demand SEWERS
TWENTIETH
BEFORE PAVING
Owners Approve Brick Blocks, Bal
Want Sewer Rirst-foFfy.6rst
Street Job Passed.

Ten property holders on .Twenti-
eth street, between Seventh and
Ninth avenues appeared at the city
hall this morning in answer to
notices Of a hearing before the To-
cal board OF improvements rela-
tive to paving the street. The
hearing was set for Friday, accord
ing to a statement made last Satur-
day by City Engineer Wallace
Treichler.
However. the matter was taken
up and much was thrashed out to-
day.
City Engineer Treichler had pre-
pared specifications for paving the
street between Seventh and Ninth
avenues with asphaltic concrete at
an estimated cost Of $16,779.
However, nine out of the ten
property holders present favored
the laying of brick blocks. 1t was
contended that while brick paving
would -cest considerably more ii
would be best in the long run as it
was claimed that there would be
heavy traffic on the street.
In accordance with the wishes OF
the property owners the board
members instructed the city engi-
neer to prepare specifications for
brick ,/ving.
PHI Depends on Sewer.
However. the completion of the
project without opposition depends
on laying of sewer between
eighth and Ninth avenues. Several
property holders living in this
block said that they would not ap-
prove the paving project unless the
sewer is laid. They said that sew
er facilities are not adequate.
The board promised to take up
the matter and call hearing on
the sewer project within the next
two weeks.
Some difficulties, is was pointed
out, would be encountered in lay
ing the sewer as the district does
not allow for proper fall with
out taking special course to the
Twenty-iirst street sewer. The city
engineer was instructed to attempt
a solution of the problem. Anoth-
er feature in this situation is that
comparatively few of the property
owners would be benefited and nc
assessment could be placed against
properties already having adequate
sewer facilities.
Want Paving Extended.
The property owners not only
want brick paving instead o.
asphalt, but also want the paving
extended to Eleventh avenue.
However. it was claimed by boart
members that the original plan:
will be carried out first. Those
present who favored brick paving
were:- Frank Mixter, Phil Mitchell
William Sweeney, Elmer Stafford
Albert d. Huesing. J. A. Weishar
Mrs. Justina A. Arndt, Lawrenc,
G. Ross and a representative of the
Chris Schillinger estate. Mrs
Mary Chase favored asphaltic con
crete paving.
Those petitioning for the sewer
| improvement were: William Swee
ney, Elmer Stafford and Albert D
Huesing.
FOrty-first Street Approved.
! The board also approved the paw

ing Il Forty-iirst street. from Four
teenth to Eighteenth avenues, with
aspha1tic concrete at an estimated
cost Of 81, so. Il was the third
time that the project had been TAX
en- up. The first time, plans were
made for asphaltic concrete paw
ing. However, the property hold
ers desired brick and an ordinance
was passed and bids advertised for.
There were no bids rendered and
the ordinance was repealed. An
amendment was carried this morn
ing calling for asphaltic concrete
paving.
Dismiss Alley Project
On account OF strenuous objec-
ton from property holders the
board voted to dismiss the issue of
paving the alley between Fourth
[and Fifth avenues and Twentieth
and Twenty-first streets with
|asphaltic concrete.

Endorsement Of plans for the
erection Of the proposed new hotel
to be known Is the Fort Armstrong
was given BY the Rock Island Bus
mess Mems association in Its an
nual meeting 1t the Rock Island
club last night. A rising vote was

city, it must have the Fort Arm
strong" said Mr.. cleveland. I'VE
must secure it. il nothing more is
accomplished for the next five
years. 1t is absolutely needed il
this city is to compete with Daven-
port for conventions and the pat
rOnage of visitors and travelling
men. 1t would not serve to put the
other hotels out Of business.
Committee Busy.
Don't entertain the idea that the
committee which was appointed
last spring by the Chamber OF
Commerce to investigate the prop
osition has fallen down on the job
The fact is, it has delved into the
matter from every possible angle
first securing an option on the
property on the southeast corner OF
Nineteenth street and Third ave
nue.. The option is still held. and
the site is the only available one
in the city.
"The committee has determined
that it is impossible for Rock Is
land to have the new hotel unless
the people of Rock Island join in
building it. And 1t must be com.
munity hotel.
1.-The committee has mapped out
plan which it believes if followed
will prove the necessary impetus Il
provide Rock Island with one o.
the finest hotels in the middle west
| 1t believes that the backing Of the
business men must be secured. t
be followed by the formation OF {
corporation which will sell bonds
