placed on its first and second read
ings, Ordinut.ee In Opposed,
An ordinance defining the duties
and compensation of the city recorder
was about to be placed on its flntt
reading, when Councilman Krohn
Jumped to his feet and declnred that
he was opposed to the paHsafi of
such an ordinance and believed it
should be laid on the table Indefinite
ly. The ordinance provides among
other things that the city recorder
Hhall occupy an office In the city halj
rvnd that he Khali devote his entire
time trannactlng the city's biiKlueHS.
His com port nation Is fixed at $7.r per
month. After u brief discussion of
the ordinance, It was referred to the
city attorney with Instructions to
eliminate certain clauses which are
already defined In the city charter.
The ordinance will probably come up
for final disposition at the next reg
ular meeting of the council.
llraml.H Appropriation Waste.
Another ordinance authorizing the
expenditure of )30Q with which to
extend the Oak street sewer into the
channel of the Umpqua river was
placed on Its Prat and second read
ings, and upon a motion to suspend
the rules, was rend for the third
time and passed. The ordinance was
opposed by Councilman Mlcelll, who
declared that such a move at this
time was simply a waste of the city's
funds. "Every fall we are asked to
appropriate money for the repairing
of this sewer," said Councilman Ml
celll, "notwithstanding that It Is an
unnecessary expenditure. In another
month the water will be high enough
to carry awny the refuse from this
sewer, and 1 cannot see a good argu
ment for expending such a sum of
money at this time."
ItcmotiNtrance Is Filed.
Following the reading of an ordi
nance authorizing t ho collection of
the paving assesHment on Mill street.
City Recorder Orcntt presented a re
monstrance signed by Carl Huffman
and printed In a recent Issue of The
N'ews. Mr. Huffman declared among
other things that he knew of no law
that would coniel a person to pay
for something for which he did not
contract, neither did he believe that
the taxpayers should bo compelled to
pay Tor something they did not re
ceive. Further, Mr. Huffman brand
ed the work as faulty and not in ac
cordance with the desires of the
property owners.
Cpon reading the remonstrance,
the several councilman sat motion
less, apparently satisfied that "George
should do it." Finally, Councilman
iosepliHon exclaimed that it was up
to some one to make himself the hero
of the occasion and advanced a mo
tion rejecting the remonstrance. The
motion carried.
(ins Company (Jets Little,
The city recorder presented nnoth
r communication from the gas com
pany Inst evening lu which they re
quested the return of the certified
check In the sum of $5,000, which
was posted with the council at the
time the franchise wan originally
granted.
Mayor llaynes said he wns opposed
to returning the chock until such
time as the company repaired the
streets as per their agreement with
the city. Mr. llorton, of the Clarke
& Henery Company said he had been
retained to repair the damage, but
to date, hud been unable to execute a
contract with the company.
I'pon motion of Councilman
losephson, tbo recorder was instruct
ed to notify the gas company to re
pair the streets at once, at which
time the check would he returned.
The motion carried unanimously.

The city engineer was inntrurted to

Councilman MicelM brought up the
matter of enforcing the ordinnance
relative to destroying all poplar trees
within 100 feet of any sewer. The
matter was referred to the health
and police committee.
A iietition was authorized asking
the county court to dedicate a portion

After a search lasting two days.
Bliss Singleton today found the two
mares, alleged to have been stolen
from his father's stables In North
Roseburg some time last week. The
animals were found at a point about
twelve miles north of Roseburg on
