Councilman Albrecht added that his was too and so did Harry Kimball. Council Chamber Filled Long before tho session opened tho Council chamber was filled with a largo dolegatlou of citizens, tlicro in .favor of tho municipal band. There wero 18 women In tho delega tion. The Chamlnado Club brought forward resolutions asking that tho a city recorder, the firemen, tho po ets, no, nor tho band. Wo oro not oro as dictators. Now wo'vo cut out tho wine, let us have, anyway, the women and song." It. M. Jennings said that when tho band wiih supported by private subscription the people thought It cheap at half tho price, but It was an advertisement and property own ers not living here got a bctioflt, too, and a tax on the city served to ciiuallzo matters. Wilson Kaufman and J. Albert Matsou also favored tho measure. "Thcro aro very few taxpayers against the baud," said Mr. Matson. On behalf of tho musicians of Coos liny 1'crlo It. Halllngor urged the passing of the measure. Two Hours of Argument. Already two hours had been con sumed In debate when Councilman Carl Fvertsen put the motion that tho appropriation bo made for tho band. It. A. Coppio Interrupted with re marks In defense of his position. Ho had figures. Tho ejection for the band was in March, 1DK1, was morely a vote of expression and was voted on by less than halt of tho registered voters.

Mr. Coppio said: "I don't euro if I am recalled. As long as I am on this council I am go'ng to do exactly as 1 bellovo I should." Carl Fvortscn too stated his opin ion, similar to that of Mr. Cop pio. Hot and heavy flew questions from the nudlcnco to tho three tils- ontlng couucllmcii.

Unfair to Abutting Properly Own ers to Pay for Logging; Opera (lldiis To Hold Conference Streets chopped Into bits and moulded Into the curly waves of tho ocean's horo by heavy logging trucks wero protested before tho City Council last evening. The streot committee and the street commissioner will meet with Walter Condron and Jack McDonald to see what arrangements can bo liiade to ward protecting the streets of tho city. Claude Nasbiirg protested. lie said that to allow the logging wag ons to operato through tho street, toar them up and thou charge the property owners for tho repairs Is entirely unfair. "Tho paving cost us In tho first place $5.50 a front foot," ho said. "It's all going to pieces now. Front street husn't tho base to hold up under such a steady strain. It's raising tho dickens with all our streets." Ordinance L'nilt "Well then, if wo stick to our ordinance allowing such things, wo must pass an ordinance to fit the circumstance," was tho vlow of Harry Kimball. No ono believed that tho logging company Is In any way carrying heavier loads than tho law allows, but that tho question Is simply one of too heavy a traffic (or the streets. To cut off tho traitors would ho ono means of street protection thought Duncan Ferguson. Sticks llreak Paving. "When they get big sticks on tho loads that aro 00 and 70 feet long and thoso go bouncing with every dip of tho truck tho result lug concussion Is moro than tho streot can bear," said the city en-1 glncor. Ho said that In this bounc ing often tho entire weight was put on the rear wheels, grinding them ' still deeper Into the paving. Ho i belloed that the cutting out of, tho motor trucks and thu uso of j teams through thu streets would . greatly reduce tho harm to tho pav- lug, bccaitso of reducing the speed. I Tho Coiinellmen declared that tho hauling of tho logs Is a sub-con-! tract and therefore It Is up to the ' haulers to go as fast as they can ' to make tho profits como in as thoy . should. City Recorder Ilutler pointed out ' that tho first agreement with Walt- j er Condron was that tho loggers i should repair any damages to tho streets and that tho Council later changed this. Reduce Maximum Load To reduce the maximum loud over city streets to five tons Is the log ical way out bollovod It. A. Coppio, ' ntul an ordinance to this effect was I ordered drafted and later the mo-! Hon was changed and tho matter ' held up until nftcr tho conference Othorwlso tho ordinance would bo I voted on this evening undor an I cmorgoncy clause.
