ment be reduced from $600,000 to $187,500.
most respectfully reports adversely to the
reduction asked for, and recommends that
the valuation stand as returned by the city
assessor.
In support of this recommendation of
the committee, it might be entirely suf-
ficient to say that for the past seven years,
at least, the assessment of the property
has been fixed at $600,000. and has stood
at those figures, during all that period,
without serious objection on the part of its
owners; and that no evidence has been
presented tending to show that in the year
18110 it had become less valuable than in
previous years. In view, however, of the
large amount involved, and of the earnest-
ness and persistence with which the rep-
resentatives of the bridge company have
urged the reduction asked for, both before
the committee and in the public press, it
is probably clue to courtesy, as well as to
the importance of the subject, that we shall
state somewhat more lully our reasons for
the action recommended.
The principal grouna on which the offi-
cers of the bridge company have based
their claim and arguments for the pro-
posed reduction is their statement, which
we have not deemed it necessary to at-
tempt to controvert; that a new bridge of
better materials amu superior construction,
could now be built for $375,000, and, there-
fore, the present structure should not, at
most, be valued more than the cost of a
new and better bridge. That, as only one
half of their bridge is subject to taxation by
the city of Dubuque, the assessment of the
property should not exceed one half of
$375,060. They even insist that that
amount would be excessive, in view of the
age and probable necessity for a renewal
of the bridge in the near future.
To the suggsstion of a member of the
committee that the bare cost of the con-
structien of a bridge did not constitute the
only measure of its commercial value, but
that the right to maintain such a bridge
and the revenues derived from its opera-
tion, and the price it would bring if offered
for sale, were 2ircumstances to be consider-
ed in arriving at its assessable value, we
were answered, that the city had no power
to tax the income of the bridge; that the
right to build, maintain and operate it,
was not derived from the city of Duquque,
but from the federal government, and the
city had,therefore,no right to assess it, and
that the franchise was, at best, an intangi-
ble thing, of no intrinsic value, and not
subject to municival taxation.
When It was turtner suggested, on the
part of the committee, that within two
years a majority of the capital stock of the
bridge company ($1,200,000 in all) had
been sold:at premiums of more than twenty
per cent. above its par value, or at the rate
of $1,440,000 for the whole number of
shares of capital, we were met with the
reply that no part of the capital stock was
owned in the city of Dubuque and that the
city had therefore no right to tax it. And
further, that in the sale referred to, the
price paid for the shares was based very
largely on a contract with the Illinois
Central Railway Co., made twenty-three
years ago, under the term of which the
bridge company was authorized to charge
what would now be very high rates for the
crossing of cars and freight. That now,
since the Illinois Central owned or con-
trolled the stock, the contract was practic-
ally nullified, and the :value of the shares
resulting from the contract, had, in a great
measure, been wiped out or in the words of
a once noted fianancier, "gone where the
woodbine twineth '
With all deference to the representations
and reasoning of the bridge company, and
after giving them full weight, we are en-
ttsely of the opinion that their grounds for
asking a reduction are not well founded.
We are satisfied that the only true
basis for the valuation of the bridge for the
purposes of taxation, like that of all other
property, is its actual cash value, and that
in fixing or aiming at that basis, every cir-
cumstance or condition indicating the
value of the property, or tending to make
it valuable, may be taken into considera-
tion. While the expense of building the
fouucl:.tions and piers of a bridge, and put-
ting on its superstructure may properly be
taken into account, it is very far from be-
ing conclusive as to the value of the
property.
As an illustration, we may suppose the
case of two railway bridges, erected at ex-
actly the same cost, and encu owned as
separate property, distinct from the rail-
roads themselves. One of them accommo-
dates the traffic of a great trunk line, doing
an enormous liminess—the other furnishes
a crossing for the trains of a small plug
road, having an insignificant amount
of traffic. The one bridge brings
a very large revenue to its own-
ers—the other earns little or nothing
beyond the expense of operating It. Would
it be reasonable to contend that because
the bridges had cost exactly the same to
build them, or could be replaced for an
equal sum of money, that, therefore, one
was worth just as much as the other, and
that they should be assessed, for the pur-
pose of taxation, at exactly the same fig-
ures? The proposition is absurd on the
face of it.
It cannot be otherwise than evident to
every intelligent person that the bridge
doing the business of this great trunk road
would be worth vastly more than the
other, and would bring if offered for sale
in open market a far greater price, irre-
spective of the cost of its construction.
I Jere in the case we have just supposed,
which is not uncommon. in greater or less
degree in actual occurrence, we have an
illustration of the importance and relative
value of franchises. It is the franchise or
right possessed by the owners of the bridge
on the great trunk line to maintain and
operate a bridge at the point of its ioca-
tion which gives their bridge its principal
value. In such an instance it contributes
to the value of the property in a far greater
measure than the bridge itself, though
either is worthless without the other. \or
does it matter how or front what source
the owners of the bridge acquired their
rights, whether from congress or by con-
tract with the railroad company or from
both combined. Their ownership and pos-
session of it is the essential tact which, in
connection with the bridge itself, make the
two combined a property of high value.
And your committee, notwithstanding
the arguments of the bridge representa-
tives, is entirely satified that in a like man-
ner the right of the Dunleith & Dubuque
Co., to maintain and operate its bridge at
the point where it is located, is a most
essential and valuable privilege, and con-
duces very largely to the value of the
property, and also that it is immaterial
that it derives that right from the general
government, and not from the city of Du-
buque. It is sufficient that the company
owns and exercises it, in connection with
its other property, within our corporate
limits.
In attempting to arrive at the fair value
■
REGULAR SESSION, JANUARY brit, 1891. 7
of any property, the most conclusive teat
is the price it would bring if sold or offered
for sale in open market. In the absence of
such a test, it was proper for the assessor,
in the discharge•of his duties, to ascertain
and fix the valuation of the bridge property
from the best information he could obtain.
While a recent sale of a majority of the
capital stock of the bridge company may
not be conclusive as to the actual value of
the bridge property, it certainly affords
some indication as to what it was worth at
the time the transaction occurred. The
fact that a large proportion of the stock of
the company was sold at a rate
which would amount to nearly or
quite $1,500,000 for time whole, is noto-
rious and undisputed. What weight was
given by the assessor to that transaction
your committee is not informed. If he
took it into consideration, in endeavoring
to arrive at a fair valuation, we think:he
committed no error in doing so. Nor do
we understand how the alleged fact that
the stock was bought up by the Illinois
Central, or is not, and for the purpose of
evading an onerous contract, affects the
transaction indicative of the value of the
bridge, or how the mere change in owner-
ship lessened the value of the shares, or
of the property itself. As the bridge com-
pany is the party coin planting of the assess-
ment, it is evident that that company has
still a distinct and separate existence. And
the objectionable contract, for aught the
public, or your committee knows to the
contrary, may yet be unannulled. But
whether it is or not we consider imma-
terial.
No claim has been made before your
committee that the business of the bridge
during the last or preceding years has been
decreased. On the contrary, it was dis-
tinctly admitted by its representatives, that
it has constantly been growing greater.
The fact, that within two years, two addi-
tional railways have made use of the Uri(' -.0
for the passage of their trains, wool(l
make this evident without further proof.
While before the coal it was state('
by the general officers of the coin any that
daring the monthof October last over 21,-
000 cars belonging to the various railways
crossed the bridge, and that. during No-
vember the number was fully as great.
From other valuable information we are
satisfied that the traffic over the orifi ge is
greater than on any other bridge on the
Mississippi river, with a single possible
exception. It is not unreasonable to be-
lieve that the revenues of the bridge com-
pany are correspondingly great.
With a sincere desire to be fair and just,
and to treat the appeal of the bridge com-
pany with the respect that it is certainly
entitled to receive,your committee is unan-
imously of the opinion that the assessment
as returned by the assessor is not unrea-
sonable or excessive, and should remain
unchanged.
Respectfully submitted,
P. W. CJAwyoun,
Chairman.

