To the Honorable Mayor and City Council of Dubuque: Gentlemen: At the present term of the District Court for this Coun- ty it was deemed advisable by our office to effect settlements in the cases herein named. In making these settlements we are governed by the fact that we believe it to be more advisable to make a fair dis- position of these cases out of court rather than have the facts submit- ted upon trial. We have settled the case .,f Relli- han and Mullen against the City for the sum of $70.00 and costs. This action grew out of an injury to a horse belonging to the plaintiff wne•1 said horse sustained its injury by stepping on a defective grate in the alley between Alpine and Nevada streets. The action was brought to recover $200.00 as damages. We ask that a warrant be drawn in fa- vor of M. C. Matthews, at:.n•n;;_- for plaintiff, in the sum of Q (i.u0 We have also settled the case of George Meyer against the City for the sum of $100. This case was a Personal injury case. Plaintiff fell upon an icy sidewalk on Collier ave- nue, broke his arum and sued the ('ity for $1500.00 damages. You will draw warrant in favor of H. Stuart. attorney for plain.?ff, in the sum of $100.00. We have also settled the case Jf October i6th, 1919 Fred Schmidt against the City for the sum of $400.00 and costs. This was also a personal injury case. Plaintiff fell upon an icy sidewalk on Washington street, broke his hip, was confined for a period of six months or more, sustained perma- nent injury, incurred large indebt- edness, and sued the City for $7,- 500.00. We believe the settlement in this case, in view of the facts and the evidence, to be advantage- ous to the City. We ask that a war- rant be issued to Frantzen, Bonsor and Gilloon, attorneys for plaintiff, in the sum of $400.00. We beg to advise that all of these cases have been settled only after full consideration of the facts and after arriving at the conclusion that a settlement was advisable. We therefore request that you approve our action and have warrants drawn for the various amounts and instruct the treasurer accordingly. Respectfully submitted, M. H. CZIZEK, City Attorney. On motion of Ald. Frith the report of the City Attorney was approved and warrants ordered drawn to cov- er the various amounts. Ald. Frith moved that the Record- er be instructed to draw loan war- rants in the sum of $3,700.00 in fa- vor of the Union Trust & Savings bank to create an emergency fund to take care of the payrolls and bills caused by the flood of October 4th, 1919.

Gentlemen: The following petitions and communications were referred to me by your Honorable Body. The petition of Mrs. Nora Cor- coran Flynn for damages done her property during the rescent floods. Also the petition of H. Feldstein for damages to his property for the same causes. Also the petition of C. W. Dangle- meyer for damages to his property growing of the same floods. I beg to advise you that these are petitions with which our office can not be concerned on account of the fact that they are not legally filed. We therefore return them to you and suggest, if they are to receive any consideration at your hands, that they be referred to the Committee of the Whole. Respectfully submitted, M. W. CZIZEK City Attorney. On motion of Ald. Leist the peti- tions referred to in the report of the City Attorney were referred to the Committee of the Whole to view the grounds. To The Honorable Mayor And Cour: cil Of The City Of Dubuque. Gentelmen: The maintenance bond of the James F. Lee I'aving Company for the improvement of Alpine street was referred to me for examinatio'i and report. I beg to advise you that I have ex- amined said bond and find the same property executed in form and the same may be filed with the record- er. Respectfully submitted, M. W. CZIZEK City Attorney. On motion of Ald. Hird the report of the City Attorney was approved. To The Honorable Mayor And Coun- cil Of The City Of Dubuque. Gentlemen: The petition of Mrs. Alice M. Fengler asking for a re- fund of taxes paid by her on lots one and two of the McCraney's sub- division in the City of Dubuque for the years 1915, 1916, 1917 and 1918, on grounds that she is and has been the widow of a veteran of the Civil War and paid her taxes upon thi3 property which is homestead through mistake and without being allowed her widow's exemption there on, has been referred to me for a report. I beg to advise you that I have carefully considered this petition and I have examined the law touching the facts as related therein. In the first place the petition asks for an exemption for 1915 and 1916 upon the basis of $1800.00. With reference to this I beg to state that during two years the exemption al- 500 Regular Session, November 6th, 1919 lowed to widows of soldiers was fix- ed by the statute at $1500.00 instead of $1800.00 as claimed by petitioner. The exemption for the years 1917 and 1918 is based upon the sum )f $1800.00, because the law changed to that extent in 1917. These would be the exemptions to which this party would have been entitled had she followed the law as provided by sec- tion 1304-I a. which was passed by the 36th General Assembly, in the year 1915. This statute to which I refer provides as follows: "The beniflcary of the exemption allowed by subdivision seven of sec- tion 1304 suplement to the code of 1913, show filed with the assessor a statement under oath that he is own- er of the real property on which such exemption is claimed. Such state- ment shall be returned by the asses- sor to the County Auditor, and, if no such statement be so filed, no exemption shall be allowed by the assessor but may be allowed by the Board of Supervisors if filed before September. 1, of the year for which the same is claimed" This section, when applied to Cities means that any person who desires the exemption allowed by the statute, must sign a sworn state- ment with assessor asking for the exemption, and if no such statement is filed with assessor the exemption should not be allowed. However, any party entitled to th exemption would have the right to have the same allowed by the City Council providing he signed an ap- plication before Sept. 1, of the year for which the same is claimed. As I am advised no claim for exemption was ever made by this petitioner, either of the assessor or the Council. The party simply paid her taxes for those years and is now asking the Council to refund to her such amount as she would have been entitled to had she filed her claim. In view of the fact that all taxatioa statutes must be strictly construed, I am of the opinion that this petition cannot be allowed. The statute is very plain and provides the method of preceedure which must be follow- ed in every instance. Basing my conclusion upon what is herein stat- ed I recommend to your Honorable Body that the petition be received and filed. Respectfully submitted, M. W. CZIZEK City On motion of Ald. Frith thernerep rt of the City Attorney was approved. Report of City Attorney. The Honorable Mayor And City Council For The City Of Dubuque. Hereto attached are statements from the Clerk of the District Court showing the costs in the following cases: Fred Schmids vs City of Dubuque $ 8.95. Rellihan and Mullen vs. City of Dubuque $14.35. Helen Meehan Etal vs City of Dubuque $11.50. Making a total of $34.80. Kindly order a warrant drawn in favor of M. J. Grace, Clerk of the District Court for the amount and instruct the treasurer accordingly. Respectfully submitted, M. W. CZIZEK City Attorney. On motion of Ald. Leist the report of the City Attorney was approved and the Recorder instructed to draw a warrant to cover the same, To the Honorable Mayor and City Council. Gentlemen: On the 21st day of October, 1918, Mary Handley fell at the corner of Bluff and Emmett streets, breaking her left arm. The accident occurred under circum- stances which would render the City liable in damages. During my inter- view with Mrs, Handley, I advised her that if she did not start suit against the City, that we would pay her doctor bill which is $35.00. By allowing her this amount it will save the city of Dubuque the expense of litigation which in all probability would be many times in excess of this amount. I therefore recommend to your Honorable Body that a warrant be drawn in favor of Mrs. Handley, fol $35.00 in full settlement of any and all claims that she may have against the City of Dubuque for injuries re- ceived by her on or about the 21st day of October, 1919.

