Mrs. Knight visited this friend In regard

CITY COUNCIL AND DREDGE
Committee of whole Holds Session
on the Matter.

on the Matter.
That the city council should in due eau
ton, Inspect its dredge before the return
of the machinery from the w. c.. Rankin
farm near Tarkio. Mo. was the opinion ex-
pressed at the meeting of the committee
Of the whole Of the city council last even
ing, and it is likely that Aldermen Rigdon
and Jensen will go to Tarkio for hat pur-
pose at an early date.
Mayor Maloney said he had been notified
by Mr.. Rankin Of the latter's intention to
diSmantle the dredge and ship 1t back to
Council Bluffs at once. The mayor has
written Mr.. Rankin that the city will ex-
pect the return of the big flatboat on which
this dredging machinery is floated. The
huge float which stood on the bank Of In
dian creek near it's outlet into the river,
was taken apart and shipped to Rankin
with the dredge, but It is understood, was
practically rebuilt. 1t will be necessary to
take the float to pieces in order 10 ship
1t home, as it is too wide to be shipped on
the flat cars.
The councilmen discussed plans for carry
ing on the work on the creek and the
question was raised whether the creek bed
could not be widened and deepened by the
use Of some other appliance than the
dredge at less expense. 1t requires a crew
OF five men to successfully operate the
dredge. Mayor Maloney suggested a saw
ing of expense by doing away with the
luxury of a foreman to superintend the
work, giving that task to the engineer, who
Is responsible in the end. for the work.
1t was finally decided that the dredge
afforded the best and cheapest method for
the work. The city engineer will be in
structed TO prepare an estimate of the cost
of the work proposed on the lower creek.
The petition Of Vine street property own
ers, to have the street opened through from
Bryant street, which petition has been
pending before the committee of the whole
for several months, was finally laid on the
table. The councilmen agreed that the plan
suggested was not feasible.
The communication from Paul Ayles-
worth with his proposition for ferreting
out and collecting delinquent mulct taxes
on liquor storage houses, was laid on the
table. The councilmen decided that II such
taxes are due the city, it was the work of
the city collector to discover 1t and pro-
coed to collect.
The committee adjourned until 2:3O o'clock
this afternoon to assess curbings.

The Northwestern company has not so
far issued any such orders and the Off

In the past, years ago, when strikes were
in prospect the company stored large
quantities of coal in Clinton, Boone and