iron and ties, and report the same
to the council, the council then
atter such appraisement may ac-
cept the same or reject it at
their discretion, but should the city council
accept such appraisement by said com-
mission the appraisement so made he final
and the council may then direct the city
auditor to notify each railroad company as
above named to each pay within ten days

pense pro ratio to the number of cars run

each clay not later than 5 p. ni. what num-
ber of cars and where to or where from
such cars will be moved during the n ght,

per month to be paid by each railroad
csmpany per ratio of cars operated
to be paid at the end of each and every

bilities of operating such side tracks and
switches and all matters pertaining to the

To the Honorable Mayor end Cit ('. nn -
cit of the City of Ltuburiue:
GENTLEMEN: Your finance committee
herewith present for your consideration
complete annual reports of the officers in
their respective departments, showing
fully the financial transactions of our city
during the past year ending Feb. 28th,
in presenting the same we take
they liberty in calling your attention to a
a few important points.
We rind considerable shrinkage in what
are usually estimated as available re-
sources in the items of delinquent taxes,
license and special taxes, some of which
run back a number of years as shown by
the report of the auditor. We will venture
a suggestion to the incoming council,
that they devise some means of collectins;
. all these old matters that are collectable
and cancel all that are not collectable. 1 t
certainly must be a disadvantage in re -
taming uncollectable accounts on the city
books to be considered in the estimated
available resources, for we know that in
our deliberations on the tax levy we must
use as a basis our estimated available re-
sources and if they are not reliable, the
result is a shrinkage at the end of the (is -
cal year. We find

benefited, it will not be neees,ai't for the
next board of equalization to increase the
levy of tax for 1891. Otherwise they will
be obliged to increase the levy in order to
cover the unavoidable large increase in
street expenses for the ensuing year.
During the year we were obliged to bor-
row money in different amounts aggregat-
ing $47,000 to meet the necessary current
expenses, most of which was obtained at
6 per cent. interest, and that at - per cent.
only during the stringency of the money
market in October and November.
While we are at this point we wish to ex-
plain the status of the Stocking' bonds,
which we undertook to refund at 4 per
cent, interest, calling the six per cents in
August 15, 1890. Nearly all the bonds
were turned in, but unfortunately the
stringency in the money market cameupon us before we could get the four per
cents placed, and we are indebted to tilt.
German Trust and Savings bank for their
kindness in taking up the old bonds ;tnt,l
holding them for us. We feel confident
from the present prospects in the atone\
market that the new finance conituiuee
will soon be able to place the new I poi-
cent. bonds in place of the six Per cents,
which will be quite a saving in interest

to the city.
The worst feature (to outsiders only) in
the face of our city bonds is the five-year
clause, but one moment's thought and a
glance at the balance of our bonded debt
of $38,057.89 drawing 7 per cent.; of $201,-
926.67 drawing 6 per cent. due in 1896;
of $356,956.55 drawing 6 per cent,
due in 1897, and of $107,161.43
miscellaneous loans drawing 6 per cent.
due 1`+99 to 1904 will convince any one that
it not at all likely that the city will take
tap t per cell' bonds before the full time—
so years, or at least as long as there are
plenty of six and seven per cent bonds so
near due.
Upon the resignation of Mr. Sass as city
treasurer Nov. 1st, 1890, and the the conse-
quent transfer of all moneys, books, etc., to
the new treasurer, Mr. L. Gonner, we
found ever ything correct -and the system
ot bookkeeping good. The matter of keep-
ing record and reports of the payment of
interest coupons upon suggestion of the
auditor can be improved by the adoption
of a form which we have recommended.
There has been inure or less trouble in the
payment of bills for supplies in the draw-
ing of warrants covering bills for the
same goods twice. This, we believe, can
be easily obviated by properly defining
and enforcing the duties of the committee
on purchase of supplies, and we would
recommend that the officer at the head of
each department in the city be re-
quired at the beginning of each month or
quarter of the year to furnish thechairman
of the committee on purchase of supplies,
a list of the probable requirements in his
department for such stated period, and it
should be the duty of said committee
through the chairman to purchase all such
supplies at the lowest competition prices.
By this we believe many dollars could be
saved for the city, Sind duel u me bills and
payments more easily and entirely avoided.
We believe his honor, the mayor, and
every member of the council, has acted on
every question with a view purely in the
interest of the city of Dubuque. We take
no credit upon ourselves as a finance com-
mittee, further than that we succeeded in
borrowing all the money that it was abso-
lutely necessary to have to meet the cur-
rent expenses, and in so doing we feel
proud to say we found the credit of the
city excellent.

Therefore, be it resolved by the City

doing of the work; the expense thereof as-
sessed to the owner or owners of said lots.

whether elected or appointed, who
shall fail for any reason to carry out the
instructions of the city councill shall be

Ald. llalpin offered the following which
was adopted.
Whereas, The City Council of the City
of Dubuque, did on the 6th day of Octo-
ber, 1890, grant by ordinance certain

Therefore, Be it Resolved by the City of
Dubuque, That the city engineer be and is
hereby instructed to prepare a proper plat
of said parcels of land for the purpose of
taxation and said plat and description be
furnfshed to the assessor for taxation for
1891.
Ald. Babcock offered the following
which was adopted:
Resolved, That an order for $50 be drawn
in favor of Mrs. Siege on account of the
opening of Fremont street, being the
amount awarded by the jury and now in
the hands of the treasurer, and the city at-
torney is instructed to procure the neces-
LICENSES.
We believe a small license should be im-
posed on all twill; peddlers. With their
wagons they have unlimited use ot our im-
proved streets, and they should be willing
to bear a portion of the expense necessary
to keep up our streets.
We believe all foreign insurance com-
panies doing business in the city should
be required to pay a small city license.
They should be willing to bear a portion
of the expense necessary to keep up our
the department.
The chief of the fire department in
his report makes some very excellent
suggestions in regard to fire protection
for the laid property, which should re-
ceive eaaretul eme.id •ratioi and action of
the incoming council, hearing in mind that
this portion of our city is becoming quite
thickly populated and paying their pro-
portion of the expense of the fire depart-
ment they should receive due considera-
tion.
We hope the members of the new council
w:11 pardon us Lf we have overstepped a
reasonable boundary of advice and recom-
mendations to them, and allow us to make
one more, and that is to urge the neces-
sity of erecting a fire proof safety vault
large enough to accommodate all the
valuable books and papers belonging to
the city. We believe the citizens of Du-
buque would willingly pay an extra
mill tax to meet the expenditure. In con-
clusion we cannot but compliment the
heads of all the different departments for
their ever courteous deportment and for
the efficient manner in which they have
discharged their respective duties.

