Electric light plant tobe 40 feet wide. The several petitions were signed by 106 persons all over town. mostly real estate owners. though some we noticed were not. On these petitions several speeches were made, P. A. Montgomery asked for more time, as Mr. Frost had been away and the negotiations of necessity suspended. S. M. Mil- lard made a clear and vigorous speech in criticism ofthe old orig: inal ordinance, of the company's conduct, of the new ordinance pro- posed. and in view of the magni- tude of the interests. asked delay. or extension of time for further? consideration. Said he Would rather give 8500 than have the tracks along St Johns in front of his old home down south and pay all his assessment out of his own pocket for the paving. just the same sentiment Col. Davidsouhnd expressed regarding the tracks in front of his property. He empha- sized the need of more time for lminstaking. careful action and claimed the road hmldanmged the abutting property owners from thirty to fifty per cent. Alderman Cobb said Mr. Frost was not asking for the concessions noted in these petitions‘ that was the request of the property own- Alderman Phillipe presented 1L .petition signed by ten property; ‘owners asking the council to "pro. : vide for the equal protectiondwnev fits and rights of property front- ing on the right of way of said railway without distinction." The recommendations of the pumping engineer respecting clear- ing the sewers and repairing the outlet of sewer 'C were ordered. I l ers. He claimed any compenstltiun for right of way belonged tn thv citv and not to the property own- H‘s Thenew ordinzmco requiring the street railway folks tn put up 10 are lights now und 7) more 21 - Mr. Cole spoke at length. \Vhile it is the citizen‘s duty to respect the council they dq not surrender their right of criticism. Ward twa CITY COUNCIL While has one alderman at the front in t the service of his country, and the f other one has become an “alder- 1 man at large." The original or- C dinance was practically “thrown r at" the company, so anxious were a the people to have the road pm 1 lthrough. That council did as it best E knew: they were pioneers in the f business of granting franchises. We, the property owners on St ‘ Johns came here August 21111.1 8% and found this council about to . give the company the extra four feet width of trackway without any compensation. “'ith some re- luctance we were allowed one week finally extendedtwo more. All the property owners ask is to have the street railway company put their paving into the middle of the street instead of betWeen its rails. as the original ordinance demands. He then discussed at length the de- ‘ fects of Section ti of the proposed‘ new ordinance, and was followed ‘ by S. M. Millard in the saint- line i and it was finally amended h)" a new section, No. 9. which was passed. He aISo said the property owners were damaged and they claimed as their right an opporâ€" tunity, unhampered by conditions to make. if Imssible, satisfactory arrangements with'the company r arrangements 111111 1111- 11111111ou 1; for compensation. 111 Alderman (‘111111 said 1111 111111 was a l11oking after the public'a interest. but wholly f11rthe pr11pert1'1111'n11r11 l 1111 that particular street. . â€"\ld1 rman Davidson 1111111111 111 the pr111'e111111111 11f the individual 111'1- ill the public inte r1 st: the citizen 11 rivhtsare first the public 11111111111111 He then detailed the hiatury 11f the etf11rtst11 pave St. J11hna fur the last ‘11111'11ral 1 ears when finally tl1i11tr111-" l ame along the plans and ' wishes of the proper“ 1111'1111rs in ] lhis block were that the cuu1pan1 ‘ahnuld [111111 its r11ad11a_1'. and then all the hea1'1‘ traffic gunn that while '1‘ lthe 111111111 street way 11111111111 111-] kept 11511 1111111e111rd.
