ASK MORE MONEY
WaterWOrks Firemen and Engi-
neers Seek Wage Hike.
Commissioner NeWIand PeeVed
Because of Petition.

The firemen and engineers at the
city waterworks have only a slight
chance for a salary raise for which
they petitioned the city commission
this morning.
The men at the water plant have
been circulating petitions among the
tax payers of the city asking that
raise of $40 per month be granted the
engineers and a salary hike of $50 be
given the firemen. This petition this
morning was presented to the city
commissioners and referred to Com
missioner Newland, of the water and
light department.
The three engineers and four fire
men" Newland said this afternoon,
took the matter up without consulting
nae. They circulated the petition on
their own hook and put it above my
head"
With Newland in this frame of mind
in regard to the petition very little
hope is left in the hearts of the seven
men at the water plant. To them hav-
ing the petitions referred to Newland
was the same as death knell to their
efforts.
Budget Made Up.
The present wage of the three en-
gineers at the waterworks is $50 per
month and of the three regular fire
men and one extra man. the salary is
fixed at $40. The petitions signed by
200 taxpayers asks that the salaries

the horse having been kicked by one
of the horses the night before. The
doctor took one of his instruments and

several teeth and loosening others.
The horse was sharp shod, but fortu-
nately the doctors face was not cut.
He was Immediately taken to Minot

his injuries. Doctor Christie was able
