FINISH UP CENTER STREET
Considerable Routine Business
of More or Less Importance
Transacted by Council
Wednesday Night
of
, The city conucil held the regala
September session Wednesday night
in the city hall. Probably the most
important business done was the read
ing for the first time of the ordinance
providing for the improvement
Third street from Main street to Rail
road Avenne. This will afford an ap
proach to the city from the new South
End road.
The final estimate of the cost of the
improvement of Center street was sub'
mitted to the council and amounted
to $1509.11. A warrant for that
amount in "favor of the contractors
,was ordered drawn.
An ordinance creating Sewer Dis
trict No. 4, was passed by the council
and an ordinance establishing the
time and manner of construction of
sewers and connections in that &ia-
trict was read the first time and or
dered published. This new district
takes in a small territory on Jefferson
and Madison streets between Seventh
and Eighth.
Applications for renewal of saloon
licenses from Messrs. Cole, Brady
and Nehren were granted.
A petition presented by J. W,
Church asking to be allowed to con
struct a platform on Railroad Avenue
in front of his warehouse was referred
to the streets and public property com
luittee with power to'act.
, The usual bills Jiof the month were
ordered paid.
The cooncilmen from the Third
ward were instructed to confer with
the Portland f General Electrio Com
pany in regard to a light at Elyville.
The committee on streets and pub
lic property was instructed to connect
Center street with the South End road
at a cost not to exceed $150.
It was decided to offer Mrs. Fannie
Cochran $150 for a strip three feet
wide from her property on Washing
ton street between Eleventh and
Twelfth streets in order to widen an
alley.
WAS FINED FIFTY' DOLLARS.
Proprietor of Wilholt Springs Found
Guilty of Assault.
Frank McClaren, proprietor of Wil
hoit Springs, was given a hearing be
fore Justice Stipp on Tuesday, charged
with assault on William Holt. Several
witnesses testified for both sides in
the case. It was shown that McClar
en struck Holt on the head with a
baseball bat, but the landlord of Wil
hoit stated this was in self defense, as
he and Holt had had blows prior to
the stroke with the bat. McClaren
was found guilty by Justice Stipp and
fined $50. He immediately appealed
the case to the circuit court and de
pos ited $100 bonds.
CAPITAL IS INTERESTED.
Representative of Eastern Men Con
sidering Motor Line.
A representative ofj Middle West
capital was in the city Thursday in
conference with Mr. Charles Clark of
Clackamas, and others interested in
the propeosed motor route from Clack
amas to Oregon City and Portland.
He is this week making careful in
spection of the county and the oppor
tunities it offers in the way of motor
roads, for the parties who have com
missioned him to make the trip wait
on his recconmendations and are in
terested in the building of electric
railways here.
The man who has been sent out to
spy out the land will also go as far
south as Eugene in looking over the
field, and it is quite possible that his
recommendations will bring a motor
line paralleling the present route of
the Southern Pacific in the Willam
ette valley. - f-

Sheriff John JR. Shaver, who she al

' At a meeting of the ladies of the
Lewis and Clark Club Tuesday after
noon at the home of the president,
Mrs. GeV A. Harding, the matter of
changing the name of the club and
separating from the State Lewis and
Clark Clubs- was discussed and fa
vored. The reason for this is that the
local has lacked direction from the
state organization since the clubs
were organized in this state. The
ladies here have been anxious to ac
complish work for the Lewis and
Clark fair, but the work has dragged,
and this has been occasioned by the
total lack of co-operation from the
state club.
It is thought that if the ladies of
Oregon City take matters into their

Fire la flophouse.
The hophouse on the Staben ranoh
at Shubel had a narrow escape from
loss by fire Wednesday morning. Had
the flames not been quiokly discov
ered by men nearby, it would have
oeen totally destroyed. As it was
they quickly put out the flames. The
fire started from the stove and spread
up the walls between the studding and
the lath. At the time there were 115
boxes of hops drying, aud one corner
of the floor was spoiled. Trie damage
probably amounts to about $100. A
Chinaman has the yard rented and
ad no insurance on the house, but he
came to Oregon Citv Wednesday after
the accident happened and insured the
house. Picking commenced at the
Staben yard on Monday.
