THE ST. JOHNS REVIEW BY A. W. MARKLE Punllshod Every Friday At 117 West Uurllncton Street. Tint RHVIKW Is entered nt post office In Saint Johns, Oregon, ns mnll Matter of the second class under the Act of Con gress of March 3, 1879, Offlcltl Nwpper of tbs City of 8t Jehns. Subscription prleo $1.00 par year. Some exceptions have been ta ken to the comment made on At torney Perkins' article in last week's Review concerning Wil lamette boulevard, and it has even been chawed that wo have favored those contenders for a 100 foot street. This is a mis take. We have favored a 100 foot street no more than wc have favored an 80 foot street in the Uoview. In fact, there are sov oral reanons why wo would be in- clinod to the latter more than the former, provided it was m con cord with the records. The comment last week was based itiion the nrciiumntinn that Mr. Perkins stated the simple facts in the case without exaggeration. If ho erred, as some would have us believe, the comment neces sarily erred also, remaps no comment should have been made, since the (iitestion is of such del icacy. However, it was not our intention to oflond or "butt in," but rather to note the obvious re sult that Mr. Perkins' communi- q&mmM SSTS FlaL. 55rt Grocery Specials to Freedom Huililinir permits l i uicycie licenses 9.00 3.00 Dog licenses 3.00 Liquor licenses 2,400.00 2G0.G0 30.00 00.00 Continued from first page vested by GOO men, thus placing control in the hands of the major ity of men.

Then it may bo years before the property will attain sulllcient value lo stand for full improvement of the street oiirhty feet wide. Audit is iiuilo certain that the public will not care to help pay for im provement for more than that width. As we see it. tho e ty and the property owners tiro just about as well -oil' if this street shall over remain 80 feet wide. If tho time for appealing the case has expired, as has noon assorted by parties Inturostud. tlioro is untiKhl to do but abide by Judire McGinn s decision, am lot it be eighty foot. As a mat- tor of fact it has never been clearly demonlraled to our satis faction that a street for any pin ioho more than entity feet wide in a necessity, ii not nccesst ty it must Ik m luxury, and whether it is olicy for tt city to njrni lor a luxury is iiouiitiui at host. Washiuutoii street in Port land is, we bolieve. only sixty foot wide, and any one who has occasion to cross that street can readily attest that sixty feet is plonty wide enouuh to dodire street cars and vehicle.

Electricity can be used in any quantity, large or small, thereby furnishing any required amount of light. Furthermore, electric lamps can be located in any place, thus affording any desired distribution of light. No other lamps possess these qualifications, there fore it is not surprising that electric lamps are rapidly replacing all others in modern establishments.
