Before I A. M.
CAUSES A DISCUSSION
In Board Of Aldermen Finally Laid
on the Table--Streets Set
Aside for coasting
Purposes.


AT a meeting Of the board of aldermen
last evening 4 resolution was introduced
Ito have the street superintendent have
the sidewalks in the city pIowed out be-
lore seven o'clock on mornings following
snow storms. Immediately following
the reading Of the resolution Alderman
Cutler fnntioned that the matter lie laid
on the table and before Il was seconded
AFderman Miles made the motion that it
be accepted. Alderman Campbell thought
that the intent of the resolution was
lall right but considered that II was ask
ing too much Of the street superinten-
dent to plow out the sidewalks in the
dark as it would be at that time in the
morning. The city would have to burn
its lights all night ineurring extra ex-
pense. Alderman Albesetti said that he
introduced the resolution and wanted To
know Ii 1t was a question Of pleasing the
street superintendent or the citizens in
regard to this matter Alderman Cutler
thought that there was no necessity Of
discussing the matter any further as he
said that the board had received nc
kicks on account of the sidewalks not
being plowed out in season. Thought
the street superintendent did well last
winter and that this move would be inn
posing upon him. If the plows we're
started at four o'clock in the morning as
they would have to be to get the side
walks done BY seven he said IL would be
earlier than they were started IN any city
around here that be knew Of and that It
would be impossible to do a good lob
IN the. dark Alderman AIbisetti again
y
ing the superintendent Of the streets but
the tax payers and their children who
had 10 wallow through the snow to
school He said that the superintendent
had been 10 him and asked him To kcea
the resolution 10 his pocket Aldegniaa
Thurston thought that 1t was asiise
little too much of the superinten c-'
and that without the streets li@lsss It
would be an iinpossibility. Mayor RAT
clay suggested that If they notified TIE
superintendent to scrape out the walks
Jas well as he did last winter everything
woiild be perfectly satisfaetprv Thought
that the work was done well hst winter.
Alderman Cutters motion To lay the
matter on the table was finally seconded
