All IIIIEST Illfi SESSION Gty Council Dwell Together in Harmony and Much Busi ness Transacted. From Tuesday'! Dally. The meeting of the city council last evening was an harmonious gather ing with all members present and Mayor Sattler and Clerk Elster sit ting on the lid. There was a great deal of work done and the council took decisive steps toward making good on its promise to make Platts mouth a bigger and better town. The vacancy occasioned by the resigna tion of Fred Rezner as councilman of the Fifth ward was filled by the appointment of William Shea, a well known citizen of that ward and an excellent gentleman. Mr. Shea will make good In the position and will give the people of his ward a first class administration. The appoint ment was entirely unsolicited by him and came as a surprise. There were several applicants for the place but Mayor Sattler consulted the wishes of the people of the ward as ex pressed to him and appointed Mr Shea. The minutes of the previous meet' tng and also the special meeting at which the remonstration against Mr Gerlng was had, were read and ap proved. Dr. Elster who as a city clerk has no equals, had failed to spread any remarks anent the dls turbance on the records and the coun cil kindly agreed to overlook the omission. This omission was very discouraging to ye reporter who had hoped to make a record as a god dess of peace and go thundering down the long vista of time with the olive branch firmly clasped In his small, sylph-like hand. A communication from Fire Chief Koubek and seventy-four others auk ed that hydrant be placed at the corner of Main and Spring streets and on motion went to the Are and water committee. A petition from Henry A. Schneld er, J. M. Leyda and many others was read, asking that some grading be done along the south half of. block 98 for a sidewalk. On motion the streets committee was empowered to take a peep at the matter and do whatever was necessary. Chief Amlck who has gotten tired of dodging automobiles and fighting his way to fame along the prim-rose path beset by malefactors, tendered his resignation to take effect at once or sooner and it was accepted with an alacrity which was surprising. The chief really has other business which he has to look after. The mayor did not nil the vacancy at this meeting, wanting time to select a good man for the job. City Attorney Ramsey had a com munication in which he Btated the title to the old Edgerton mill prop erty was In Alf. and Leona Edger ton name, minor heirs of the late Wm. Edgerton. Mr. Uwyer suggest . ed that the building stood partly In the street and he wanted the city attorney so told which was ordered. Dr. Elster, the city clerk, had him. some report at this meeting. The good doctor had collected during the month $G,084.75 which he had turned over to the treasurer. The, latter gentleman had a report also at hand which showed the city had the vast accumulation of 110,171.39 on hand which could be used in making Plattsmouth a larger and better town. The chief of the Are department, together with the several foremen of the hose companies, had a report on hand showing tho condition of the department equipment. Chairman Weber of the streets committee reported that .the special committee had visited the Burling ton shops and that the engineers of the road would be here Boon and make an estimate as to the cost of grading and changing Lincoln ave nue along the shop yards. He also wanted bids for making permanent crossing and walks asked for as ac cording to the specification of two years since. Councilman Dwyer wanted to know If the city had any specifications on file which the may or assured him It did. Chairman Neunian of the fire and water committee reported an esti mate which the committee had re ceived of the cost of installing a tap on Fifth street for the sprinkler. The estimate was rather vngue and Indefinite and looked to the council like the tall of llallcys comet, so they referred it hack for more light on tho subject. The estiniato fixed the cost at $3.n. Chairman Neunian also reported that he had taken tho committee and they had prowled through the alleys of the business center with tho re sult that they unearthed two gaso llne tanks. He believed in abating the tanks. On motion of Councilman Dwyer the city attorney and the fire and water committee were instructed to get together and draft an ordi nance to abolish such concerns and report same to the solons for pass age. Chairman Kurtz of the cemetery committee made a game fight for some Improvements at the cemetery and got what he wanted. He refer red to the deplorable condition of the streets In the cemetery and the necessity for paving them and asked that $300 be given the committee for work in that respect. Gophers were invading the cemetery and he wanted to get rid of them. Mr. Kurtz made a good talk for cemetery Im provement. He was ably supported by Mr. Will who wanted the streets In the cemetery macadamized and also wanted the gophers extermina ted. Mr. Neuman also took a strong stand In favor of the work. He also thought some $200 or $300 ought to be voted for the work. Mr Kurtz moved that $300 be appropriated and taken from the business tax fund to the cemetery fund to be used at the discretion of the committee. Coun cilman Dwyer raised a technical oh ection as to the legality of the trans fer, doubting the power of the coun cil to make It. After some argu ment the motion was withdrawn Dwyer made a fight on the appropria tion of $300 and wanted It cut down to $150. Neuman opposed cutting down the appropriation. He wanted enough money appropriated so that the work could be done well and in slsted that council do this. Mr. Kurtz made another and stronger talk for the appropriation and developed tal ent as an orator Dwyer Inquired what assurance the council had that the work would be permanent. He thought $150 would do as well as $300. On the vote the $300 appro priation prevailed by a vote of 7 to 2 and the work was ordered done Dwyer and Dovey voter nay, The finance committee reported claims as follows which were allow ed and warrants ordered drawn for them: , M.
