be assessed unless advertised, which it
was too late to do.
A petition to have a manure nui-
sance abated in Thompson ravine creek
was received, and Mayor Meyer said
that he would attend to it.
Park Superintendent Blake said that

feet wide, near the Swedish Lutheran
cemetery, and had thrown the debris
down. He wished to know what to do
about it.

that this was the first that he had

The council, at its regular meeting
this forenoon, had a hearing on the as
scssment for paving Second and Main
streets, and confirmed the assessments.
There was no objection OH the part of
Second street property owners, and
the only Main street property owner
who appeared was NJ. Jose, who thought
that he ought to have the discount
of 10 per cent for cash provided for by
old charter.
Mayor Meyer stated that the city
would pay for the street intersections
and in front of the postoffice and fire
station and that the property owners
would only have to pay five per cent
more than they would have done un-
der the. old charter plan.
City Attorney Schnitt stated that it
would have been impossible to collect
the assessments if the old charter plan
was followed, as there is no board of
pubick works to make them, and that
the old charter was repealed when
the new one was adopted. Otherwise
the city would have been glad to have
followed the old plan, inasmuch as the
improvement was started under it.
The assessments were revised accord
ing to the plan approved Saturday
and adopted.
