sioner Lynch introducing this ordi
nance.
Commissioner Hassler introduced
the ordinance for placing the light
standards as petitioned by property
owners along Second street. Mem
bers of Council intimated that the

i cause of lack of fund to provide for
it.

vote. Other action by Council in
cluded the permanent appointment

passed recently directing this work
to be done limited the price for pav
ing to $2 a square yard, while tlio
present ordinance fixes no limit.
Commissioner Lynch explained that
it is impossible to get bids that low
for the work, but if those received
later are too high the paving will
be delayed a short time.

sessments of their properties as fur
nished in valuations given by T.
Ellsworth Davies, mining engineer.
Appeals from these assessments will
