The people who reside In that part of the city, within thu city UiiiHn, are tai pnyem, and lire rnrliilnly nnlltled lo fire, water and police protection the Niilnn ns other parts of tho city, and would submit tlii-Ne matters to the careful consideration of Ihn council ns being very Important, and should rifelvp. In my Judgment, tho earliest coiiNldoratlou I would enriicHtly cull your atten Hon to tho liect'HHlty of some conven lent means of lruiiNKirtutlon by way of a foot bridge ncross the Willamette river, to be constructed some whore lour the woolen mills, to the Pull mills on the went side. It will only hn n iiuns'.lon of n vnry short time, be- rore tho huhmtihIoii bridge, tho only prnsent meiins of crosNlng tho river in Oregon City, will hnvo to be rebuilt or rnconstriiclid. In such an event It would leave the city In a very bad nonunion. I would earnestly recom mend that this matter be taken up mid cnrefully coiiHldernd. with a view of constructing a steel bridge, nt least 1(1 feet In width, with concrete piers unit n plunk floor My understanding being that the land on both ends of the proposed bridge. Is owned by I he I'. Hy. 1 & V. Co. and that they are willing to give the city the right to use their property for bridge puriHiHi'N. It Is probable that a bridge that would unswer the purpose would cost some where between $I2.0;MI nnd $15,(Hift, I would suggest Hint this bridge be built by private subscription, mid I am Informed that n good share of the money ran be raised without much nnd that I would rncom- Nov. 19. lM!l7. makes It a n,llnin,.n. piinlshnhln by a fine not to enoeod II w or by imprisonment In any term, not to exceed fit) days or both flnn and imprisonment, for nny minor to loner or remain around, about or In any suloon, bar room or other place where splrltous, vlnotiN, mult or In toxicating llijuors aro sold or kept for sine oy inn gniss, or to engage In any Knmo of cards, billiards or other giimoN in such saloon, ,ar room or other place. "Or other pluco" would menu pool rooms, etc. After Jan. 10th. IIIII, the force of this city will bo Instructed to arrest any retail liq uor dnulnr who may sell a minor liq uor, uml Ihey will also bn ItiNtructod to arrest and prosecute any minor or pnrin under the age of 21 years who shall, at any time, bo found hanging around any suloon In Oregon City. llinso minor will he prosocutnd Hie same as any other vlolutor of tho city ordinance. I huve concluded to adopt this moans In order to Insure the keeping out of minors of this cUv. from suloon and such places. I am not anxious to ever bo re-elect ed mayor of Oregon City, and I do not. now expect to hold (his place for but one year, but during that year I wunt It undnrHtood that the ordinance of this city are to be enforced und lived up to. I also wunt it uudorstood that liny occupant, owner, proprietor or mumiger of any saloon who opens up his saloon or who enter his saloon after closing hours for I ho purpose of obtaining llipior and passing It out to others, will be prosecuted mid the first liiHtunce I kut this Is known and ran be proved, I shall recommend (hut his license be revoked and that lie be put out of business. mend Hint the city aid In this suli sprlptlon, ns well ns Cliicknmus Coun ty. If this course Is taken nnd the bridge Ih constructed, It will have to be maintained mid kept In repair hy the city, und the consent of the Sec relnry of Wnr would have to bo ob tained for the construction. I would therefore recommend Hint n commit tee of three. In behnlf of the city coun cil, bo appointed to coiiHiilt with a committee of citizens of Oregon City and tho county court, and have them confer with the engineer and obtain estimate of costs and expense, and report insults, ns soon hh possible to the city council, In order that this work may bo pressed In Its earliest completion I desire lo call your nttentlon to the fact that under the law, that gov erns tho city, tho Mnyor Is largely re sponsible for the enforcement of the ordinances nnd the Inwa governing all of Its citizens, and If these laws are not enforced and If favoritism Is show n net ween any individuals or persons, tho blame nnd criticism will Justly rest upon tho Mayor. I have taken an oath, when I nunllfled as Mayor of this city, and In that oath I swore to enforce the laws of this city. Now there Is only ono way that I can live up to that oath and obliga tion, nnd that Is to see that the Chief of Police and the police officers of this city, fairly nnd Justly do their duty. I shall Insist that no gambling of nny