Palen 10 00 Board of Health, City Hall, City: Dear Sirs: Enclosed find a copy of a resolution which was passed by the Dubuque County Medical Society at its regular meeting Tuesday, Oc- tober 1.4th, 1919. We trust that you will be able to find a way to assist in taking care of this class of unfor- tunates. Yours truly, J. M. WALKER, M. D. President of the Dubuque County Medical Society. We, the members of your commit- tee on the Harrison law, submit the following: We, the members of the Dubuque County Medical Society believe in the Harrison law as far as it per- tains to those who cE. n do without opium or any of its derivitives, and we will do all in our power to help reduce this growing evil. However, we still maintain that the morphine addict is a dangerous man in the community when it is entirely taken away from him. We also believe that the morphine addict is a sick man physically and mentally, and that there is no known drug that will take its place without producing conditions as bad or even worse than the one for which he is being treated. These men are mor- ally and physically deflcient, and are dangerous to life and property. We therefore ask the authorities to assist us in every way in taking care of these people. By this we mean, if they are allowed to roam around, they should be given enough morphine to keep them from being criminals, and we do insist that, if this law is to be followed as enact- ed, the authorities when called up- 502' Regular Session, November 6th, 1919 on, will have to provide a place of residence, transportation and care for the patient. We therefore demand that the City Board of Health or County Board of Supervisors be notified in writing of action of the society and that they appoint either City or County Physicians as they may see fit to administer and to care for these patients whenever called upon to do so.

Lacy as fol- lows: I beg to call your attention to my petition to you dated and filed July 23, 1919, stating the facts with regard to the erroneous and illegal increase in the assessment of the South 147 feet of the west half of City Lot 746 belonging to me. This petition was referred to the City At- torney and he reported with regard to same, that the prayer of the peti- tion should be granted if the record kept by the City Auditor showed that no notice had been given to me of the increase in the assessment. This report was adopted by you on October 2, 1919, and the matter re- ferred, as I understand, to the City Auditor for a report but in spite of the fact that no notice was actually given me and that the Auditors rec- ord does not show any notice to have been given to me, said petition was, as I understand, ordered by your Honorable Body to be re:eived and filed and in consequence the Treasurer of said city threatens to sell the said property for the collec- tion of the tax upon the illegally increased valuation or assessment and has advertised the same for sale for the sum of $302.12 tax and inter- est and costs amounting to $24.61. $210.00 of this amount, I admit to be due and rlid the sme before it became delinquent, to -wit, on Janu- ary 31, 1919. The balance, which including interest and costs amounts to $116.73, is erroneously and illegal- ly exacted and was paid by me under protest and under compulsion on November 21, 1919. Wherefore I hereby request you by virtue of sec- tion 24, page 176 of the Revised Or- dinances of 1902 to direct the Treas- urer to refund to me said amount of $116.73 and hereby respectfully notify you of my intention, in case said refund is not promptly made to bring action in the District Court for the recovery of said amount so erroneously and illegally exacted and paid. Presented and read. On motion of Ald. Hird the petition was referred to the City Auditor to re- port to the Council. Petition of Frank R. Lacy, Burritt S. Lacy and Olive W. Lacy, by F. R. Lacy as follows:—The undersign- ed, Frank R. Lacy, Burrett S. Lacy and Olive W. Lacy hereby request you to direct the Treasurer of said City to refund to them the sum of $106.07 being taxes erroneously and illegally exacted from and paid by them including interest and costs thereon, the said amount having been paid them under protest and under compulsion of the said Treas- urer's threats to sell real property owned by them for the collection of said taxes. Special Session, November 24th, 1919 The respective descriptions of the pieces of real property and the amount of taxes included in said sum for which the same have re- spectively been threatened to be sold and advertised for sale are as follows; The S. 10 inches of City Lot 77, City Lot 7a, the N. 2% feet and the S. 19 1-2 feet of the north 22 feet of City Lot 78, $25.79. The undivided half of Mineral Lots 299 and 298, $5.70. Mineral Lot 300, $38.31. Mineral Lot 300 for personal pro- perty tax assessed against May R. Lacy $36.27. We refer to our petition to your honorable body dated and filed 23 July, 1919, for the reasons why said amount of taxes is erroneously and illegal and therefore ought to be refunded. The amount above stat- ed of which refund is claimed is the amount assessed against said pro- perty for which said property is to be sold over and above the amount stated to have been paid in said petition. With regard to the personal pro- perty tax against the estate of May R. Lacy above mentioned which was not referred to in the aforesaid pet- ition we say that the said May R. Lacy died on July 28, 1917 and the said assessment was made against her as of January 1, 1918 and that on that date and prior thereto and ever since, all of the said property and in particular, mineral lot 300, was owned by and the property of the undersigned. That said assess- ment therefore evidently could not and can not be a lien on said miner- al lot 300 or the other property of the undrsigned and the said Treas- urer and the said City have no right to sell the same for the collection of said tax. We further state that the tax is illegal, null and void for the reason that it is a personal property tax assessed against a person not then living and assessed without the notice required by law to her ex- ecutor or to any other person. We further respectfully notify you of our intention, in case said refund is not promptly made, to bring action against the City to recover the said amount. Presented and read. On motion of Ald. Hird the first part of the petition was referred to the City Auditor to report to the Council, and the last part of the petition was received and filed.

City Engineer Cullen submitted the following part of a communica- tion sent to him from the Chicago Paving Labaratory: Replying to yours of December 2nd relative to Grandview avenue bitulithic pave- ment, we note that the Council has granted Mr. Lee an extension of time to complete the first section of the work. If the work were to be laid on a concrete base we would not hesitate to say that undoubtedly there will be enough suitable weath- er between now and January first to enable the contractor to lay the top. However, as this work is on ma- cadam, we are very dubious as to the outcome of any such attempt. Work over macadam is very unsatisfactory during the early spring, late fall and early winter. We have had a great deal of experience along this line, with the result that we find that it is a good general rule to close down such work when the weather be- comes wet and cold. The writer has seen several very unsatisfactory jobs of this sort which were laid over frozen macadam base. When the base thaws in the spring and the street is under traffic you will find that the wearing surface becomes wavy and full of depressions. The above is true even when work is laid over old macadam, as increase in volume depending upon the percent- age of saturation of the macadam at the time of the freezing. We note that you say the contractor will at- tempt to complete this work at his own risk and that in such an event you will place a man on the work who will forward reports to us. In this connection, we might suggest that if the contractor continues the work at his own risk we can see no vital need of inspection. However, we will be glad to look over the re- ports in case you care to send them to us, but we certainly do not feel like assuming any responsibility for Regular Session, December 4th, 1919 585 work laid under these circucm- stances.

