THOMAS ENDORSED
THE REPUBLICAN COUNCIL EN-
DORSES ALL STILWELL'S
APPOINTMENTS LAST
NIQHT.
Funny Meeting of the City Council-
Considerable Fun—Com
mittees, Etc.
The nisi in excitement at the council last night centered ab nit the appointment of men in the employ of the city. Very little interest was manifested in the business, as all were waiting for the coup de etat.
O. H. Jones was granted permission to construct a cement walk in front of his property on Pike street.
W. M. Reeves was granted permission to remove the old Gerard house from east Main Street to Chestnut street, he filing bond for damages should any occur.
Petitions in reference to an electric light on Seminary street referred. Board of Public Improvement reported street cleaning going on, and recommended that the sidewalk in front of Steele's drug store be repaired or made new. Clerk ordered to notify the owner.
Binford called attention to an alley on west Main and the Washington street pump which needed attention, and Davis to the alley by the Journal building being in a filthy condition, and Mr. Smith said the city did not clean alleys. This provoked much comment and eloquence and ended in the order to clean the alley at the expense of the property owners.
Dr. Taylor reported several mild cases of measles, with (two cases of smallpox symptoms, and suggested that the Mayor issue a proclamation calling attention to the danger and appointing a committee of safety to co-operate with the Board of Health. The alleys in the central portion of the city should be looked upon as thoroughfares and kept clean and lighted by electricity, and a severe punishment should be exacted for defiling them.
Dr. Taylor's suggestion was acted upon and the Mayor instructed to appoint a committee of three physicians to act with Board of Health.
An ordinance amending an ordinance licensing certain business was passed. It fixes the retail liquor license at $250 per annum, payable semi-annually, license to issue for six months at a time. Binford, Nolan and Morgan voting against it.
Committee was granted further time on remonstrance to Market street improvement, and Clerk ordered to return bids.
Committee on Public Buildings reported that a second story on rear of city building was not advisable. Door will be put in the engine house this week.
Mr. Morgan reported that the Finance Committee while it did not feel that it was strictly proper, yet as the gentleman has spent all his time on the streets, they would follow a precedent set in the case of the Engineer, and not grant the $150 extra pay asked, but $100. Mr. Davis asked for a continuance of two weeks, but
Many men and women are almost .'•within the deadly grasp of consumption. ••Although its fatal_ hand is unseen, its is made known by unmistakable symptoms. Caa leads to consumption.
A stubborn
cough, sore throat, pains in the chest, bronchitis, bleeding at the lungs, loss of flesh and general weakness are warnings that this relentless disease is about to gather in a victim.
A remedy for all the diseases which, if neglected or badly treated, lead up to consumption, is found in
DrPierces GoIdenMedical Discovery.
It builds up the'weak places and fortifies the system against the onslaughts of disease. It helps the appetite, assists digestion, is an aid to the proper assimilation of food, and cleanses the blood of all its impurities. It is a strictly temperance medicine, containing not an •torn of whisky or alcohol in any form. ".Your medicine the best I have ever taken," %*nte* Mrs. Jennie Dingnxan, of Vanburen, Kal-
Co., Mich. "Laat spring I had a bad ?°u8j got BO bad I had to be in bed all the time, fisjjy husband thought I had consumption. He
Ranted me to get a doctor, but I tola him if it was cotunmpUoto the* could not help me. We Wrought we would try Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and before I had t^ken one bottle the cough stopped and I have since bad no signs its returning."
For tiie most obstinate forms of con-
a?d
biliousness, use Dr. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets. Their action is prompt ^et comfortable their effect is peitnanent.' Iodk that the druggist does not give yon something else.
the motion failed for a second. Mr. Binford moved to concur in the report and pay Mr. Smith $100. The motion carHed, Mr. Davis voting no.
Mr. JlcClure, the Clerk, then registered a kick. He wanted to know who was to issue the warrant, what fund to charge it to, and who would be responsible under the law.
The City Attorney when appealed to decided that the action of the council was warrant and protection to both Clerk and Treasurer.
Mr. Davis insisted that the matter lay over and
eT
bill be filed in the
legal way, giving the taxpayers a chance to object if they desired. The attorney thought the claim was not strictly a legal one, or intimated as much.
Mr. Davis declared himself opposed to voting out the people's money promiscuously. There was quite a war of words and the Mayor's gavel came down hard.
Mr. Abraham presented a proposition from the natural gas company to furnish the city gas at $270 per month until October. Mr. Davis said the old contract was for $200 the year round, and why the additional $70. Of course the company had a monopoly on gas.
Mr. Smith moved that the committee be empowered to investigate* and contract.
Mr. Davis opposed the contracting part and it was finally decided to investigate and let the Mayor call a meeting for their report.
Mr. McAlevy stated that the company wad now pumping gas. If they got this contract they would continue, if not pumping would cease. It was important that the city decide at once.
The city attorney was authorized to compromise the Vancleave damage case against the city, and not appeal it as ordered.
A law book on Municipal Securities was ordered sent back to the publishers.
The reports of the city clerk, treasurer and fire department will be published in our next issue as we are short on space this morning, and the itemized statements are long.
Voris & Cox stated that they had $25,000 worth of goods stored at the old wire fence plant, and asked for fire protection for which they were willing to pay. Temporary protection was granted on these terms.
The marshal was ordered to clear Green street hindrances to the free passage of the fire company.
Morgan made an apology to the Clerk for words spoken at a previous meeting but wanted no record made of it.
