MEETING Of
CITY COUNCIL
LAST NIGHT
STRONGEST PETITION FOR Paw
ING EVER PRESENTED WAS
READ AT REGULAR MEETING
LAST NIGHT.

. At the regular meeting of the Board
of City Commissioners last night a
petition was presented by nearly all
the residents of A street, northwest,
asking that legal steps be taken for
the immediate paving of this street
Uncle George Henry Bruce, who
has been city clerk for fifteen years,
stated that in all that time no stronger
petition was ever filed with the city
authorities. The matter will be given
immediate attention.
The regular monthly bills against
thes city were audited and allowed.
II. f. Foster, manager of the Ard
more Ice, Light & Power company,
submitted plans that have been pre-
pared by the company for the in
stallaton of white way. The plans
were taken under advisement, but
they are of such nature that every
one who has been interviewed who
have seen them state that the city
is extremely fortunate in getting such
a favorable proposition submitted.
The plans call for the extension of the
white way along Main street as far
as Z street, beyond Central park.
From the Santa Fe on Broadway to c
street, near the site of the proposed
convention hall, and on Washington
street between Main and Broadway.
The Ice, Light & Power company pro-
poses to install this equipment at
its own expense. and the cost of this
lighting system will be approximately
800 per month more than it now
costs.
The property owners state as a
whole that this Is a very little addi-
tional tax for the service the COM
pany proposes to give. and as rule
are advocating the scheme The mat
ter will be presented to the people for
their approval at a special election
to be called soon.
The bids for erecting the new pump
ing plant at the city lake were sub
mitted. but owing to some legal mat
ters that have yet to be adjusted, no
action was taken.
