City committee approves street and water work measures
A chaotic city council session yields action on street openings and paving along Harned avenue and West Walnut. A finance ordinance sets a bonded debt for street improvements and water service, with bonds issued 1897 and 1910, and interest payable semi annually. The report orders sidewalk repairs and grade work, while a speaker promotes tonics and hearing aids amid the crowded meeting.
