WILL NOT BOND
FOR THE SEWER
1T HAS BEEN DECIDED TO SELL,
SPECIAL IMPROVEMENT
WARRANTS.

The matter Of settling t.. sewer
question to the satisfaction Of the
majority of the people is bigger
Job than most people imagine. The
sewer proposition involves the city
In a big expense, and the matter CT
carrying the work through iii the
quickest and most economical man
ner is what the members of the
city council are now trying to study
out. The business section of the
city is very much in need of a sew
er. In fact it must have a sewer
very soon. The people of Lakeside
which comprises Ward l, is in an
outlying district, and in order for
them to have sewer they must
lave a separate system all their
own, which would be heavy drain
on the residents of that section,
many of whom feel that they
cannot stand the expense, and there
fore a sewer is not favored by them.
Then again, since they do not want
sewer they do not feel that it is
justice for them to be taxed for
sewers in the business district which
they would be in case the city was
bonded, so in order to do justice to
all concerned, it has been decided
not to bond for sewers, but is
thought best to create an improve
ment district of all that portion of
1.-THE city lying south of the railroad
tracks in Ward 2, and sell special
improvement warrants to pay for
the work, extending over a period
of three or five years, with six per
cent interest.
AS yet there is lot of prelimi-
nary work to be DONE The commit
tee looking after this matter has to
locate definite site for the septic
tank, and then secure title to the
ground for it. Then it must be set
tied how much Of the sewer should
be put in this year, and get the en-
gineers' estimates, so that it can be
definitely known Low much money
will have to be. raised to do the
work. After that comes the matter
of raising the money One plan is to
issue the warrants to the contractor
doing the work and let him dispose
of them whatever way he chooses,
and the other way, proposed by AL
derman Noble, is for the city to
sell the warrants to some bank and
pay the contractor in cash. 1t is
thought that the latter method will
bring the most satisfactory results,
At the last council meeting the
committee was instructed to have
all this information ready in detail
at the next regular meeting, so that
the work of getting construction un-
der way can be started at as an
early date as possible.

HAUNTED IN
THEIR DREAMS
ROAD PETITIONERS ARE LEAD
ING COMMISSIONERS A
MISERABLE LIFE.

Friends and fellow citizens, if you
think you nave troubles you ought
to be member of the board of
county commissioners just at this
time, when road projects are as
troublesome as dandelionS en- a
lawn, and as numerous You will
forget any other troubles You ever
had. There never has been a time
when the county commissioners did
not have plenty of highway difficult
ties to pester them, but what they
have had before was but a flea-bite
compared to what they are under
going now. 1t is caused largely by
the reservation road problems, and
if you should take vote OF the
commissioners on the question you
would get a unanimous verdict to
the effect that they would have been
resigned if the Lake county bill had
gone through. Not that they wish
to lose anything from Flathead coun
y,but with five hundred reservation
people roaring for roads, and no
two of them roaring for the same
road, or agreeing where any one
road shall or ought to run, there is
a hubbub that is distracting to a
person who loves quiet life, or who
is satisfied with a moderate amount
of rumpus. 1t it were not just for
the looks of the thing, it is proba-
BILE that two or three members of
nations. Chairman Edge gets the
worst of it. In addition to being
chairman, the reservation is the
territory allotted to him, and what
the reservationists do to him is
plenty. Good can retreat to his
farm, and escape between sessions.
Main gets into his office behind
closed doors, gives the office force
orders to say he is out of town and
escapes most of them. If he hap
pens to be waylaid on the street he
blandly assures his interrogation that
he would be glad to do anything for
him, but the reservation is in Edges
territory. and it would be impolite
for him to interfere. "Now, if
there is any little thing up in my
district l can do for you I'll be
glad, etc, ETC." But the reservation
man doesn't give two boots, or even
one, for roads in the Bad Rock dis
trict. 1t is reservation roads he
wants, and he wants them right off
and exactly where he says they
should go. And so he hunts up Joe
Edge, and turns loose on him. Edge
is getting a hunted look in his face,
and if you walk up quietly to him
and say roads," he will Jump os

err at the present time is the fin

SPECIAL MEETING
OF CITY COUNCIL
SEW En- PROPOSITION DIS
CCSSED AND LICENSE
ORDINANCE REVISED,

The city council met in special
session last Thursday night, and
thrashed out the sewer proposition
for some time. 1t was decided not
to bond the city for this work, but
to sell special improvement war
rants instead. This will arrange
matters so that the Lakeside dis
trict will not have to stand any of
the expense of a sewer in the bus
mess district, which has been such
a strong objection by them.
The ordinance relating to the is
suance of special improvement dis
trict warrants was read and passed
upon its first reading.
The numbers for the houses hav-
ing arrived, it was decided to
charge each property owner SO
cents, which will cover the expense
of the numbers and Of having them
put on. The city marshall was in
structed to oversee the work, and
hire man to put them on.
A petition was read from the fire
department asking the city council
70 stand half the expense of fixing
up the rear room in the city hall
for quarters for the firemen. The
estimate for doing the work
amounted to $127, and all the coun-
Gil men expressed themselves as be
ing pleased in helping out in this
work, as the fire department is
sQrely in need of a respectabl
meeting place.
The police magistrate, who hal
only been receiving a salary of So
sc per month, asked for an increase
to $25 per month, and after due
consideration this was granted.
The ordinance committee ha,
had for their deliberation for sew
eral weeks the revising of the Ii.
cense ordinance. They recommend
ed that the ordinance be left as il
was with the following amendments
AAdI III 1ACCA6t US loOuOu lOI d pCl
iod of less than three months; that
the yearly license be raised from 81
to SO cents on each telephone in
strument used in the city; that the
license for the bank be cut from S1(
to $3.50 per quarter; theatre license
for travelling shows be reduced
from IS to SO per formance shoot.
ing galleries be raised from IS tc
$40 per quarter; that liquor and
retail license be kept separate; that
the license on a hand laundry be re-
duced to $1.5O, but the license fol
an agency be left where it is. The
matter of licensing the roominf
houses they did not take any ac
tion on, but left it to the council tt
decide. II was discussed at length
but no conclusion could be ar
rived at, SO it was turned back tt
the committee again to settle be
fore the next meeting.
The council also recommended
that the committee take up the mat
ter of licensing agencies sellin,
boats and gasolene engines, and als'
land agents.
1t was proposed to amend th'
sprinkling ordinance so that hos
can be used at any time of the da!
provided that a nozzle is used ant
that the parties using it stand ant
hold it. This is done to do ava.
with the careless parctice of leavin,

1t was also decided to provide
/ place for tying teams, so that thos'
coming to town would not have tt

ing post on the main streets.

Bradley'S Election.

After some weeks of futile
balloting, MIR. Bradley says he
notified the insurgents, (the anti
Beckham Democrats) that unless
they voted for him the next day
he would resign his caucus nomi-
nation, thereby absolving the Re-
publican members from further
supporting him, in which event he
Bradley predicted enough Re-
publicans would vote for Mr..
Beckham to elect him, in spite of
the insurgent Democrats. Under
this threat four of the insurgents
voted for Mr.. Bradley the next
day and he was thereby elected"
From O'Rear's explanation he
would have US believe that Brad
ley bluffed his way to the Senate.