takes is largely due to the governing
body, hence the responsibility with the
people in making seleetions fur the import-
ant duty devolving newt members of the
council, and in selecting the council as a
body, for upon it does the prosperity
largely depend. If the people make poor
selections they must expect poor results,
for a council cannot. rise in discretion surd'
wisdom above that of the members. The
responsibility for decay, therefore, in most
instances, rests with the people.
Dubuque to -day stands pre-eminent in
commercial importance over all other cities
of the state, and had it been afforded the
opportunities of profiting by its natural
advantages, it would to -day have ranked
first, in population instead or sceontt. The
city we represent is one of which we may
well feel proud, her business interests and
enterprises resting on a financial founda-
tion as solid as the "rock of ages.'' All re
turtling influences the council has had to
contend with for the past two years had
their origion at home—the fancily circle—
and yet without truth or foundation in
fact. I am glad however that the influence
of that ominous shake of the head is a
thing of the past, and that the city is now
improving and growing property enhanc-
ing in value, as in no other city in toe
state, and second to none in the north-
west, while the natural advantages and
merits of the city are commencing to shine
out to the world unclouded with false re -
fleet kilts from home.
1' wo years since the council was pledged
to conduct the affairs of the city in con-
sonance with the true science of municipal
government, but we have failed in more
instances than one. The science issImtlie,
but strict adoerence to principle is often
exceedingly difficult. As we commence
anew it is well for us to consider the
"stumbling blocks" over which we have
for years been tailing.
In the tirst place we are without any
financial system. It is exceedingly strange
that this is true, yet I must confess that for
the last half of each fiscal year during the
two years 1 have beet contributing my
feeble efforts in ;tiding the council, I have
been without iutertn,ttiou as to the condi-
tion of the treasury. ler cout•ouu parlance
we have been • going it blind." We never
had any record of the appropriations, or
liabilities incurred from Lime to time.
Liabilities incurred daily without refer-
ence to appropriations heretofore made,
and without knowledge as to amount 01
available funds in the treasury. When
the fiscal year closes the receipts and ex-
penditures are summed up, and then, for
the first I line, we know we have a balant•e
to our credit, or have euhauneed the float -
iii debt. '1'1w fact is, gentlemen, we have

that upon the council ordering any .im-
provement made, or upon any liability
being assumed, the amount thereof
should be charged in the account at once
by the auditor, then the balance would
always show available funds in that de-
partment. The ordinance now requires
the amounts to be charged when paid,
hence is but little aid, as the purpose of
the ordinance is to require such an account-
ing that we may at any and all times know
the condition of the treasuryconsidering lia-
bilities incurred. One important feature
of the ordinance should be an appropria-
tion for street repairs and cleating, or
street commissioner's fund. Under the
present system the city is virtually al the
mercy of a street commissioner, who has
no particular responsibility. Set aside a
stated sum for his purposes and you will be
able to nix a responsibility that will be of
great value, and largely reduce street ex-
penses, and without which you need not
expect economy in that department.
It will require sonic additional labor on
the part of the auditor, but the present in-
cumbent informs me it can be dune with-
out difficulty. For the additional labor lie
should be paid. The increase in salary
would not be worth considering i'hen we
think of the large sums of money annually
expended on the supposition that we will
have a balance to apply on the floating in-
debtedness. The appropriation ordinance
thus amended and followed will ever af-
ford a guide to the council and avoid all
guess work as to amounts expended and
available funds subject to cheek. I sin-
cerely hope the council will amend this or-
dinance and comply with its terms. It
will be a great ail to the mayor and of
great value to the aldermen.
The streets of Dubuque require much at-
tention. Main street is in a deplorable
condition and every spring complaint is
made and the cry is "who is to blame
Some observations will answer the ques-
tion. ltrequires but little skill to ascer-
tain that the street is made of poor rock.
Limestone spalls are the poorest of all ma-
terials with which to macadamize streets,
and especially those subjected to heavy
traffic. "Who is to blame' for the toml is
answered by the statement that tete sys-
tem of improving and repairing is at fault
and not city officials for work done. The
macadam on Main street is little more
than hard clay. The frosty of winter fol-
lowed by damp and warm weather
softens the limestone so that it
is crushed by very moderate traf-
fic, hence the greater part of the
mud we see on the street. The only way
to rid ourselves of the evil is a change in
the method of street making. Limestone
is wholly unfit for street purposes, and is
either muddy or extremely dusty, and is
an expensive material. I' or instance : It
costs annually over $8,000 for street clean-
in,g, and no one has ever accused us of
having clean streets, hence $8,000 and
over annually spent in scraping and haul-
ing off material, most of which is placed
on the streets at large expense. In addi-
tion to this the repairs to streets Costs over
$30,000 annually. More money is spent
annually in repairs than in construction,
for the average annual cost of street con-
struction is about $28,000. These figures
demonstrate that there is something radi-
cally wrong. We have about 250 miles of
streets, of which 44 miles are improved,
(not including streets made last summer)
as follows:
In First ward. 5 miles.
In Second ward, 11 miles.
In 'Third ward, 13 miles.
In Fourth ward, 7 miles.
In Fifth ward, 8 miles.
The improved streets are the expensive
ones to keep in repair, and as the improved
streets increase in milea.e the cost of re-
pairing will proportionally increase.
flow to improve streets is the lo•oblem
aoostdifficuli for us to solve. In the light
of experience of other cities and our own
needs t have no hesitation in sa3lug Main
street should be paved and no more mac-
adam used thereon. The Material to be
used is for you to hater nine, and I recom-
mend that. the cutniciI cutnnience the im-
provement at anew with ervrle blocks un-
less you c;tn agree upon some substantial
material that kill coat less money. The
best pavane brick May be sufficient for
level streets but on heavy grade's granite
block is better. I cannot recommend
brick for paving Main street between F .rst
and Fourth streets. 'l'he block of j;isperite
is a failure an my judgment, due to the
manlier of consirui i i r. l'ol. Drake, flu+

