Special Meeting
Decided To Tear
Down City Dock
(Continued From Page One)
was to discuss the disposition of
the warehouse and dock. Coun
cilmen Rude and Polet of the
special committee to investigate
it, spoke in favor of tearing it
down immediately and the city
preserving the lumber etc., for
use by other city departments.
O'Connor was opposed to such
action suggesting that the matter
be laid on the table until the ar
rival of Colonel Wilds, when he
believed some inexpensive means
of arranging the matter might be
taken up with him, whereby the
city would not be put to the ex
pense of a costly hauling or tear
ing down job on a piece of city
property which, bears a certain
value to the city as a warehouse
for its equipment and storage of
supplies.
The mayor said he believed the
Colonel would back up the resi
dent U. S. Engineer in his de
mand that the warehouse be re
moved so that piling along the
revetment could be driven and
the big hole filled in with dirt, a
plan which, it was reported, has
been proposed for numerous
years past.
A motion was made by Polet,
seconded by Rude and passed 4
to 2 to tear the building down.
O’Connor and Hagen voted again
st the motion.
The same special committee
was directed to handle the mat
ter. However, Councilman O’
Connor said he wdshed to be ex
cused from the committee in
cluding Rude and Polet. because
he was entirely opposed to such
a proceedure. His request was
granted, and the meeting adjour
ned.
The matter did not seem to
have been talked out sufficiently
at the meeting because numerous
councilmen discussed it later, &
some city officials could not see
why the council could not have
awaited the arrival of Colonel
Wilds, with a possibility that he
might be able to arrange some
less destructive and inexpensive
plan of allowing the proposed
work at the harbor to proceed.
Others said that now that the
city has no warehouse of its own
to store supplies or equipment in,
it will be right up the council’s
“alley” to farm such articles out
and pay someone a good rent to

simply fall back on Smith or
Jones regardless of politics.
There will be plenty doing be
tween now and the first of Nov
ember. if one may judge by the
briskbats that both political par
ties have cast already, but the
| contest will lack the color that
characterized elections of a by
gone day. One does not have to
go further back than the Cleve
land-Harrison campaign of 1888
to reach a time when election
and the events that preceded it
had all the glory and excitement
of a cirus. The present genera
tion knows nothing of the blare
of the parade, the smell of the
oil torches, or the savor of the
roast ox at the barbecue. There
is no fun in a campaign nowa
days. All it amounts to is to press
one button to gtart the radio or