To the Honorable Mayor and Coun- citl of the City of Dubuque: Gentleemn: The petition of An- drew Ruh asking for the cancellation of an assessment which was levied against him for the improvement of Delhi street was referred to me for investigation and report. This as- sessment has been placed upon a strip of ground which divides his property from the Delhi street en- gine house and is used as an alley- way or driveway by the city in con- nection with the engine house. I find that in the meeting of the council on July 21, 1904, as shown on page 168 of the council records that a deed of half of this alley was given to the city by Ruh to be used as a driveway by the city and making provision that such property should not be assessed for taxation against him, either in general or special taxes. The amount of the tax with interest at the time is about twelve ($12.00) dollars. In view of the cir- cumstances I would recommend that the treasurer be instructed to can- cel this tax against Mr. Ruh and the city assume the payment thereof and his record corrected accordingly. Respectfully submitted, M. H. CZIZEK, City Attorney. On motion of Ald. Least the report of the City Attorney was approved. To the Honorable Mayor and Coun- cil of the City of Dubuque. Gentlemen: There is a matter of serious moment to which I would like to call your attention. We are fully aware that as time goes on and the farther we get into winter the more serious will become the pres- ent fuel condition. The middle western states will feel the pinch of a famine quicker and longer than those states which are closer to the coal fields. We know from what we have heard from the Fuel Adminis- tration, and as a matter of fact it is a thing of common knowledge, that no matter when the coal miners re- turn to work it will take months per- haps for normal distribution of coal to be accomplished. For that rea- son it seems to me that if anything can be done by this Council to less- en as far as possible, suffering among our people we should endeav- or to do so. With this thought in mind let me present to you a sug- gestion. It may be considered of no worth by you and yet I feel that by adopting it a forward step would be taken on behalf of our people. My idea is that the city establish a Municipal Wood Yard and have the same regulated under proper rules and restrictions. I believe there is sufficient fire wood in the immediate vicinity of this city to supply all waste. My scheme would be to advertise for bids for cord wood and let the bids state the kind of wood to be furnished, the amount that could be furnished and the price delivered in Dubuque. When the wood is purchased by the city have it piled upon city property under the control and protection of the Market Master, or some suitable person. That the wood be sold in limited quantities to people of Dubuque upon requisition being made to the city clerk, who will be required to keep record thereof. That the wood be sold at cost price and the money secured therefrom to be turned into the treasury credited to the general fund from which it has been taken. The plan of distribution and so forth can be changed in any manner that you would see fit or any of the details properly worked up. But my idea is that we owe it to the people of Dubuque, and especially those who will feel the pinch of necessity the hardest within the next few months, to do something for them if it lays within our power to do so. For that reason I have suggested the establishment of a Municipal Wood Yard. I trust you will give this matter some consideration and if possible put the idea into practice. This is not entirely an experiment because other places last year es- tablished similar coal yards and the result was satisfactory. I hope your earliest consideration will be given to this matter. Sincerely yours, M. H. CZIZEK, City Attorne.y On motion of Ald. Hird the com- munication of the City Attorney was referred to the Committee of the Whole. Regular Session, December 4th, 1919 Ald.

This means that any examinations which she will snake will be regarded as official by the State Board of Health. This is of special importance in connection with release of quarantine for diph- theria as it will mean the saving of a great deal of time, Inasmuch as there are no state funds to pay Dr. Hesselberg for doing this kind of work, it will be necessary for her to receive either directly from the phy- sicians that submit specimens to her or from the local Board of Health. It is the universal experience that it is very much more satisfactory and of course entirely proper, and in- deed very desirable, to have Board of Health laboratory examinations paid for by the Board of Health rath- er than to have them charged to the patients, many of whom are being kept in quarantine in the interest of the public health. I would, therefore, urge that you confer with the mayor of your city and Dr. Hesselberg with the idea of seeing if a satisfactory arrangement cannot be made to have her receive her compensation from the local Board of Health, was pre- sented and read.

To the Honorable Mayor and City Council: Gentlemen:—I would respectfully recommend that instead of cleaning out the present sewer crossing Rush street in front of the Fitzpatrick property that I be permitted to in- stall an 18 inch pipe four feet below the surface of the street. My reason for this recommendation is that the present sewer is 13 to 14 feet below 600 Special Session, December 8th, 1919 the street and it will be an expensive undertaking to complete it and clean it out and an 18 inch pipe will an- swer the purpose. Respectfully, JOHN SCHROMEN, Street Commissioner. On motion of Ald. Plamondon the report of the street commissioner was approved. Your Committee on Sewers would respectfully report that we have ex- amined the sanitary sewer construct- ed in Lawther avenue from the man- hole at Sheridan street and Lawther avenue to a point 410 feet east and would recommend that it be accept- ed, G. L. Korman, contractor. We further recommend that the city engineer be and he is hereby instructed to prepare a special as- sessment against the lots or parcels of real estate subject to assessment for said improvement and file the same in the office of the City Re- corder who will thereupon publish the notice of said assessment as re- quired by ordinance.

To the Honorable Mayor and Mem- bers of the City Council: Gentlemen: Your City Assessor to whom was referred the petition of Mrs. John Appel, relative to having interest cancelled against her property known as Lot 1 of the Sub. of M. L. 43 and Lot 2 of the Sub. of M. L. 44, for the years 1916, 1917 and 1918. Would respectfully report that I find that the above mentioned pro- perty, was carried under the name of Oppel since 1915, should of been carried on the tax books under the name of Appel, Therefore the Appel Est. most likely overlooked paying the taxes on the above mentioned Lots, they being assessed to John Oppel. Sr., instead of John Alone:. Sr., as all their other property was carried under the name of John Appel, Sr., for the above mentioned years, which they always paid. Respectfully submitted, PETER J. RIES, City Assessor. Ald. Strobel moved that the Treas- urer be instructed to accept the tax less the penalty. Ald. Burch " amended Ald.