the city is not the loser as the work was

for Me to say a few for is coh •eruing cost

REGULAR SESSION, APRIL 9'rir, 1891 (')a
city the powers originally conferred by to spend at home—instead of sending it to
charter, and then let the council in its wis-
dom say whether or not the present sys-
tem and high rate of taxation shall con-
tinue. It will be remembered that the
most costly streets we have were not made
by the city, so the argument that it would
be unjust to those who have been contrib-
uting through general taxation to streets
constructed, does not apply with much
force. however, it is a poor argument to
say that because we have pursued an er-
roneous course for a term of years that we
cannot correct it. Taxes will not be bur-
densome with this change, and the indi-
vidual property owner will not be required
to contribute as much money through tax-
ation to the municipolity as under the
present system. In view of the fact that
we have over 200 miles of unimproved
streets, this subject is one of vast import-
ance and should he well considered.
There are a number of small matters that
should receive attention as soon as practi-
cable. For instance, the ordinance relat-
ing to licenses should be amended so that
when application is made during the fiscal
year the applicant could procure his
license upon Laying for time, commencing
with the first til the month in which the
application is made rather than from the
first of March and October of each year as
now provided. This change will relieve
the council of numerous petitions and
vexatious questions.
Again, the council should require all
aprons for entrance over sidewalks to pri-
vate property to be removed. They are
dangerous obstructions and should anyone
be injured by reason of such obstruction
the city would unquestionably be held for
damages. Proper crossings can be made
by the property -owners under the super-
vision of the proper officers and will be
better and safer and at the same time im-
prove the appearance of the streets.
It would also be well for the council to
require the officers to report to the com-
mittee on purchase of supplies the needs in
Iheir respective departments, and state-
ments of material that will probably be
needed from time to time, that the sup -
may be purchased by the committee.
IOWA LEGISLATION CONCERNING MCNICI-
PALITIES.
Our state laws are not calculated to pro-
mote the welfare of cities, and this, per-
haps, is one of the reasons why the state
cannot boast of a city such as is found in
each of our border states. It is singular,
yet the fact is the state is surrounded with
large cities, some states having two, while
Iowa has none. There is a cause for this.
The retarding influence should be sought
out and the evil remedied by the state.
One matter of legislation, particularly
injurious, is that pertaining to municipal
indebtedness. The statute provides that
any bonds issued by a municipality shall
be subject to redemption in live years.
The effect of this is that bonds cannot be
easily placed at a low rate of interest.
A twenty-year 4 per cent. bond issued by
Dubuque could easily be negotiated, but
when the live year redetnptiou clause is
inserted as required by Iowa legislation,
the bond isn't taken unless the rate of in-
terest is increased. Our indeutedness of
about $750,000 can tie refunded as it ma-
tures at 4 per cent, if the next legislature
can be prevailed upon to relieve the tax-
payer of paying six and seven per cent.
interest by repealing the statute referred
to. At the present rate of taxation the
council would have over 816,000 annually
more money to make improvements with—
New York and Boston.
While petitioning the legislature of Iowa
for relief in the matters mentioned it would
be well also to ask for a statute authoriz-
ing the council to divide the city into
sprinkling districts and authorize an as-
sessment in each district for costs of
sprinkling the streets therein. It certainly
would be a great benefit to have the streets
in entire districts sprinkled in summer
time, thereby preventing clouds of (lust
from flying through the streets to the detri-
ment of every one, especially to the mer-
chants.
I will close my remarks with a few
words on the subject of
FRAN CIIISES.
Our city has been more seriously injur-
ed and retarded by loose legislation in
the matter or granting franchises than in
any other one particular. For years it
seems to have been the pleasure of the
council to grant a franchise for almost
any purpose desired, without imposing
any particular burdens upon the grantee
or exacting a consideration for privileges
granted.
For instance, a franchise was granted to
the Telephone Co., but no express con.
ditions were imposed upon it by which
the council can protect the people and re-
quire it to render service for reasonable
compensation. There is no limitation on
the charges, and practically the city has
but little control over it. The council
should avail itself of the first opportunity
to impose upon the company the proper
restrictions. The Dubuque Street Rail-
way Co. had the same kind of a franchise
two years ago, under which the council
was practically powerless to compel it to
afford any reasonable accommodations,
but the council took advantage of an op-
portunity and after a protracted struggle
the company accepted an amendment to
its franchise with the same restrictions
and conditions imposed by the council on
the Dubuque Electric Railway Light
and Power company, which will
enable the council to protect the
people and exact a reasonable service as
an equivalent. The result of the council's
struggles for the people is that to -day we
have a first-class overhead system of elec-
tric street railway which, with sixteen
cars (including new ones now en route)
will, commencing the 1st of May, give a six
minute service, while on the Main street
line will be operated the only storage bat-
tery system in the United States. It is in-
deed gratifying to know that Dubuque
was among the first cities of Iowa to have
an electric railway and the first in the
United States to have the storage battery
system. I have never seen cars more beau-
tiful than the four new storage battery
cars (and the six additional cars en route
are the same, so Mr. Rhophberg informs
ine) and Mr. Rhomberg is entitled to credit
for this distinction by planing Dubuque at
the very front of all the prosperous, pro-
gressive cities of the United `;tides, and
providing our city with that which will be
a model for all other cities. I ala exceed-
ingly glad to realize the improvement iii
the service of the Dubuque Street
railway Stop a moment, gentle-
men, and picture Main street
paved and cleanly swept, with elegant
street cars moving to and fro, Is the picture
too bright ? No, gentlemen. I f we work

uy of the Allen & Swiney line, as it is
familiarly called, aroused Dubuque from
its slumbers, and with these two lines
competing for business, the people will be
provided with ample accommodations,
and there is no limit now to our prosperity
and progress if the council is careful espe-
cially in granting franchises or additional
privileges to the corporations now com-
peting for the patronage of the people.
1V hi le granting franchises constitute spe
tial legislation, and:each ordinance is dis-
tinct from any other, granting similar
privileges, yet they shout not materially
differ on the same subject matter. That is
to say the same restrictions, conditions
and burdens should be imposed upon like
institutions, and franchises secariig to
each and all the same advantages but giv-
ing none privileges withheld from others,
thereby conferring superior advantages
and favors. One 1111111, or one corporation,
is as good as another in the eye
of the law, therefore the coun-
cil should treat all alike and be
partial to none. These principles should
be rigorously applied this year, that peo-
ple generally may profit and be benefited
to the credit of the city, by controlling the
„various companies competing for lighting,
street railway and other privileges.
On the success of the various enterprises
- largely depends our future growth, hence
no legislation should be permitted which
would necessarily produce unnatural and
unhealthy strife. For instance we have
three distinct systems of street railway
service, each of which has ample territory
of its own without entering the territory of
another. To have the street car lines upon
the sante street would be utter folly, as
one must perish while the other must
suffer financially. The people would gain
no benefits and not enjoy a good, efficient
service from either, but should it become
ne.•essary for one company to extend its
hoes or use another company's tracks a
short distance to enable it to extend to a
point beyond—but should one company de-
sire to occupy a street with another com-
pany or use its tracks a short distance
to enable it to extend its lines
to an advantageous point beyond,
it should be accorded that privilige, even
though it should operate injuriously to the
company' first occupying the street, be-
cause of the fact that such an extension
would be a benefit to the public, and the
pu bi ie interests are what we are here to pro-
tect as against the interests of private
parties.
Whatever you do in the way of granting
franchises, by all means avoid the mis-
takes of the past in granting corporations
privileges on verbal promises of the offi-
cers or representatives. If the franchise
is not worth having with the condition
embodied as a consideration of the grant,the
franchise is not worth having without the
condition, and is surely not worth grant-
ing. If Dubuque continues to prosper and
grow it will be due to her ability to attract
foreign capital. If when foreign capital
is brought in it is discriminated against,
no more need be expected. A great re-
sponsibility rests upon us—the town is
alive—progress is the watchword—growth
and prosperity will continue so long as
we so conduct the affairs that from our
acts the greatest good redounds to the
largest number. R. W. STEWART.

