CITY COUNCIL.

At the last meeting of the city
council petition was presented ask
ing permission to erect ornamental
lights on that part of Washington
street between Fourth and Fifth.
AS some of the property owners are
not in favor of the plan, the matter
was laid over.
A petition for a market square to
be located on the west side of the
river was read. The contention
raised was that the present market
square is soon to be used as city hall
site, and must be abandoned, and
that as a large percentage of the
farmers who haul produce to the
square live west of the city, the
market place should be located on
that side of the river. What's the
matter with having one on both sides :?
Swanson q Juedes were granted a
license to conduct a saloon on Third
avenue, near engine house No. 2.
When they applied for such license
fifteen women living in the neighbor-
hood demonstrated against the grant
ing of the license, and it was held up.
A sewer was ordered to be con-
structed on Humboldt Ave-, between
Sixth and Seventh streets.
A petition from residents of the
west side asked that the macadam-
lied streets on that side of the river
be cleaned at once.
A petition from vehicle owners
asked that the "Rules of the Road"
ordinance be amended by cutting out
that section compelling vehicle own
erS, when stopping at a curb stone,
to have their right hubs next to the
curb. The city attorney was ordered
to draw new ordinance.
An ordinance was adopted increas-
ing the limit of speed at which autos
may be driven, from twelve to fifteen
miles per hour. This was done to
conform with the new state law. The
ordinance can be found in this issue
of the Pilot.
Bridge street, from the bridge east
to First street, was ordered to be
macadamized.
An ordinance was adopted which
authorized the committee on streets
and bridges to secure the necessary
equipment for repairing macadamiZed
streets.
A resolution killing the medical in
spectiOn in schools was passed. The
board of education and health officer
are to be heard from in the matter,
and there is a possibility that the
action will be rescinded,
The library board submitted a re-
port stating that the circulation of
books the past year was 50,840, an in
crease over the previous year of 5000.
Tie sum of 1852 rs was spent for new
books and the board recommends
that at least 81, 200 should be thus
expended yearly. The total income
was So, 3,2l6.07; the expenditures $685.
%. The board recommended that
the tax levy for the maintenance of
the library be increased to from 50, 500
to SO, 900.
The chief of police reported that
during July total of fifty persons
had been confined in the city Jail.
The council adjourned to meet
again Aug. IA, at which time plans
for the new city hall will be accepted
or rejected.

COME AND SEE US.

The paving contract, covering
Third street, was terminated on FIJI
| day night of last week. The work
! began in June and has been hanging
| fire at several stages in its progress,
due to wet weather, inability TO geG
| material, tearing up of bad concrete
| job, etc. Chris. Johnson, the contrac-
tor for the city, has been on the JoD
most of the time, but states tnaI ne
never had so much misfortune 1all III
one bunch as he has on this job
The fact that Third street is COM
pleted will be quite relief to every
one. Never since the town emerged
from an Indian settlement has IL
been torn up as it was this summer.
The pavement on Third street was
laid under city supervision, and Mr.
Johnson has given the municipality
good pavement, one that will outwear
the life of the average citizen, IL Is
believed. Complaint, however, has
been made in several instances as to
grades which have been established.
At several places along the street, we
are informed, the water stands in the
center of the street and gutter and
the pitch is not sufficient to carry IL
away.
Since the taxpayers manifested
their approval of the creosoted blocks,
lot more, to use a common express
sion, has been learned about the
qualities Of the material A number
of former brick men have been
brought over to the creosoted block
side of the fence, since they have
seen the pavement. Government re-
ports and Investigations by munich
palitieS have converted them, they
say.
The city has been a long time in
getting a good pavement on the street
mentioned, and all will favor a change,
even if the blocks are not the most
desirable pavement.
Mr.. Johnson finished his contract
on Thursday night and the street
railway company on Friday. Mr..
JOhnsOn's last stretch of pavement
was between Mcclellan and Grant
streets, and the street car company
wound up it's contract by completing
stretch between Scott and Mcclellan
streets.
Mr.. Johnson has been working the
past two days in completing the block
of paving on Scott street between
Third and Fourth.
During his stay in the city he has
made many friends, with the public
and with his workmen. He employed
all home labor, except three or four
experts whom he brought with him.
He has met every demand made on
him by the city.
The result of this summers tear-up
is that we have one of the best little
cities in the state, Third street to-
day, with it's fine pavement, Orna-
mental lights and absence of telephone
poles, will compare favorably with
any street in the United States. 1t
is ours, it has been paid for an d we
are proud of it.
We are soon to have ornamental
lights on Washington and Scott
streets, but we may not stop there.
More paving is coming, and there is
strong talk of inlaying the next with
silver dollars. 1t will give us better
standing, especially with Merrill peo-
pie.

Sheriff OCOnnOr reports that when
he and the deputies arrived in Eagle
River last Tuesday with Tony I'M
perio and Philip ROberti that nearly
the entire populace of the town met
them at the depot. There were loud
cries OF Chang the DagOes," "String
them up to the first telegraph pole,"
ETC., but no attempt was made to
carry these suggestions into effect
The prisoners had a hearing and were
bound over for trial on a first degree
murder charge.
and meeting the crowd they were in
a nervous state, and importuned the
officers to protect them.
From developments which have
been manifested since the two have
been incarcerated there is reason to
believe that they belong to a we'll
organized gang of law breakers. There
are facts which the newspapers, fam
iliar with the case, cannot give the
public at the present time. Letters
from as far east as New York City
have been received by them. They
will probably be tried at the fall
term of court for Villas county. 1t
appears that there is a plentiful sup
ply of money back of them, and it is
possible that the trial may be taken
to some other county. Four other
dagos have been hanging around Wau-
sau, trying to communicate with tie
prisoners and followed them to Eagle
River. AS it was thought that they
were planning Jail delivery the Off
GERS told them to get out of town and
not tarry while doing it. A close
guard will be kept over the prisoners,
to Illustrate any attempt which may
be made to aid them in escaping.
