Majority of Alderman Still Favorabl To Granting Perpetual Fran chiao. s The only aatlafartlon the membera of the rliitena' committee received at a conference held Monday evening with the city council waa that the Southern f'acl fin fram-hlae ordinance, now under con aldrrutlon, will be rrvla.d before brlni placed on final paaiiue. In what re Kpecta the ordinance will be amended, the membera of the council were care ful fi keep to themaelvei although C'oun cllmun Kix'rner, who la the principal pokeamun for the majority of the coun cil which fjvora arantins a perpetual franchlae to the railroad company, Intl mut.'d that the council will refuae to limit to twenty-five years th life of the fran.hlae. Hut the opposition to the ordinance aa orlKlnull)' prearnted has by no means leen upiieiiaedj The ordinance, as II may be revlm-d by the council rauat be republished Ixfore It la finally voted on and If the .rolalns of the franchise as amended are not aatlefacu.ry to the citlzriia committee, then the threatened Injunction proceedings may be Invoked I to preient the enactment of the objec tionable ordinance. Monday niuht's conference ' not largcl)' mtendrd. although every member of the citizens committee, and a num ber of olhrr prominent business men, to g.lb.r with all of the member f' the cotiiii il. with the exception of Alderman Htory, were In attendance. Attorney J. !:. ll.-.lij.-s, nr. behalf of the committee, level. -wed the ordinance, section by sec tion, mid outlined the objections of the t ltileim to the ordinance us It had been prcpari'd as publlkhcd. T. W. Hulllvan. f. II. live. V. 8. 1' I'.en. V. A. Huntley, and f. H. faullrld endorsed whut Mr. H..l. Biil.l, the two former geiuleinen ep.uklnit at some length on the subject. The inn In point of objection offered by Ml .IrdaeS Was the IlldetilllteneKS of the iiiinlslona of the ordinance as per taining to the part to be performed by the railroad company. He claimed that the only d.-tlnile piovlulon ia, the ordi nance waa that work on the proposed linproi einents should not be commenced by the railroad company within thirty days after the enactment of the ordi nance which provided that the Impiove inriiis wete to be made according to plans and specification to lie prepared niil,.i i. nt to the paiwage of the ordl n Hoc, 'he terms and conditions of the plana and st-ciflcallons to be mutually s.itifuctory , to Isith the city and the 11,1)1. id coeaimnv. I'ndrr these condl 'VIuIih. tlie speaker doubted that the city could ever arrive at a mutually satis factory understanding with the rail road coin-any and at the same time serve the best Interests of the city. This he said would surely result In endless and expensive litigation to the city to the gain of the railroad company which, he alleged, would, from the passage of the onllnuncc. enjoy the privileges that were granted thereby. Maor Iilmlck took exceptions tu Mr. Iledgea' line of argument and inquired If it were not a fact that by the terms of the ordinance itself the railroad com pany under no consideration would have the right to the privileges conferred by the ordinance until the corporation had fiilllllrd all the considerations under which the franchise was granted and to the mutual satisfaction of Iwth part ies to the contract; that the Fronting of the franchise depended on the perform ance of every condition subscribed to by the railroad company, otherwise It was to tie without effect. Mr. Hedges would not concede the point. Mr. l"Keii. speaking for the cltilcns' committee, addressed the council and slated that the committee. Just before the conference, had a short meeting, and drafted a number of suggestions thut they desired Incorporated In the ordi nance before II would be acceptable to that committee and the large number of cltilcns represented thereby. The sug gestions were as follows: That the franchise be limited to a term of twenty-five years. That the railroad company maintain gates iind flagmen ut the Singer H"l and t'ongregational church crossings. That all foot crossings at the under ground subways should lie ut least I'D feet wide and feet high. That the city reserve the right ut any time in the future to provide additional overhead or sub-way crossings, provided the overhead crossings Ik' at least L'O feet clear of the track. That the Third street team under- gliiimil ciossitig be L'.i feet Wide and l.'i feel high with sidewalks for pedestrians Mi feel Idc. That the i ii i 1 1 1 ... . 1 company maintain, light luid clean all the underground tramways and subways without cost to the city. That the connrcllons at tile South Knd road at tile Thiid street crossing lie niailc ace. nling to the established grade. That the plans and specifications for the making of the improvements be sub mitted and made a part of the ordinance at the time it is passed. That the failure on the part of the rail road company to perform any part of the conditions piYscrlbed in the ordinance, shall In itself work n forfeiture of the fuinchlse. at the option of the city. That the railroad company be rciiuircd to pave Its tracks for a distance of Is Inches beyond the rails where the Im provement of a street may be ordered by the council. That the sub-way ut Seventh street must be Installed in such R manner as not to increase the present grade of the Seventh strerl Steps. That the lime of the beginning of the work by the railroad company and the time in which the improvements shad In completed nuo-l Ik' clearly spccilicd with in the ordinance. The reading of these suggestions to the counsil resulted In more or less talk on the part of some of tin- councllmen and when one of the most loquacious members of that body began to quote I'anlel Webster and waa wandering aw.iy from the subject under consideration. iouncilman Knapp brought the urgu ment to an appreciable termination by offering a motion that the ordlnunce be revised, The motion prevailed by a unanimous vote and before the member of the citizens' committee had time to Inquire In what respects the ordinance would be corrected, a motion to adjourn waa stated and passed, and the aston ished members of the committee left the council chamber wondering what they had come to the conference for. BUILDINGS ARE CROWDED. School Board May Have to Provide Ad ditional Facilities. liecause of the crowded condition of the Oregon City school buildings, the members of the board of director are considering the matter of erecting a portable building and employing an ad ditional teacher as a solution to the con gested condition of the two buildings.
