Nothing further coming up the reg ular session made an adjournment to get ready for the fclg show. At the paving meeting Mr. Bruce, the engineer, was called upon by Mayor C. A. Johnson to offer a few George Conis wanted better streets and one that would not get your feet wet every time you tried to cross it.H C. H. Smith was not in favor or reducing the width of the sidewalks and was strong for the raised type of street that would do away with the continuous flow of water down the main street of the city at all times. F. A. Frlcke thought the sewer an absolute necessity 'but did not see the need of widening the streets any. J. II. McMaken, councilman-elect from the second ward, favored ample !0.00 2.41 3.35 J. N.

A. Swatek was in favor of the plans but did not favor widening the street. The resolution of necessity, un der which the meeting was called, "ml for this Dumose the motion car- tne street would be a slight crown rird that the lieht committee havelanfl at the intersections raised sur- street. ine gutters on either side of was rpari and srnve the estimated the street would extend out five feet cost of the sewer at $18,109.00.

To gather the water that might over flow at the outer sewers Mr. Bruce had prepared a series of intakes that would extend along Sixth street that should be able to take care of any possible flood water. This would give ine street carrying surface as an emergency in case of an unusual storm or cloudburst. In response to an inquiry by Mr. H. A. Schneider relative to the widening of the street, Mr. Bruce stated that he had not figured on that out if such was done It would "give an additional area of drainage of ten feet or more. Person ally, he did not think the widening of the street would justify the ex pense that it would cause to the property owners. C. C. Wescott was in favor of the fewer and was also pleased to know that the street would have additional carrying capacity. E. J. Weyrieh was called upon and stated thM he had looked over -the plans and that as Mr. Bruc had very carefully arranged -to give as much carrying capacity to the street as possible he saw no reason why the matter should not go through as pro posed. He did not favor widening the street. E. J. RicheV, one of the heavy property owners' of the city, stated that he had never looked over the plans and specifications but that as Mr. Bruce was qualified to pass on the matter and it was up to the council to go ahead and see that the work was done. Carl Kunsman was not in favor of widening the street and was glad that the carrying capacity of the street had not been impaired. William J. Streight was of the opinion that the gas and water com panies should be compelled to leave the street alone if it was repaved and not be allowed to dig it up at will as this had been one of the chief causes of the street oeing in its pres ent condition. John Corv thouzht that the prop erty owner should be considered and that he thought the matter should be laid over 'for another year as it would work a great hardship on l- -A .

' - . fited by the drainage of the sewers and on a forty-four foot lot the blanket assessement in the district would only be $4.80, alth if the council saw fit they could assess the amount of cost as per the improve ment received by the property. Councilman Bestor stated (that he did not think the street needed wid ening and that under the general expression of the meeting he would move the adoption of the resolution for the construction of the two four foot eewers. On the second the coun cil passed the resolution and the sewer proposition is over.