AId. Crawford, from the ordinance com-

relation to team license, which was
adopted:
To the City (mtnril:—Your committee
on ordinances, in pursuance of a resolu-
tion presented by Aid. Trexler at the meet-
ing of the cuumeil on April 9th, submits
herewith an ordinance amending the or-
dinance relative to the licensing of team-
ster's and expressmen. The ordinance, as
amended, provides for the licensing of all
teams engaged in the hauling or delivery
for profit or hire, of goods, merchandise or
other articles of eNery description. It is
intended to include the teams of dealers in
lumber, wood, coal, rine wood, ice, brick
sand, stone, and many others. It will
probably apply to milkmen and the deliv-
ery wagons of retail grocers. As its adop-
tion will undoubtedly create some dissat-
isfaction among the parties affected, it
will be well for the council to understand
fully in advance the effect and scope of the
proposed amendment.
The teamsters and expressmen, who
have heretofore been required to pay
license, have long complained of the al-
leged hardship and injustice of the re-
quirement which has exacted an annual
license fee from them, while great num-
bers of other tennis engaged in the haul-
ing and delivery of the goods of heavy
dealers in lumber, coal, ice, wood, brick,
stone and numerous other descriptions of
goods and wares, were exempt from any
payment. It is the object of the proposed
ordinance to remedy the injustice com-
plained of. Respectfully submitted.

revised ordinances relative to teamsters'
licenses can reasonably be construed to
impose the payment of a license fee on
livery stables or private carriages, and it
was not the intention of the council to im-
pose such license fee: and
Whereas, The object and purpose of the
council in adopting said ordinance is
plainly apparent from the wording of the
ordinance itself and from the report of the
ordinance committee submitting the same;
therefore
Resolved, That the published notice of
the marshal calling upon the proprietors
of livery stables and the owners of private
carriages to pay for and take out licenses
under the new ordinance is not in accord-
ance with said ordinace, and is unwar-
rantedby the provisions of the same, and he
is therefore hereby instructed to withdraw
said notice from the papers, and if nece -
sary substitute one in conformity with the
amended ordinance as passed.

94 REGULAR SESSION, JUNE 1st, 1891.
Ald. Peaslee moved that the matter of
storm water sewers under C., 13. .it N.
right of way be referred to the committee
ot the whole. Carried.
Ald. Saunders, chairman of the special
committee on opening of Lincoln avenue,
reported as follows:
Your special committee to whom was re-
ferred the within petition of extending
Lincoln avenue from Jackson street to
Cooler avenue beg leave to submit the fol-
lowing report:
First. A plat has been prepared by the
city engineer which shows that the total
distance necessary for said right of way is
about 320 feet, but that 320 feet will give an
outlet to a street over two miles in Length.
Second. \Ve find that the blocks through
which said extension is asked for are
about 1,100 feet in length, without a cross
street, and that Cooler avenue can not be
properly drained unless the said Lincoln
avenue is extended, as Eagle Point avenue
can not take all the storm water and cel-
lars on Couler avenue are therefore situ-
ject to overflow.

am confronted with circumstances that
aban-
donmake my it
Profession to cerative ome
conformon therewith.
After keeping open office for more than
two years, where private business has al-
ways given way to public duty, 1 am not
now willing to take advantage of the or-
dinance and refuse to transact official busi-
ness during other hours than those desig-
nated. It would nor would
satis-
factory to the public
it be just. To give three hours
each morning from my law office, and be
subjected in the afternoons to the require-
ments of official business, would entirely
sacrifice my practice, which I cannot
afford, and therefore resign my position
as mayor of Dubuque.
Respectfully,
ROBERT W. STEWART.

Street Lighting.
The general public is respectfully re-
quested to notify police headquarters either
by telephone or postal card of the neglect
of the lamplighter to properly light and
take care of gasoline lamps. Many com-
plaints are made of the manner in which
the lamps are being attended to. A num-
ber of these lights are beyond the police
boundaries, and the only means the police
have of knowing that the lamps are not
being attended to satisfactorily is by the
number of complaints received. The citi-
zens will confer a favor on the officers and
secure better service in the lighting if they
will rep•m't delinquencies to police head-
quarters. J. W. IIALPIN,

My sincere thanks for the honor you

shall recognize you with respect and feel-
ing of a fellow member of this council, as
1 have been associated with most of you
in official relation for years. Such have
been very pleaiant, and may they con-
tinue. And as you have deemed it wise
to select me for mayor of our beautiful and
prosperous city, may your action be ap-
proved by our worthy citizens. I will do
all lean to promote the welfare and guard
the common interests of all.
As I am now ready to accept the office, 1

Members of the Council:
GENTLEMEN:—As the fiscal year in city
affairs is wt 11 advanced, must of the larger
contracts have been let, and the resources
of the city treasury, as in former years at
this time, have shrunk almost to nothing;
nearly all the appropriations have been
spent on our streets, partly for grading
but mostly for storm water sewers which
become a necessity when certain streets
are ordered improved. The bulk of the
street improvements now under way were
ordered by a former council, and the bilis
for grading, sewers and other large items
were left for the present council to pay. 1
deem it but just that the beanie, if any,
should be put where it justly belongs, and
as 1 was a member of the former council
1 will shoulder my just share, if any.
There is an old adage, still true, that "it is
never too late to mend." And if the fel-
low members of the council will, front this
on, give their services to the city
in a prompt business -like manner, you
will find that, like your own private busi-
ness, the city affairs will be managed in
good style. 'There is no reason why
the city should not get the actual value for
the money expended.
I.et us, before any contract is ordered,
ask the finance committee if such improve-
ment can be made without straining the
city treasury. 1 most earnestly recommend
that you snake a special levy of one mill to
redeem what are known as the Stocking
bonds, which were called in a year ago
without making the proper arrangements
for paying the same, and which have been
laying at a bank at a 7 per cent rate of in-
terest, and the payment of which may be
demanded at any flute when least expected.
This bond obligation amounts to $26,000.
Let us consult the city attorney and the
committee on ordinances before we adopt
ordinances that are a hardship rather than
a benefit to our citizens.
No claims should be allowed that are in
any way doubtful or not properly signed
by the respective committees of the sev-
eral departments.
The committee should see, and it is their
duty to see, that all street labor is fairly di-
vided as to teams and hands. 'There must
be no favoritism shown to any person or
persons. You will then be in a position to
demand in return an honest day's work
for an honest day's pay. See that each
man or team gets as nearly as possible the
sante number of days' work.
The principal streets in the heart of the
city must have immediate attention, as
they are in need of repairs.
Granite or brick paving is without doubt
the best mode of Improvement, but before
either can be put down it is necessary to
adopt a better plan of drainage. 1 there-
fore recommend that you instruct your
street commissioners to proceed at once to
make the necessary repairs, and also in-
struct the street railway companies to re-
pair their part.
The committee on harbors will please
keep the harbors in such condition as will
reflect a proper credit on the city.
The committee on supplies should insist
that all supplies needed for the several de-
partments of the city, unless otherwise
provided by ordinance, must be bought by
that committee, and a recbrd kept by tate
committee clerk, who shall report each day
to the city auditor each and every such
purchase and for what department. We
will then know at any time if a bill 18 cor-
rect and the cost of each article before pur-
chasing.
I'ubtic grounds and buildings should al-
ways be kept in the best of condition as
they are generally taken for example when
the council tries to enforce its ordinances
relative to private grounds and buildings.
Contracts for city printing having been
awarded the committee should see that, as
in every other contract, the city trust have
the proper returns for the outlay.
The fire department is as good as can be
had as to mien, but as to number and ap-
paratus it is weak. While the city has ex-
perienced extraordinary blessings of Provi-
dence nt immunity from destructive tires,
we should not depend too touch on Provi-
dence but be better prepared for emergency.
The water company, according to their
franchise, must be in such condition as to
supply an adequate amount of water
wherever required.
The police department will be under my
direct supervision, and 1 assure the coun-
cil and the public that the police will and
must be a credit to the city. Mules will be
placed at police headquarters and they
trust and will be enforced.
Our city is fairly well supplied withelec-
tric, gas and gasoline lights, but as the
city builds up on the outskirts more lights
are needed, but by referring such matins
to the finance comtnittee you will use due
consideration on new expenditures.
The committee on delinquent taxes must'
be very considerate and exercise the great-
est care, and while you mus: respect the
hand held up for charity, yet see that jus-
tice is done to the taxpayers.
The committee on electrical construct on
is charged to see to the proper construction
and fastening of dangerous wires to guard
against damage to life and property. The
committee should also insist that all poles
in the city limits be painted Immediately.
I atm informed by the city engineer that
the sanitary sewers are in good condition.
They ought to be kept so, as on them de
pends the health of the city. Livery
stables, laundries, in fact all places where
large amount of water is used, should be
made to connect, so as to avoid the nui-
sance of large amount of stagnant water
lying in gutters and streets.
You will find that all the offices in the
city department of the city hall are in
very good condition and the various elected
officers are very attentive to duty. You
and all the people who may wish to see the
mayor on city business will find him at the
office at the tine required by ordinance.
Very glad to be of service to tie people of
Dubuque.

