COUNCIL MEETS
Civic Betterment League Solicits
the Aid of the Aldermen
At the regular meeting of the
'V city council Tuesday evening
-; Rev. J. J. Patton, representing
the Civic Betterment league oi
St. Johns, solicited the co-oper
ation of that body in beautifying
the city and making a little more
clear the moral atmosphere. He
stated that the league now had
100 members, had so far held
five meetings, and that the ob
ject of the organization was
wholly for the betterment of
civic conditions. One of the
things the league finds offensive,
he stated, was empty store
rooms with windows filled with
posters and various announce
ments, which in many instances
were past date. While ho realiz
ed that this was a matter of per
sonal privilege with the owners,
yet he believed moral suasion
could be brought to bcur in such
a manner that the practice would
bo discouraged and eventually
abolished. Another feature tu
ken un bv the leuiruo was the
beautifying of vacant lots, and
reaidencu mid hiiHinoHa tirotiorlv
also the streets kept in a cleanly
. manner. Card playing in the
cigar rooms on Sundays is a feat
uro tho league desired to have
eliminated, also. Rev. Patton
took occasion to state that undue
and annoying noises uro made
by young men on tho sidewalks
in mo vicinity oimunnx, uhuui
ly whenever dances are held
therein. Singing and boisterous
conduct, ho claimed, prevented
slumber in that neighborhood
until a late hour. The league also
requested that an anti-expcctor-
ation ordinance be passed, penal
izing all for using tho sidewalks
as n cuspidor. On motion of Al
dcrman Martin, tho counci
pledged its support and co-oner
ation in making a morobcautifu
be, Johns, and a committee con
sisting of Alderman Davis and
Martin was appointed by tho
mayor on motion of council to
enter into details with tho lea
gue in regard to the matters
mentioned.
R. Gradcn asked that a little
street repair work bo dona on
Oswego street at Fessenden.
Street committee directed to
moko tho necessary repairs.
Tho matter of insuring the fire
department against illness and
accident, which was broached
last week was laid over for fur
ther consideration upon request

Tho property upon which tho
hose house on Polk street is
situated having been sold, tho
building was ordered removed to
directly across tho street.
Upon recommendation of tho
light committee, an arc light
was ordered installed at the cor
ner of Bank and Burr streets.

The West Side Booming
Richard Shepard, who has been
dealing in West Side realty for
the past five or six years, paid
this ofllco a visit last week. He
states that the west side will en
joy the greatest boom of any su
burb of Portland this year, Ono
of the things he says is bound to
happen is the erection of the St.
Helens hall and contributory
buildings on the 24 acre tract re
cently purchased for that purpose
on the bluff at the northwest
boundary qf Whitwood Court,
and that the estimated cost of
the buildings is $260,000. Also
that a street car line connecting
therewith will be built through
Whitwood Court before tho year
closes, arrangements for which
are now being completed. The
Hamburg American Steamship
Line, he avers, will also con
struct huge docks just north of
the North Bank bridge, that sev
eral new industries have practic-
ally been secured, besides num
erous residences and business
houses will be erected.

For two years tho mill has

The new building is to be of