character and nature bo done within the city during my Incumbency of this office. I shall nlso Insist nnd this messngo mny he considered dl reel from me to tho police officers. who mny bo horenfter appointed, that I will remove nny mnn who fulls to enforce tho Inws In this respoct, as woll as In respect to keeping minors, no mntter who they nre. out of saloons nnd pool rooms of Oregon City. I wnnl It understood now, that nny vio lation of this rule by nny police offi cer In this city, will mean his Instant removal and discharge from the force. On the other hand, the retail liquor dealers In this city, will be protected by the pollco force. In all their legnl rights, but no more than this will be allowed, and as law abiding citizens, they cannot expect nny more. I nlso wnnt It understood that the retail liquor dealers must close tholr places In accordance with tho time designated by tho ordinances of this city, and of the rules and orders of tho council nnd police force, and any violation of these orders will result In their license bolng revoked and tholr places closed. It has been usual and customary to criticise the. liquor denier and saloon keepers for Boiling liquor to minors. This criticism, If the fact Is true. Is undoubtedly proper, but on the other hand Sec. 9 of Ordinance No. 209, passed Nov. 17, 1897, and approved I sluill Instruct the chief of police mid IiisIhI iiihiii Its being a pari of tho duties of the pollen force of Oregon Hy, that ihey are 10 have a regular beat nnd thai they aro to wulk that beat while they are on duty and lo outer the saloons and when they see person In there, to whom It Is Illegal for retail liquor deulers to sell Intoxi cating liquors, that they remove him from such place. I would also call your attention la tho fact that there hn been a great enl of criticism for many years w hether true or untrue, I do not know, that the pollco officers of this city have spent loo much time In the sa loons of this town. It seems to me that the fault lies with the city authorities mid not with the police of ficers. It Is unfair lo expect a chli of police and other officers lo stand out In the rain and to have their of fice nt nil time on the curb slono or the street ; thero should be gome place or some room provided und furnished in a respectable manner, to the ar commodation of the Chief of Police and the officers, with a telephone and a desk, so that people would know at nil times, where to communicate with the Chief of police, nnd where the pollco officers of the city could make ihelr report and transact their bus! ness In a proer way. I think thai the day men 011 the force, as well as the night men, should have a regulur beat nnd thai they should walk this beat, and when Ihey go off duty should report to the Chief of Pollco, and the other who take their place should come on, and In doing this system can be followed which will satisfy tho public that the laws and ordinances of tho city are being en forced nnd the public will have know ledge of the whereabouts of the dif ferent policemen. As It now Is, It Is Impossible for anyone to know where police officer is or where he can be found under the system that has pre vailed for many years In this city, and which I insist Is not the fault of the police officers themselves, but the fault of the manner and way In which the city officers have iermltted the city nffnlrs In this particular lo be managed nnd conducted. I would recommend that the com mil tee on water and fire, Investigate and report to the council, the pro priety of adopting a fire alarm system for Oregon City. I feel that Oregon City Is greatly Indebted to the Chief of 1 he Kir Department and the fire men of the different companies of Oregon city, for the magnificent work that they did during the last yeur and particularly in their promptness at the lato flro which came very nearlv de stroying tho store of Mr. Frank Hunch and other valuable property adjacent thereto. These companies receive practically no compensation from the city, nnd they certainly ought to have some provision mnde In the way of compensation or in obtaining for these different fire companies proper coats, aps and such hose and other conven iences as may be necessary to assist them In tho performance of their dut ies. I also feel that there ought to be some provision mnde towards pav ing these men something for the loss and dangers they enter In behnlf of tho property owners of this city, and therefore urgently commend this mat tor to the careful consideration of the above committee, as well