At a called imeeting of City Council held Monday night, City Attorney A.11 C. Todd was authorized to advertise for sale tle two bond issues of $35,000 for street improvement and $20,000 for- sewerage extension. The bonds aire to becar interest at 5 1-2 per cent and are to be retired in twenty and thirty years respectively. In view of the recent strength shown in the bond markets, the council appeared to be Cxpectant of getting a much better price than they would have brought several months ago. Mr. Don H. Irvin was authorized -to continup the work of top-solling Flem ing Street begun last -celc, The work will -be continued -to the Laurens Mill line near the store or Mr. C. B. Adams. On motion of Alderman Simpson, the mayor was authorized -to secure esti niates from Mr. N. C. 1-Hughes as to the cost of 1paving Church street with asphialt to a width of twenty feet. Mr. HIughes had previoutsly reported that the cost of paving the eitire width of the street would be i., he neighbor hood of $35,000., As it appeared to be ilipracticable -to expend thlli., much money on the street at this time, the new estimate for a narrower street was asked. On inotioll of Aldermgtn Siupson, .\i'dyor Franks was authorized to sell to the best advantage the rcmains of tle city truck destroyed by lire 'shen the city -barni was burned. Several parties were reported to be willing to pay a niomii in(Ll price for it. Mayor Franks stiated that lie had re ceived a letter from Sen. N. B. Dial in which Sen. Diah had brought up the question again of .the- Reedy River Power Company buying the entire elec tric light systeih from the city and furnishing consumers direct. The pos sibility of such an arrangement had been discussed at a foriher meeting when sentiment seemed to be against it. Although no motion was made in regiard to Mr. Dial's letter Monday night, the reporter for The Advertiser understood that Mayor Franks was to re-ply in the negative to the proposi tion.