Therefore, school property being exempt, the petition should be granted. Respectfully submitted, PETER J. KIES, City Assessor. On motion of Ald. Leist the report of the City Assessor was approved. To the honorable mayor and council of the city of Dubuque. Gentlemen: A petition signed by the Veterans of the Civil War living in Dubuque as for exemption has been referred to me for report. Upon an examina- tion of the petition I find that the facts therein stated present the matter clearly, the only question which arises is the construction of an act of the legislature which was recently past. Prior to the last legislature old Soldiers received a tax exemption of $1800.00 and this exemption was figured on the actual value of their property. The last legislature however chang- ed this law and provided a tax exemption of $700.00 upon the tax- able value of property, instead of tax actual value. The rule of assess- ing property for taxation purposes is that one-fourth of the actual value be taken as the taxable value thereof. With this rule in mind you can see that it was the intention of the legislature to increase a soldiers' exemption from $1,800 to $2,800, be- cause where before the exemption 4 adjourned Regular Session, January 2, 1920 was figured actual value now it Is figured on taxable value. So that where an old soldier received an ex- emption before of one-fourth of $1,800 or $450 exemption 'now he re- ceives an exemption of $700, which exemption is to be applied upon the taxable value of his property. Fig- uring it on the actual value of the property you see it is an increase from $1,800 a year to $2,800 a year. This increased exemption is easily applied in the county outside of the city of Dubuque and there isn't any question that for county taxes an old soldier receives an exemption of what would amount to $2,800 upon the actual value of his property. But in the city of Dubuque a peculiar condition exists. The city of Du- buque, being a special charter city, for taxation purposes takes the actual value of property as its tax- able value, in other words the actual value and taxable value are the same. While the law intended to grant an increase in exemption to old soldiers, in the city of Dubuque it works just the other way, and in- stead of giving an increase it re- duces the exemption from $1,800 to $700. This is really an unfortunate condition of the law but we must take the law as it is written. In actual operation it means that an old soldier living in Burlington re- ceives a $2,800 tax exemption be- cause property is assessed upon one- fourth of its actual value, while in Dubuque an old soldier gets a tax exemption of $700, because the tax- able value of his property is the same as its actual value. This is manifestly unfair and there isn't any question but what the legislature did not intend this condition to arise. On the contrary it intender[ to grant a uniform increase in old soldiers' tax exemption. The law is clear as to what was intended and if you follow the lan- guage of the statute the exemption must be fixed at $700, which is $1,100 less than it was lst year and $2,100 less than it is in practically every other taxing district in the state, of course you did not make the law and cannot be held responsi- ble for an error of those who did and if you stand upon the law the petition must be denied. If, however, you feel that the ex- emption should be granted, as clearly intended by the legislature I do not believe that any serious question will be raised becauses a strict construction of the law pro- duces unfair inequality among per- sons in similar circumstances. It is a natter for you to determine. I have tried to explain the law to you and tax operation would leave the matter of ultimate decision with you. Respectfully submitted, ivl. H. CZIZEK, City Attorney. On motion of Ald. Andresen the report of the City Attorney was re- ferred to the Committee of the Whole. To the Honorable Mayor and Coun- cil of the City of Dubuque. Gentlemen: A petition of the Vet- erans of the Spanish-American war asking for soldiers' exemption has been referred to ine for report. As I have reported my conclusions upon the law providing for soldiers' ex- emption as passed by the last legis- lature in so far as it applies to vet- erans of the Civil War. I do not believe it necessary to go into detail in this report, as the law applies with like effort to veterans of the Spanish-American war. I refer you, therefore, to my opinion in that case and suggest that whatever ac- tion you take with reference to the Civil War veterans you take also with reference to the Spanish- American War veterans. I might add that the Spanish American War veterans are given an increase in exemption from $500 to $1,200, whereas in the city of Dubuque it would mean not an increase but a reduction from $500 to $300. Respectfully submitted, M. H. CZIZEK, City Attorney. On motion of Ald. Andresen the report of the City Attorney was re- ferred to the Committee of the Whole. To the Honorable Mayor and Coun- cil of the City of Dubuque: Gentlemen: As you know many of the property owners living along West Third street took appeals from the special assessment which was levied against their property for the payment of said improvement. Among those who appealed was the Archdiocese of Dubuque and James J. Keane, Archbishop of Dubuque. Later on your Honorable Body made an order that the assessment for said improvement be reduced 30 per cent and everybody subject to the assess- ment was given the benefit of such reduction. Among the property which was assessed for said improve- ment was the property which is known as the Old Cemetery and which lies on the south side of said street and is away above some 40 or 50 feet of the street proper and derives little apparent benefit from such improvement, two lots of which from this cemetery property were assessed for this improve- ment, one in the sum of $1,793.66 and the other $1,174.25. I think you will Adjourned Regular Session, January 2, 1920 5 agree with me that these lots do not receive benefits to the extent of the assessments. Some time ago you adjusted some assessments on this street where actions were pending in court and the basis of settlement effected with those parties was that they pay on 25 per cent of the value of their property, which assessments were deemed satisfactory and equitable and were settled in that manner. Be- lieving that a similar settlement should be made in the cases to which I have referred I have agreed to settle them according to the stip- ulation which is hereto attached and made a part hereof and which ex- plains itself. According to this stip- ulation the cemetery property will pay one-fourth of the amount of the assessment and the other property will pay the assessment in full, less of course, the amount of the reduc- tion previously granted to all par- ties. Trusting this matter meets with your approval and believing that a fair adjustment has been made I trust this report will be favorably considered by you. Your attention is drawn there to the stipulation which is attached to this report and which I request that you make matter of record if the report is ap- proved, and the city treasurer be in- structed to correct his assessments accordingly and accept the various amounts agreed upon in the stipula- tion. Respectfully submitted, M. H. CZIZEK, City Attorney. On motion of Ald. Frith the report of the City Attorney was referred to the Committee of the Whole. To the Honorable Mayor and Coun- cil of the City of Dubuque: Gentlemen: A matter has been called to my attention which I think should receive consideration from you. On October 27th, 1916, one Car- oline R. Hefner became the owner of lots numbers 495 and 401, Ham's addition to the city of Dubuque. Lot 495 abuts Lincoln avenue and 401 abuts Rhomberg avenue. Street as- sessments had been previously levied for the improvement of Lin- coln and Rhomberg avenues. On November 29th, 1916, Mrs. Hafner paid certain street assessments on what she supposed were the above named lots. It has just been discov- ered, however, that through some er- ror the treasurer's records' show that what she paid was applied on lots 495 and 496, both of which abut Lin- coln avenue, and no portion of what she paid was applied upon lot 401 as she intended it should apply, for the improvement of Rhomberg ave- nue. Lot 496 has never been owned by Mrs. Hafner, but in the time of f payment and at the present time it is the property of Christ. Braun. As the matter now stands, the assess- ment upon lot 401 is not paid, al- though Mrs. Hafner intended to pay it, and the assessment upon 496 has been paid although the payment was not intended to be paid by Mrs. Haf- ner, since she did not own this lot. Lot 401 has been advertised for sale for the street assessment, although Mrs. Hafner believed all along that this assessment had been paid. Under these conditions you can readily see that an error has been made and I would advise you that you instruct the treasurer to apply the amount of money that Mrs. Haf- ner paid upon lot 496 upon lot 401 and have his records show the date of payment to be the same date when she made payment which was applied upon lot 496, namely, Novem- ber 29, 1916, and if she has paid more than the assessment against 401 a refund to that extent should be ordered by having a warrant is- sued to her in such an amount. With reference to lot 496 the treas- urer's records should be also cor- rected so as to show that this as- sessment is unpaid and Mr. Braun should be notified to pay the same or the lot advertised for sale. This is purely an error and one that you have the right to correct, and I sincerely trust you will do so in order that no injustice be done to Mrs. Hafner. Respectfully submitted, M. H. CZIZEK, City Attorney. On motion of Ald. Leist the report of the City Attorney was approved and the Treasurer to be instructed accordingly. To the Honorable Mayor and Coun- cil of the City of Dubuque. Gentlemen: The claim of Magda- lene Pier against the city of Du- buque for $810.18 has been referred by your honorable body for report. This claim is based upon an instru- ment which is called a bond of the city of Dubuque and its principal for $112.80, and the number of the bond is 210. The bond was orig- inally sold by the city to John Kolb in the year 1858 and later beame the property of Magdalene Pier tnrough her father, John Pier. The bond bears interest at the rate of 10 per ent per annum payable an- nually at the office of the treasurer and became due on or before the 20th day of February, 1859. It is evident from this that this bond is 50 years old and past due for that length of time. Miss Pier is asking the city to pay her upon this bond the prin- cipal thereof and the interest for Adjourned Regular Session, January 2, 1920 all these years, making a total of $ 810.18. I beg to advise you that I have consulted with the treasurer and we find from his records that this bond has been considered outlawed or otherwise non -collectable for a good many years and it is so marked upon his records. We further find that this bond has not been refund- ed in the regular refunding issues. It is, of course, true that this instru- ment is barred by the statute of limitations and no legal liability rests upon the city to make pay- ment to this petitioner. However, in considering what your final action shall be it is well to bear in mind that it is always inadvisable for the city to repudiate just obligations such as this bond was at one time, and while there is no legal objection resting upon you to order the bond paid, settlement of the matter might be made by acceptance of some moral obligation, it may be well to consider. If you should decide, however, to pay any part of this bond I would advise you that you do not pay more than the principal and one year's interest thereon because it was the duty of the holder of the bond to present it for payment when due and he was himself guilty of laches in not doing so. I have tried to lay the matter be- fore you plainly so that you may act intelligently regarding the same. Respectfully submitted, M. H. CZIZEK, City Attorney. On motion of Ald. Frith the report of the City Attorney was referred to the Committee of the Whole. Ald. Frith moved that the action of the Council earlier in the even- ing relative to the report of the City Assessor on the petition of the Ind.

