resulted in a tie. The
mayor voted in the affirmative at this

ell in the shape of an ordinance in
stead of resolution.

Eleventh and Twelfth streets pro-
testing against the putting in of

dering in the improvement was re-
scinded.
Shy in Funds.
SO A communication from Mayor
Johnson regarding the deficiency in
the fund for operation of the police
department was read. The mayor
called attention to the fact that the
expense of keeping up the present
force would result in a deficiency at
the end of the fiscal year of about
$500. He asked that the council in
dicate whether or not he should cut
down. the force or continue as at pres
ent and depend on the council to make 4
good the deficiency at the end of the
year. The members of the council as
sured the mayor that he would be
backed up in keeping up the efficiency
of the present force.
Reduce Water Rate.
The mayor presented communica-
tfon from Superintendent Nicholson
of the Great Northern asking a re-
duction of water rate from cents per
Loco gallons to cents per 1000 gal

Explanation

In writing up the dedica-
tory exercises of NJ. V. G. II
month ago we said:
San anonymous writer expresses
regret In very plain words al the
breach OF confidence after the services
In the Hall, when the U ID C's. pre-
sented Gen. A p, Stewart with u
bouquet, answered with remarks by
Mr.. Stewart, which he claims were
not appropriate TO an audience invit
cd there for u different purpose. "
The ". ID. &. members say
this statement was unfair To
them and we are pleased To
explain matters more fully
so that our readers may use
their own Judgment. DR..
Black, who had charge of the
program said, when approach
ed, that he would be pleased
TO have the u. ID. g. honor
Mr.. Stewart by the presenta-
tion of flowers at the conclus-
ion of the regular program,
and this was done. The re-
marks of Mr.. Stewart were
considered by some as an I'M
position. yet he is solely re.
sponsible for what was said
and not the ladies who invited
him. AS the regular pro-
gram was concluded those de-
string TO leave could have
done so and there would have
l'been no breach of confidence
as fur AZ they wereconcerned.
