the costs connected therewith. Fryer
and that the whole affair would
function properly if rightly handled,
said that he was always willing and
ready any time called to make ad
justments and to keep the rig going
right. There was evidence to show
that the probable cause of frosting
and radiator fractures was a stop
page of drainage and the filling up
of the drains, or back flow, to the
radiators by the basement piping
freezing. This freezing took place
during one of the cold spells at a
time when the firing device went
out of commission through lack ot
attendance. Said that he had made
changes in thermostat position. Said
that the electric line being out of.
order at times caused a deal of in
convenience. Said that although
the firing mechanism was automatic,
it called for a certain amount of at
tention, and cited the city rules of
Seattle relative thereto where it
wasn’t allowable to leave any of the
steaming measure’s to run by them
selves.
Note by Editor.— Ancr this is so
A fireman in any of the heating
units must be licensed and constant
ly on watch.)
At this time the machine shop bills
were ordered paid.
Next came the fire escape. This
was considerably mulled over. Sug
gested that platforms be construct
ed so that escapes would clear win
dows, and that lower portions of es
capes be added to so that distance
of escapes from the ground would
not be greater than 3 Y2 feet.
Tax on Dogs
Tax on canines brought out more
argument. Report read from Ore
gon paper on the subject. Dog tax
mixed up with cess-pool toilets in
j the confab. Talk on the tax matter
. dropped for the moment and un
; drained sewerage turned inside out.
I Finally decided that the OWNERS
of drainless smellholes be gone af
ter, and that if they didn’t make
proper sewer connections at once
. the city would and the cost of such
* connections be placed against pro
| perty as a lien. (Ed.—A very good
£ move.) Committee appointed to
I see Mr. Locken, agent for some of
the odoriferous property in question,
and learn what he’d do about it.
Argument resumed on dog taxation.
$6. per ‘purp’ tho’t too lofty. Matter
finally carried over.
I City Bonds
In new business Mayor Swanson
stated that a holder of one of the
older city bonds desired to turn
same in as she needed the money it
- represented. In this particular iu
i stance the council decided that the
bond be purchased at its face value.
Union Oil Pipeline
The Mayor brought up the desires
of Mr. Brand, of the Union Oil Co.,
relative to the street right of way
for oil piping should that company
purchase the grounds now rented
Mr. Brand had stated to Mayor
Swanson that the street and pipe
(matter must be settled before any
thing was done toward securing

mittee was instructed to look over

consider himself responsible for the
freeze-up of radiators. That the

he grounds and bring in report.
Ownership of Streets
Next before the council was the j
question of ownership of certain
streets running at right angles to
the shore line beyond tide mark.
Since the city had rights to deep
water facing its streets it didn’t
matter who had equipage thereon,
it should he moved if the town de
manded removal.
At this time the MacGregor com
munication was turned over to Ma
Kecknie. >
Bureau of Education Gets Panned
Next up before the council was
a statement by Ohmer bearing on
the condition of the U. S. B. E.
school in town. The fuel situation
was taken up and severely criticised.
The condition of the school building
was given an airing that wasn’t at
all complimentary. The lack of of
ficial consideration was generally
condemned. Ohmer then made a re
quest that the school be allowed
free light and water for remainder
of the term. This started a talk on
I local Indian school conditions that
was blistering. Some one’s ears
must have heated considerably. It
came out that the Natives bad con
tributed sacks of coal to keep
building warm; some more, some
less, but a gen- ral contribution.
This did not include donation of
a ton of coal by Ohmer, himself.
Clerk instructed' to ask the bureau,
how come? Instructed to make
language plain and to the point. De
cided to send letter, in this matter,
direct to Hawkesworth, Juneau.
Settled that the Indian school have
free light, and water for remainder
of school term.
