NEWS FROM COUNCIL BLUFFS
Condition of Cedar Elok : Paving is Attract
ing Much Public Attention ,
SOMETHING MUST BE DONE TO SAVE IT
llcpulrs .Mndo So Far lliuo Arnllnd but
l.ltllo Suggested tlmt the Clty'a
Saiiilbiink ItuUicdln rilling the
Unsightly Holes.
Much dissatisfaction Is railed over the
condition of the streets paved with cedar
blocks. Many , Uch as Dryant , North Second
end nnd Pearl and some of the alleys , like
the one running past the city building from
Dryant to North Main , arc In such condi
tion ns to bo almost Impassable for teams.
Another year or two , at most , will finish
the work of destruction , and the streets will
have to be repavcd or become unfit for
travel. Ju < t what should be done Is a ques
tion that Is perplexing some of the olHclats
considerably. Much of this paving that Is
so badly worn has not yet been paid for ,
nnd the property owners might reasonably
bo expected to object strenuously to being
compelled to pay for two sets of paving at
the same time. In some cases the holes
have been stuffed up with brick , but this
lasts only a short time , and the second
state of that street Is worse than the first.
It Is suggested by some that the sand
bank , which lies north of the city and
which the city numbers among Its possea-
clond , might be used to good advantage In
patching the pavements. Much of this bank
is said to be gravel of the best ( itiallty , nnd
In * lieu oPany better paving nmtcr.nl the
streets could bo patched with It so as to
last a couple of years more at the expense
of merely hauling the gravel to the city and
paying the men to put It In place. It Is
very likely that unles- the council gets ac
tion BOOM and devises some way of dispos
ing of the difficulty the property owners w.ll
ralio such a roar that the city government
will be compelled to take the matter In hand.

cpiMir to tlin Council ll ! < ifT4iis Co nip my.
At a special meeting of the city council
last evening , nt which the mayor and all
the members of the council were present , the
matter of letting a contract for lighting the
city came up for consideration. The contract
with the Council Dluffs Gas and Electric
Light company expires next fall , and It will
bo remembered that an agitation was begun
several months ago for the purpose of driving
that company out of the field , or compelling
It. to reduce its tolls. It being claimed that
the latter were exorbitant. At that time a
special committee of the council was ap
pointed and Instructed to look Into the sub
ject.
ject.Aldenran
Aldenran Nicholson , chairman of the com
mittee , reported last evening that he had
heard from n light expert who wanted the
Job of making a survey of the city and drawIng -
Ing a diagram of the lights , to be used In pre
paring specifications. It might take him
three or four days , and he wanted the modest
little salary of ? 25 a day. Nicholson favored
Icttini : him have the Job , but Keller , Ulsh-
ton and some of the rest opposed It on the
ground that the city engineer could do the
work just as well without charging anything
for It. After a long discussion It was de
cided to add the city engineer and electrician
to the committee and let them make the
diagram.
Several contracts for public Improvements
were awarded. The city engineer reported
that J. M. Ilardln was the lowest bidder on
three and four-foot plank sidewalk , nnd he
was given the contract. The council got
Into a peck of trouble when the matter of
six-foot brick sldcualk came up. The two
lowest bidders wereJ. . M. Hardtn and a
man named Doln ) , whom nobody seemed to
know and who was represented by B. A.
Wlckham. Hardln's bid was 334 cents for
cosh and 34.49 cents for certificates , while
Dolln's read 37 for cash and 34 for certifi
cates. Wlckham , however , stated that Dollu's
bid was erroneous ; that the prices for cash
nnd certificates'should have been just re
versed. Ho was willing to let them stand ,
however , so that ho was the lowest bidder
on certificates. Then , as It was always In
order for the lowest bidder to underbid him
self , ho made a verbal agreement that he
would do the work for 33 cents cash , thus
underbidding Ilardln on both. This was a
kind of Echcmc that a previous council had
refused to allow , but after a long-winded
discussion. In which It was first decided to
reject all bids , and the decision Nvas after
wards reversed on. Wlckham's request , Dolln
was given the contract. A man named Con
nor was the lowest bidder on artificial stone
sidewalk , and was given the contract at $1.08
for certificates nnd $1.00 cash.
The contract for grading Frank street was
awarded to Isaac Doty. With regard to grad
ing Twelfth nnd Thirteenth avenues , the
city engineer btntcd that as the Chicago ,
DurlluKton & Qulncy Hallway company had
the exclusive franchise on those avenues he
was In some doubt as to whether the city
could order , them Oiled , and the matter was
laid over.
On motion of Alderman White , who Is also
proprietor of an express Hue , a resolution
was adopted providing that the customary
fco of $1.50 which Is commonly added to the
$10 license fee for express wagons for filing
of bonds and issuing certificates be done
away with.
The sum of $5,000 was ordered , transferred
from the sewer fund to the police fund , and
then the sum of $8,000 was taken from the
police fund to be used In. redeeming bonds.

John Deatty of Nevada , W. A. Delashmutt
of Mount Ayr and A. T. Fllcklnger of this
city have been In close communion for the
past two days with reference to the ex
penditure of the $11,000 appropriated for
the propo ed Improvements at the School
for the Deaf. These three gentlemen com
pose the board of trustees of the Institution.
The wind storm that visited the city during
the Grand Army encampment and blew
down the Manawa pavilion did a great deal
of damage nt the school , much more than
has ever before been made public , through
the great dread of Manager Rothert of seeIng -
Ing his name In print. Fully one-quarter of
the t n roof of the boy's building was torn
oft. Four chimneys on the main building
were blown down , and the heavy masonry
broke through the slate roof , rafters , and
all , snapping off a timber 12x4 Inches In
size , and depositing the dcbr.s on the floor
of the hospital room below. One chimney
on the Industrial school building was treated
llkew so , and all the slate roof was blown
off the chapel. The entire damage Is es
timated at $2,000 , which would make a
largo hole In the appropriation. The trus
tees accordingly decided to go to Des Molnea
on the 24th nnd see If some arrangements
could not be made whereby the repairs could
bo paid In some other way ,
Among the improvements contemplated ,
and upon which work Is to be commenced at
once , are a $2,000 cold storage warehouse ,
bakery , cooking school and gymnasium , the
latter three being In separate buildings and
to cost about $5,000. The school house Is
to be restated , the contract for the work
having been awarded to Senator Hlpwell of
Davenport. An appropriation of $1,000 Is
also on hand to enlarge the electric light
apparatus.

the owner of the property , and neither Mr.
Dentley nor myself have anything to do with
It Mr. Dentley , when he sold out to
me , claimed to have furniture on these
premises to the value of $1,000 , and upon
that assurance I paid him $350 , and agreed
to pay a further sum when a bill of sale
was produced. This has not been forth
coming , and I find ho has no Interest in
the furniture of the house. I not only
owe him nothing , but shall institute pro
ceedings to collect what has been paid al
ready under misrepresentations.
Thanking you In advance for giving this
