for.

Raymond Lundeen, Twenty
eighth avenue and Third street,
East Moline, was badly cut about
the face and body Saturday when
his automobile turned over in a
ditch on the hard road between Sill
Wis and Carbon Cliff after being hit
by another machine said to be
owned By Fred Cook and driven by
Roscoe Bowers. Both machines
were practically demolished.
Lundeen declares that Bowers
was intoxicated to the extent that
he was unable to steer steady
course. The collision occurred at
the curve at the end of the Silvis
street car line. Lundeen, it is said,
was driving towards Silvis and
Bowers was going in the other d.
rectipn. Lundeen states that he at
tempted to avoid the crash by driv-
ing his car off the concrete.
Bowers, he says, drove right at him,
forcing the Lundeen machine off
the thoroughfare and into the ditch.

CITY COUNCIL ACCEPTS
I HEATING COMPANY REPORT

4 nr 80
At special meeting held Thursday
evening the city council accepted the
report Of the heating company, which
was remarkable for its financial sue
cess and shows that the indebtedness
will likely be entirely wiped out in
another year and the city have a
revenue producer that it had not
figured on at the time Of the installa-
ton. The business houses heated by
the system extend for four blocks along
each side Of Minnesota street. The
total cost Of the heating plant was
4O,699.29 and the total cravings for
1921 were $11,806.13
Some citizens appearing at the met
ing in regard to the proposed assess
ment for storm sewers and watermains
appeared to be very much in favor Of
Uhe proposition; in fact no one appeared
against the proposed improvements
These matters will come up for con.
sideration again at the regular meeting

COUNTY BOARD PROCEEDINGS

The County Commissioners of Brown
County met May 29 at two o'clock
in the Court House. The supervisors
of the township of North Star pre-
sented an application asking for an
appropriation of $25OO to aid in the
graveling and grading Of seven and
a quarter miles of road. The board
granted the request Of the supervisors
and appointed commissioners Johnson
and Sperl to act as committee in let
ting the contract for this work.
The matter Of the appointment OF a
weed inspector was brought up, ac-
cording to the laws of 1921 which
makes it compulsory for each county
to appoint weed inspectors. H. F.
Dohrman and John A. Sellner were
appointed in accordance with the pro-
visions of the law and their term OF
office began June 1 and terminates
Nov. 1, 1922.
The law allows forty cents per hour
for actual work and ten cents per mile
for actual travel and the county board
reserves the right to remove and di :
charge the local inspectors. The in
spector's districts were divided into
the North and the South half of the
county.
1t was decided to. advertise for bids
for taking down and marking all the
steel of the old Iberia bridge, the bids
to be in on or before July 10, 1922