Strobel the fol- lowing Weighmaster's report was made a matter of record: Key City Roofing Co $1.91 To the Honorable Mayor and Coun- cil of the City of Dubuque: Gentlemen: At the present term of court the case of Hilby vs. City of Dubuque, equity, all set for trail, this case was an appeal from a special assessment levied for the improvement of Kaufmann avenue. The property which was assessed for said improvement is described as fol- lows: Mineral Lot 342. Lot 1 of 2 of Mineral Lot 344. Lot 3 of Burton's addition. The first lot was assessed for $501.27, the second lot for $33.37 and the third lot $47.57 Mineral Lot 342 which was assessed for $501.27 is carried upon the assessment rolls at a valuation of $1,200.00. From this it is evident that the assessment was too high and in an appeal case it would be reduced to about $300.00. The total amount of the assessment is $582.21. The plaintiff agrees to pay the city $482.21 in full settle- ment of the assessment. This pay- ment is $100.00 less than the total assessment but $100.00 more than I believe the court would fix as a 30 Regular Session, January 15th, 1920 proper assessment. For that reason I have agreed to accept the sum of $482.21 in full settlement of such as- sessments, subject to your approval. The plaintiff will pay the costs. 1 trust you will approve of my action and instruct the Treasurer to accept the sum of $482.21 in full payment of the assessment upon these lots.

Dear sir: The law says that Span- ish influenza shall be quarantined and I am enclosing in this letter a circular and you will note under the heading "How to recognize Influ- enza and What to do" the symptoms which should be used to diagnose Spanish influenza are given under the above heading. Under the law you cannot quaran- tine LaGrippe as, such, but the physician may call the disease La - Grippe when it is really Spanish in- fluenza. Tell your physicians not to call Spanish influenza anything else than Spanish influenza, and I have given the symptoms in a con- cise manner on this poster, and you can have a quantity of these posters if you will write me for them. I sent a quantity to the secretary of your commercial club and also to Senatoir Horschem some days ago. Will be glad to help you further if I can do so. I am enclosing the law relating to quarantine.

To the Honorable Mayor and Coun- cil of the City of Dubuque. Gentlemen: Some time ago you Regular Session, February 5th, 1920 59 instructed me to prepare an amend- ment to the traffic ordinance pro- hibiting heavy traffic on Main street. I beg to advise you that there is such a provision already contained in our traffic ordinance the same be- ing Section 19, which reads as fol- lows: "Section 19. No vehicle shall stop or stand within street intersections and no vehicle engaged in heavy traffic, such as, hauling ice, coal, wood and freight of all kinds, shall we driven on Main street from First street to Seventeenth street, unless necessary to load or unload in said street." From this you will see that ample provision is made prohibiting heavy traffic on Main street. This traffic should be kept off of Main street if the street is to be preserved, and i would suggest that you call the at- tention of the Police Department to this provision and ask them to en force it. On motion of Ald. Andresen, the report of the City Attorney was ap- proved and the Chief of Police to be instructed accordingly. Respectfully yours, M. H. CZIZEK, City Attorney. February 5, 1920. To the Honorable Mayor and Coun- cil of the City of Dubuque. Gentlemen: The statements of the Dubuque National Bank, The Citi- zens State Bank and First National Bank, relating to tax exemption on account of United States securities have been referred to me for a re- port. I beg to advise you that I have checked these statements over carefully and make the following re- port and recommendation thereon: With reference to the Dubuque Na- tional Bank I find that said bank on January 1, 1919, had taxable prop- erty to the extent of $76,800.00; this is indicated by their return. Under the law this bank is entitled to re- duce its taxable property by the amount of United States Government securities which were issued during the war with Germany and which were held in good faith by the bank more than sixty (60) days prior to January 1, 1919. I find from the statement of this bank that October 31, 1919, said bank had U. S. LibertY bonds amounting to $112,550.00 and cretificates of indebtedness to the extent of $150,000.00. These two items make a total of $262,550.00. They are entitled to exemption upon this amount. Since, however, this amount is greater than their total taxable property, this bank is re- lieved entirely from the, payment of any taxes. However, this does not include the tax upon their real estate and the assessor and treasurer should be so advised. Their real estate must pay its taxes the same as any other real estate. With reference to the First Na- tional Bank I find that the total value; of the taxable property, in- cluding capital, surplus and undivid- ed earnings on January 1, 1919, was 401,818.10. It appears from the statement furnished by this Bank that it owns securities of the United States Government during its war with Germany amounting to $3i6,- 987.50. This amount is exempt and should be deducted from the amount of the total assessed value and the balance distributed among the stock- holders as required by law. This, too, does not include real estate ,which must be separately assessed. With reference to the Citizens State Bank I find that its capital, surplus and undivided earnings amount to $201,105.09 and its exempt securities amount to $114,558.08. The differ- ence between these amounts should be assessed as required by law and the assessor and treasurer instructed accordingly. For your information and reference the statements which I based my conclusions on are hereto attached and made part of this report. As the law stands today the exemptions provided for herein must be grant- ed so that nothing can be gained by litigating the question. Trusting you have the information you requested of me and if this re- port meets your approval you can - instruct the assessor and treasurer to figure the taxes upon the basis herein pointed out. Respectfully yours, M. H. CZIZEK, City Attorney. On motion of Ald. Hird the .rec- ommendation of the City Attorney was approved, the Treasurer and Assessor to be instructed accord- ingly. February 5, 1920. To the Honorable Mayor and Coun- Cil of the City of Dubuque. Gentlemen: Hereto attached and returned find the bond of Michael O'Donnell, plumbing instructor, which was referred to be for exam- ination and report. I beg to advise you that I find the bond regular in form and it may be pleated on file. Respectfully submitted, M. H. CZIZEK, City Attortney. On motion of Ald. Hird the report of the City Attorney was approved. To the Honorable Mayor and Coun- cil of the City of Dubuque. Gentlemen: Mrs. Emma Heller of 81 Chestnut street fell on Chestnut street in front of property owned 60 Regular Session, February 5th, 1920 by one Mr. Provost and sustaineda fracture of her left arm in three dif- ferent places. The injury occurred on January 13th. I have investiga,- ed this case, and while no claim has been filed I feel that a settle- ment should be made at this time. recommend that you allow Mrs. Hell- er the sum of $50.00 in full of any claim she might have growing out of her injury and I shall secure her release if this settlement is satis- factory to you. If you are satisfied to settle this claim for that amount kindly have a warrant drawn in favor of Emma Heller in the sum of $50.00 and in- struct the Treasurer accordingly. Respectfully submitted, M. H. CZIZEK, City Attorney. On motion of Ald. Hird the report of the City Attorney was approved and the Recorder instructed to draw a warrant to cover the amount. February 5, 1920. To the Honorable Mayor and Coun- cil of the city of Dubuque.

CZIZEK, City Attorney. On motion of Ald. Leist the report of the City Attorney was approved and the Recorder instructed to draw a warrant to cover the same. February 5, 1920. Gentlemen: Hereto attached and submitted for your approval is an amendment to our plumbing ordi- nance and I ask that it be passed lay you. The amendment has to do with the bond required of the plumb- ers and is intended to cover the con- nection with water pipes from the main to the building. This amend- ment is important in order that the Water Company be protected by a bond without requiring an extra bond from the plumbers. Respectfully yours, M. H. CZIZEK, City Attorney.

Dubuque, Ia., Feb. 5, 1920. To the Honorable Mayor and City Council. Gentlemen: Relative to the at- tached petition for W. J. Burns for the special assessment levied against City Lot 4 for the improve- ment of Main street I beg to report that in compiling the special assess- ment against City Lot 4 all maps and plats in the office of the City Engineer show City Lot with a frontage of 28 feet, same frontage as used in compiling the Main street special assessment. Upon the receipt of this petition, which was referred to me at the last meeting of your Honorable Body, I find upon investigation on the original plat at the County Court House that this lot has a frontage of only 24 feet. I re- spectfully recommend that the City Treasurer be instructed to alter the special assessment against City Lot 4 owned by W. J. Burns from the original amount of $161.29 to $138.27.

