All responded to thu ivll cull Ht the
adjourned meeting of the council Ttien
dity evening. Tin' Hist matter taken up
was the ordinance for a system of sewer
se in the lower part of the city which
had p.ed to second readiui! There
was a o.kI deal of informal dincusslon of
the sewer plans and the conclusion was
reached that tin ortlinnure U'lore the
house would not serve the pniptwo then
in view because the counciluien had la-
convinced that many cliange
should be made, Kith in the Intercut of
economy and of better service, and
w ould lie easier to construct a new
oi di -
nance thun to change the one ahvady
drawn to meet the view of the council.
, s0 this ordinance waslabled and the city
attorney and surveyor were instructed
j to preimre a new ordinance on the sub-
ject in conformity to plans submitted by
him. A motion was carried, however,
declaring it to be the sense of the council
that tho new ordinance, provide that the
Main street sewer be buried seven or
eight feet and the side street sewer not
less than six feet.
The ordinance providing a penalty for
any person battling in public in a nude
state w ithin the city was put upon Its
passage and lost by a tie vote. Aye
Latourette, Cochrane, Porter and Will
iams; noes, OVonnell, Charnun, Ran
dall and Noble.
A petition f jr the transfer of the liquor
license of John Cobcrry toN.B. Uruce
was granted, the transferee to pay all
coats of the transfer.
Ijttourette moved that two more In
condescent lights be erected, one at the
head of the Sixth street steps and the
other at the corner of Flffh and High
street. Noble amended by adding a
light for the city jail. A discussion en
sued pertaining to the hiding of street
lights by t'ee. Cochrane thought the
trees interferiiiK w ith the utility of street
lamps should be cut down or pruned
though he had understood before the new
lamps were erected that they were to lie
suspended over the middle of the streets,
I in which case the trees would not hide
their liwdit Latourette championed the
cause of the trees. He thought thry
were a comfort and an ornament that
ought no' to la ruthlessly destroyed.
Kandull expressd the opinion that street
lightinif wu costing the city lo much
and that additional expense ought not
to be incurred or that purpose. The
I motion was put to vote and the council
i broke even, O'Connell, Charman. La-

! no U ''"voiced uon the mayor to cast
j deciding vote, which he did in the,
'"iii.e, '"-' oci.eve.i tne
! additional lights necessary ami that he
was willing to stand his share uf the
extra eiiense incurred in supporting
them .
The bid of Hugh Peters for grading
Washington street one block south ol
Seventh street was received, ar.d there
being no other bidders and the figures
named by him being within the estimate
furnished by the city surveyor, he was
awarded the contract on bond of fVK),
His bid was 13,',' cents per cubic yard
for earth, 35 cents for loose rock ,24 cents
per foot for four-foot and 23 cents for
six-foot crosswalks, 10 cents per yard
for macadamizing, $'J5 for rolling, ;;
cents per yard for excavating ditch and
$12 per M for planking ditch.
The publication of the notice of the
assessment and amounts due for this
improvement w as ordered. '
The recorder was instructed to notify
the Oregon Telephone & Telegraph com
pany that unless its poles in this city
should 1j immediately painted as re
quired by ordinance its franchise
would be revoked and the poles removed
from the streets.
The bill of Sidney Smyth, fl27, which
laid over lust week was taken up and
allowed. There was-some discussion
about claims for extras for construct
ing the steps up the bluff on account
of the fact that city warrants are below
par, but it was decided that it would not
he practicable to allow such claims if
presented.
Attention was called to the fuct that
the ordinance pertaining to cattle wear
ing bells and running at large at night
was not enforced and the mayor was re
quested to have it enforced.
Then came up again the ordinance
restraining "horses, mules, cattle, sheep,
swine, goats, geese and ducks" on
motion of Cochrane for reconsideration.
In mating the motion he said that since
the vote on the measure he dad taken
pains to look about the city with social
reference to notice the effects of permit
ting cattle to run at larite in the city and
he was convinced that be had done
wrong in opposing the passage of the
ordinance. Some parliamentary spur
ring was indulged in and then Wilkinson
got the floor and waxed eloquent in
denunciation of the measure, but when
the question was put his was the only
no recorded. Latourette gave notice
that he would move for aguin reconhider
ing the matter at the next metting.
The mutter of adequately improving
the eastern connections of Seventh strcot
was referred to the committee on streets
and. public property with power to act.
The trestircr was instructed to prepare
for the council a list ot theSeventh street
delinquents and the council adjourned to
meet Monday evening.