Ald. Crawford offered the following as a
minority report: Respectfully recommend
that all ordinances or part of ordinances
requiring teamsters, draymen, true k►nen,
expressman and keepers of livery stables
to obtain a license in order to prosecute
their business be repealed.
It is reported in the daily press that a
large portion of the teamsters and owners
of teams intended to be reached b y the re-
cent amendment to the ordinance have
combined to resist the payment of license,
whether they have the law on their side or
not the undersigned believe it will be un-
profitable for the city to enter on a pro-
tracted contest to entorce collection. While
litigation would be pending it is not prob-
able that any of those to whom the ordi-
nance applies, would pay their licenses
until the legal question would be finally
decided, If the ordinance requiring the
payment of license, cannot be enforced
against aril persons engaged in the busi-
ness of leaning; we think it would be un-
just to exact payment from any portion of
them—espestally as those willing to coin -
ply with the ordinance are a class least
able to pay.
Further, we doubt the policy or justice
of compelling ally of our citizens to pay at
license for the privilege of carrying on any
legitimate business.
Respectfully submited,
P. W. CHA.wponn,

nority report:
The undersigned beg leave to present a

,lackson street, and would recommend that
the appraisement of said jury on Lincoln
avenue from Cooler avenue to White
street. be confirmed and approved and that

Ald, Crawford moved to lay the minor-
ity report on the table. Carried by the
following vote:
Ayes—Aids. Crawford, Glab, Halpin,
Page, Peaslee and Smith.
Noes—Aids. Cushing, Fosselmanu and
Trexler.
On motion the report of the committee
was adopted.
Ald. Crawford made the following re-
port:
Your special committee, consisting of
the aldermen of the Fourth ward, to which
was referred the resolution of Ald. Halpin
providing for the remacadamiriug, curb-
ing and guttering of Bluff street, between
91h and 14th street, would report that lit
our judgment it is unnecessary to make the
improvement proposed as the street is now
in a fairly good condition, and only needs
a little repairing. The laying of sewer
pipe and the improper tilling of the
trenches has caused the surface to be some-
what rough. la our ,judgement, if the sur-
face of the street shall be picket up and
a light coating of macadam put on and
gravelled and rolled, the street will be in
as good condition as if entirely re -im-
proved. The expense will probable not
exceed $50 per block while the cost of renia-
eadanuzing will be some $700 or $800 per
block. We therefore recomtnend that the
resolution be not adopted and the street
commissioner inst.) ucted to repair the
street as indicated in this report.

Also made the following;reporl in relation
to Picket street: On the within petition
in relation to Picket street, 1 would re-
spectfully report that from the examina-
tion 1 have been able to make concerning
the same 1 have come to the con-
clusion that it is a public street 40 feet
in width at its easterly end and 20 feet in
width on the westerly end. 1 have accord-
ingly instructed the city engineer to so
place the curbing on the new Bluff street
improvement as to recognize the street
in question.
From an examination of the abstract it is
apparent that a conflict will arise as to the
rights ot private property owners and the
right of the city to open said street and re-
move buildings and other appurtenances
therefrom. Property owners in the im-
mediate vicinity are especially interested
in the street in question and the city
agrees to lend them any aid in its power
with a view of having said build-
ings removed, The city at the pres-
ent time is not interested in hay -
mg said street opened for public
travel, but at any time when the interested
property owners in the vicinity desire to
move in the premises the city stands ready
to become a party to the proceedings in
t.ourt or otherwise.

which was adopted:
Resolved, That the city engineer be in-
structed to prepare a profile showing the

accordance with section 3 of chapter 25 of
the Revised Ordinances, and submit the
same to the council.
Ald. Smith moved to adjourn to 2 o'clock

