AND LADDER TRUCK.
superintendent Instructed to Enforce
Prompt Payment of Water and
Light Bills. Other Matters.

When the city fathers gathered
around the table and Mayor Bell
raped for order Tuesday night a
busy and interesting session con-
fronted them. Beside the telephone
rate matter, an account of which is
printed elsewhere, considerable bus
mess was before the body for CON
sideration.
Alderman Martin, chairman of the
fire department committee, opened
the business of the meeting by sug-
costing that the small pair of horses
and the hook and ladder truck be
disposed Of in the interest Of ecOnO-
my. This could be done, said the al
derman, without affecting the eff
cheney of the department, as the
hose wagon carries ladders sufficient
to reach the top Of the average build
ing. The proposition caused consid-
cradle discussion, and action was
postponed for further investigation
and consideration.
Would Widen Street.
Alderman Whitchard, chairman of
the street committee, recommended
that the street near the colored Sar-
dis church be Widened, and present
ed map showing the amount of
land it would be necessary for the
city to obtain on either side of the
road in order to do so. Action was
deferred for the purpose of ascer-
tanning the cost of the proposed
change in the street.
A motion. was adopted to the eff
rect that the city will continue to
furnish stone curbing where citizens
desire to pave the sidewalk front
ing their property.
Licenses PrOrated.
Attorney R. R. Marlin appeared
Ior X. l.. Bateman & Co., proprietors
Oh a pool room, and asked that the
nrm be given a rebate of $50 on their
license for this year it being claimed
mat the business is virtually the
same as that of Peddy e Lewis, who
secured license in March, 1910, and
would have been entitled to renew
me same at prorata rate had they
not disposed of the pool room. 1t
was ordered that the sum asked for
De refunded to the petitioners. The
Roberts-Wall Grocery Co. were also
gwen a rebate on their license, as
Jhey succeeded Wall e Couric, who
had paid license for one year from
April LIST, 1910.
Mr.. T. j. Slade asked that he be
olnclally informed whether he was
subject to the license tax of SIS
year on dealers in building material,
stating that as he only sells shingles
ne should be relieved of at least
part OF the amount. 1t was held
mat Mr.. Slade was subject to the
luII amount of the tax.
More Land for Cemetery.
The necessity of more land for
cemetery purposes was discussed at
length, and it was stated that Mr..

Dawson Telephone Company by the
City Council of Dawson in 1908 is
that the company shall not charge
more than $3.50 a month for resi-
dence phones and $3.50 a month for
business phones.
Inc company spent a considerable
sum installing a new and modern
plant and improving its service, and
1t was found after several months
that no profit was being made for
the stockholders. A petition was
then filed with the city council ask
ing that the franchise be amended
and permission granted to charge
$500 per month for residence
phones and $3.50 for business
phones. The petition never came
to a vote in the council, and it was
nnally withdrawn from that body
and taken to the railroad commits
sion, which recently authorized the
raise in rates after sending an ex-
pert accountant and an expert tele-
phone man to Dawson to investigate
the books and appraise the property
of the company. According to the
report filed by these experts the val
ue of the cOmpany's property is S32,-
O31.63, on which it had made dur
ing twenty-three months a profit of
$667.97. The city system, independ-
ent of the country lines and systems
in smaller towns, made an estimated
earning of only $37.65 during u
months. The total value of the city
system is given at $2O,7O2.06.
The question involves a pretty le-
gal point, and promises an interest
ing lawsuit that will attract wide at
tention.

j. R. Mercer had agreed to sell the
city some land adjoining Cedar Hill.
The matter was referred to the Gem

to strictly enforce the ordinance re-
curing the payment of water and
light bills before or on the 9TH of
each month, and to shut off the sup
ply of the delinquents after that
date
A motion was adopted that the
appropriation of $500 per month to
the Dawson library, as part payment
of the expense of keeping it open
during the day, be continued.
