COUNCIL S ATTITUDE

Charles Arkin, the West State
street jeweler, is very much put out on
account of the failure of the city coun-
ell to grant the permit for the erection
of the ornamental clock in front of his
store.
Arkin has a picture of the clock he
proposed to erect and declares that it
will not obstruct the sidewalk He
points out that a large clock is a pub
lie necessity and that this should be
considered outside of its value to him
as an advertisement.
Arkin points to number of other
obstructions. such rs livery vehicles.
etc. which litter up the streets un-
necessarily. He says that he has spent
a great deal of money in improving
West State street and intended to inn
prove West Sibley street. but that IL
the city takes that sort of an attitude
towards his business he thinks it shows
little appreciation.

CLIMAX
MAY CONE
At MEETING
Both Village and City Off
ials-Elect of West Ham
mond Are to Gather To-
night and Work Out Prob
lens of Diplomacy.

A climax in the political situation in
West Hammond growing out of the
question whether the place is a village
or city will be reached this evening
when the newly elected city officials
will take their seats. Inasmuch as
some of the village officials are also
determined to retain their seats. the
occasion viii afford a grand opportun-
ity for tact and diplomacy. This diplo-
macy may manifest itself through any
avenue most opportune, and may be
either formal session by either or
both bodies or tactful withdrawal by
one or the other. A smoke OUT and
lemons from q demonstrative public
are not said to be not beyond the pos
sibilities for this evening.
Expect Legislative Action
The large vote that was cast for
the city officials is given as evidence
that the taxpayers of West Hammond
generally believe the city form of gov
ernment to be the proper one for the
place. and a majority of the village
trustees are said to be ready to lay
down their office without further oppo-
sition. John Hessler, the village presi-
dent and Henry Fritsche, of the
trustees. are the pillars in the village
form OF government who are strong
est opposed to the city officials taking
their seats this evening.
K NJ. Woszczynski, the mayor-elect;
l. Mankowski. the clerk-elect. and
John Jaranowski. one of the aldermen
elect, appeared before John Wayman.
the states attorney, yesterday in an
swer TO a summons from him to discuss
the quo warranto proceedings which

stigation of the village officials They
win have another hearing next Satur-
day. But some definite action is to be
taken by the Illinois legislature this
week legalizing the Incorporation OF
West Hammond village and by
an amendment also making 1T city
and this may have some bearing on the
quo warranto proceedings.

PUBLIC
ASKS FOR
SOLUTION

Since John F. Kuhlman, the street
commissioner caused a warning notice
to be printed warning the public
against throwing paper. fslbbish brick
bats and bottles either into the gar
bage box or into I alleys, the con-
scientious public is asking itself and
the street commissioner how it should
dispose of this undesirable material.
In his notice Commissioner Kuhl-
man called attention to the city or
dinance No. II. which provides for
SIS fine upon conviction for littering
up the public thoroughfare.
But what are we maintaining street
cleaning department for if we are not
permitted to throw everything into the
alley?" asks the public.
Must Have ReceptacIes.
Mr.. Kuhlmans answer is that the
taxpayers should use a little common
sense. There are ordinances which
provide that every property owner
should maintain a garbage box and a
separate ash can on his rear lot line,
and that the garbage box is to used
only to hold the table and kitchen Of
fal. and that the ash can Is to be used
for ashes only. Under the head of gar
bage ashes are not included paper,
bottles. tin cans, broken chinaware. old
mattresses and tree limbs, and it is
in the disposition of the latter mate
rial that the taxpayer must use his own
good judgment. Under the present cir
eurnstances and rate of taxation the
street cleaning department has all it
can do to cart away the garbage and
ashes without assisting everybody in
helping to clean out the yards and
Easements of the rubbish that has ac-
cunulated during the winter time.
Commissioner kuhlman, in discuss
ing the problem with a TINES report
er this morning, said the warning was
not directed so much against the
small housekeeper. who now and then
throws an empty bottle or tin can into
the ash can. as against the wholesale
violator of the ordinance who scatters
an armful of paper broadcast into the
alley and throws his empty bottles by
the dozen into the alley without caring
whether they hal on .he ground or
into receptacle He said that in q
number of cases he was compelled to
cart away old mattresses and tree
limbs. The paper, mattresses and tree
! limbs could have been burned, he said
and in case where rubbish piles UT

Chicago. May a - Twenty-Five
hundred brick haulers employed by
the brick manufacturers in the Chi
cago district SO called. embracing
parts of Indiana and Lake county,
announced their intention of striking
today unless the manufacturers
agreed to a conference WITH the

has retarded building progress. but
the brickyards are full of material
and the haulers could be kept busy
