NELSON GETS new CONTRACT
Repairs for Mill Creek Bu|khead
Are Awarded

1t was practically agreed at last
nights council meeting to award Con-
tractor F. E. Nelson the contract for
repairing the bulkhead on the north
side of Mill creek at the intersection
of First and Rose streets, it being
pointed out that he was practically the
only man in the city equipped to do
this work.
Councilmen Glasford and Mexican
urged immediate action on this work as
this is now the low water season, and
if the work is delayed, freshets will
likely prevent its being completed this
damage to property by the high water
this winter.
According to Councilman Glasford.
there is 80 feet of the stone bulkhead
which needs repairing. This will be
replaced with concrete.
Contractor Nelson has offered to do
this work at the same figure for which
he took the contract for the concrete
work near fire station No on East
Alder street.
The report of the street committee
advising that the work be begun at
once was unanimously adopted. The
repairs will likely be commenced upon
Mr.. Nelson filing a written contract.
A second payment of $500 was
granted Contractor Nelson for work
already completed on the East Alder
bulkhead near fire station No. 2. This
leaves a balance of $500 due the con-
tractor.
Mr.. Nelson said last night that ow
ing to the large amount of work on
the hands of the city engineer, he has
not yet been able to go over the East
Alder street work with him and figure
out just what the total cost will be.
In reply to a request from the trus-
tees of the city library, a warrant
was ordered drawn for the sum of
1925 for the maintenance of that in
stitution.
A renewal of liquor license was
granted to the proprietOrs of the Eagle

The appointment of Frank Miller
to take the place of James w. Ware.
formerly pipeman at fire station No. 2,
who resigned last Sunday, was rati-
fed
Upon motion from Councilman
Glasford, it was voted to furnish Street
Commissioner Champion with a -.
wagon to carry him in his travels in
looking after the city streets. Mayor
Kellough casually mentioned that the
wagon would be convenient in the case
of councilmanic fishing parties.
The report of the street committee
that the WhitehOuse-C Crawford COM
pany be given the contract for supply
ing the lumber to be used in bu:i<nead-
ing Mill creek from Clinton street 10
east Greene street was adopted.
Recommendations were made that
the Wind River Lumber company be
awarded the contract for supplying
lumber for street work.
TIE long tabled bill posting ordi-
nance was unearthed last night by
Councilman Glasford who pleaded for
its passage on the grounds that wet
weather is approaching and that upon
its arrival pedestrians will be liable &c
many hard falls resulting from slipping
on paste spilled on the side walks.
Owing to the fact there was not z
full hoard present the ordinance was
again tabled, but will probably he
brought up once mole at an early date.