Gentlemen: Please have your City Treasurer instructed to cancel the tax assessed against Lot 31, Oxford Heights Add., valuation $850.00, as- sessed to James Alderson, for the 1919 tax, as this is a double assess- ment, the above mentioned Lot, is also assessed to G. M. Orvis for the year 1919, where it rightfully be- longs, therefore the tax on the above mentioned Lot, assessed to James Alderson for the year 1919, should be cancelled, as this is a double as- sessment. Respectfully Submitted, PETER J. KIES, City Assessor. On motion of Ald. Leist the report of the City Assessor was approved. Dubuque, Iowa, Jan. 23rd. To the Honorable Mayor and Mem- ers of the City Council: Gentlemen: Your City Assessor to whom was referred the petition of A. R. Staufenbeil, relative to hav- ing his taxes corrected for the 1919 tax, on the East 1/2 of Lots 46, 47, 48 and 49 in Cox's Add. Would respectfully report that 1 have examined said petition, and find that the valuation placed on the above mentioned Lots in 1914 was 62 Regular Session, February 5th, 1920 $4,800.00 just as he states in his pe- tition, also find that he paid his taxes on a valuation of $4,800.00 for the 1914, 1915 and 1916 taxes, in 1917 the above mentioned Lots were car- ried for a valuation of $5,260.00 which taxes he paid, also find that. the East '/z of Lot 47, Cox's Add., was assessed to two parties in 1917, it was assessed to A. R. Staufenbeil, where it rightfully belonged, also as- sessed to Jonah Scherer for a valua- tion of $770.00 for the 1917 tax, which was an error, the assessment against Jonah Scherer for the above mentioned Lot has since been can- celled by the City Council, which was correct, as A. R. Staufenbeil paid the 1917 taxes on the above mentioned Lot, in 1918 the valuation carried against the above mentioned Lots was $6,030.00, and I find that the valuation carried against Scherer in 1917, amount $770.00, was added to the Staufenbeil assessment, which valuation should not have beeen add- ed to the Staufenbeil assessment, as there was no valuation taken away from the Staufenbeil assessment in 1917,.when the double assessment was made in 1917, on the East 1 of Lot 47, in Cox's Add., therefore the 1918 valuation on the above men- tioned Lots was increased from $5,- 260.00 5:260.00 valuation in 1917 to $6,030.00 valuation for the 1918 tax, which valuation Mr. Staufenbeil paid his 1918 tax on. In 1919 the valuation $6,030.00 was again carried against the above mentioned lots which he asks to have corrected, also find that the only improvement made on the above mentioned lots was eh painted his house in 1917 which we do not carry as improvement. Respectfully Submitted, PETER J. KIES, City Asssessor. On motion of Ald. Frith the report of the City Assessor was approved. Dubuque, Iowa, Jan. 20th. To the Honorable Mayor and Mem- bers of the City Council: Gentlemen: Your City Assessor to whom was referred the petition of Carl G. Hille, relative to being allowed a soldier's exemption on his 1919 taxes, would respectfully report that I have examined the petition of Carl G. Hille, and find that the facts as stated in his petition are true and correct, he being the owner of the N. 34 feet of Lot 72, and Lot 2 of the Sub. 71, L. H. Langworthy's Add. Therefore if the law so states that a soldier or sailor is exempt from taxes while in the service of the U. S. Army, I would respectfully recom- mend that the prayer of the petition- er be granted.

To the Honorable Mayor and City Council: Gentlemen: I return herewith the petition of Anna K. Fuchs, which was referred to our office. I find that for the year 1913 that the North 1-2 of the South 1-5 of Outlot 492 was erroneously assessed as the North 1-5 of Outlot 492. I also find that the City of Dubuque collected the full taxes for the year of 1913, upon the block in which said lot is located, that is the taxes on the North 1-5 were paid twice. I there- fore recommend that the city taxes for the year of 1913 on the North 1-2 of the South 1-5 of Outlot 492 be cancelled. Respectfully submitted, M. D. COONEY, Assistant City Attorney. On motion of Ald. Hird the report of the Asst. City Attorney was ap- proved. To the Honorable Mayor and Coun- cil of the City of Dubuque: Gentlemen: At a meeting of your honorable body acting as a commit- tee of the whole, held on February llth, you determined to purchase for park purposes the property known as "Olinger Park," and instructed me to draw a contract for the pur- chase of the same for a considera- tion of $32,000.00. It was intended to have the payments made in cer- Regular Session, February 19th, 1920 69 tain amounts each year, covering a number of years until the whole amount was paid. Before you took final action in this matter I considered it my duty to call your attention to what I con- sider the law to be in cases of this kind. In the first place, it is my opinion that the City Council has no authority to enter into any contract to purchase property to be used for park purposes. This authority rests solely and exclusively in the Board of Park Commissioners, where such board exists. A similar case was pre- sented to our supreme court and it laid down the ,rule as above stated. It was the case of "In re-application of Cedar Rapids, cited in the Eighty- fifth Iowa, page 39." In this case the court said: "In cities acting under special charters and cities and incorporated towns may provide by ordinance for the election of three park commis- sioners, but it is left discretionary with each city and town whether to do so or not. It also provides that "said park commissioners shall have exclusive control of such parks, and shall manage, improve and super- vise the same," and that they may use the fund derived from the tax authorized by said chapter "for im- proving such parks, or for purchas- ing additional grounds or laying out and improving avenues thereto, and do all things necessary to preserve such parks." It is clear that in cities or towns having park commis- sioners the exercise of these powers belong to them exclusively, and equally clear that when they have not, the power to purchase or con- demn lands for a public park and to improve and care for the same is to be exercised by the corporation through its council. The city of Cedar Rapids not having park com- missioners, the exercise of these powers remain in its city council." The City of Dubuque has a Board of Park Commissioners and, there- fore, exclusive right to purchase property for park purposes lies in such board. The law as enacted di- vests City Councils of the right to exercise these powers, and places them in the hands of the park com- missioners only. From this it is evi- dent that any attempt upon the part of this council to purchase this property for park purposes would be wholly illegal and void. With reference to the provision of the contract relating to deferred payments, I might advise you that this presents another legal question, and while it is not -necessary to de- termine that question at this time, I might suggest to you that I do not believe • that a contract with such a provision would be valid. The law seems to be that in order to buy property for park purposes the same must be paid for at one time and no contract could be made which would spread the payments over future pe- riods. This position is supported by the decision above referred to. But, as I have said, this question need not be definitely determined at this time because it is clear the council is without authority to purchase this property for park purposes. In view of what I have said, I trust you will discontinue all negotiations looking toward the purchase of this property from Mr. Olinger. Respectfully submitted, M. H. CZIZEK, City Attorney. On motion of Ald. Leist the re- port of the City Attorney was re- ferred to the Committee of the Whole. February 19, 1920. To the Honorable Mayor and Coun- cil of the City of Dubuque.

Mr. Maynard of the Dubuque Electric Co. addressed the Council stating that there was no agreement that the street car men should wait until the appraisal was made before they could expect a raise in wages, also stated that they have no means to pay an increase in wages as the audit will show when it is complete. Ald. Strobel entered and took his seat at 8:00 p. m. Mr. C. C. Mead representing the Car Men addressed the Council stating that it is impossible for the men to meet expenses at the present wage scale of 38c, 40c and 42c, also stating that operators of cars in Davenport are now getting 60c top notch and are asking for 70c and 80c. Des Moines are getting 68c and are asking for 70c and 80c.

