as there is now pending before the
General Assembly of the State of Iowa
a bill for the establishment of a Pub-
lic Service Commission, for the regu-
lation and control of public utilities;
and,
Whereas, the passage of the proposed
measure would deprive municipal cor-
porations of the control of certain pub-
lic utilities.lsuch as water works, and
vest this control in said Commission;
and,
Whereas, the City of Dubuque has
now invested a large sum of money
in its water plant; and,
Whereas, the general, purpose and
object of said proposed act is, in
the opinion of this Council, detri-
mental to the general interests of the
people and particularly of this mu-
nicipality;
Therefore, this Council declares
itself as unfavorable to the objects
of the said bill, as pernicious, tending
to injure the interests of the muni-
cipality, and depriving cities and
towns of the right to exercise that
self-government which they now en-
joy, and which, in many instances,
they themselves can hest exercise to
the greater advantage of their citi-
zens.

Ald. Saul offered the following:
WHEREAS, on account of the re-
moval of its division terminals from
the City of Dubuque, the Chicago
Great Western Railroad Company
now has a tract of about thirty-five
acres of land, lying partly in the city
and partly in Dubuque township
where said division or engine termi-
nals have been located, which it does
not longer require to use in the op-
eration of its railroad, and
WHEREAS, said land was acquired
many years ago by the Dubuque and
Northwestern Railroad for the pur-
pose of being used for terminal and
machine shop purposes and was paid
for out of the proceeds of a tax voted
by the people of the City of Dubuque
in aid of the construction of said rail-
road and said tax was voted and cer-
tain rights of way granted to said
railroad by the City of Dubuque on
the faith of an oral understanding
that terminals of said railroads would
be maintained at this city, and the
said Dubuque and Northwestern Rail-
road by various transfers, consolida-
tions or other intercorporate ar-
rangements has become and now is a
part of the railroad system of the
said Chicago Great Western Railroad
Company, and
WHEREAS, said thirty-five acre
of land is suitable for industrial pur-
poses and the Dubuque Industrial
Corporation ( a corporation organ-
ized and maintained by the citizens of
Dubuque for the purpose of promot-
ing industries therein and generally
stimulating the growth and activities
and best interests of said city) has
arranged for the construction and
maintainance on said tract of land by
the Brunswick-Balke-Collender Com-
pany of a large wood working fac-
tory, which, it is believed will offset
the injury sustained by the City of
Dubuque and its citizens caused by
the removal of, said division termi-
nals, and the citizens of Dubuque -
have, through the efforts of said In-
dustrial Corporation, subscribed a
large fund payable to said Industrial
Corporation, to be expended by it in
part payment of the cost of the fac-
tory buildings to be constructed by
said Brunswick-Balke-Collender Com-
pany on said land, and the said Chi-
cago Great Western Railroad Com-
pany is willing to donate said land
for said purpose and by way of com-
pensation to some extent to the said
City of Dubuque and its citizens for
their loss by reason of the removal
of said division terminals. and an
agreement is now negotiated between

Dubuque, Iowa. March 16, 1911.
To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council of the City of Dubuque,
Iowa.
Gentlemen: Your Committee on
Claims reports that at the October
term of court, 1910, Thomas P.
McLaughlin brought suit against the
City of Dubuque to recover the sum
of Fifteen Thousand Dollars as dam-
ages sustained by him by falling upon
an alleged defective sidewalk on the
easterly side of Couler Avenue, in
front of a brick building known as
No. 2142 Couler Avenue and occu-
pied by the Bassler Shoe Store—the
alk at that point having a number
of bricks out of the walk, leaving a
hole therein. On the 5th day of
April, 1909, McLaughlin stepped into
said hole, causing him to fall, and
as a result of said fall he turned his
ankle, causing a severe sprain of the
ankle and the breaking of a small
bone in the right leg.
The attorneys representing the said
McLaughlin made an offer to adjust
the claim for the sum of Four Hun-
dred Dollars. Believing it to be to
the best interests of the City to ac-
cept the proposition thus made, we
therefore recommend that a settle-
ment be made with said McLaughlin.
upon that basis and that a warrant
be ordered drawn in favor of the
Mayor for that amount, and also a
warrant drawn to cover the court
costs. Respectfully submitted,