as to the council as a whole, and suggest that this matter be investigated and looked Into forthwith and report made to the council of some feasible plan that will result In justice to these men. It has been cnlled to my attention by a great many of the peole of Ore gon City, ninny of the property own ers and. tux payers, as well as the Chief of the Flro Department, that since tho construction of the Mnsonlc Building. It has a tendency to deaden the sound of the fire bell over the Fountain Engine House, nnd that It would be much safer in case of fire, If this bell could be removed and plnced upon the hill or bluff, thereby convoying the sound to a greater dis tance In case of fire. This could be arranged so as to have the bell rung from down town ns well ns up on the bluff, by adopting proper methods. I suggest that this matter be taken up by the committee on fire and water and that they confer with the Chief of the Fire Department, and report thereon some fensible plan to secure this much needed Improvement. I would also earnestly recommend tho necessity of tho construction by the city of additional room upon the building occupied by Hose Company No. 5, In order to accommodate and increase the efficiency of said com pany. This could be done at a cost not to exceed J75. Since the advent of the Commer cial Club ns a medium of advertising and publicity, we can all see a general Improvement In Oregon City, as well as Increased activity in different parts of tho county. I would call your at tention along this line to the neces sity to do something towards arrang ing a proper resting placo for women In Oregon City, to bo located on the ground floor. In other words, there never has been any place for many years In Oregon City for a man or woman to rest or spend an Idle hour. except to Btand around in the stores, on the street or go Into a saloon. This Is all wrong; It speaks very badly for the enterprise and public spirit of this city. It would pay the tax payor of this city to build or rent and furnish, In a convenient manner and way, a room where a womnn or child could rest and be accommodated with modern conveniences, when they are hnre In the city on biiNlnes and for tne purpose of trading. In other word tho btiNlni-N people of Oregon City expect and want the trade and hul nn of the farmer and their wlve and children In Clackamas County. und yet thero I nothing done to make It pleasant for theso people or attract ive, for them In any way when they come to our city. If some arrange ment as above Indicated could he pro vided nt public expenses, the city could afford to do this, and could af ford even to run In debt for the pur pone of doing It, a the money would come back In (rude and Increased buNlness ten fold, among tho merch ant and biiNlnes men of this city. I deslro In this-connection to corn mend Mr. Frank Husch for the public Nplrlt which bo tins shown In provid ing a very commodious rest room In hi Moro, for tho public, and also com mend tho person who have arranged rest room In tho Masonic Ilulldlng- Hut there should he ono somewhere between 8th and Cth streets, with lavatory und wa:ih room conveniences attached, on the ground floor.

Coming to the flungalow for all week starting next Sunday matinee, Is "The Chinatown Trunk Mystery," a play dealing with the Chinese situa tion, as found In New York and other large cltle with Chinatowns. To the unsophisticated mind, noth ing, probably appeal more than the ilnsel, the mystery and the blare of a Chinatown. This fact I no doubt, one of the prominent reason why young women, whose every environment has been entirely foreign to such a life, cling desperately, deNplte the advice nnd pleading of Ihelr friend and family, to the idea of a life a a mission work er amongst the Chinese. "The Chinese Trunk Mystery" en deavor In lla humble way to depict Just what such illusions and deter mination almost Invariably lend to and the management has spared no pain and expense in reproducing In all their Oriental splendor the many scenes of New York' Chinatown. Matinee will be given Thursday and Saturday. Sccnlrally. "The Chinese Trunk Mystery" has no superior In melo drama today. The entire nine scene In the four act of rapid fire sensa tionalism displayed at the Ilungalow are beautiful examples of what the scene painter's art has devcl ipcd to In this Country. The play deal exclusively with the Chinese situation in New York and the homicide of Elsie Slgcl. Just what to do when the kidneys lire arfected. Is a question that con corns both young and old.
