Councilman Horner brought up
the matter of John Paulsteiner’s
letter in which he desired to
know whether or not the city
is willing to stand one-third the
cost of laying the concrete walk
which work has been done by
Mr. Paulsteiner. The property in
volved is the Paulsteiner home,
lot one, block one. The matter
was turned over to City Attor
ney L. V. Ray.
The police committee reported
Drv Agent Boyce desired better
policing of the city as there are
too many drunks about, that a
special officer could make his sal
ary from arrests and fines^ and
that Chief Guest spent too 'much
time running the fire and street
department trucks. It was also
stated that Deputy Marshal Reed
had also made similar protest to
council members. Upon the lat
ter complaint, it was pointed out,
a patrol of the city had been
made but not a drunk was seen.
Contrary to the government men
members of the council voiced the
opinion that the city has never
been so orderly, and as few
drunks seen, as during the last
six months. Other remarks were
made after which the matter was
put into the hands of the police
committee.
Councilman Swetmann brought
to the attention of the members
the poor condition of the walk
and street from the Urbach res

spoke on this matter and action
was taken insofar as request made
to obtain the cost of the proposed
improvement.
Councilman Orlander reported
on fire equipment for the new
school. Authority was given for
the purchase of hose racks, hose
and valves, and door mats for
school entrances. It was sug
gested that a hose house and a
sufficient length of hose, be built
at the nearest hydrant to the
school, on Fourth avenue. The
Chief was instructed to report
on this at the next meeting.
Mayor McMullen spoke of he
necessity of putting up warning
signs, in the school house area,
for motorists. Also enforcement
of the 8-mile limit over Lowell
creek. Chief Guest was instructed
to arrest violators from this per
iod on.
At this point of the meeting
Mayor McMullen called upon
Superintendent of Schools M. D.
Roaney, a visitor, if he cared
to talk to the council for a few
moments. Professor Roaney res
ponded with a brief speech which
is published in another column
of this issue.
Last upon the long list of
business matters was that of se
curing a flag pole for the school.
It is anticipated that some local
civic club might come to the
rescue with both a pole and flag.
