Last Wednesday a ceiled meeting of
the city council waa made, all membsrs
betsg present
The subject of unusual interest was
the ordinance in regard to P and M
streets, the objective point being the
pnssage of the same notwithstanding
the veto of Mayor Held.
After the reading of the call for the
special mssring, aad the readiag of the
veto, Couaeihnan Lehman moved that
the veto be passed not withetsadiag the
mayor's veto. This waa seconded by
Conncilmaa Latx.
Pending this, the Mayor said he
should take the privilege of calling upon
membsrs of the council and upon oiti
seaa for their views.
Latx said there had been talk enough.
The ordinance had been carried by a
vote of five to one.
Nrnwohner said that the Railroad com
pany would not consent to the opening
of M street, bat did of P street
Elliott didat care to discuss the ques
tion. Would vote aa before.
Lehman- said the ordinanoe would
leave M street just se it waa before the
ordinanoe passed. If the city opened
up that street to travel, the city would
have to pay damsgea to the railroad
company. He said he helped fight a
railroad company once, this same one,
the Union Pacific, and recounted what
they did to the town, and stated that
he didn't care about going through a
like experience. We have a right to be
the third town in the state, and by
working together with the railroad can
mate something of ourselves. In ask
ing for M street they just ask for a
street they already had. He went on to
explain how be and Mr. Elliott had
said they would not vote for the ordi
nance if any damages were required to
be paid by the city. He said he had
been here thirty five years, and that
street hsd always been closed, never
been opened, and now he could not see,
sincerely and conscientiously, that to
open it without large damages to the
railroad would be doing the company a
very grave injury, without benefiting
the city. The railroad, he thonght, was
lsboriog under greater necessity to
keep it closed than the city was to have
it opened. Never any business trans
action of his- life had given him more
concern than this, and if he was making
a mistake it was because he didn't know
any better. He then referred to a mat
ter that has seldom been brought into
the discussion. "One business man on
Eleventh street had asked a traveling
man where he had his samples, and
when answered at the Thurston (Leh
man's hotelX told him it was no use to
open his trunks, he would not buy any
thing as long he stopped there." Mr.
Lehman said that this seme man had
never spent n whole dollar's worth at
his place, while he Lehman has bought
a good many dollars' worth of him.
Clinton C. Gray, councilman from the
Third ward, said be had no property
interests that were involved in this
matter, and believed he had been look
ing at it in an unbiased, unselfish way,
and in the interests of the whole com
munity. By an arrangement in 1877,
the passenger and freight depot were
located where the freight depot now is;
some years sgo the passenger depot wss
changed to its present location, and
now it is proposed to place the freight
depot on M street, relieving one street
and obstructing another. Every once
in a while, are we to have another block
set apart for depot purposes, and this by
eity council at the instance of the rail
road company? Is this fair and square?
He thought all auch matters should be
settled on n just basis, independent of
the dictation of corporations. In all
probability this ordinance will be pas
sed, but he thought every one would re
gret the day. There had been talk of
strife, but it is not the citizens that are
making strife it is the council.
Phillipps wished to state that when
the ordinance oame up he voted for it
but that he had changed his mind, con
sidering it his duty to vote aa the people
of the First ward wished. He would
rather have had a vote of the people to
settle the nutter.
Mr. Whitmoyer said that so far as this
ordinance was concerned, M street is
just exsctly as it was. It fixes and
places the street the same as it is and
has been. No man dare say that that
street was ever opened.
8ome comparison was then made be
tween P and M street No one can say
why P street should not be opened. M
street hasn't a single house on it except
on Uth street Mr. Whitmoyer depre
cated as a disgrace to the city, the strife,
the talk aa one citizen should never talk
against another, stepping over the
bounds of decency and propriety. Each
one is entitled to rights. The railroad
is a corporation, and it is entitled to
rights the same aa the individual is.
They have a right to locate their depot
wherever they choose, by paying dam
ages. You can study the question all
over, and yon will find it reduced to
that It ia all there ia in it Mr. Whit
moyer made a reference to men going to
market with a .hide and that it usually
had a brand upon it
Mr. Post in response to the call of the
mayor for remarks, thought it would be
an impertinence on the part of the citi
ixeas to instruct the council sa to their
duty. They are elected to leghuste for
the city. We are. not responsible for M
street being tied up with P street Here
we are without any fault of ours. If we
could have settled P street without any
reference to M street, we would have
done so. '
This ordinanoe does not take away
anything. The title of the Union Paci
fic is aa indefeasible sa the title to any
property can be. When Mr. Post said
M street had been specially earned by an
act of the legislature, Mr. Galley cor
rected him, saying, that the company
had been granted the right of way
through the corporate limit of the city,
but M street not particularly named,
any more than O or N, and besides that
the town waa here before the railroad
was thought of.
