Year
Matter Of Rental Of City Hall
to Be Definitely Settled
Next Meeting

The city council met in adjourned
session Friday night with Mayor.
Smyth in the chair. After being call
led to order a motion was made to- adj
tjourn which resulted In tie vote,
three voting aye and three no. The
mayor voted no." thus defeating the
motion to adjourn. II
III. A resolution was introduced, the.
adoption of which was moved by
Alderman Reade, to levy $20,523 to
cover the appropriations made by
the ordinance passed at the previous
meeting. Alderman Patterson moved
to lay the resolution on the table. The
mayor ruled this out Of order as the
law compelled the council to make
the levy Alderman Richholt present
ed a resolution and offered it as a
substitute for the other levy of $26,-
623. This was seconded, and on al
roll call Slattery, Taylor, Wilcox,
Richholt, Horner, Patterson, Fisher
and Hinckley voted aye. Reade, Orr,
Marquette and Larson voted no. and
the resolution carried
The only difference between the
lresoIutions was that Richholt's reso-
luton fixing the levy providing So
1000 for the water fund, otherwise the
resolutions were similar.
A large bunch of bills were present.
I ed for street work which were allow
ed when properly approved. ~.
Alderman RichhoM objected to pay
ing the bills approved by the city
engineer, or the committee on streets
and grades. *
DR.. Englehardt then addressed the
council regarding the building Of a
/ side walk in front of his home. If
he builds on the present grade it will
have to be done again when the
street lis graded. II he excavates
down to the grade before the street
is graded it will make trench six
1 feet deep in front Of his house, which
will befa nuisance to him and every.
one else. The matter was referred
to the committee on streets and
grades. ~ ss47 :.
The mayor had the city auditor
read a communication, in which he
requested information from the city
attorney; to whether he ought tc
sign the warrants for rent of the city
hall. The answer was that Mr.. Tay
lor had no interest in the building, sc
far as the records show, and, in fact
he had no direct or indirect interest
in it on such fact being shown, there
could be no legal objection to signing
the warrants.
There was some desultary talk
about this matter, and the council ad
