The report of the civil service rules commission was referred to the com- | mittee on ordinances. A bill for $209 for insuring the ice house was approved. Collection of Ashes. Dolan moved that the recomimendations of the committee on the collection of hes be refer: ed to the hoard of finance and ta: Councilman tion. Councilman Curtis tioned against throwing all responsibility on the finance bhoard. He said the tax ite was the highest in the past eight or nine vears, despite the fact that all appropriations were pared to the quick. The schools will need $25,000 more, additional permanent pavement is anticipated and he did not see how the city can escape a tax ratc of nineteen or twenty mil The appropriations will be in- creased $170,000 and the increased in- come from a larger grand list will be only about $18.000, Mr. Cur said. This $170,000 does not include all the improvements anticipated. Councilman Dolan praised work of the committee on the dis- posal of ashes and especially Dr. T Reel the clerk of the com- mittee. Mr. Dolan said property owners would get out of it cheaper by payving taxes to have ashes removed than by paying private contractors to do it.

Council Represents People. Ir. Curtis remarked that the coun- considered more representative of the people than the finance board and should decide. He said he did not object to the recommendations going to the finance hoard but he questioned the advisability of refer- ring a report that ure to be re- jected. Councilman Teich moved that the hes collection committee appear be- the finance board and this was adopted in conjunction with Mr. Dolan’s motion. the said it was as Favored. report from the abattoir committee was received, stat- ing that between twenty and forty cattie are slaughtered every day in this city for domestic consumption, there being no inspection of the live animals or carcasses. The committee esti- mated the cost of an abattoir at be- tween $4,000 and $5,000, and its main- tenance at between $1,200 and $1,300 per annum. The council took a five-minnte re- cess while it examined a plan of the proposed building as prepared by the committee. Alderman Parker moved that recommendations be adopted = hut Councilman Curtis considered them too indefinite regarding the financial end of the poject.
