The salaries fcy the ensuing year
of the various officers of the city
were recommended by a committee
TO be left as heretofore,
with the exception of one; but the
council thought different and left all
salaries the same as last year
A petition was introduced asking
that lower grades be added to the
Columbia school to make it more con-
venient for children residing nearby.
1t was referred TO the board of educa-
tion.
Herman Libman applied for a
license to operate saloon on FlrS
street, in the place whose occupant
had his license revoked recently.
Frank Zie.sdorf, chief of the fire
department, made his annual report.
He recommended that station No.
be discontinued and that the city
purchase a motor car for the hose
and for the chemical apparatus. He
claims that this win do away with
six horses and the maintaining of a
station and that more effective SER
vice can be rendered. He reported
that there were l13 alarms of fire in
1913: the total loss was S17, $50. .96,
which was insured for SIG, ,755 90. 66
of these calls were made by telephone
and the balance through our fire
alarm system.
There seems to be disposition to
add a motor car service to our fire de-
partment and as many of the smaller
cities about us are doing this it seems
as if Wausau should keep up with the
procession. BY keeping our depart
ment up to date, enough will be
saved at one fire during the year to
pay for such an outfit.
The matter of electiRg two alder
men at the city election, one to act
with the supervisors on the county
board, was explained by the mayor,
could not take effect at the coming
city election but that the question
would have to be voted upon and
could not go into effect for two years.
DIR. Sauerhering made report of
the conditions as shown by his de-
partment. Our city is to be congratu-
lated on being so free from contagious
diseases while there is so much sick
ness about us.
There were many petitions pre-
sented for lights, etc, and allowing
OF the usual batch of bills
