ing property owners were willing, however,
that Mr. Everett be permitted to move the
building, which he propose converting Into
a hotel, provided be would agree to veneer
it with brick. Mr. Everett protested
strongly against such requirement being
placed upon him, and In an Impassioned
speech accused member of the city coun
cil of venting their, personal spite against
him In this matter. He called attention to
the fact that another citizen bad been per
mltted to move a tram building within the
fire limits without any question, but when
it came to the matter of his moving such
a building "hit personal enemies in the
council worked off their private grudges
against him" by extending the Are limit
for the sole purpose of placing a stumbling
block in his way. A motion requiring Mr,
Everett to veneer the buldlng with brick
within thirty day after, its removal to
Twelfth street, as demanded by the adjoin
ing property owner, prevailed, but this ac.
tlon was later rescinded as the aldermen
failed to see how they could enforce It
after having previously given Mr. Everett
permission to move the building there with
out any condition attached.

such improvement. In their protest they
allege that the thoroughfare is a etate road
and was never dedicated or accepted as a
street and that their holdings are held for
agricultural purposes only and not subject
to municipal taxation and that same had
been so decided by the district court.
The ordinance providing for the change
of grade on Voorhls atreet was passed after

ing police station and fir house with coal
waa awarded to the Carbon Coal company
on It bid of Centervllle lump at $3.98 per
ton. This company now has the contract
for the city, county, school and federal
buildings.
Th request of Dr. H. I. Woodbury that
the paving assessment against his lot at the
I corner of Seventh street and First avenue
be reduced, led to a lengthy discussion and
om exceedingly pointed remark from Al
derman Casper, who opposed making any
deduction. The matter was finally laid over
to the next regular meeting.

company wa granted permission to con
tract a temporary bridge over Indian creek
immediately south of Ninth avenue, and

eral mile of new brick sidewalk wa In
troduced, but Alderman Casper opposed ac
tion oa it on the grounds that it wa too
lata to do any work this year and that con
tract for much of th kind of work were
till uncompleted. After much discussion
th consideration of the resolution wa de
ferred until the regular meeting In De
