OUR SESSION
CIGI?LATIJRESPEI.n) SHORT
TD.IE IN DELIBERATION ON
BUSINESS OF CITY.
From Tuesday's Dailv.
The city council last evening held
a very short and snappy session with
all of the members on hand when 1
the gavel fell and the grind of city
business was socn disposed of by the
members.
One of the main matters of the eve
ning was tiie naming of a chief of
the fire department and for this po
sition the present chief. Dr. Oscar
Sandin. was named by the mayor
and confirmed. Mayor Schneider
stated that following the previous
meeting of the council when the
nr me of Dr. Sandin had been rejected
i y the council, he had laid the mat
ter before the members of the fire de
partment for their action, and having
no personal interest in the matter
bed offered to name the man the de
partment wanted. The firemen at
tr.tir last meeting had gone on record
favoring the naming of Dr. Sandin.
lie having been unanimously en
dorsed, and accordingly the mayor
presented his name to the council.
Cn the vote to confirm Iverson. Mc
Carthy. Ptacek, Lindeman, Mason,
Howe. Schulhof and Vroman voted
to confirm: Brittain no. and Maurer
passed.
Mayor Schneider informed the
council that he had taken the matter
of bridges in the city up with the
board of county commissioners who
had been very obliging in the matter
I'nd had made a personal inspection
f the old bridge on Maiden Lane,
the one near the second ward school
and the one at 17tb and Oak street.
The commissioners had found that
they could repair the bridge at Maid
en Lane by making an extension of
the bridge for some distance and also
r.t 17th and Oak street the bridge
could be repaired. The bridge near
the school house the commissioners
had agreed to replace with either a
wooden bridge or a concrete culvert.
On motion cf Councilman Ptacek it
was decided to ask the commissioners
to put in the wooden bridge near the
school rather than the concrete cul
vert. On motion of the finance commit
tee the sum of $700 was ordered
transfered from the fire department
to the fire equipment fund to cover
this amount that had been taken
through error from the fire equipment
fund.
The lighting company came in for
their share of attention from the
council when the monthly bill of the
eompany for street lights was read
as Councilman Howe stated that there
was a small difference between the
amount the light company had de
ducted for lights that were out of
commission and the amount that the
committee had figured the city was
entitled to and the committee had the
bill turned back to them for investi
gation. On the suggestion of Chair
man Schulhof of the finance commit
tee of the council the light bills
will hereafter go to the lighting
committee to investigate before they
are taken up with the finance com
mittee. Chairman Iverson of the
light committee reported that the
lights ordered installed several
months ago were not in yet and it
had been claimed that there was a
shortage of material to carry on the
work. Councilman Howe stated that
he had inquired of the lighting com
pany as to the costs of operation cf
their plant for the last month and
had been informed that to secure a
detailed report it would be necessary
to get a report from the main office in
Omaha, but the local management
had given him a rough estimate of
the result of the business which had
showed $300 surplus for the month
from the electric service and $100
from the gas, but the manager stated
that it would be impossible to reduce
the rates as the company had a large
amount of indebtedness that must bo
cared for before the rates could be
brought down to a lower figure.
Chief of Police Manspeaker report
ed eight arrests for the month of
January which report was turned ov
er to the police committee.
Judge Archer had been busy dur
ing the month just closed as his re
port showed $17 collected from two
arrests that had come before him for
judgment during the month.
City Clerk McElwain reported that
for the month he had collected the
sum of $301.27 which had been turn
ed over to the city strong box for safe
keeping.