AFTERNOON SESSION.
Council met at 2:15 o'clock p. m.
Mayor Saunders in the chair.
Present—Aids. Crawford, Cushing, Fos-
selman, ulab, Page, Peaslee, Smith, Stoltz
and 'I rexler.
The rules were suspended and Mr. T.
J. Donahue, chairman of the committee
appointed by the residents of West hill to
present to the council a metnoiial from
said citizens in relation to the occupancy
of South Dodge street by the Dubuque
Electric Railway, Light and Power Co.,
addressed the council.
The hollowing is the memorial:
Dt'BUQUE, la., Sept. 4, 1891.
Iv'he.eas, The citizens of West 11111 and
vicinity, finding it necessary to adopt
some means of making known their griev-
ances and securing their rights, and to ask
of the city council to take immediate ac-
tion toward our relief, have assembled in
mass meeting this even mg; and
Whereas, The Dubuque Electric Rail-
way, Light and Power Company received
from the city of Dubuque a vaivable fran-
chise to build and operate an electric street
railway on certain streets which included
Dodge and South Dodge streets; and
Whereas, Said company has not com-
plied with their charter in occupying and
operating cars on South Dodge street; and
Whereas, On October 10, 1890, the saul
Dubuque Dlectric Railway, Light and
Power Company were granted an exten-
sion of time to build their line on Dodge
street from old corporation line to South
Dodge street until such nine as said street
had been ordered improved: and
Whereas, On February 2d, 1891, seven
months ago, said Dodge street was ordered
improved; that as yet no start has been
made to lay track on Dodge street although
in accordance with the resolution pre-
sented by themselves and drawn up by
their attorney and adopted by the city
council they were to start as soon as the
street was ordered improved; and
Whereas, The city council did on June
1st, 1891, (lour months atter said Dubuque
Electric Railway, Light and Power com-
pany should have had said line in operation )
by resolution direct the said company to
proceed at once and occupy their right of
way on Dodge street and on South Dodge
street, to which no attention was paid by
said company, also on .luly 6th, 1891, an-
other resolution was adopted unanimously
by the city council, ordering the said Du-
buque Electric Railway, Light a, !'ower
company to occupy their right of way on
Dodge and South Dodge streets under pen-
alty of forfeiture of their charter. This
resolution too was ignored in so far as con-
structing their line is concerned, although
they did present to the council a communi-
cation stating that the grade was too steep
on South Douge street, and that they
would build on Dodge street to South
Dodge street if the resolution of July 6th
were rescinded, but it said resolution was
not recinded they would do nothing. The
council relused to rescind the resolution and
they have so far kept their wont and done
nothing, and we have no car line on Dodge
street from old corporation line to South
Dodge street, nor on South i.odge
street, althouhg if said company
was made to live up to its con-
tract with the city we would have had
street car facilities on both streets for the
past three months. At the present time
and according to the disposition shown by
the officers of said Dubuque Electric Rail-
way, Light and Power company it seems
to us that unless the council takes some
decisive action we will get no railway fa-
cilities on South Dodge street; and
Whereas, The residents of West Hill
and vicinity presented to the city council
a petition signed by over three hundred
taxpayers in that vicinity which asked
that toe said company be compelled to oc-
cupy their right-of-way on South Dodge
street immediately and that no extension
ot time be granted them. This petition
was unanimously adopted by the council
at the August session, and
Whereas, The people on South Dodge
\.It)1.TINED REGULAR SESSION, SEPT. 8T11, 1891. 101
and on the streets in the immediate vicin-
ity have been put to an expense of about
$35,000 and the city has also been put to an
expense of $20,000, in all a total of $55,-
000, with the expectation that the said
company would build their said line on
Sough Dodge street; and
Whereas, The objection made by said
company to build on South Dodge street is
that the grade 10per cent. Is too steep
for theta. The fallacy of this argument is
proved by tie tact that other railway com-
panies using the same horse -power motors
climb grades as high as 15 per cent. and
for longer distances than the 450 feet on
South Dodge street, and at greater dis-
tances from the power house. The records
of the city will show that the grade on
South Dodge street was adopted arior to
the granting of the charter to said com-
pany and there has been no change since
made in the grade; and
Whereas, The said company has
accepted the same, and at the
tune was anxious for the right-
of-way, and now shows a disposition to
avoid occupying the satne, and have been
notified ort different occasions to fulfill
their contract, and have totally ignored
said notice and the constant demands of
the people of West Hill and vicinity.
Therefore, Be it Resolved by the
Cit% Council, That it forfeit all the
street railway rights ot the Dubuque
Electric Railway, Light and Power coin -
Patty and that cars be stopped from run-
ning on said line and that their track be
declared an obstruction to the streets, and
the mayor be directed to see that said
tracks are removed forthwith; provided,
however, that it the said Dubuque Elec-
tric 1tat %ay, Light and Power company
deposit w tilt the city treasurer within three
(3) days the sum of $5,000.00 cash that said
road will be ni operation on Dodge and
South Dodge streets widhin thirty (30)
days from date hereof, then this resolution
to be void, otherwise in full force and ef-
fect.
Be it Further Resolved, 'That a c ,py of
these resolutions be presented to the city
council and that the city tuuncii be re-
quested to adopt the same.
Ald. Smith moved to grant the prayer of
the petition.
Mr. A. Matthews, attorney for the Du-
buque Electric Railway, Light and Power
company, addressed the council to refer-
ence to the matter and also presented a
petition stating that the cotnpany was de-
sirous of completing their line on South
Dodge street. but asked that the grade on

Mayor's Proclamation.
By chapter 45 of the act of the Twenty -
Third i.eneral Assembly ot Iowa a law was
enacted designating the first Monday in
September as a legal holiday to be known
as labor day. The introduction of this
law was intended as a just recognition of
the -toilers of our state. The business
prosperity of our city in the past year is
almost unparalteled in the history of Du-
buque. We have Increased in population,
our laboring people were all employed at
remunerative wages, and our manufac-
tures, jobbers, and other business men, as
a rule, have met with a fair measure of
success.
The prosperity of any people depends
largely upon the condition of the laboring
classes. Reports from all parts of the
state and from the whole ot the great
northwest indicate that the crop
of 1891 will he abundant. With a rich har-
vest and our labor and capital well em-
ployed we can rest assured that the great
master wheel of our business commerce is
sound and in its place. For these bless-
ings we should be profoundly grateful.
In accordance with custom, as mayor of
tliesity, 1 appeal to all the people of Du-
buque to observe this state holiday in a
manner becoming the occasion with the
thought that by so doing those who labor

Your special committee, to whom was
referred the petition of the Dubuque Elec-
tric Railway,Light and Power company in
relation to change of grade of South Dodge
street, would respectfully report that we
have carefully examined said: street with
the city engineer and find that the street
has been unproved in accordance with the
grade established over thirty years ago and
which was the established grade at the
time Allen & Swiney accept(( tie ordinance
for the couatruction of their railway.
While the grade might possibly be better,
vet now that it has been improved at a
great cost to the city and abutting property
owners, we think it inexpedient to attempt
to change it, especially as the Dubuque
Electric Railway, Light and Power com-
pany declines to defray ally portion of the
expenses of the cost of change of grade.
'rhe engineer estimates the cost over $6,-
000. Respectfnlly submitted,

