Show LET US CLEAN UP Say the mayor to the city .council. i Other matter up for consideration. At the tegulat meeting of the Loll gan clt.v council Wednesday evening Majoi Robinson offered the following pointed suggestions. jlentlemen, 1 wish to offer the following communication com-munication and recommendations to your honoiable bod. Thosanltaiv conditions in the business busi-ness portion of the city aio not good and this Is rather the result of conditions condi-tions than negligence The intctloi of the blocks there Is hone, combed with cess pools many of which aie full. The people concerned do what' they can to relievo the situation but It all goes to show that cess pools aie not adequate to the conditions. t recommend that a committee be appointed to investigate the whole question and determine whether It Is feasible to nina sewer pipe at least through the ccntial pait of the citj and where such a si stem could b emptied. 2. I have the tioublf to investigate investi-gate the cost of a rock crusher and 11 rid that one of about 15 tons per hour, on wheels complete with elevator eleva-tor can be had f. o. b., Illinois for about $(150.00. It will cost about $200.00 to Height same here. En-gineet En-gineet Schaub suggests that such a crusher could be used in the bed of Logan liver and that the watei would-i would-i cf 111 the holes made each jeat. This would save hauling tock fiom the mountains. I believe the citv should take tills matter up and If possible secure a ci usher that our streets may be repaired re-paired In a more peimancnt manner. :t. So fat as I have been able -to ascertain, as-certain, the exact condition of Logan Cltj's water tight Is vety little understood under-stood and If It Is a matter of t ceo id still It Is very much scatteied through the tecotds of the citj and county. The citj may llnd In the future that applications of the water by other patties have reduced the cltj's tights vcij matcilallj. Who knows what a law suit maj determine de-termine as to our lights' 1 wish to recommend that the question ques-tion be Investigated, that Logan City's lights be made a matter of record, rec-ord, that the old teseivolr be used to retain a water light there and that steps be taken to piocure possession of the mouth of Spring Hollow so that what rights the city has may In the future be there, and that when tfie city is ready to i-nlaigc its system that that particular watct may be available. Also to Investigate cost and advlslbllity of having a plat made of the water sjsteni of the city. 4. We have had trouble collecting licenses. Many claim their lating Is not couect and many feel that they should not be compelled to pay In advance, ad-vance, but during the) car. I have no recommendations other than that the mannci of computing the licenses be thoioughly agreed upon and under-tood under-tood and that the council express themselves as to whether licenses bo payable In advance or not. 5. 1 believe that the question of licensing tho liquor business should be taken up and tho woik Mulshed which was laid on your table for future fu-ture consldciatlon. E. W. Roin.ssoN. On motion of Evans a committee of three, Hell, Evans and Quaylc, was appointed to Investigate tlio sewciage proposition. The rockctusher poit of the Major's recommendation was-referred to the committee on streets, with city engineer en-gineer associated. The water woiks committee was in-stt in-stt uctcd to In vcstlgate the water i Ights of the city and also as to the advisability advis-ability of having plat of water sjstom made.
