Sundav for the noticing of the park.
The council thought the benefits
derived were cental to the amount
assessed and refused to take any
action in the matter.
The telephone franchise came up
mid was the cause of considerable
discussion. The telephone people
are of the opinion that the building
of a central station aim tne employ
incut of three persons and a lineman
should be .sufficient compensation
to the city for a franchise. At
present there are 108 phones in the
city. Orders are in for nine more.
They think the payment of 2 1-2
per cent of the gross earnings would
work a hardship on them. They
are willing to pay 5 per cent of the
net earnings. The council is of the
opinion that the franchise is worth
soiiieihiiiL'. On motion of Aid.

week. Later it was moved by Aid.

To the Honorable Mayor and

Your sKcial committee to inves

building submit the following rcoit:
Witnesses weie called and examined
Ihe same living the suervisiiig
contractor, the .sub-contractor ol the
bnck-woik, the cniieiitcrs and em
ployees who made the foundation,
also the owner and the tenant of the
building, and the city engineer.
The evidence of these we here
with submit.
Your committee made a thorough
examination of the building. It
found that the north wall was out
of etpcudU-ular not to excwil two
and one-half inches at a distance
fioui the gtoiuid of fiom three to
eight feet, but this did not extend
a gieater distance than about one-
third the length of the entire wall.
I he ciacks in the 1101 th wall of the
second floor on the inside indicate a
slight settling ot the building, but
not any moie so than other brick
buildings show ami not of an
alarming uattiie. The evidence
shows tliat the 1101th wall has not
changed its apivarnucc or condition
since it was limit. I lie uniliugs of

MR. THORNDYKE
Has n Pew Wor 's lo Say Regarding
Certain Statements Atndc.
At the school meeting Monday
evening the chairman look occasion
to score me over the back of 1 lie
Review, and, what was also a mat
ter of very bad taste upon his part,
took the liberty of intruding matters
wholly irrelevant to the subject
under discussion upon a good-natured
audience.
It seems that the ill until red
thrust against The Review was
made because t. at one time, made
a charge for the insertion of a set
of resolutions engrossed by the
school-teachers, The present man
agement of The Review nau no
more to do with the charge 011 that
et of resolutions than the august
chairman of the recent meeting hat
to do witli the contract of the late
addition to the school house pos
sihly not so mucin
I here were some things not
touched upon at the meeting M011
day which might have been di
u ssed with pleasure and profit
In advertising for bids for building
why was so little time given th
contractor for figuring? Why were
not Home contractors given an equal
chance with outside bidders? Why
were not plans and specifications
kept in bt. Johns in place of fore
ing prostiectivc bidders to go to
Portland? How did it happen that
a partner of one of the directors of
the school board secured the first
contract and had the lowest bid in
011 the next job? How does it Imp
tieti that the firm selling schoo
supplies to this school owns n bloc
of stock in the oil well being sun
by one of the directors?
Of course these arc trilling que
ries but it might be well to let th
public know something about them
I would not for worlds cast any
siuiiallon Hint there had been undue
iniliiencc used anywhere: but it is
matter of much comment how the
astute chairman, who certainly can
not preside projierly over n meeting
can wield so much iiilltieiicc ove
another member of the board.
ni
1 nere was a ciiaige matic iy me
when I was with The Review for
the insertion of a set of resolutions
and if the same circumstance
should similaily arise once more I
would do as I did. Had I know
that some of the inemler.s of the
board were so "close and near" as
lo refii'e to pay for the work out of
the public funds ami that the teach
ers would have to pay for the saini'

Hut it seems unfair to have The
t . at .
kcvicw uircsitui lor wlint were my
own individual acts. And to this
end I desire to have this cxptaua
lion mane ami the lew suggestion
made as well. And there are othe

Pciiinstiln Hojs.
An iiiteiestiug game of base ha
was played ut the Hill grounds on
orth Jersey street Sunday after
noon lietweeii the Peninsula am
St. Johns clubs. Por a time it
looked as If our boys would suffer
a shutout, but iu the latter end of
the game they got their eyes on the
ball ami swatted it some. Their
opponents played a good, steady
gmue throughout and easily won
the contest by n score of 1 1 to 5
The game demonstrated the fact
that the St. Johns boys are quite
weak wltli the stick. THelr second
baseman also had nu off day nni
was resiHiusible for several of the
runs that were rolled up against the
Home team, A little more practice
and team work would not come
amiss. Gardner, with his steiito
rian voice which could be heard at
over the grounds, gave general sat
isfactiou iu his decisions as umpire.
