The petitions asking for the rein
statement of this popular instructor

LEGAL OBSTACLES OVERCOME
The New Ordinance Will Be Introduced at the
Next Meeting of the Council Monday
Night Thought to Be legal
It was announced here this morn
ing that the new ordinance authorU
ing the solicitation for bids for the
construction of the promised Hose
burg & Kastern Railroad, Is now be
ing prepared by the attorneys and
will be ready to introduce at the next
meeting of the city council which
will be held Monday night.
Attorney It. L. Kddy, who has been
retained by the council to assist City
Attorney Carl Wimberly, in looking
after the legal matters connected
with the railroad project, stated to
day that the ordinance now being pre
pared was very similar to the one
vetoed by Mayor Rice at the last
meeting of the council.
Ah soon as the railroad proposition
is brought before the council Monday
night a motion will be advanced to
sustain th veto to the original rail
road ordinance adopted by the conn
cil some time ago. This moiion will
be seconded and will probably carry
by the almost unanimous vote of the
council. The new ordinance will
then be placed on its first and second
readings. Another week may then
elapse before the ordinance is finally
adopted.
Attorney Kddy stated this morning
thai he was certain all legal compli
cations have been overcome, and that
Kendall Brothers will be in a position
to begin actual construction opera
tioiis on the railroad within the
net few weeks. Fn usual care has
been exercised by the attorneys in
handling the legal proceedings, and
they believe the acts of the city will
be upheld by the Supreme ourt in
ihe event that body should be asked
to finally pass on the proposition.
As a result of the new agreement
bet ween Kendall Brothers and the
municipality the people of Koseburg
are opiimislic and a general feeling
prevails that both the railroad and
sawmill will be built soon.
