DAVIS A little surprise was sprung on the city council and property owners present and in favor of the improvement of Smith ave nue by Councilman J. VV. Davis ai UlC last muuunjr 01 me coun oil on Tuesday n.'irht last. After attending to the ordinary routine of business up to about nine-thirty, the council, being then ready for the passing 'of resolutions for the improvement of various streets (profiles and estimates of four or five propos ed improvements laying on the table) Councilman Davis moved to adjourn council. Mayor A. A. Muck,knowing that the proposed imnrovomont of Smith avenue was up for passing, and putting tho duestion up to Councilman Davis as chairman of the street committee: "How about Smith avenue?" got tho answer from Mr. Davis: "The city engineer has not finished his estimate ant is not ready with his specifica Hons." or words to that effect. So council adjourned. Right after adjournment 1 light dawned upon several coun cilmen that this motion, for ad journment was put by Council man Davis lor tne sole purpose of holding up the improvement of the street in question, and for political reasons to please or get the vote of a certain crowd. Hy looking over the papers on the table of tho Council chamber, tho profile and estimates were found, beimr filed and recorded with the city recorder three days before the meeting. It had been reported that Coun cilman Davis had personally tri ed to influence the city engineer lug department by telling the assistant engineer not to finish up the estimate for the Improve ment of Smith avenue, because ho (Davis) was going to fight this improvement and the same would never go through. This re 1 )oil beimr nut up sminrc to Councilman Davis, he could not deny having tried to bluff tho department into submission to his personal interests. I do not want to discuss fierc at length the merits of the im provement of Smith avenue, but want to call tne attention or tho iroporty owners interested to the fact that Mr. R. Hrand, rep resenting Mr. Holbrook, stated n Tuesday night's council meet ng how the continuation of this improvement to the hast St. nnvl-ur wtijiuii RIGHTS Jersey is prepared to see. Johns depot is being held up by the Portland council for the sole purpose of being in conformity with the improvement tp be mado by St. Johns. Now, Mr. Voter, suppose you had in mind to have your street improved, would you vote for and would you like to be repre sented in council by a man who had to resort to untruthfulness and underhand work in order to possibly catch a couple of votes? I think you would not mind to have a Councilman havo an opin ion of his own, as long as he is fair and impartial anu works for the interest of the city and not for a certain' clique. Vote ac cordingly.-R. J. Kinder, 1102 Smith avenue, south. raid ndrertlement Makes Himself Clear Editor Review: Last Tuesday evening while discussing con ditions on Willamette Boulevard before tho city council while in the act of showing tho indebt edness as well as wealth and great growth of our city I was interrupted in tne middle ol a sentence and an unfinished thought, which interr ption and unfinished sentence left the im pression on tho minds ot some that I was making an attack on the present city administration. Nothing was farther from my mind. On several occasions I have stated in public that II believed Mayor Muck's admin istration an honest one. and in tended for tho wolfaroof the city. This I still believe. Mr. Muck's stand on all city questions has been opon, frank and courageous and generous and his whole courso for the intended good of the city aB I believe. Tho city council or cltyofliccrs should not be censured for things they are not guilty of. U. (J. Lewis. "What made you so late?" "I met Smithson." "Well, that is no reason why you should be an hour late get ting homo to supper." "I know, but 1 asked him how ho was feeling, and ho insisted on telling mo about his stomach trouble." "Did you tell him to take Chamberlain's Tablets?" "Sure, that is what he needs." bold by all dealers.
