'i' ' wim THE DAILY COOS BAY TIMES. MARSHFIELD, OREGON, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 1908. m m I fit WOULD TEST W C. A. Smith Company Wants to Put Them Down On Front Street City Council. Mayor E. E. Straw and the city council last evening rejected a prop osition from J. E. Oren, general man ager of the C. A. Smith Lumber and Manufacturing Company, to pave the company's portion of Front street, between 'B' and 'C streets with plank this fall and to put down creosote blocks there next season in stead of having the bituminous rock paving that the council has ordered. In rejecting the proposition, Mayor Straw told Robert Booth who repre-1 sented Mr. Oren that it wasn't the time to take the matter up owing to the order having recently been made for piivlng with bituminous rock and while he said that the of fer might be considered at the pro per time, he also said that if suitable bids were received on the bituminous rock paving that he proposed to go ahead with the bituminous rock pav ing along the Smith property. Councilman Nasburg also opposed granting of Mr. Oren's proposition, declaring that the latter's company had not shown the proper attitude towards the city in the matter. In presenting Mr. Oren's proposi tion, Mr. Booth stated that the com pany believed that the street had not settled sufllclently to warrant putting down the concrete base and perma nent paving this year. On this ac count, he said they wished to put In plank paving for this season and then next year to put down the best possible quality of creosote or wood en block paving. Councilman Sacchl was in favor of granting the request, declaring that he would like to see the wood block paving tested here. He said that Front street would afford an excellent place for the test, espe cially as one half of the street would, under Mr. Oren's proposition, be paved with bituminous rock and the other with the blocks. However, Messrs. Straw and Nasburg had their way. Ten luster's License. Upon suggestion from Councilman Sacchl, the council ordered tho city attorney to draft nn ordinance pro viding for a teamster's license. The revenue derived from tho license, Mr. Sacchl explained, is to be used In creating a fund to keep tho paving clean. Discuss City Ilcuorclui'. Councilman Sacchl and Mayor R, 13. Straw had u rather spirited tilt over tho city recorder's ofTlce. Mr. Sacchl insisted that there is no pro vision for the city recorder. hiring a deputy recorder at a salary of $100 per month In addition to tho ?G0 per month which tho recorder draws. Ho said tho system tho city is fol lowing In allowing the $100 per month to tho deputy Is illegal an 1 that some taxpayor or attorney may get nfter them and causo them trouble. Mayor Straw said that it had all been thrashed out boforo and it was nonsenso to bring it up again. Hold Up Fairin's Hill. It was decided last night to hold lip City Attorney Farrin's warrant for $250 for a tlmo owing to tho dis covery that tho minutes of tho coun cil do not show Hint ho had boon reg ularly engaged to codify tho city or dinance. According to tho council records, tho proposition to codify tho ordinances was loft on the table wlion It was first brought up. Tho city's record nlso shows that tho contract included recording as well as codifying tho ordinances. Mr. Farrln furnished carbon typowrltton copies and It may bo that these copies of tho ordinances will bo past ed in tho ordinance hook Instead of holng recorded In tho usual manner. Mr. Farrln was out of tho city last night so tho final action on his con tract was deferred. Xftv Kerry Slip. Owing to dllllculty in having tho "city's slip for the new furry which will bo put In operation between tho city and Eastsldu within a week completed, It was decided to uso tho C. A. Smith Company's slip for tho tlmo bolng. Tho company has of fered to louso tho slip to tho city for about $20 per mouth. It Is claimed that Julius Larson wanted to charge tho city too much for changing the ferry slip and that Is tho rcubon that tho completion of it lins been doluy od. Other Mutters Up. Mnstors and McLnln woro awarded $200 on tholr First mid Codar stroot contract. A warrant was Issued for tho Flanagan stroot improvement assess jnont. A number of tho property owners propose to take advantage of the Eddy bonding act and the city Is trying to have one of the local banks buy the bonds at par. The Laurel street grading, paving and elevated roadway were accepted. A warrant was issued for the col lection of the assessments for the Improvements of Prospect, 'B and Seventh streets. The proposed improvement of Alice street Is being held up on ac count of the necessity of having the government pass on the plans. Al. Owen and other Cedar street property owners are objecting to the Plans for Improving that thorough fare, but the council decided that It could not change the plans. Plumber's licenses were granted to J. B. Rust and A. E. Neff. Councilman Savage was instruct ed to put in a new foundation in the pit of the boiler room of the city hall, the original work having been poorly done. The council decided not to have Its portion of the street leading up Knob Hill from F. P. Norton's new residence concreted this fall because of the new fill which is settling con siderable. A number of the property owners are putting concrete on top of the crushed stones. 4-S- ' MaMinid ----- EAGLES WATCH ELKS IN SECRET PRACTISE Jake Goldie and Clay Moore Get Line On Jack Flanagan's Colts. There is consternation today in the ranks of the Eagles over the ball game to be played Sunday between the Birds and. Elks. Up to yester day afternoon it looked like a walk over for the king of birds, but Foxy Jack Flanagan has gathered together a fine team. He had them training steadily and playing In secret. Yes terday supposing the cost to be clear, he tipped it off to be at the ball grounds at 2 p. m. They came from every direction and were just perfecting themselves In signal work when some one noticed Clay Moore looking over left field fence, and-next to him Jim Lynch and Jake Goldie were peeping through a knot-hole. Goldie was taking notes on his cuff from Clay's dictation. South-paw Rube Waddell Ken nedy was snapping a few benders over while E. D. McArthur was catch ing. Jack Flanagan was cavorting around second like a two-year-old, and was eating everything up. Geo. Goodrum was all over tho garden. Tho regular line-up was not given out, but Rube Waddell Kennedy will not be used unless the Birds have their Eagle-eye with them. Then ho will be put In, and there will bo nothing to it.
