New Station Soon

1t now looks as if Laclede is
to have a fine new depot before
the snow flies. The railroad
officials were here again Friday
with the blueprint and stakes
for grading and foundation were
set. A car of gravel, the first of
the material, has arrived.
1t will be larger than the old
one, burned last February and
will be located farther west, the
east end being back IS feet from
the north and south track.
1t is to be a frame but will be
modern with steam heat, electric
lights, tile floors, two waiting
rooms, large and convenient
Office rooms, with ample freight
and express room.
There are no station men
along the line that deserve better
accommodations than Agent
Moore and his force. The work
here is heavy in addition to the
transfer business and it will be
to the interest. of the company
to furnish them all the con-
veniences possible and at the
same time equip them to better
serve the public.

City Council Meeting

The regular monthly meet ing
of the city council was held Mon
day evening, all members being
present, Mayor Plowman presid-
ing. Regular monthly bills
were allowed, and report of
Manager Myers on opera house
for June and July was audited,
approved and placed on file.
City Clerk Calhoun reported
that all business houses, with
one exception, had paid their oc-
cupation tax, and he was in
structed to proceed to enforce
the ordinance against the de-
linquent one.
Marshal White made his re-
turns on poll tax collection ac-
companying it with a delin-
quent list of Is. The list was re-
turned to him with instructions
to start the legal machinery
necessary to clean the slate.
A petition with 35 names was
presented praying the board to
an oiling district in
cluding State street from the ].
W. Power residence south to
Cole steet and west on Cole to
the city cemetery, and on
Prairie street from Olive to Pine,
and on Worlow street from Olive
to Pine and on Vernon from
Olive to the railroad crossing
north of the depot site.
To establish an oiling district
The petition must contain the |
signatures of a majority of the |
owners of property abutting the |
streets to be oiled and that
would be liable to the special tax.
t was found that the petition
presented carried only "a legal
ignatures, not a majority, as
here are 66 property owners ef-
ected. The petition was re-
urened and one week given in
which to secure additional
Iames.
The board took a recess until
ext Monday night when the
ling proposition will again be
AIKEN up.

Road Meeting

An importantant road question
from this county is to be taken
up before the state highway
commission at Jefferson City
next Tuesday. It concerns the
location of the state roads
through this county and is of
vital concern to Laclede and the
farmers surrounding town.
To take whatever action may
be necessary a meeting will be
held at the Lomax & Standby
Bank this Friday evening at
800, and all who feel interested
in having the north and south
road come through Laclede
should be present at this meet
ing.
The interest Laclede manifests
is going to have something to
do with establishing this road
and it is therefore important
that we take definite action at
this time.

Residence Burned

Laclede's shortage of houses
was increased by one when the
Joe Duncan residence burned
yesterday morning. The alarm
was given shortly after two
o'clock, the people being aroused
by the whistling of a locomotive.
Those first to arrive say the fire
started on the lower floor in one
of the middle rooms. Many
believed the house was occupied
but it was learned the family
had moved to Brookfield two
weeks ago and a heating stove
and a few pieces of furniture
was all there was in the house.
The fire had gotten such a start
that no effort was made to save
the building.
There was no WIND aC the
time and the fire was kept from
spreading. The John Disney
residence just north of it was
pretty badly scorched but saved
by liberal use of water.
The Duncan family seem to
be very unfortunate with fire,
this being the third within a few
months.
In the early part of last
December a Ford car one
of the boys was driving burned
in the road southeast of town
and a few days later the Brown
hotel which the family had con-
1ucted for a year burned at
about the same hour in the
as yesterdays fire.
They had started to move from
The hotel to the residence when |
the hotel burned.
The house was insured for
g, 10000 and contents for S4O0. |
