COUNCIL MEETING TOMORROW.
Sidewalks and Sewers Probably Will
Be Main Topic at Meeting.

The Houghton village council will
meet at the village hall tomorrow
evening in an adjourned session. Prob
ably the most interesting matter to
come up for consideration will be the
proposal to enforce the building of ce-
ment sidewalks in front of various
property throughout the village where
the owners have failed TO take this ac-
ton. About sixty days ago the coun-
ell passed a resolution ordering that
notices Of sixty days be sent TO vari-
Gus property owners where the walks
were i'm bad condition ordering the
owners to put i'm suitable sidewalks or
have this work done by the village and
the cost assessed against the property.
The sixty day limit on the first batch
Of notices sent out expires tomorrow
and 1t is certain that some Of the
members Of the council, will urge that
the village make good its promise or
threat TO put in the walks. Many,
probably majority of those who re-
ceived notices, have either built their
walks or have already let the con-
tract but some few have absolutely
refused to take any action and it is
these people that the trustees are go
ing TO get after Another matter In
this Connection will be the report of
the street committee on the number OF
cross walks that are needed i'm the
village and these will probably be or
dered put I'm, either by advertising and
letting a bid for the entire job or by
accepting the proposal of one con-
tractor to put them in and get his pay
I'm the spring.
The matter of the construction Of
the sewer in East Houghton and OF
the installation of a system of garbage
collection and disposal are also topics
upon which the council may Zoe called
to act tomorrow night.
