Mllwaukie Man May Step Into Mayor Schlndler's Shoes Next Year. Philip Strelb, elected Councilman at the recent municipal election in Mll waukie for one year, is the logical successor to Mayor Wllllan Schind ler, who has been at the head of the city government of the pioneer town since it was incorporated five years ago. It is conceded that Mr. Streib will be the administration candidate for Mayor a year hence, all other things corresponding to the pro gramme. Ho was nominated for one term councilman for that purpose. His personal popularity was attested when he ran ahead of his ticket at the re cent election. . However much the opposition to Mr. Streib may disapprove of his policy it Is conceded that he is a public-spirited man and wants to see Mllwaukie ments will be circulated all together, sonic Temple on Sixth and Main Streets in this city.. He understands the situation with reference to the Southern Pacific Company seeking right of way through the town. With tha ntfcoit momllfirH of the Council Mf Streib is committed to the determin ation to use the funds on hand to complete the City Hall so it may be used for public purposes. It has been asserted that Mllwau kie has made no progress since it was incorporated, but this is a slander on the town. It, has made substantial progress, more In five years than for 40 years before. A careful estimate shows that more than $100,000 in im provements and new houses have been made at Mllwaukie. Among these are the Evangelical Church, the shingle factory, the City Hall, the Grange Hall, rebuilding of residences and erection of something over 75 cottages, BANK IN FINE'SHAPE. cmmiiu m-j W. L.
