CITY COUNCIL HOLDS ITS
REGULAR WEEKLY MEETING
All were present when Mayor
Moller called the council meeting to
order last night with the exception
of Alderman Rose, who however ar
rived later in the evening.
The minutes of the preceding
meeting were apprpoved as read.
There were no communications ot
any kind.
Under the head of New Business
Mayor Moller stated that at a meet
ing of citizens held under the au
spices of the Chamber of Commerce,
the request had been made that the
city permit the erection of a cabi
net display of mineral resources ot
th^district. He therefore brought
the matter before the council. Coun
cilman Burgh moved that the Cham

her of Commerce be'permitted to
have a mineral display in the city
hall, provided that the erection ot
the cabinets entailed no cost upon
the city. This was seconded and
passed.
The Mayor said that some ques
tion had arisen as to the assessment
district of the city assessor, whether
same should be within the townsite
district or within the Noyes designa
tion of the corporate limits.
Councilman Burgh said that he
would like to hear from the City
Attorney on the matter. Thereupon
Attorney O'Neill entered into a long
discussion on the imperative nature

of the assessor’s duties in respect of
assessing all property within the
corporate limits. He explained that
it was not a matter over which the
council could exercise any control,
nor was it optional in any way upon
the assessor. He said that further
more failure to assess all property
within the corporate limits would
invalidate all the assessment roll,
and in this connection although the
city had sloughed off a portion of
the limits by ordinance in the mat
ter of the Sandspit, that was not
valid and could only be done by act
of Congress and the Sandspit would
have to be assessed. In view of the
lack of fire protection and so forth
he had recommended that the as
sessor make lower Sandspit assess
ments accordingly which he had
done.
Councilman Ross said that they
would have to build an oil room ad
dition outside the actual pumping
room in the basement of the new
building. Thereupon quite a dis
cussion followed as to whether this
could be done without authority
from the council, the Mayor stating
that it would have to be approved at
a public meeting of the council and
after the exact estimate had been
submitted. As the La France engine
had also to be placed in the pump
ing room upon resolution by Rose, it
was arranged to call a special meet
ing to consider the propriety of this
work on Wednesday night. It was
ordered that the Chief of Police ar
range with the U. S. Marshal for the
custody of municipal prisoners dur
ing the winter. The meeting then
adjourned until Wednesday night.
