MAYOR TALKS OF NEXT YEAR Says He Will See to it that All of the Appro; m in No¥ Usea Up in the Early Months of the Year. I see by the newspapers that farmers along the routes of the rural mail car- riers In this county are doing splendid work dragging the roads and thereby plac- ing them In good condition for travel. When the farmers, the thought occufrred to me that It would be a good thing if the city officials would buy one of the road drags and drag Broadway from the Northwestern depot to the Methodist church. The dirt is 80 thick on Broadway that it is almost impossibie to recognize it as a paved thor- oughfare,” sald a well known business man yesterday. The streets and alleys fund has been depleted for several months and in conse- quence nothing has been done in the way of cleaning them since last fall. About the time of holding the fruft show under the auspices of the National Horticultural congress a little work was done on the streets in the immediate vicinity of the Auditorium, but since then the mud and debris has been permitted to accumulate until’ the granite paving blocks have be- come buried out of sight. Wednesday dur- ing the wind conditions on Broadway were most disagreeable. Dust and other debris were blown about, filling the stores front- ing on this main businéss street and making things generally uncomfortable for pedes- trias The appropriation for the streets and al- leys committes for the new fiscal year can be drawn upon after April 1 and Mayor Maloney stated yesterday that it was his intention to have Street Commistoner Flood get busy as soon as possible. The mayor | sald that a large street gang would be put to work and the streets in the business section of the city given a thorough clean- ing. ayor Gives His Views. “I am fuily aware that the streets need cleaning and need It badly,” sald Mayor Maloney. “We have been handicapped by a lack of funds, but I am planning to have matters different this year. I do not in- tend that the entire appropriation for the streets and alleys committee shall be ex- | pended in the first few months of the fiscal | year as has generally been the case. It is | my Intention to keep a sufficient amount avallable in this fund so that the streets, especlally those in the business center ofj the city, can be cleaned at regular inter- do not belleve in expending the money appropriated for the streets and alleys committee on the dirt roads. The money appropriated for the streets and alleys committee should be used to keep the streets clean. Repairs on the dirt thoroughfares should be done with the money out of the road fund. By this I mean that portion of the county road fund secured by taxation on property within the city should be expended on this class of strects. Mayor Maloney also suggested yesterday that It is about time that property owners should begin to think about getting their yards In shape. “I shall issue a notice next week calling the attention of the citi- zens to this and I shall expect them to get busy ' right away. Spring weather is here and there 1s no excuse for not getting an early start. * As to'the burning of rubbish on the streets 1 will grant such permission in due time.” vals. I New Enterprise Coming. T. A. Roberts, owner and manager of a calendar publishing company, now lo- cated in Shenandoah, Is planning to 1ove his plant to Gouncil Bluffs, with a view of Increasing Its capacity. Mr. Roberts has been fy the city for a few days look- ing the ground over and negotlating for the removal of his plant here. Although he has not yet' fully declded, Mr. Roberts expects to locate his plant in the upper portion of the Odd Fellow's temple building on Broadway. “The prop- osition 18 not yet closed,” sald Mr. Rob- 1 read of this good work being done byypbank at the corner of Broadway and North Council Bluffs erts, “but If everything turns out all right my plans will be complete by April 16 and unless something unforeseen hap- pens I shall be ready to move to Coudeil | Bluffs about that time PLANS FOR NORTH MAIN STREET Bullding of Anditorium Makes it & Business Street. The erection of the Auditorium at the corner of Washington avenue and Bryant treet promises to make a business streot out of North Main street, which had been a famillar but negiected thoroughtare since the pioneer days of Council Bluffs. Many new, modern bulldings are planned to fill up the vacant lots and to replace the old frame structures now standing. Following the erection of the Auditorium came the construction of the handsome four-story bullding of the City National Main strest and now it is said the looal aerle of Eagles contemplates putting up one of the finest lodge bufldings in the clty on the east side of the street. The Bagles have their eye on the Patten prop- erty as a site for a olub house and the matter of purchasing ‘it is now in the hands of a committee. This is the property which prior to the purchase of the lots at the corner of Washington avepue and Bryant street was talked of as & site for the auditorium bullding. The Patten prop- erty has a large frontage on Main street and extends back to the hay market at the rear of the city bufiding. Adolph Beno, owrier of the property north of the Bluff City laundry, has made ar- rangements to erect a two-story brick bullding which will be occupled as a grocery store. The work of tearing down the old structure now encumbering the lot was begun yesterday Morehouse & Co., owners and occuplers of the new brick buflding just south of the alley between Broadway and the cresk on the west side of Main street, have pur-| chased the property just south of its pres- ent building. The company, Mr. More- house: sald, plans to tear down the old | bullding now on the property and put up | a new buflding to conform with the onme the company now owns and occuples. The .Bluff City Laundry company has an architect' now drawing plans for an exten- slon of its plant on the west side of North Main street and will erect a new brick bullding just north of ‘its present quarters. Myrtue Brothers, contractors and builders, recently purchased the lot one door south of the Mynster street bridge and will erect | 4 new bulldingson It this spring. Peter Peterson, contractor and bullder, has re- cently purchased a lot on the east side of the btreet, just north of the Patten prop- erty, and will erect a modern brick bufld- ing, Which he will occupy as a carpenter and cabinet-making shop, with office and draughting rooms on the second story. The Nevada Motor company has acquired ttle to the old Steinkopf property at the corner of Main street and Washington ave- fiue, which it plans to convert into.an automoblle’ factory .this spring. It Mayor Maloney's plans are carried out the old bridge on North Main street will be replaced with an extension of the con- crete structure now being bullt over Indian creek to form a bridge at the foot of Bry- ant street and as the foundation for the | new central fire station. Mayor Maloney favors extending the concrete work so to connect with the concrete bridge at Mynster street. Masons Have a Big Time.
