Later Meeting

Al Denver

Some heated arguments took place
last evening at the city commission
meeting when D.. }. McGillis and his
attorney protested to the grade that
had been established in front of his
property on Eighth street between b
and e avenues. Mr.. McGillis stated
that if the walk was put in on the
present grade it would be ordered in
by the supreme court.
Attorney Register, who represented
Mr.. McGillis was the first speaker to
have the floor and explained to the
commission that the. grade was not
proper and that it would injure Mr..
McGillis property several hundred
dollars. Mr.. Register stated that if
the grade was established he thought
that the city commisson should make
another grade in order to save Mr..
McGillis from being compelled to fill
up his lot. During his cross fire OF
0rat0ry he stated that he and ma
jority of the citizens thought that
there was too much cutting and slic-
ing" done in the commission and he
suggested that this be eliminated but
Immediately afterwards he asked the
commission to lower the grade, if it
had been established, in front of Mr..
McGillis' property to save him the
cost Of filling up his lot.
Commissioner Jackson was next in
order and he stated that if the grade
had been established that he for one,
would stick to it, and vote against
establishing another grade.
Mr.. Register pointed out to the com.
mission where few grades had been
established so as to benefit the prop
erty owner but it was shown by the
city engineer that most of these
grades had been established before
the ordinance conctrning the estab.
lished grade had passed the commits
sion. Ao1QAI III
The members Of the commission
agreed that no more grades would be
established. Mr.. Register then stated
that the walk was not being con.
structed on the established grade and
a committee composed of the city
engineer and ctreet commissioner was
appointed to look up the matter and
report at the next meeting.
Shortly after another subject had
been taken up, Mr. McGillis started
another argument concerning the
grade and when he was informed by
President Williams that the matter
had been disposed Of

as follows:
"Cnaer the rules of the democratic

They are men Of the highest charac'

said we have not what the British
