Anti-Smoke Ordinance. City attorney William B. Hess, was instructed to draw up an ordinance providing for a penalty for factory owners who permit the stacks of their plants to smoke excessively. A discussion arose in the council Monday night as to the manner of defining what would be excessive 'smokiiTg, also in what manner the uso of smoke consumers could be required. Councilman Clizbe stated that in the city of Chicago, the ordinance provided that when the smoke issuing from a stack, could not be seen through, at a distance of three feet from the top of the stack then it was. declared a nuisance, and mahle the factory owner liable to a fine of fifty dollars. The use of smoke consumers by factory operators can be made optional with the factory operators, the only rccpiiremcnt being that they do not violate the antismoke ordinace.

The ordinance is as the result of petitions signal by residents of the city, who live in the vicinity of factories and other plants burning soft coal who have complained to the council that the soot from such smoke is offensive and a great nuisance in many respects. Installation of Water Meters. The chairman of the water works committee, A. R. Clizbe, reported that, the water works plant had been connected to the electric light plant, and was being operated almost entirely by steam from that source. The committee is getting anxious about the installation1 of water meters throughout the city, which they say must be completed by June 15th, or before water is turned cm from the new tank, when it is completed. It sterns that it is imiossible to obtain plumbers in the city to do the work, because of the activity of the season. The council will take steps toward the securing of plumbers to execute Hue work. C. O. Yarrick has be secured to work oin the instal lation of meters, beginning next Monday. Additional! workmen are needed to complete the work in time. To Watch Library Moves. A short discussion of the library movement in the city was indulged in by the council, and the finances of the same considered. It was voted that the city attorney be instructed to watch chselv tiie movements of the library movement and see that the law is complied with in every re spect. Repair iof Bridges. Street Commissioner Robert Head, was instructed to purchase necessary planking for the repair of the floors of the river bridges. The council is considering the painting öf the three iron bridges in the city. A bid was received from Frank McGuire to do the work of scraping and painting for the sum of .$17.".00. The council passed the bill on file, and in discussion deemed it advisahle to repaint the bridges under the supervision of the 'street commissioner and not let the contract by the job. This, because of the fact that upon the proper scraping of the iron removing old paint would depend the lasting quality of the new paint. Councilman Bowell raised the cpiestion whether or not, repair work could be let by the council

U Of Cour a , WS x with caJling for sealed "bids. City Attorney Hess opinioned that the contracts for repair work could be dome, cither with or without bids, by the council. "New work however," sard he, can only be legally let upon, the receiving of sealed bids." Bowell stated that several citizttis tel spoken to him alout tlve matter, seeming to be of tlvej opinion that all public repair work could only be let by calling foT compeditive. bids. ;. Miscellenous Business. A petition to extend the Walnut Street sewer to the north city limits was presented signed by Himer, Werntz, J. K. Whitesell, C Holloway, I. V. Campbell and Haag. Petition was referred to committee on sewers and drains. The petition would necessitate the extcntion of the sewer one block north from its present terminaion to the Novelty plant: Glen O." Sherer was igiven permission to use north Midhigan street and Scuddcr Ave. to move a story and half house. In his regular report, the street commissioner stated that the new dump cart, recently purchased by the city was doing good work. The new wagon hauls 18 loads of dirt, while a common wagon hauls 14 and does not require the assistance of an additional laborer to dump the wagon. The city marshal reported that the citizens have been slow m complying with the order of the mayor to clean up, and that the matter had been trJcen up with the city board of health, which had issued an ordr, settirtg a final day for cleanfing up in the city of Plymouth. This date lias been set for Monday, May 2nd. The marshall further reported that the bad walks in the city, remained in a dangerous condition. The walks in front of the Morris row on JefTeron street, were particularly dangerous. Councilman Clizbe stated that hrs committee was waiting for the weather to moderate, before ordering the cotrtst ruction of new walks. Councilman Bergmatn of the drains committee stated that' an invctstigation of the ditch in Bollman's addition had been investigated, and recommended the laying of a tile drain. The township trustee promised to furnish tile for the ditch1, if the city would lay the 'same. Matter was continued. Upon the recommendation of Bergman, the council voted to by a tile drain on the Kline lot in south Plymouth to takci care of water emptied on the lot from Walnut and Plum streets. The Ijond of the City Engineer Wm. Ivnglish was approved by the council. The bond is in the sum of $200 and has for surety Wm. P.. Hess. Tiie city attorney was instructed to look up the ordinance regarding use of fire arms, etc, on the fourth of July, and advise the council regarding the same. Bills Allowed.
