CLATSKAHia, Or., Jan. IS. 1802.
Epiroa M 1ST Dear Blr i I would hks to
slate a lew facts in regurd to how our city
affi iri it managed. Boms of our council
men remind us of a lot of school boys.
I'hey want to do something but don't know
how to begin. We have street lamps but
no sidewalks, and the lamps ore so fur apart
that it leaves at least half of the streets In
darkness The council met on the 8th of
Janua y, and the largest half of the time
wassevoted to growling at the inarxhal.
tfcuiis growled because be didn't light the
lumps belore rundown, and others, because
he didn't light them on moonlight nights;
and others becsurs bs left them burn a
little longer on some nights than others.
Now wlieu those lumps were put up It
was left t the di-cretion of the marshal to
iKht them, and he wai inftructed to nst
his pidirment when to linht them and bow
long to let them hum. Mow they seem to
have nothing to do but to find fault with
ths marshal for doing Just as lis was In
structed to do by themselves. They enact
l..ws clear out of couininii fence and rea-on,
and lovariabl.v get things mixed np so no
one en tell how to eni.irce mem.
Ths fact of the matter Is, we have bud
but very llitls disturbance this winter and
peace and quietness reigned supreme. If
thin kind of work iseontinued It will soon
be imposHibls to get any one t take ihe of
fice ol marshal and tbey will be no better
than they were belure they arranged a city
here. One of the councilintn. the "am one
that painted the signs on the Cla'skaul.
brlde, seem to he the mouth piece fur a'l
the rest. He is tishln for ths paltry turn
of 10 per month they pay fur li.rbti.ig the
lamps. I f bs l ax gi iod a painter at he blows
himself np to be it dosm't seem that be
hnil lbMha'-d up.