Mr. C. C. Mead addressed the Council stating that he did not think the men would be satisfied with a partial increase as they were demanding 60c top notch scale. A communication from Clayton B. Stiver Co. dated February 26, 1920 stating that when the appraisal is completed they will be glad to sub- mit the audit. Presented and read.

Pre- sented and read. C. C. Mead addressed the Council stating that if the Council did not take any action to relieve the threatened strike they were failing in their duty to the public. Mr. Quinlan addressed the Council stating that the Council guaranteed the Dubuque Electric Co. a return when they increased the fares, but they had not guaranteed the men any returns, also that the increase in wages of all employes should not come out of the rail expense, and suggested that the Dubuque Electric Co. carry the expense of a wage in- crease until such time as the Clay- ton B. Stiver Co. submitted their audit. Ald. Andresen moved that a Com- mittee of two consisting of City At- torney Czizek and C. C. Mead be appointed to check over the books of the Dubuque Electric Co. to as- certain the amount of increase in earnings of said Company caused by the increase in fares charged and report their findings to the City Council.

March, 1. 1920. TO THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DUBUQUE. Gentlemen: The undersigned, the Committee appointed by your honorable body to investigate the accounts of the Du- buque Electric Company with the view to ascertain, as far as possible, the increased revenue acquired by the increase in street car fares granted on May 22, 1919, beg leave to report as follows: In assuming the responsibility placed upon us we took it for grant- ed that you did not expect us to make a detailed investigation of the company's books for any particular period of operation, but all that you intended us to• do was to learn, as tar as we were able, what income was derived by the company from the increase in fares granted to it on May 22, 1919. This we have done. We have also made an investigation of the company's income derived from passenger fares and tickets for the period commencing May 22, 1918 and ending January 31, 1919, and we have compared this income with the income which the company received from the same source from May 22, 1919 up to January 31, 1920, this being the period during which the increase in fare has been in effect By taking these two periods we show what the increase in pas- sengers for the latter period was as compared with the former period. We show the number of passengers carried for the different fares and how much revenue was. We make these statements that in order that the scope of our investigation may be clear to you and also how our results have been attained. Number of passengers carried from May 22. 1918 to January 31, 1919 at the different fares. 2888808 at five cents (5c) $144,440.40 349963 at two and one half cents (21/2). 87,709.071/2 3238771 $153,189.471/2 Number of passengers carried from May 22, 1919 to January 31, 1920 at the different fares. 3.013,264 at six and a quarter cents (614) $188,329.00 579,031 at seven cents (7c) 40,532.17 207,491 (from May to Oct. 1) at 21/2.... 5,187.271/2 3,799,786 $234,048.441/2 RECAPITULATION. Passengers carried from May 22, 1918 to January 31,1919-3,238,771 Passengers carried from May 22, 1919 to January 31,1920-3,799,786 Passenger Gain in 1919 .... 561,015 Income from fares from May 22, 1918 to Jan. 31, 1919 153,189.471/2 Income from fares from May 22, 1919 to Jan 31, 1920 234,048.441/2 Revenue gain in 1919 ..$ 80,858.97 On May 22, 1919 the company was permitted to increase its fares from five cents to seven cents cash fare or to six and one-quarter cents ticket fare, and this action was taken by council in order to avert a threatened strike of the street car men and this method was adopted to provide revenue sufficient to pay wage increases and it seems that have been the understanding that the company was to pay the increase out of the additional revenue thus acquired. The increase received by the company, based upon the above figures would be as follows: 579,031 at two cents ...$11,580.62 3,013,264 at one and one quarter cents 37,665.80 Amount secured by increase in fares $49,246.42 This last amount represents what the company made from the differ- ence in fare allowed. But as is here- in before shown the total gain from the entire fare was $80,858.97.

Frith the report of the City Assessor was approved and the petition of Rudolph V. Wag- ner received and filed. Dubuque, Ia., Feb. 28th, 1920. To the Honorable Mayor and Mem- bers of the City Council; Gentlemen: I beg to report teat I have examined the petition of Na- than McClain, relative to being al- lowed a Soldiers Exemption while in service in the U. S. Army, and tind the facts as stated in his petition are true and correct, so if the Law so states that a soldier or sailor is en- titled to have his taxes exempted while in service in the U. S. Army, the above mentioned Nathan Mc- Clain should have his one-half inter- est exempted in the following ues- cribed property, Sub. M. L. 149 East 25 ft. of Lot 7, Sub. M. L. 149 Lot 8, Sub. 2 of 5 of M. L. 149 East 25 ft. of Lot 1, Sub. 2 of 5 of M. L. 149 South 20 ft. of Lot 1, and Sub 14 and 15 Bush's Sub.

Meyer relative to a Soldiers Ex- emption on his 1919 taxes, while he was in service of the U. S. Army, and find that the facts as stated in his petition are true and correct, he being the owner of Lot 24 Oxford Heights Add., also a personal valua- tion of $1,500.00 on Merchandise. So if the Law so states that a soldier is entitled to an exemption of his taxes while in service of the U. S. Army, he should be granted Regular Session, March 4th, 1920 95 the exemption as asked for in his petition. Respectfully submitted, PETER J. KIES, City Assessor. On motion of Ald. Leist the report of the City Assessor was approved and the City Treasurer instructed accordingly. Dubuque, Iowa, Feb. 28th 1920. To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council. Gentlemen: I beg to report that I have ex- amined the petition of W. J. Brown, relative to an over charge on the 1918 tax, on Mineral Lot 128, and find that the above mentioned Min- eral Lot 128, was carred to the John Deery estate in 1918, under two descriptions, the west two-thirds of Mineral Lot 128, valuation for 1918 tax was $600.00, and the undivided one-half of the east one-third of Mineral Lot 128 was carried for a valuation of $1,740.00 for the 1918 tax, so there is no doubt in my mind but that this $1,740.00 valuation car- ried against the undivided one-half of the east one-third is an error, and the valuation should of been carried for $170.00 for the 1918 tax, so the $21.98 which he states in his petition, as being an over -charge is correct, as he paid $24.36 on the un- divided one-half of the east one-third of Mineral Lot 128 for 1918 tax, whereas the tax for 1918 on this un- divided one-half interest in the east one-third of Mineral Lot 128, should have been $2.38, so the Deery estate overpaid on the above mentioned part of Lot $21.98 on the 1918 taxes. Respectfully submitted. PETER J. KIES, City Assessor. On motion of Ald. Strobel the report of the City Assessor was ap- proved and the City Recorder in- structed to draw a warrant in the sum of $21.98 in favor of W. J. Brown, agent John Deery estate.

Baumgartner, E. F. Griner and C. H. Keller) addressed the Council stating that after a thorough investigation they find that if the Dubuque Electric company were to meet the demands of the street car men, at the end of one year's time the company would be between $34,000.00 and $35,000.00 short, based on the earnings of the company during the months of Oc- tober, November and December of the year 1919 and January, 1920, which the street car men themselves state are representative months, also stating that the committee con- sidered the raise of fare to 8c cash fare and 2 tickets for 15c, but found that this would not provide suffi- cient funds to meet the demands of the men. They then took up the question of the one-man "safety car" and found after a thorough in- vestigation these cars would mean a solution to the problem by taking less men to operate them, quicker service to the public and more cars in operation, and would ultimately mean a 60c wage scale to the oper- ators of the one-man "safety cars" and, providing the men accept the wage scale submitted to them, and the City Council repeal the ordinance regulating the number of men re- quired to operate street cars for pub- lic service in the City of Dubuque, he company are in a position to start operating street cars tomorrow, and as chairman of this committee rec- ommended that the City Council re- peal this ordinance. After some discussion Judge Ron- son stated that the committee would not insist that the Council act on this matter tonight, as they had just received notice that the street car men had not accepted the wage scale offered them.