8. C. Gray thonght it wss best always
to find the objects of any new move
mentsthe dssigna in view. The or
chaance in question was proposed by
the railroad company, originated at their
instance, waa their measure, and not de
manded by the people of the city. The
railroad concluded they wanted n
change, and thia is the way they are
going at it He rsmembered once when
he happened to be n member of the eity
J eounefl, Mayer Sehnabech called en him
of work a switching ap
ian sssVwsJk east of the
depot They were told that
the proper piece for it snd sll that
"Well, he said, "if you had hud np
aights to think out n ptaee that would
be saost dangerous to men, women and
children, yon couldn't have fonnd n
worse one." And they moved it, but if
no protest had bean made, it might have
stood three yeara instead of three weeks.
It is best alwaya to stand for your
rights, and dsmand them, whatever they
ssaybe. Mr. Gray spoke very decided
ly sgaiaeVplaoiBg a freight depot in the
middle of M attest, viewing it in all
lights aa opposed to the general wel
fare of the city, and vary particularly to
Eleventh street. It is not good policy
for n city couueflmsn to vote one asaa'a
property up aad another man's down.
Speaking of brands, there are two very
distinct ajadsoouosraed ia thia matter,
the brand of the railroad eorporatioe,
and the other the people of Colambua.
Mr. Galley said that Eleventh street
folks were not altogether the selfish
people they had been paiated. He re
ferred to the arrangentsnt of 1877, when
the paassnger aad freight depot waa
fixed on Petreet, and aaid the railroad
company were the first to violate the
arrangement They might have large
privileges, but certsialy oonld not go to
the extent of putting their freight depot
on wheels and moving it around, at will,
io lae aeinment or property owners.
In contending for open streets in the
business heart of the city, we are askiag
only that our interests be not iajured;
and that a freight depot placed on M
street would greatly injure ne there is
no question whatever. It ia altogether
a one-aided affair, with nothing favora
ble to the interests of Eleventh street
or the city at large.
Mr. Tomlin spoke sgainst street ob
struction in general, and couldn't see
whst right the council had to give away
the streets to corporations. A freight
depot with its continual switching of
engines and cars, its shoving and shunt
ing is an infernal nuisance, and more
especially so in the heart of the city.
William Bucher spoke for opening
both M and P streets.
Mr. Glnok asked the council to guard
the interests of the citizens of Colum
bus instead of that of corporations.
Don't blockade the travel and traffic of
the city. The streets are for the benefit
of the public, and let them so remain.
Niewohner called attention to the fact
that the company had promised to do
most of their switching on the new lines
outside the city.
Mr. Eueden said that all such state
ments were answered by observation.
What had been would be again. When
you allow a freight depot located on M
street you are doing' wrong sure. Men,
act reasonable! Act right! Be neigh
borly! Have peace with peace.
Mr. Tomlin reiterated that a freight
depot was an infernal nuisance, making
all the crossings dangerous to life.
Mr. 8. C. Gray spoke about the ten
dency of even passenger depots in large
cities ia to get away from the heart of
business into the suburbs, and the pro
posed action here is a crushing blow to
the business of the city.
Those voting sye were: Elliott, Leh
man, Lutz, Niewohner 4; No, Gray
and Phillipps.
There is n monthly msgaaiae pub
lished at New York City, and Washing
ton, D. G, called United States Health
Reports, giving special attention to
pure-food products. Among things
lately appearing was the snalysis of n
specimen of J. H. Kerseobrook's beer as
made by him, at his establishment in
this city. The analysis was not under
taken as a matter of business on Mr.
Kersenbrock's part, but as'a matter of
curiosity to know whst wss being used
ss one of the chief beverages of the land,
for doubtless we all agree that if beer is
to be used, it should be pure. The pro
duct is set down ss absolutely devoid of
the slightest trace of adulteration; com
posed of the best of malt and the
choicest of hops; tonic qualities of the
highest; thoroughly first class, made
from the best materials, and manufac
tured under the newest approved me
thods, snd sanitary process."
JouBNALjresders are not generally
aware perhaps that on January 12, 1900,
at a meeting of the city council, Coun
cilmen Dussell, Glesson, Gray and Lutz
being present, Councilman Glesson pre
sented the following resolution:
"Whereas, it has been made to appear
to the mayor and council of the city of
Columbus, that all residence and other
property in the immediate vicinity of
the U. P. freight depot building has and
will continue to suffer greet deprecia
tion in value' by reason of the condition
and location of said depot and
Whereas, it would be to the material
interest and benefit of said city and to
the property owners snd business men
doing business on Nebraska avenue to
have said street opened and improved
from the south aide of Twelfth street to
the north side of Eleventh street there
fore be it
Resolved, By the mayor and council
of the city of Columbus, tbst the Union
Pacific railroad company be and are
hereby most respectfully requested to
take auch action as shall result in the
speedy removal of said building to the
end that aaid street msy be opened snd
improved for public travel thereon."
wnst Doay or citizens oa m or
Eleventh street petitioned for these
"benefits?"
