The recently elected village council of Cohasset held the first regular Meeting on Tuesday evening of last. week. When the election was held Owen Skelly was- absent on a western business tripand did not return in time to qualify within the time: te- quired by law, and so it was necessary for the cuuncil to make an ‘appoint- ment to fill the vacancy.” Mr. Skelly having beén ‘elected he: was), very, perly appointed to ube, positia : ‘Bhe coun¢ifconsists of Mortis O'Brién, president; W. W. Fleteher, D. A. Dunn and Owen Skelly, trustees; M. H. Jones, clerk, while H. H. Carrier handles the ‘casb. : Cohasset is quite a cedar point and some of the dealers hayefougd it cob-, venient to occupy part of some of the Streets with poles, etc. This has been the cause of some inconvenience to certain residents who appeared at the meeting Tuesday evening tomake protest. Action was taken to have thei{streets cleared of these obstruc- tions. Mike Stapleton, the efficient village marshal,fwas re-appointed for another year and his§j salarv fixed at $65 per month. The salary of Recorder Jones was Hxed at $20 per mouth, which is iittle enough, when it is taken into consid-} eration that Cohasset has one of the } most competent and painstaking re- corders in the state. His records are} kept in perfect order and upto date | all the time. i The appointment of a street com- | missioner was deferred until the next | meeting, when it is probable tpat Pat Hoolihan will be tendered the posi- tion. : The jHerald-Review was named as the official paper of the village, and the First State bank was named as the depository for yillage funds. The recorder was instructed to have an impounding ordinance drawn by an attorney and submit the same for consideration at the next meeting of the council. Ap adjournment was taken subject to call of the president. Grand Rapids Boys in College.