The report of the Civic Committee appointed by you to investigate our affairs informs your Honorable Body that we are unable to pay the men "under present circumstances" the wage demanded, and we have asked you, who can change those "pre9r1It circumstances" to make it possible for us to offer our employes an ac- ceptable wage. Towards that end your Honorable Body has up to this time extended no relief, so that it is still impossible, as the recent Committee reported, to offer the men anything beyond the propositions previously submitted by us, and refused by them, if considera- tion is given the financial condition that is imperative, if we are to render the service that is due the people of Dubuue. Very respectfully, Dubuque Electric Company. By H. B. Maynard, Vice President. On motion of Ald. Strobel the com- munication was made a matter of record. Ald.

Petition of the Dubuque Retail Merchants Association taken Just taken from the Committee of the Whole as follows: Dubuque, Iowa. March, 15 1920 To the City Council, City of Dubuque, Dubuque, Iowa. The executive Board of the Du- buque Retail Merchants Association has considered very carefully the situation in Dubuque created by the existing street car strike. It has become apparant that action must be taken as soon as possible to al- leviate the conditions brought about by this strike. The Executive Board therefore desires to express to the City Council their opinion that the existence of the Ordinance on the statute books of the City prohibit- ing the operation of one-man safety cars is at the present time standing in the way of a settlement of the present strike more than any other one thing. They do therefore earn- estly urge the City Council to im- mediately repeal the Ordinance pro- hibiting the operation of one-man safety cars in this City and from that point on make the utmost speed in bringing about a settlement of the existing strike. Respectfully submitted, Dubuque Retail Merchants Associa- tion. R. M. Plaister, Secretary. Presented and read. Ald. Andre- sen moved to suspend the rules for the purpose of allowing any one pre- sent to address the Council. Carried by the following vote. Yeas;Alds. Andresen, Burch, Frith, Hird, Leist, Strobel. Nays;—None. Absent;—Ald. Plamondon. Mr. Theo. Buechele and Mr. Cohen addressed the Council stating that it was their duty to repeal the ordin- ence prohibiting the one-man cars. Ald.

It has met numerous times; has con- sulted on numerous occasions with both the men and the electric com- pany and was courteously received by both. "We find the situation to be that the men are enlisted to a substan- tial advance in wages and that the company cannot pay the wages de- manded without relief be procured through economy of operation or in- creased income. We used every ef- fort to harmonize difficulties, with the object and purpose of getting the cars operated, and verbally made our report to the city council. "We feel that as there was no power vested in our committee and that as our province was purely ad- visory, that under the circumstances we should be relieved of further ser- vice, thereby leaving the parties in- terested, as well as the city council, free to do as they deem best in the premises. "Respectfully submitted. J. M. McFADDEN, E. S. SCHREMPF, "W. F. GRINER, "C. H. KELLER, "JUDGE ROBERT BONSON." Messrs Meade, Keller and Quinlan addressed the Council relative to one-man street cars. Mr. Meade suggested that in some Cities the situation had been hand- led by appointing a committee to adjust the street car fares to meet the expense of the company chang- ing the rate of fares from time to time. Mr. Cohen stated that as a repre- sentative of the Dubuque Retail Merchants Association he requested the City Council to take action at once and either repeal the Oridnance prohibiting the operation of the one- man cars, or allow the Dubuque Electric Company to charge a higher rate of street car fares. Ald. Andersen moved that the Communication of the Dubuque Re- tail Merchants Association, just taken from the Committee of the Whole asking the City Council to repeal the Ordinance prohibiting the operation of the one-man safety cars in the City, be received and filed. Carried. Mr. Stiver of the Clayton B. Stiver Co., who are now auditing the Dubuque Electric Companys books addressed the Council stating that he thought the audit would be ready to submit in a short time. Ald. Strobel moved to adjourn.

I also find that the above mentioned lot was reduced from $550.00 to $50.00 by the Board of Equalization for the 1919 Tax. The Board went out and viewed the grounds last fall on this Lot, and found that the above mentioned piece of ground is a small strip of ground in the rear of Lot 2 of Sub. 26 O'Niell's Sub., which has a build- ing on, and which house and lot is carried for a valuation of $1,150.00, so the $550.00 valuation placed on the above mentioned Lot 2 Sub. 1 of 1 of 7 of Min. Lot 159, by the Somers System in 1914, I would say that the above mentioned Mrs. Rosa Keck, was over assessed on the above men- tioned Lot 2 of Sub. 1 of 1 of 7 of Min.

You will also find the stipulation agreed to by the defendant company that it will, dur- ing the life of the franchise keep the city informed as to receipts and expenditures in that which has been properly signed by the defendant company through its proper officers. Both of these instruments should be made on record and preserved as permanent records in this case. You will also find hereto attached the bond of Glenn Brown as Park Commissioner. I have examined this bond and find the same properly ex- ecuted in form and the same may be filed with the clerk. Respectfully submitted, M. H. CZIZEK, City Solicitor. 172 Regular Session, May 3rd, 1920 In the District Court of the United States, in and for the Northern District of Iowa, Eastern Division. City of Dubuque, a Municipal Cor- poration, Plaintiff, vs. Dubuque Electric Company, a Corporation, Defendant. This cause came on to be heard at this term, and was by agreeme•o.. submitted for final hearing upon the pleadings, ani being argued by Council and considered by the Court, it is upon consideration thereof, ordered, adjudged and decreed by council and considered by the court, as follows: 1. That the provisions as to rates of fares contained in the defendants franchise ordinances, set forth in the pleadings herein, do not con- stitute a contract between the plain- tiff and defendant that the said pro- visions were and are beyond the power of the plaintiff to enact, and are void, and the plaintiff is hereby permanently enjoined from enforc- ing such provisions against the de- fendant. 2. That the defendant is entitled to reasonable and just rates fol street car service furnished by it, and that the plaintiff is empowered from time to time to fix reasonable and just rates for such service, sub- ject to the right of the defendant to have the reasonableness and justice of such rates determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a proceeding for that purpose. 3. That the defendant is by the terms of its franchise bound, and is hereby ordered unless prevented by cause beyond its reasonable control, to furnish continuous street car ser- vice to the City of Dubuque and its inhabitants during the remaining period of its franchises, in accord- ance with all the terms thereof, ex- cept said provision as to rates of fare. 4. That for the time being, the • defendant shall not charge to exceed the following rates of fare with transfer privileges, namely: (a) eight (8c) cents for a single fare; (b) seven (7) tickets for fifty (50c) cents; (c) children under twelve years of age, single fare four (4c) cents or seven (7) tickets for twenty- five (25c) cents. Defendant claims at this time, in open court, that the said rates are not reasonable or just, and the court does not determine that question, nor does the defendant waive any of its rights in that re- spect. In case defendant shall at any time desire a change in said rates, it shall first apply to the pro- per rate -fixing body, if there be such, for a change in such rates, and de- fendant shall not increase such rates until it has been authorized to do so by either such rate -fixing body or has been granted relief against such rates by some court of competent jurisdiction, by temporary or per- manent injunction, or otherwise. 5. That the counterclaim of the defendant as to the alleged invalid- ity of the ordinance of the plaintiff, prohibiting the operation of so-called "one-man" cars is hereby dismissed without prejudice. 6. That each party shall pay its own costs in this proceeding. To all of which neither party excepts. Dated this 30th day of April, 1920. HENRY T. REED, O. K. Judge M. H. CZIZEK & M. D.
