Council Pails To Move Fall Meet on Monday Night
City council, with absent Councilman Exswirds, met as Mayor King called a concert to order. They amended June 5 minutes to include the ordinance for Philadelphia and Jersey streets, noting a two year contract limit. The five year deal with the electric company was cut to two years by consent, and T. J. Monahan signaled an imminent close. The Holbrook land deed issue and a missing city lot deed caused confusion, while license amendment proposals faced legal scrutiny. Debates over a saloon amendment and recorder handling produced ties and procedural debates, ending with a vote to accept the city auditor’s report, tied again, before adjournment teaser.

License 18 Dead, Councilman Edwards Ends With a No
City council meeting in St Johns adjourned with Mayor King presiding. A proposed 15 year gas plant franchise was discussed as a loss until the last year, street and sewer improvements ordered, bids readied, and a 90.15 bill for filing cabinets approved. The license ordinance faced final passage but was rejected amid accusations of infighting and infanticide jokes, as votes showed Edwards opposing the measure and the council divided four to three. A $1000 hotel check was debated and returned to the St John Hotel Company, with adjournment moved to Monday February.
