It has con.c to the attention of the publishers of the Herald that there has been Some question raised as to the number of copies circulated each week of this paper. A» we state on the top of th» first oage the Horn'd has a guaranteed circulation ,f 1",00 copies, and that statement is abso lutely correct. To anv of our adver- o-.-r piner MM ar- always on n f r insiwctioa and we feel that if these who have bnen instrumental in circulating the rumor that the Hera'd docs not carry out its claims could be present on the o paper ia printed and *e- the large piles of papers which go out, it would rest their inds upon this question.

Painters and <i corat rs are at work or the interior of the Mt- Scott Drug Co., and the appeantnee of this up-to date store has been considerably im proved by the c! -inges. This is the season of the year when ben* arc prolific. Several reliable advertisers of hatching eggs and ba by chicks have ads in the Herald’* cla.-*fied columns. Those wanting to increase th.ir poultry flock» or m.xk«» a start in the chicken business would do well to read the offers. Mr. and Mr*. F. P. Coulter of 92nd street and Mr and Mrs John Graves of <>:07 91st street, motored out to ho home if Mr. and Mrs. S. W. Mor* > *on, near Boring, Sunday morning and spent a most enjoyable day visit ing and helping to devour the fatted calf which Mrs. Morrison had pre pared for th« occasion. An amusing feature of the sewer mpaign occurred Wednesday, when proponents of the project reported to the Herald that the distribution of circulars containing arguments in 'av. r wax being held up for an extra day because of the condition of the streets after the hard rains. It was necessary to give the men doing the work an extra «lay. There will be a musical an«i liter* ry entertainment given for the bene tit of the superannuation fund of the Fvangeiical association in the local church of that sect this (Friday) ev enirg at & o'clock No admission will be charged but an offering will be taken and all are urged to bring as many pennies as they are years old. The affair will be under the super- visi-n of the Y. P. A., and the pro gram which has been arranged is an xcellent one. A reader of the Herald writes to is as follows: “We wonder what the -ents people are. going to do about 'he typhoid and other germs the Kern Park and Arleta sewer peopl* .ire bringing us and leaving in an open ditch to run from the Estacada ear track to Johnson Creek arid on town the creek to the Willamette river. We had better think twice be fore we say yes to such a vital ques tion.” We would suggest to the inquirer that if there is any abuse of sanitation rights that the matter be taken up with the county health au thorities.

We’ll have that bill to meet some day. Instead of having it come all at once wv can now start paying in ten annual in «tallnu-nt for that part of it which Is now absolutely necessary. Then when the time comro for the sanitation sewer we’ll have the trunk from 52d o Johnson Crock built and yhollx or nartly paid for and will be better able to MBumc additional corta.

Mr. uann did make such a statement, but in the next breath (and concerning his our opponents remain silent) he aid that his figure included not only he cost of the Johnson Creek drain- sewer but hard surfacing of the trt-its, laying sidewalks, connecting f tne drainage trunk with another runk for »anita'.ion sewer, putting n laterals, connecting the hous«;s i. ' n ..ition sewer system ami dl other possible improvements. He .dmitted, and it has been forcibly irougnt out in council and by the city ngineers, that the cost of $30 for a O-foot lot and $.,«.50 for a 50-foot ot for the Johnson Creek drainage e*< r x ould not and could not be ex- ed; in fact, pnvate contractors ■ave istimated that the bids on the roject would run considerably under he engineer’s estimates t did not go on, after . ng Mr. .M inn, and quote City onimissioner Harbour, who, immedi- tely dfter Mr. Mann's statement, de- iared that the only thing the prop- erty - rs were now being called on to der ide was the Johnson Creek sew- r ... 1 . t all the other items in i'. de< in Mr. Mann’s figures would come only at such time as the prop- «rty owner: asked for them. rh. P. R. I.. & I’. Co. is definitely opo«« i to this project. President i rank I in r. Griffith and Vice-Presi- ent, franklin I. Fuller, definitely stated to members of the city com- tmssion that they would oppose the mprovement of Foster Road. Why? IP cauM- in m "2nd street to 72nd treet the P. R. L. A P. Co. tracks e adjacent ; ■ ..nd parallel to Foster Road: that as abutting property own- t rt the P. It I.. & P. Co. would be sw sed heavily for the improvement >f the road and for the sewer. That - r cape tins assessment the com an would be forced to move its rm's to the center of the Foster I toad ami ded its right of way to the ity, and would be under a great ex- , ense, n A only for paving between he tract«, but for moving it« tracks and putting in standard rail« in place of the two streaks of Hist now * trying as trac .s along the 20 blocks in question. And all this expense wou’d have to be borne without one penny of added revenue. No, the P. R. L A P. docs not want this im provement made. I have said that improvement of Foster Road hinges definitely on the carying out of the newer project. Thin is not an unauthori7ed state ment. City Engineer Laurrgaard has definitely stated that no way of making the improvement possible ran lie devised as economically other than by providing the drainage af forded bv the Johnson Creek project. The city commissioners having, ax they should have, absolute faith in their engineers, have taken the posi tion that no money ahall he spent in road improvement which will onlv be w-ax’od through lark of drainage. Foster Road is now built up above grade.
