Rig Sidewalk Order

AT this point Chairman Hudson, of
the street and alley committee, made
the recommendation, published above,
providing for the ordering of great
stretches of concrete sidewalk laid
in the city at once. There was some
discussion. Mayor Wentworth re-
marked that the city would not be
able to lay all of the crossings that
the laying of these sidewalks would
necessitate, out of the present funds.
Alderman Davies remarked that If
the people would lay the walks the
city should certainly meet this i'm
provement by the laying of the con-
crete crossings to abut the new
walks. This seemed to be the gener-
al opinion of the council. Alderman
Hudson stated that he and Alderman
Matthews had made full investiga-
tions and prepared the recommends
ton with care, these sidewalks he
said are badly needed and crossings
can be laid as the city is able from
time to time. There would be but
little objections from the property
holders.
A motion to adopt the report and
enforce its provisions passed by a
unanimous vote of the council. This
is another long step toward rapidly
improving the city.

Wonldn,t Do Injustice.

Under the head of communication
to council Alderman Plank, referred
to the remarks he made in connec-
ton with the employment of spec
ial counsel for the city, at a previous
meeting, in which Mr.. Plank said
that according to the Denver papers
Mr.. Stevenson was not loyal to some
clients there and how was the
city council to know that he would
not prove untrue If employed by the
local council. Desiring to be right
fully understood on the matter and
wishing to keep from doing any one
an injustice Mr., Plank made the fol-
lowing statement last night:
81 desire to say to the council and
to all persons who may have heard
the remarks which l made in regard
to Mr.. Stevenson of Denver. in the
council meeting of July 16, 1907.
that | had no intention whatever of
doing Mr.. Stevenson any injustice
whatsoever; and if anything which
| said on that occasion did him any
injustice, | desire to correct the same
at this time. My remarks were bas-
ed entirely upon what had appeared
in the Denver newspapers regarding
the gentleman, and | personally felt
that whether the newspaper reports
were true or false. we had attorneys
located in Grand Junction who were
well qualified to take care of the
city's interests and who would do
so equally as well as Mr.. Stevenson. s.

Contract with Attorneys

The contract proposed to be enter
I'd into with Attorneys James S.
Carnahan and Straud NJ Logan,
employed as special council for the
city of Grand Junction in the matter
of securing Hannah creek water
rights, was read. Its provisions are
almost identical with the agreement
and proposition made the council a
week ago by Mr.. Carnahan and re-
viewed at the time by the Sentinel.
The attorneys are to carry the litiga-
tion to a termination and their fee
is to be S2.5O0, one-third paid when
the contract is signed, one-third.
when the decree is entered in the
district court and the remainder
when the case reaches a final termin-
alton.
Alderman Plank moved the accep-
tance Of the contract. Then followed
discussion simply to get the opin-
ion of all members of the council and
each of the seven aldermen express
ed himself as being pleased with
the contract

Must Have Faith.

Attorney Carnahan in a brief ad-
dress said that the city council must
have faith in its attorneys or else not
secure the services of special attor-
neys and that the methods of con-
Quoting the case must be left to the
judgment of the attorneys.
Discussing the amount of water
to be asked for Mr.. Carnahan called
attention to the fact that today the
city is using between $50 and 175
inches daily, or about 100000 gal
Ions of water daily and this is the
heavy season, therefore $50 inches
furnishes 100000 gallons daily, or
water sufficient to supply a city of
from 10000 to $4,000 people Mr..
Carnahan remarked that today the
city is using far more water than is
usually necessary.
Attorney stated that the city ought
not go after more than the minimum