City Attorney McCarthy offered the fol-
lowing report which was adopted:
To the City Council:
G1 TLEMJ;N:—At your adjourned regu-
lar session, held on 'Thursday, the 17,h
inst., 1 was instructed to render to the
council a written opinion as to,
First, whether the city council has the
power to declare forfeited the lranchise of
the Dubuque Electric Railway, Li4ht and
Power company for non-compliance with
its provisions; and,
Second, whether said company had one
year in which to construct and operate its
railway on South Dodge street from the
time said street was brought to the estab-
lished grade by the city.
Concerning the second proposition, 1 am
at a loss to know how to make it any
plainer than by referring the c. uhcil to the
language of the ordinance itself. Section
1 ot the ordinance recites as follows: "Pro-
viced also that said grantees shall not be
required to build its line of railway on
South Dodge street until the city shall
have first brought that portion of said
street on which the grade has been es-
tablished to the estaulished grade."
This paragraph of the ordinance cannot
be construeu to mean anything else than
that the railway shall he constructed when
the street is Drought to grade. No one will
claim that under this provision the road
must be constructed in a day or a week after
the Sireel is graded. The jaw never requires
impossibilities. But the rule is well estab-
lished that where no definite time is fixed in
a contract, a reasonab.e nine is meant. 1
am informed by the city en gineer that the
middle of the street in question was graded
so as to admit of the laying 01 railway
tracks in July last. This statement must be
taken as official and correct since he is the
officer upon whom devolves the duty to in-
dicate the grade line and decide when the
grading is complete. I am unable to con-
strue that, by the ordinance, the 'com-
pany shall stave a year after the street is
graded in which to build its road. I don't
think it is susceptible of any suchconstruc-
tion. It merits that the road shall be con-
structed within a reasonable time alter the
street shall been brought to grade. And
you are the judges of what is meant by
a reasonable time. You must take into
consideration all the facts and circum-
stances, and, in the exercise of an honest
and impartial judgmeht,decide whether the
company had a reasouabie time to build its
road.
You are judges of this, not 1. 1 can
only apply tile rules of law, you must de-
termine the !accts. The law contemplates
that while you are to conserve public in-
terests, at the same time you must jealous-
ly protect private rights that have been
created and encouraged by your legisla-
tion. At your regular session in June you
adopted a resolution requiring toe railway
com
con-
struction of questionany in seline of proceed to
railway onitSouth
Dodge street; a copy of this resolution
was served upon the company. To this
resolution, I think, the company paid
no attention. At your July, 1891, ses-
sion you adopted a resolution rectum; that
the company had failed to comply with its
charter by negt-ctiog to construct its rail-
way on South Dodge street and threaten-
ing to lolled the charter upon neglect or
latlure to so construct its line. A copy of
this resolution a as nerved upon the com-
pany. To this resolution the company re-
spooaed by a communication to the coun-
cil under date ot Aug. 3, 1891, and it, its
coniwunicattou can De construed to mean
anything, it means that the company does
not propose building on South Dodge street
at all.
The company has had ample notice of
the council's intention to forfeit its charter
and, so far as I am advised, has made no
move toward comment ng the construc-
tion of the line in controversy. Upon the
other question whether the council can de-
clare a forfeiture 1 will also quote the
lahgu mge of the ordinance. It is as fol-
lows: "And upon the latlure to comply
with said cohddions said grantees shall
hereby forfeit to the city of Dubuque the
said $10,000 and also their rights under the
ordinance." It is claimed on the part of
the company that the council cannot de-
clare a forfeiture, and that the only
remedy of the city is to go into
court and have the question deter-
mined by judicial proceeding. 1 have ex-
amined the law upon this question with
all the care possible and am unable to
reach a like conclusion. The ordinance
in question is a contract by the terms of
which both the city and the company are
bound. It is in its nature a conditional
contract. That is, the company is to have
no rigts at til unless it complies with the
requirements of its charter. And the city,
when it made the contract referred to, ex-
pressly stated that unless the company
complied with its charter it would thereby
forfeit not only all its rights under the
charter, but 810,000 in money. The inteD-
tton of the law making body is always a
controlling feature in the interpreta-
tion of statutes and ordinances. It
was never the intention to require the
city to go into court and perhaps carry on
expensive and needless litigation fur a long
period of time to determine whether or not
a uorleiture lied taken piece. if such had
been the intehtiou it would be so stated in
the ordnance. Suppose the company had
failed to build its road on Iowa and Jack-
son streets as contemplated by the ordi-
nance must it be ciaimed that the city
must go into court to determine a lorfet-
ture? if a charter had been granted
without any reservation or without
any reference to a forfeiture
then 1 concede a judicial proceeding in a
court of competent jurisdiction might be
necessary. In the case before us, how-
eter, the contract expressly recites that un-
less the company complies with its charter
it thereby forfeits all rights. If the com-
pany has complied with its charter the
council must keep hands off. But the
council are the judges us to whether the
company has compiled with its charter.
As before stated, they are the conservators
of the public welfare, the representatives
of all the people of the city, and the theory
is well understood that the rights of the
public are better
rhe ndinure
speedily
than pro-
moted by council
y
he courts. If you find as a matter
of fact that the company has had a reas-
onable time in which to construct its
178 ADJOURNED PEGULAR,SESSSION. SEPT 21TH, 1891.
line of railway on South Dodge street you
may then pass an ordinance re-
pealing the ordinance heretofore
granted to the so-called Allen & Swiney
company reciting in said ordinance the
facts on which you base your {cause of re-
peal and such other requirements concern-
ing the repealing clause as may be deter-
mined by your committee on ordinances or
the council.
If the city undertakes to do anything
wrong concerning the rights or property 01
the company the courts are open to the
company to stay the hands of the council,
marshal, police or other person that may
wrongfully interfere.
I have undertaken, gentlemen, to answer
your questions and trust 1 have made my-
self plainly understood.
The only apology 1 can express for the
somewhat lengthy opinion is the thought
that important public and private rights
are involved and that your action, if any,
may be guuted by the best light that 1 am
capable of giving. The city council, like
the king, is presumed to do no wrong and
while undertaking to serve the public, the
law contemplates that you should scrut-
inize carefully the private rights of those
whose:property is largely entrusted to your
care.
Respectfully, J. J. MCCAicrur,
City Attorney.

DUBUQUE, la., Oct.. 9th, 1891.
To the Honorable Members of the City
Council:
GENTLEMEN.—At the last session of the
council held Oct. 5th, 1891, upon the report
of the city engineer and street committee,
you allowed Norton & Lee, contractors,
an estimate of 1,581 lineal feet for sewer
constructed on West Locust strreet.
Upon investigation 1 found that the
estimate was erroneous, varying consid-
erable from the contract. L requested the
engineer to make a remeasurement in my
presence, and 1 Lind that the total length is
only 1,281 lineal feet, making a difference
of 300 lineal feet, at $2.74, amounting to
$822.64 more than the contractors are en-
titled to. You will, therefore, please take
such action as in the premises you may
deem proper.

Whereas, More than five years have
elapsed since the issue and date of said

Whereas, It appears to the city council
that a rate of 6 per cent. interest per an-

Dubuque city bonds, and
Whereas, The city, through its council,
believe that new bonds bearing only 5 per
cent. interest can be issued to take the
place of salt "Stocking bonds, and

ought to be made and that the new 5 per

of Dubuque, That the mayor and recorder

able in Dubuque but the interest shall be

mittee and city attorney are hereby in-
structed to prepare blank bunds in the

tric Railway Light and Power Co. for
non-compliance with said charier, and
Whereas, At the session held on No-
vember 2, 1891, action on said ordinance
was postponed for the reason that said

their line on Dodge and South Dodge
street, and it then looked as if the said
company • were in earnest and intended
to comply with their charter, but for the
past three weeks they have been at a
stand -still, and it looks as if they do not in-
tend to operate ihr r cars it they can avoid
it, and
Whereas, it is the desire of the city coun-
cil to give said company all reasonable
time in the operation of said line.
Therefore be it Resolved by the City
Council of the City of Dubuque, That the
said Dubuque Electric Railway, Light &
Power Co. be given ten days further time
