German Day,

Burlington is to celebrate German
Day this year. A number of citizens
have been feeling the public pulse
and have found that the sentiment is
practically unanimous in favor of ar
ranging a big German celebration
next October. At mass meeting to
be held July 16, the preliminary ar
are to be made and an
will be perfected which
will take charge of the arrangement.

Grafton and believed the paving with
concrete at an expense of not to ex-
coed $4,000 to $4,000 for sixty foot
lot would not be Objectionable.
Now and then, in the midst of the
earnest and somewhat spirited argu-
ment, in which Mayor S. " Reynolds
was doing the honors of the council,
making the explanations, etc., a fash
of wit and fun broke through and the
presence of the women made a lively
meeting. Once when Mayor Reynolds
accused some of the women with hav7
ing money and matrimonial inten-
tions, one of the company flashed
back that had they money they would
have been married long ago. This
brought the laugh on the mayor
Each one, councilmen not excluded,
was willing to pave the other fellows
block, but when it came down to
their own block,-they wanted the
work started somewhere else. Mayor
Reynolds wanted substitute for
Fourth avenue and asked for some
member of the council to mention
some street upon which they would
agree. Councilman Minnick wanted
North l. street paved, and Blattner
threatened to give away all of his
property. c avenue was proposed
for Improvement and when this was
frowned on the Mayor quit and Camp
field wanted to adjourn without con-
sidering another foot.
Other Matters.
Following the disposition of the
paving differences the council adopt
ed the specifications for the sewer
bids and same will be printed and
ready for the bidders by Saturday,
June %. The semimonthly claims
were allowed and when adjournment
was moved the hour was rapidly APP
preaching midnight.
Prior to the other proceedings Of
the evening Mayor Reynolds made
statement to the council members,
asking that no action be taken at the
session upon the storm sewer under
consideration for the relief of Second
ward property owners. The mayor
ehpldl1eu JHdJ he Has Dtcu III CoHlSl-
ence with officials of the Burlington
Railway and that they had expressed
a willingness to join issues with the
city in the proposed improvement and
to stand their full and equitable share
of the expense necessary to install
the sewer. The officials, explained
the mayor, had stated that they had
no intention of working hardship on
any property owner of the city and
stood ready to do anything that was
fair and right. The railway people
do not propose to take advantage of
settlements made some time ago
through local attorneys but will stand
their share of the effort to rectify
any harm that may have been done
in the past. Communication is now
in progress between the mayor and
the officials of the Rock Island Rail-
way and he hopes to have the matter
in shape by the next meeting of the
council or an extra session may be
called to take up the matter when 1t
is ready. In consideration of the
statements made by the mayor the
subject was not called up for action.
