Bigelow, commissioner of public affairs, who objected to the passage of an ordi nance carrying: an emergency appro priation of $10,000 when it was up before, consented to the plan yester day morning, and the council put the measure through. S. C. Pier, commissioner of finance, unde'R whose supervision the concerts will be given in the parks, will ad vertise for bids as soon as possible. He said yesterday that he proposes to have an unusually good programme for the season on account of the large number of visitors who will be here for the Shrine and other conventions, as well as for the Rose Festival. No Street Shows Permitted. The council voted unanimously to permit no shows or circuses of any kind within the city limits during the Shrine and other conventions. Joseph Hutchinson, license Inspector, was in structed to issue no license for any such and also to ask the city attor ney to prepare an ordinance that will make absolutely necessary the grant ing of a license before any street affair of this nature may proceed. "We must make certain that there re no exhibitions of any kind here during the weeks of these big gath erings this year that will make us look like a "Jay" town," said Mayor Baker, in bringing the subject to the attention of the commissioners. They agreed with him. The council discussed a proposed amendment to the charter that will enable the members to enter into leases for more than two years for properties of other public bodies, such as the county commissioners or school board. The subject was brought up because it had been learned by Commissioner Pier that property recently supposedly given to the council by the county commis sioners at the poor farm for park pur poses really was not given outright, but is only to be leased. Longer Lraws Wanted. Inasmuch as the members of the council are not Inclined to expend city funds upon property not owned by the municipality or leased for a term longer than two years, it was thought advisable to effect if possible an arrangement whereby a longer lease may be had. Commissioner Pier was instructed to take up with the city attorney's office the subject of a proper amendment to be submitted . . I, . . t , .Via rtvimnrv llPftinn next month. Upon motion of Commissioner Mann Mayor Baker appointed a committee of the council to meet with the state board of health and to work out a system whereby the city will be as sured of remuneration for any wom en brought from outside points to the Cedars, the municipal detention home at Kelly Butte. It was an nounced that the state board intends to put on a campaign that will re sult in an increase in the population at the Cedars, which is the only place of its kind in Oregon. The mayor named Commissioners Mann, Bigelow and Barbur. PASTOR ABOUT TO RETIRE Rev. J. K. Baillie Decides to Cease Active Work in Ministry. MEDFORD, Or., April 16. (Spe cial.)
