The town board, or rather city council pro tern, met on last Saturday evening at a special session to transact several matters pending for their consideration and to fix the date of the municipal election and outline the wards of the city. July 25 was agreed upon as the date of the election after considerable discussion, some wanting the time set at an earlier date. The only change made in the wards was the addition of the block of business houses on the south side of the square to the second ward, the south line of the second ward being exended south to the alley in the rear of these buildings instead of Jollet street. One or two votes are gained for the second ward by the change, and the third ward is now dry territory by the move, the only dry ward in the town. The plans and specifications for the water mains in Ridge and North streets were accepted and bids will be advertised for the same immediately.
