zens Of WatersoWn and advising them

|resentative body Of business men got
| together in the Commercial club room
and listened for al hour or more To
Mr.. Claussen's address anent his exs
eprience in the paving business In
st. Paul and elsewhere. Among other
things, he said that the people would
never be absolutely united on the kind
Of material to be used in paving
there would always be a difference Of
opinion, owing, Of course, to the diff
ference in cost, etc, but he thought
a majority Of the people in st. Paul
or Minneapolis would favor creosote
block paving in preference to any
other. He spoke Of the 3-inch block
and said it might be all right but he
didn't know, because 1t had never
been tried out. 1t might be all right
but he hardly thought he would rec
Commend Its use on business streets.
I'He said the life Of creosote blocks
was fifteen years; that is, they would
mot have to be replaced under fifteen
years and he thought in WatertoWn
they would easily last twenty years,
Ifaa he knew of paving that had been
down ten years that showed practi-
lcally no wear, but after twenty years
he thought the blocks would have to
/ be relaid. Every paving, he said, had
its disadvantages. The disadvantages
tof creosLte block pavement is buck
| ling and slipping. In number cf
cities they have had trouble with the
blocks buckling on account OF getting
iwet and swelling, but st. Paul has had
mo trouble in that respect, owing prob.
ably to the fact that she sprinkles her
streets constantly summer and winter.
The worst thing about block paving,
he said, is that it is very slippery.
And it certainly is slippery, he said.
Asphalt is a splendid paving mater.
lial, in the opinion of Mr.. Claussen.
HE knew OF asphalt paving that had
1been In twenty-six years and was still
lin good condition, but he thought as
phalt would not be advisable in a city
the size Of WaTertoWn because Of the
fact that it required a big outlay for
machinery and equipment to lay and
keep il in repair. Asked as to uni:
iformity of wear he said that a uniform
wearing material could be more eas-
lily be selected In this creosote blocks
| than in any other material. N fact,

TheMa yor Tells Why
Taxes are Increased

r Inc eQltOr OF the SATURDAY news
met Mayor H. A. Wagner the other
day and said: Say, Mr.. Wagner,
can you tell me how it is that I hear
almost everybody kicking on their
taxes this year?n
The mayor was quick to respond to.
the question and said: "The reason
is very plain and simple. Some peo-1
pie have gotten it in their heads that
it is the. fault of the city commission
ers and the commission form CT gov
eminent. It is not 1t is brought
about because the city council under
the old city charter We're unable 70
provide for the payment Of certain
debts which the city has owed for a
long term Of years. Take for IN
stance, one debt OF S17,566.60 which
was a bonded Indebtedness, carrying;
8 per cent interest, which has been
running for inc past tWenty-seven
years. This debt is due in the year
1915 and the holders OF those bonds
want their money and will insist on
having it. 1t will be impossible 70
place that amount of bonds again at
per cent and the city commissioners
have been compelled to- take some
steps to take care of that obligation
when 1t becomes due. We will De
compelled to raise $4,000 a year for a
period of three years in order to
meet that obligation. The city ran
behind $13, 10000 the last year of the
old city charter and that had to be
taken care Of. The new administra.
tion yhas also paid $4,000 towards the
drainage canal. We have also set
aside $4,000 for paving the intersec-
.tions Of the streets. We have also
repaired the city hall and painted the
same, which has never been repaired
nor painted since the structure was
built some twenty-five years ago.
Then there is another thing which a
great many people don't stop to cor
slider and that is that the expense Of
maintaining the city schools alone is
far greater than conducting all of the
other city affairs. combined Another
thing that made taxes high is the fact
that the county has asked for more
money, it's poor fund being almost
exhausted last year. 1t is true we
have purchased a new fire team and
fire apparatus. consider tf|s abso-
lutely necessary as a bad fire would
cause many thousands of dollars in
loss of property if the department
was not able and equipped to subdue

city for work on the streets thus say
ing the city the expense of hiring i

Ia short time. Yes, taxes are higher
and they will continue to be higher

some of its old debts. | do not blanc

Building - Additional Indictment,
Against Men Accused Of Ant. Crock
Riots.

Council Bluffs. Sept. 15.--Warren T..
Cottrell, former general secretary of
the local Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation. will not be required to stand
trial in the district court on the GRIM
inal charge OF having made five sue
.ossive attempts to destroy by fire the
$1O0.0O0 association building that had
been confided to his care.
The grand jury yesterday reached
the conclusion that the evidence indi-
Gated insanity for the reason that
there appeared to be an absolute lack
OF sane motive. With this view in
mind the grand jurors concluded that
1t would be waste of money to at
tempt to secure conviction, where
the Official record declaring him insane
would be confronted at the trial.
County Attorney Capell had no
criticism Of the grand jury to offer,
but expressed his conviction that the
jurors should not have assumed the
responsibility Of passing upon the
question of Cottrelrs insanity. That, he
said. was for the trial jury and the
court. 1t was the function Of the grand
jury to pass upon the question Of fact
connecting Cottrell with the origin of
the many fires, which damaged the
building to the extent OF more than
$1,000 and frequently placed in
jeopardy the lives Of a score or more
