"If you have proof, produce it; if not shut up.1 This was the advise hurled at Councilman Hais ten by Councilman Lincoln. Council man Jones likewise registered resent ment at the Halaten Charges. Jones and Lincoln voted to require mainten ance bonds on Spring street but Vha motion was voted down. The whole affair was the most really exciting set-to of the many exciting events of this kind that the present council has enacted. The presiding officer's gavel worked like a trip hammer; the audi' ence was in feverish anticipation of a personal combat and after it was all over and no noses had been fractur ed, a sigh of relief went up. The aft ermath was' a feeling of disgust that such scenes should be enacted in the law-making chamber of the city. Spring Street Re-advertised. In accordance with the opinion of E. W. Geiger's legal advice that the pres ent proceedings on Spring are invalid, the council took steps to go over the work again. The bids wilt be called for on the 10th of September and on that date remonstrances will also be heard. There will be no bond re quired of the contractor other than the 10 per cent for six months. . Liens to Be Foreclosed. The foreclosing of liens on property in improvement districts where in terest is delinquent, was " ordered if not paid by September first. Such payment will recoup the de; pleted interest fund so that the inter est coupons coming in on that date can be met. Otherwise the interest fund will have to be replenished from some other source which is deemed on ly a last resort measure. Official ord ers to that effect are published else where in this issue. ' Vacation of the extreme west ends of B and C streets was granted, but new water mains in that same terri tory petitioned for were later refus ed in view of the small returns that is in sight to the city. A petition for a block of concrete sidewalk on W avenue was denied in view of the heavy expense entailed. The water main extension on K ave nue was granted. The tool house is at last to be tem porarily housed on some certain spot if the committee's report, adopted last night, Is carried out For months, the tool house has been a thorn in the side of the council and a stack of communi cations offering sites at more or less nominal sums, was laid on the .table and the tool house ordered to thC gravel pit on Eighth street, n : ; The subway ordinance on . North Second street was passed and it is now possible for the city and O.-W. to proceed with construction of that piece of engineering as soon as the contract is signed. : Assessment -ordinances on O ave nue were passed. ;..- a ; The assessment ordinance on the West La Grande sewer district was passed. . ' The extension of hard surface pav ing to the property line, in lieu of a side walk in the wholesale district, on Jefferson and Greenwood, was denied, it benig held that the city could, not change its course without going oyer the whole proceedings again. v Mayor Hall submitted a communi cation to the council dealing with' the finan 'i.l situation. It says: ,i .:.;' To the Mimbera of the City Couacil: I wish to respectfully call yo.ir at tention ence more to the financial con dition of the city and the result! ,t uj-J solute necessity of the practice oi rig id eeonrmy. v ; ' : During the first half of the present year the financial condition of the city was Improved to the extent of about $13,000.
