MORE STREET IMPROVEMENT
The Council Legislates for the
City's Thoroughfares
LABORED LONG AND HARD
Funds for the Fiesta Have Not Yet
Been Appropriated
The Crooks and Turns of a Street Sweeping
Contract—Many Ordinances
Passed
The Council labored loop and hard yes
terday, aud much work accomplished was
the result.
President Teed has returned from his
ocean voyage and was present to preside
over the Council in his usual able way.
AH the Councilmen were present and
business went along with a rush, there
being no matters up yesterday which
called for outside eloquence.
The Fiesta committee appropriation
matter was left in the hands of the
finance committee for another week.
Two demands from deputy boiler in
spectors for each were cut down to $3
each, th" ordinance reading that one
meeting per month shall be held, and
. that, the members of the board shall re
ceive ijtf each for each meeting. Et seems
that the board has held ten meetings
durir.;' January, instead of one. The
City Attorney was instructed to prepare
an amendment to the engineers' license
ordinance, so that those who fail to pass
the examination shall have the fee re
turned to them.
A bond presented for the approval of
the Council by W, I. Hollings worth, to se
cure the carrying out of the provisions of
the street sweeping contract, disclosed a
curious state of affairs, to say the least.
Some time near the close of lust year the
former Council let the contract for sweep
ing the paved streets of the city to 1.. F.
Hewlett of Oakland. Hewlett's hid was a
very low one, and several members of the
Council had misgivings at the time, be
lieving that the work could not be done
for the money. However, the contract
■ et to Hewlett, and at the time the
?il gave notice that it wot 1 I expect
i-ork to be done in strict accordance
h the provisions.
Hewlett never succeeded in satisfy
he Council that lie was doing good
He had tiled a satisfac tory bond,
tniug the names of very substantial
lis. The Council refused to allow
Hewlett's demands, and he threw up
ork. The Council held the bonds
•esponsible, and one of them, S. W\
cifer, attempted to take charge of
ork.
I the scraping was not satisfactory,
uitweiler then turned the work over
c Brothers, a contracting firm. Skie
ers attempted the work and then
the contract to W. I. Hollings
peculiar part of the matter as dis
yesterday was that Skie Brothers
appear upon the bond presented by
ollingsworth. Thus the contractors
r as sureties on what is considered
? Council as their own bond.
ti nance committee recommended
he bonds be not accepted, and the
:il took such action,
rtly before the conclusion of the
ng session City Engineer Coninton
red before tho Council to talk about
alary of his chief deputy. The
it holder of that position refuses to
t longer at the regular salary of $4.:)i>
y. Mr. Compton had asked that
l'arv be raised to $150 per mouth, the
ul nad referred the matter to the
c committee and the finance com
-1 had made no recommendation in
- I to the matter.
Compton does not believe that a
•tent engineer can he induced to ac- |
f.rxj per day. The Council listened
remarks but took no action and the I
r is still in the hands of the finance
ittee.
as the morning session was ready
■ closed, when everybody had grabbed
eir hats and the lobby was already
ig out the door, Mr. Snyder arose
dted for information. He'wanted to
if there was any way in which the
of the old court house property
be made to carry on the work of de
ling the building at a livelier pace,
he rate he is doing the work now we
ill be in our graves," he said, "be
le work is finished.
Kingery said that there was one
and only one thing, that is a justi
n of the slow pace. "If the work
nasit is now being done." said he.
ill afford us an opportunity for ten
■to come to take strangers down
and >bow thai new buildings are
up all the time.''
Savage explained that Mr. Bollard,
vner of the property, and another
iad been steadily at*work on the old
ng, tearing it down, and polishing
• tin roofing and brick, hut that the
jf second-hand tin and brick had
ed, and that the other man had
discharged, leaving the owner to
carry on the work alone. Hence it was
moving a tri He slow.
Snyder moved ih.it Mr. Bullard be given
fifteen riays's further time to finish the
task of removing the debris.
The Council adjourned to meet on i
Wednesday afternoon, when the bond J
election ordinance for the refunding of
bonds out&tandhig will be considered.

have been cared for, the petition says.
Many have been sent to their homes'in
the East and elsewhere ; others have been
married to the persons who led them
astray. Homes nave been secured for
more"than twenty babes, thereby lessen
ing the probability of their becoming
public charges.
In addition to the work of rescuing
girls, the home does its utmost to bring
perpetrators of evil to girls to justice. To
carry on the work last year $27ri0.27 was
expended, and for the present year a
much larger sum will be needed. The pe
tition was granted.
