Tht Joint Board aad Aldermen Meld Meeting's Yesterday The) People's CompMTt l.lnntd Go Ont on the Board. It was half-past three or later yester day afternoon when the joint board of aldermen and advisors met in the mayor's office. A full advisory board was in attm d a nee, while all of the aldermen with the exception of Mr. Gudger were present. Alderman Waddell was chosen to preside Mr. Brevard as a committee of one, reported that Pressley, the road roller engineer, would not work for less than $60 a month, or $55 a month if giveu a regular job. Nothing was done. Kev. L. M. Pease asked permission for tbe Home Industrial school to connect with the sewer on South Mam street. when it is extended. This was a mat ter lor tbe aldermen aud no action was taken. Mr. tiummey made a motion that Citv Engineer Lee be instructed to employ an assistant. Mr. Starnrs said he thought Mr. Lee could be able to do all tbe work Alone. Mr. Scott went into details in tbe matter, contending that it was im possible tor ooe man to do tbe work. There was no definite disposition of the matter. The question of what proportion of the city engineer's salary should be taken from tbe various funds was re ferred to Messrs. Sutnmey and Conant. There was a lengthy discussion od the question of whether the joint board should pay damages on streets to be widened. It was decided that aucb dam ages should be paid out of the general lund and by tbe aldermen. On motion ol Mr. Scott an auditing committee was appointed, through whose bands all bills must pass, and tbe chairman's signature must be on all approved bills. Committee: Scott, chair man, Cummings, Brevard and Starnes. The city clerk was instructed to pay bills for freight on approval of the city engineer, and present the bill at the next regular meeting following such pay ment. Two bills were ordered paid: Drain pipe, $46.50; W. S. Bradlev, help on road roller, $1.50. THE ALDERMEN, Considerable Business Done In a Small Way. The board of aldermen went into regu lar weekly session us soon as the joint board had adjourned. Alderman Wad dell was called to the chair. Mr. Starues brought up the matter of the request of the Asheville street rail wav comoanv to be allowed to Dave between the rails with Belgian block, as recommended by tbe joint street com mittee. I his was in the slape ol an amendment to tbe Farinholt charter, to reai as follows: "That wheu the city shaH pave an street or portion thereof now occupied by the track of the said .railway, the said company shall, at its own cost and ex pense, pave between the rails of tbe said track with granite blocks, commonly known as Belgian blocks, of a size and quality and in such manner as shall be provided by the street committee of the bsard oi aldermen.' The Amendment's Amendment. Mr, Starnes offered an amendment to to the amendment, as follows: "And the said company agree that in the paving above referred to it will make tbe level of its tracks to csnform to the grade of the street, as the same is located by the city engineer, and that it will place such paving between its rails in advance of the contractors of the citv, paving upon each side thereof and in such manner as not to interlere with, binder or delay said contractors in the performance of their contracts with the city. "Nothing in the foregoing ordinance contained shall be construed to in any way waive, abridge or interfere with the right ot the City of Asheville to require tbe said company to pave the street over which its lines pass, in addition to tbe space between its rails, eighteen inches upon tbe outside thereof, or to do such work and charge tbe same to said com pany, as provided for in chapter 135 of the acts of tbe general assembly of North Carolina, passed at its session ol 1891. "By tbe acceptance of this ordinance tbe said company agrees to all tbe terms thereof." Col. Martin was present, and spoke. He did not think be should be so handi capped. To agree to the last amend ment would be to give up two points which were yet to be settled. Tbe ques tion simply was "Is it desirable to pave between the rails with granite?" II the last amendment was passed tbecompanr could not tbink of accepting it. Mr. Starnes said be did not like to be threatened with lawsuits. Col. Martin, however, said he did not make a threat. He merely stated facts. There were yet two questions to be decided whether tbe city could force the company to pave eighteen inches on each side of the track, aad who should move the car track, the contractor or tbe company. Mr. Starnes moved that bis amend ment be placed on first reading. There was a tie, Starnes and McDowell voting aye, and Brevard and Leonard no. Act ing Mayor Waddell voted no. Mr. Bre vard then moved tbe adoption of the original amendment. There was a tie vote again. This time Acting Mayor Waddell voted no, and both amendments were knocked nut. To Kntend Again. M. b. Carter, esq., for tbe Asheville Street railway company, asked permis sion for tbe companx to extend its line sp Depst street from tbe freight depot to Patten avenue. Referred to a com mit, tec composed of Messrs. Starnes, Leonard and Waddell. Tbe subject ol tbe city's "hooking" of cart trom