D0|NCS Of THE CITY council
PARK FENCE ORDERED MOVED
TO SAVE PINES-BRIDGES TO
BE PAINTED

A regular adjourned meeting Of the
council was held at the city hall on
Monday evening, Aldermen Moeglein,
Blake, johnson, John and I4aFond be-
ing present. .s$s 4*51 s:'s' ~, n ,71f'
NJ. M. Williams appeared and called
the councils attention to matters per-
tanning to the park. He asked that
the west fence of the moose enclosure
be moved so as to bring number of
large pine trees on the outside of the
corral. The reason, he explained, was
that if the trees are left inside the
enclosure they will be killed. In the
course of his talk Mr.. Williams stated
that Little Falls is not doing one
fourth as much for it's park system as
other towns of its size and even small
er in this state. Upon motion by Al
derman John the Park committee was
instructed to have the fence moved
and also to have man clear out the
dead brush and stumps in the enclos-
ures.
The bond Of William Batters as city
weighmaster, was approved.
A report Of Municipal Judge Lyon
with receipt for $41 in fines, attach
ed, was read and ordered filed.

permit to repair the stairway at the
back of the building in which the
Union Provision company meat market
is located.
City Engineer Phil. s. Randall gave
a written report on the proposed paint
ing of the Broadway and north wagon
bridges. He said he had taken a
great deal Of time to investigate par
ticularly The different kinds of paint
and that he had come to the conclusion
that B. P. s. Nobrack bridge paint,
manufactured by the Patterson-Sar-
gent company, is the best, and recon-
mended it's use on the Broadway
bridge. For the north wagon bridge
he recommended the B. P. s red barn
paint. A representative of the Pat
terson- Sargent company was at the
meeting and he gave long talk de-
scribing the paint, its qualities, etc.
The estimate of Mr.. Randall for the
painting of the Broadway bridge was
$4S3.25, of which $4,000 was for
cleaning and scraping it, $4,000 for
labor for painting it two coats of
paint and $123.25 for the paint, being
for IS gallons at $1.45 ner gallon. For
the north bridge his estimate was
$4,000, of which 500 was for the
paint and the balance for cleaning
and scraping and painting it. The
council decided to buv the paint re-
commended by Mr.. Randall and the
clerk was instructed to advertise for
bids for the work.
