TREND TO ECONOMY.
A measure towards economy and a
slight reduction in the costs Of paw
ing was adopted by the commission
yesterday when Commissioner NJ. T.
Rudgren presented a resolution call
ing upon the city engineer TO include
IN his estimates as a separate figure,
the amount of money that il to be
paid to the commissioner on improve
ment--that is the man who the law
regards as the one who makes out the
assessment roll FOR some years past
the entire work of preparing the as
sessment rolls has devolved on City
Engineer Wallace Treichler while the
commissioners have had nothing to do
beyond signing their names and post
ing several notices. For this they
have received from $40 to $3.50 or even
more, according to the size Of the con-
tract on which they are commission
er. Their fee has always been includ-
ed under the heading court costs"
and because there was no way OF tell
ing Just what the commissioners were
TO receive, Commissioners Rudgren
and Reynolds voted against the ap-
prevail of the engineers estimates on
several Jobs which came before the
council yesterday. They were not op-
posed to the improvements, but were
unwilling to accept the estimates
without the commissioners fees being
| clearly stated.
In the future, the amount Of money
to be paid the commissioner win be
designated.

/ A tenant of the building on Twenty
sixth street, formerly occupied by the
( Lincoln club, appeared before the
council and implored that body to
turn on the water there in order that
he may commence operations with his