The bond of J. M.Waugh for $2,000 was approved, for the constructions of sidewalks on contract transferred to him by L. F. Purdue.
The clerk was ordered to issue a warrant to the school trustees for $600 collection on library tax. This was the signal for another controversy over the legal method of getting out the money.
The long looked for moment came when Binford arose and unrolled package of papers which up to this point he had carefully concealed in his left breast pocket. If it had been a stick of deadly dynamite it would not have shaken the walls of the Republican's castle harder, than it did. It was a resolution naming the standing committees and the employees of the city for the ensuing year, and authorizing the clerk to cast the ballot of the council for them., The committees are as follows:
Board of Public Improvement— Smith, Nolan, Binford. Board of Health—Morgan, Davis, Smith, Thompson.
Police Board—Nolan, Binford, Smith. Ordnances Naylor, Thompson, Davis.
Petitions—Hutton, Morgan, Naylor. Schools and Public Buildings— Thompson, Binford, Hutton.
Fire Department—Naylor, Nolan, Smith. Printing and Stationery—Binford, Nolan, Thompson. ,v
Finances—Morgan, Smith, Naylor. Judiciary—Morgan, Davis, Naylor. Natural Gas—Davis, Thompson, Hutton.
Water Works—Nolan, Binford, Hutton. Electric Light—Binford, Nolan, Morgan. ,,
ELECTRIC LIGHT.
Frank Abraham, superintendent,$60 per month L. W. Carr, chief line--man, $50{ Gregg Kelley, assistant lineman, $45 Ed Ames, chief engineer, $65? Frank Prewitt,assistant, $55 Newt Pearson, wiper, $45 Flur O'Neal, fireman, $45 Will Scott, trimmer, -$55.
FIRE DEPARTMENT.
W. W. Vance, chief, $55 per month Geo. Fitchey, assistant,$50 Doc Griffin, driver, $50 Clarence Patton, John Hurley, Flute McGilliard, Frank Zellers, firemen, each $50 per month
POLICEMEN.
James McCoy Joseph McDaniel and Janey Flynn,each $45 per month Ab Jones watch at stone pile, $10 per week.
William Slattery, street commissioner, salary $10 per week. The Engineer, Attorney and Secretary of Board of Health being four year offices, were not changed.
On the vote on this resolution offered by Binford there was a unanimous vote, save Davis, who voted "no" on every proposition.
He then informed the council that he believed the body should vote by ballot. That he came there to vote for Republicans and the thing had been cut and dried, and he was allowed no opportunity tocarry out his desires. That for a year he had been abused and vilified because he had voted for some Democrats read out of his party. He wanted everybody to understand that he was now inside and the Republican members of the council were out. He had voted for one Democrat. "You fellows have voted for a dozen here to-night," and endorsed the very thing you condemned in me."
All the changes made, were the dropping of James Grimes from the fire department, Howard Dickerson from the police force, and Wm. VanSlyke from the electric light force.
RESER AND THE JOURNAL.
He
The REVIEW met Alva O. Reser, the other day. Reser was the official stenographer of the American Commission on the Alaskan boundary, and is official stenographer of the circuit court of Tippecanoe county, a bright young fellow who will some day make his mark high. After the greetings on first meeting he said: "What is the matter with your Journal editor? He seems to have it in for Tippecanoe county. He criticises our soldiers and our members of the Legislature. Is he a young man who uses little judgment, or is the editor a bilious gentleman who needs some liver medicine? He criticises the republicans of Tippecanoe county and our public men, and at the same time when a distinguished citizen of Montgomery county is nominated for the office of Governor, Tippecanoe county gives him afar larger republican majority than his own county of Montgomery. Tt used to be that Montgomery county had about the same republican majority as Tippecanoe county, and yet in the past ten years Tippecanoe county has more than doubled its republican majority, while Montgomery county elects democrats to office as much as republicans. I am inclined to think it may be due to the republican journalism that you have down in the Hoosier Athens. Tell the young man for me to come up and drink some of our artesian water, and thus improve his iiver, and then we will send him home in perfect health and with the hope that henceforth he will be ueignbor-
A Pleasant Dance.
,F -j
The young gentlemen who were recently entertained by the young ladies of the LaBelle Marie Club, returned the compliment last night by giving one of the most pleasant dances of the season at the Knights of St. John's hall. Maroni, the Indianapolis harpist, furnished the inspiration. During the evening punch was served in the hall and at the conclusion of the dance a delicious banquet was spread at the Bobbins.
Will Not Quit.
R. C. Smith desires that the statement be made that the report that he is going on the road is incorrect. Just now he is invoicing his stock, but expects to open up again as soon as the inyoice.is complete. fl.ii'.
Divorced.
A divorce has been granted to Anna Britton from Thomas Britton, and her maiden name of Anna Hampton stored.
IF
the
Does Not Think Much of
Crawfordsville Journal's
Course.
The Crawfordsville Journal seems to have "it in" for Lafayette and Tippecanoe county in genera!, and her militia company and a few of her politicians in particular. The dose given each week does not set well on some of the Republican politicians— most of them in fact. The Sunday Times goes after the paper in no uncertain mauner, and the politicians are exceedingly sore at the paper.
THE sewers of a dwelling are faulty, or get clogged, it soon becomes so foul that life is not safe in it. That is just what happens to you when the Liver or Kidneys fail in their work. The first little signs are backache, poor appetite, changes in urine and sometimes bowel troubles and dropsical swellings. Do not neglect any of these Deadly disorders may follow— STOP the mischief in time, use
