COUNCIL PASSED
new FRANCHISE
CITY COUNCIL PASSED NEW
STREET RAILWAY FRANCHISE
LAST NIGHT AT BRIEF SESSION
CITY TREASURER WANTS
MORE SALARY.

The new franchise Of the Fargo
Moorhead Street Railway Co., was
passed by the city council without any
alteration whatever last night at a
brief session. Perfect harmony pre-
vailed and after the reading Of the
new ordinance and a motion to put it
up for final passage carried, the coun-
Gil adjourned until this evening when
the question Of the paving of alleys
viii be considered.
City Auditor Watkins read the new
ordinance after which Mr.. Cupler, who
acted as chairman Of the ordinance
committee in the absence Of MIR.
Hanson, reported to the council that
the new instrument was much the
same as the one formerly in use. He
said that ii was the one agreed on by
the members of the council and the
commercial club and the oficials Of
the street railway company, with the
exception Of the compensation to be
paid the city after the year 1924 which
would average about $25 per car.
In his verbal report Mr.. Cupler
stated that Nj. Hubbard had gone to
Chicago and taken the matter up with
the head office there with the result
that 1t was felt that hat provision
would better be eliminated. There was
nc haggling over the matter as IL was
shown wherein they would eventually
have to spend about $40,0 900 in paving.
The new ordinance virtually provides
that the company must come to the
council for permission to extend any
Of fits lines and that the carrying Of
any freight, which is granted, shall be
regulated by the council itself.
Any power other than electricity
can be used for this purpose, with the
exception of steam, with the permits
sion Of the council. The final clause
of the franchise provides for the Dill
worth extension and states should
that line never be built, the former
franchise, No.299, will still be in force
and the n just passed will be null
and void.
On motion of MI. Mcdonald, the
amendments and corrections offered
by the ordinance committee were in
jected which was followed by a mo-
ton that the ordinance be placed
upon it's second reading and ready for
final passage. Both motions were Sec
onded by Mr.. Rupert and carried. The
ordinance passed by a unanimous
vote.
Another ordinance fixing the salary
Of the city treasurer at $500 and his
bond at 100000 was placed on it's first
| reading and referred to the salary
committee. Following the allowance
of several estimates by the city engi-
neer, the council adjourned until to-
night.
