Thnt would carry It over to next fall. Ho fnvored wnk Ing hi) nnd doing Honiuthing to ro llovo tho Bltuntion. It was n whlto olophant any way you looked nt it Mr. Bnyno was opposed to doing anything or spending any money on this innttr. Ho regretted thnt mat tors wero ns bad ns they were. Ho was opposed to tho street cars cross ing that bridge. Ho hoped tho street cars could bo kept oft that bridge and construct a crossing of their own. Ho wanted to refer the wholo mnttor to tho city attorney. Mr. Smart for tho contractors said that thoy could complete their work in twolvo days. But If they mado tho C0-foot fill, and higher "wntor camo It will all bo washed away again. They did not need tho 90 days naked for. Tlmo for Contract Reduced. Tho motion of Mr. Uesncr to ox tond tlmo of contractors 00 days on North Commercial street, was re considered. Mr. Gesncr opposed this. It wns not a favorable- tlmo to mako tho bridge safe. It was one of thoso un fortunnto things which wo. could not help. It wns a great Inconvenience to everybody. Tho public muBt sub mit to Inconvenience If it wanted Improvements made. Lat us not bo unrensonnblo in rushing thiB work in an imprudent manner. Mr. Stockton Bald tho peoplo had certainly put up with n grent deal of Inconvonienco. This company had had Bovernl extensions. It was ad mitted that tho contractors could do tho work in 14 dnys. It was a dis grace to tho city tho way public work was allowed to drag along. Mr. Stockton moved to amend that tho contractors bo given 40 days. Carried. City Attornoy Condlt roported thnt ordinances woro regularly pnsscd with a majority of thoso present, n majority of all 14 not being re quired. City Library Sustained. On matter of city paying salary of city librarian, city attorney reported thnt library association bo required to mako a contract with .tho mayor and recorder, that library bo freo to all' citizens, and city help mantaln samo. Roport adopted. Tho Wator Ordinance. Mr. Haas, from tho commltteo' on plumbing, reported wator ordlnanco with amendments. Report adopted Placed on calendar. Mr. Downing moved that city ad- vortlso for bids on tho fill n). ap proach to North Commercial street bridgo in accordanco "with plans and specifications on fill. Carried, Rig Steel Rridgc. Mr. Frazor moved that tho tlo bolts on tho hlg steel bridgo bo look ed after. Rpforred to commltteo on bridges and authorized to confer with tho county court. Mr. Low asked that council order a sldowalk along property of D, D. Irwin on Trade street. Mr. Rndcliff moved that Rock street, between Wilson and Myora bo ordered opened. Carried, Unas Has a Kirk. Mr. Haas roferred to tho way street cars were handled and ho moved thnt tho mayor appoint a spe cial committee of three to look after the matter. Survey of North Salem. Mr. Gesner moved to reconsider action of council In ordering a sur vey of streets and blocks and grades of North Salem. He moved to amend. so that there bo grades and rnonu monts established instead of estab lishing curbs and corners. Carried. Mr. Jacobs wanted to know bow Mr. Gesner would establish a block without a corner. Mr. Gesner ex plained that bis- way was tho only practical way. Mayor Rodgera veto message of tke S0 a year iasurance license or IsutRce wju r4. I Mr. Rodgers said It wns unusual for a mayor to get down on tho floor and arguo a question with tho mom hers. It was improper to do so. He wished to have the right to differ and tho difference- was not personal. .The question was shall tho ordinnnco .pass notwithstanding tho veto. I Mr. Rndcliff spoke In support of tho odlnnncc. Corporations that had I property to bo taxed should be dealt ' llenlently with. If an Insurance com-j pany did but $500 business a year it could afford to pay this license. Re peal of tho $18 license would nqt re sult in reduced rates. Raise to $50 will not rosult In rniso o rates. In surance rntes had been arbitrarily raised nt Salem nnd tho Ucenso feo should be raised. Mr. Stockton sold no ono liked to pay taxes. His taxes woro $200 morn than Inst yenr. Ho would not rnlso prices to his customers on that ac count. Wo hnd tho best city In the wholo country for profitable InBur nnco business. Tho insurnnco com-( ponies could not ralso rntos any high er nt Snlom. Matters Out Hot. ' Mayor Rodgers: "Would you favor taxing tho ngont of Marshall Field , & Co., becauso his flrnija located in Chicago. Why treat a corporation different from any business?" Mr. Stockten: "Why did you favor letting off tho corporations in tho legislature, ns you did, and try' to pnss new taxes on tho people over tho veto of tho governor?" Aldermen objected to theso per sonnlltlos. Mr. Downing oxprosscd fonrs that if this ordinnnco wont into effect in Btiranco rates would bo raised 10 to 15 por cent. Ho cited tho lnstnnco of Mcdford. If tho Ucenso wns raised KING OF THROAT AND LUNG DR. KING'S NEW DISCOVERY FOR COUGHS AND COLDS CURES hl THROAT - LUNG DISEASES SAVED HER SON'S UFE x My son Rex was taken down a year ago with lung trouble. We doctored somo months without improvement. Then I began giving Dr. Klag's New Discovery, and I soon noticed a change for the better. X kept tils treatment up for a fow weeks and now my son is perfectly weU and wpiks every day. MRg SAMp RIPPEE Av,f Mo OOo AND $1.00 SOLD AND GUARANTEED BY J. C. PERRY'S DRUG STORE It would rnlso an Indirect tnx on tho locnl agents. Mr. Itndcllff said tho local n gents did not pay this tnx. Mr. Dewning: "Why Bhottld wo put a higher tnx on Innurnnco com panies than Portland, whero it is only $40 a year?" Mr. Lew: "We uro n hotter risk than Portland." Mr. Downing closed his argument by snytng tho ordinnnco would drive tho insurance business Into the hands of a fow mon. Ho fnvored a graduated license that would not put tho llttlo follow nut of business. Mr. Gesner: "This proposition o'f taxing corporations is fnr-ronohinK Mnny stutos ralso all their revenues in this way nnd this wns tho only way to rench them Indirectly. Annunl Dro losses nt Snlcm wero not $11000;. Thoy took nununtly out of Salenv $45,000. Tho town would bo hotter off if n lot of tho agents who only carried Insurance ns n nldu Issuo woro forced out of tho business.
