ICOIIICIL ELECTS
The Common Council met last
night"to complete the meeting of the
night before, which had been ad
journed one day. Mayor Stater pre
sided, and Cotincilmen Ross, Howard,
Smith and Davis were present. Two
ordinances were adopted under a sus
pension of the rules, one correcting'
a mistake in the present ordinance
providing for the filling of vacancies
1 In the council, and the other correcti
an error in the present assessment
ordinance, regarding the redemption
of property sold on tax sales.
Under the head of new business,
the Council adopted a resolution de
claring vacant the seats of Council
man Price and Schmitz, on the ground
that they have been absent from
their duties for more than ninety ^
continuous days, and that neither of'
the gentlemen would be back in Cor- j
dova for the balance of the council -1
manic year. Both Messrs. Price and j
Schmitz are in Anchorage, and have
been for the past five months or
i inore.
Nominations to fill the vacanwes
were in order, and b. A. Harmon,
president of the Harmon Machinery
Co., and Dr. Charles L. Hale were
' nominated. There were no other
nominations and the two men were
unanimously elected to the office of
councilman by the members present.
Some discussion over the bills of
the town ensued, and certain minor
repairs to sidewalks were considered,
and the chief of police instructed to
notify the abutting property owners
to fix the same.
Immediately after the adjournment
of the council meeting the members
reconvened as a board of equalization
to consider protests against the tax
assessment. Mr. Feldman's letter
was read, and it was decided that
no action could be takei^ unless Mr.
Feldmanti personally appeared before'
the council. A protest was received
from the Alnska Transfer Company j
regarding the assessment on the1
horses and wagons of the concern,
but by vote of the board the protest
was disallowed. There being no other)
Protestants, the meeting adjourned I
at 9 o’clock.
