Chief among the matters consider ed at last evening's meeting of the city council 'was a remonstrance against the construction of the so called Hamilton Addition sewer. Among other things, the remonstra tors alleged that the bid submitted by Mr. Ott was excessive, and that the property owners would be un able to meet the assessments in the event contract was awarded. Council man Micelli said the people were right in their contention, and con cluded by advancing a motion to the effect that the bid of the contractor be rejected. The motion curried by the unanimous vote of the council The engineer's original estimate of the cost of the sewer was $2,012, while the bid was something over (500 higher. Uiid On The Table. An ordinance authorizing the pav ing of Winchester street came up for final passage last evening, but was laid on the table fur one week upon motion of Councilman Mlrelll. Councilman Micelli said that "busi ness" matters had attracted his at tention during the past few days, and consequently be was unable to give the remonstrance piesented at a previous meeting proper attention. Councllmen Houck and Mullen said they were opposed to delaying action inasmuch as J. W. Wright had threatened to file an injunction In the event the improvement was undertaken. "In the event Mr. Wright carries out his threat, I am of the opinion that we should pro ceed at once." said Councilman Houck.. "and in so doing assure the pavement for next year." Councilman Micelli Bald he was of the same opinion as Councilman Houck, but considered It only right to delay matters one week out of res pect for the remonstrators. Minor Mattel's.

Lee Stelner, superintendent of the Ore gon Stato Asylum' for the Insane, was re-eelcted to that position for another four years by the board of asylum trustees today, his present term expiring January 1, '1913. and his second four-year-term starting at that date. Mr. Stelner was appointed when Governor Chamberlain. Secretary of State Benson and State Treasurer Steel formed the board. It was un derstood that Mr. Stelner was the personal choice of Secretary Benson, as they were close friends. During troubles which arose dur ing the last legislature. In which Dr. Stelner was attacked, the members of the state board, including Gov ernor West. State Treasurer Kay and Secretary Benson, warmly espoused the cause of Stelner. and were not backward In declaring that Stelner was being attacked purely through political motives. This appreciation, which wns shown Dr. Stelner by the members of the board, made It a foregone conclusion that he would be return ed as superintendent of the largest Institution controlled by the state. -JHe will, in addition to his dunes as superintendent of the central asylum. nave mncn to say in me ueveiopiuein the Eastern Oregon branch Insane hospital.
