The city council was called to order
at p. m. yesterday, the mayor and
the full board OF aldermen. many
members of the Commercial Club and
other citizens being present.
The ordinance designating the time
for fixing the tax rate was amended
so as to change the time from De-
cember to May.
The committee Of the Commercial
Club presented the proposition OF Mr.
I.awler. of New Orleans, to establish
a -four mill and power plant in Bryan
The proposition was read by Mr.. A.
w. Buchanan, chairman of the COM
mittee, as follows:
Jordan T. Lawler, of the city Of New
Orleans, having submitted to this
council a proposition for the furnish
ing by him, or his assigns, of power

Ratified and Signed This Afternoon

AS announced yesterday afternoon,
the city council met again at 4:S0
p. m. for a further consideration of
the proposed contract with Mr.. Law.
Ter relative to the -four mill and power
plant.
After having been in session the
greater part of the day, the work was
completed at o'clock, and on motion
of Alderman Henderson the PROPOSE
tion of Mr.. Lawler was unanimously
accepted Alderman Henderson was
instructed to have the contract re-
written as amended, and another meet.
ing of the council was called for 4:30
o'clock this afternoon for its final
passage and to be signed by the mayor
and secretary on the part of the city
and by Mr.. Lawler for himself. The
contract was completed this morning
by Mr.. Henderson and Mr.. Lawler as
directed by the council, and there is
hardly a doubt but that it will be
signed up this afternoon.
This appears to be long stride for
ward and will make things get busy
in old Bryan in the very near future
and stay busy. The contractor agrees
to pump the water from the city's
wells into the distributing mains, res.
ervoir and tower, not less than 1901
gallons per day, amply sufficient for
a municipal water plant, and also to
furnish the city electric current suffi-
cent for a municipal lighting system.
This will enable the city even in its
present financial condition to have its
own water and light systems and be.
gin at once the installation Of sewer
system.
The Eagle will publish a complete
synopsis of the contract tomorrow, If
finally adopted and signed this after.

know exactly what has been done, the
cost, and all about it.

Plans for Flour Mill and Power Plant

The plans for the flour mill and
power plant to be built by Messrs.
]. T. and H. NJ. Lawler are complete
The new enterprise will be, with pos
sibly the exception of the oil mill and
fertilizer works, the largest manufac-
turing plant ever erected Ill bryan.
The elder Mr.. Lawler is expected Mon
day, and after his arrival he will be
a permanent resident, devoting all his
time to building, equipping and oper-
ating the great enterprise over which
he presides.
The first of the fourteen carloads Of
machinery was shipped from New Or
leans to Bryan on Saturday and will
arrive the latter part of the week.
Arrangements have been made to
store the fine machinery in the brick
warehouse and the heavy machinery
will be unloaded on the ground at the
site of the plant and covered, to await
the completion of the buildings.
The power plant will be a one-story
concrete building. The flour mill
building will be a four-story frame
structure covered with corrugated
iron, with a seven-story elevator an.
mex having a capacity of $4,000 bushels
of wheat. Everything will be of the
most modern type for handling grain
and for making high-grade -four. The
main office of the company will be To-
Gated in a building on Main street,
and here a full line of electrical ma
chinery will be carried for the pur-
pose of installing power machinery for
small plants desiring power service.
Bryan has been made the home Of
flee of the H. T. Lawler Milling Com
pany and there are branch offices at
New Orleans, La, and Havana, Cuba.
Through the fact that Bryan has the
advantage of being common traffic
point the freight rate from the grain
district to the seat of consumption
with the privilege of milling in transit
and of one years storage, is not in
creased over the original through rate
on the grain.

We advise all the citizens of Bryan
to suspend judgment until they have
carefully read the contract and ascer-
tanned the meaning of every important
point. Do not look for mistakes. Re-
member that he who expects to see
ghost is almost sure to see one. We
have confidence in the wisdom and in
tegrity of the mayor and aldermen,
and take it for granted that they have
done the best that could be done for
the city. Mr.. Lawler was entitled to
a square deal. 1t would not have been
right to make the terms unreasonably
hard for him. even if it had been pos
sible. To secure the best results, a
contract must be mutually advanta-
geous, and we hope it will be found so
in this case.

Mr.. Lawler said: Il don't believe |

thing to do is to build the proposed

Then with the increase and growth OF
the schools a fiourishing city will be

Mr.. Lawler stated that the plant
they would install would be the most

obtained, and that If possible he
would have the matter settled by to-

lDally Eagle OI FEBRUARY L, lJll.J
The contract between the city of
Bryan and the Messrs. Lawler of New
Orleans was finally ratified and passed
at the special meeting of the city
council yesterday afternoon. On mo.
ton the same was signed in open
council by the mayor and secretary for
the city and by Mr.. Lawler for HIM
self.
The contract is already pretty well
understood by the people of Bryan, in
that it is an agreement on the part
of the LAWYERS to establish in Bryan a
-four mill and in connection Herewith
to pump the city's water for its water
plant and furnish electric current for
its lighting system. To carry out these
main provisions requires many details
which are set out in the contract and
which will be published in full as soon
as The Eagle can get time to put the
contract in type.
After the contract was signed the
question of the city purchasing the
distributing plant of the present water
company was taken up. On motion Of
Alderman Henderson a committee was
appointed to confer with the water
company to see if they would sell
to the city and at what price. A special
meeting will be called as soon as this
committee is ready to report. At this
called meeting the sewerage question
will be taken UP and steps taken to
proceed at once with the work
Mr.. Lawler, ST., thanked the council
and citizens for the active interest