A. H. & C. E. Lymaa came sp again. Mr. Starnes said be bad talked with the street snperintrndenU who told bim that tbe cart bad never bees sscd more thaa a lew days. But Messrs. Ljunaa wanted $40 for a. Mr. Brevard moved that tbe city pot tbe cart back is tbe Lymana' lot. The aldersies bad a Isugb over this, and decided that snot ton would better sot go on record. Nothing was done.. For I too Firm Laddlea. Benry C. Fagg, captaia of the hose company, told tbe board that the state firemen's sssociatios would asset is AsbcviDc is August ec September, and tbe company, in order to enter the races then, would need "jumper" and 400 feet of hose. He said he didn't want to see Asheville behind in fire matters. The "jumper" be might possibly do with out, out was compelled to have the nose, for regular use. Mr. Leonard said the department was getting mighty costly Mr. Starnes said tbe firemen save tho sands of dollars worth of property, and never get a cent, so he moved that the equipments asked be purchased. The motion canca, Mr. uconara atone voting no. The city ball building committee was instructed to report on beating aooa rstus, cells and cold storage room in the sew bmlding at next meeting. WOT, Tbe AH Mead It. A colored man appeared before the board and stated that having seen in Tub Citizen that tbe mayor had been instructed to telegraph for a man to run the steam roller, be had concluded to come up and offer his services and ask for the job. He understood running tbe machine and could give good references. Mr. Waddell told him to get his recom mendations ready and present them to tbe board next week and they would be given fair consideration. j. u. Murpnv.esq., appeared for sev eral persons 1'ving near Jefferson Drive aad Depot streets, who desire an alley running between those streets. Referred to street ivimtnitl L. V. Brown asked for a retaining waff on nis property on . uepot street, sent to the joint street committee. Will Meed an Elevator. E. R. Glenn complained of tbe insuffi ciency of the award of damages to bim on his Depot street property. The wid ening of tbe street took on an average 10 feet oft an 80-foot front. It left Mr. Glenn's house seven feet above the street, and only 34 inches back from the edge ol tbe street. It also destroyed a well and pump, the latter worth $25. The jury only allowed $66 damnges. The matter was referred to the street com mittee, with Mr. Brevard acting in Mr. Starnes' place. I he matter of damages to the Pattor avenue hotel, at intersection of Depot street ana I atton avenue, went over un til next week. Tbe report of the iurv on widening South Mum street was read and ac cepted. Boole Small Chat. Z A. J. Wills, for the city school com mittee asked that the water main on Eagle street be extended ss as to be in reach of the new school building Catholic Hill. Sent to joint board. on J. B. Cole stirred the board up about the opening of Turner street. The jury has been ordered some time. W. P. Blanton & Co., sent in a livery bill for $106.80. As many of the items were ordered br Mayor Blanton, it was suggested that the bill lie over until the mayor comes back to the city and explains. And it laid over. A building permit was granted I. B. Cole, for a ten-room house on Roberts street. P. W. Flentje was up again about some work on the sidewalk on Central avenue for which he wanted credit on bis taxes. He was told that the com mittee bad recommended thai he be al lowed nothing. "Well, that's a very funny street committee," commented Mr. Flentje, as he went out. A lew Bills. The following bills were ordered paid: I. A. Trnnent, labor on city hall, $265.34; Callahan Bros., stone on city ball, $260; Mrs. Alice Reynolds, overcharge of city tax, $42; Ballard, Rich & Boyce, $82.01; Z. V.

Just here tbe lights in the office, be longing to the People's company, went out, and the aldermen bad to follow suit. WATTERSON TALKS. He Thinks Ills Neither Hill Nor Cleveland. Chicago, March 11. An authorized interview with Henry Watterson is made public. Mr. Watterson said : "If I had to put a man in the white bouse be would be Carlisle. Him aside, anybody will suit me who does not come from New York." Why so?" "Because the factions have made the nomination of anv New Yorker impossi ble. Governor Hill has killed Cleveland and in doing so he has almost killed him self. The nomination must come west or go to Massachusetts, Pennsylvania or Maryland. If we could not elect Cleveland in 1888, when be was in the white house and when be bad all tbe outer forms and sbows of harmony in the state of New York, what chance should we hate against the present ve hement opposition ? "Cleveland made us a good president. In great affairs has many of tbe elements of a great man. lam most sincerely bis friend, but I n.ast contest, snd some times feci like resenting the notion that be is oar sole and only and most original Moses in tbe matteT of tanf reform." "Do you think Senator Palmer is too old?" "Why, what is tbe matter wih Glad stone or Bismarck? No, certainly so. He is so excellent man, and if there are no sinkholes in bis record woald make as excellent candidate. So would Got. Boes, of Iowa; so would Gov. RssselLior Gey.
