with the reaervolr by a special main
at an eatlmated cost of J3I50.
Albright, when Engineer Miller com
pleted his report, declared that It was
time the elevator was running and
moved that the city ask for bids to lay
a main from the reservoir to the eleva
tor. The Oregon Engineering & Con
atmctlon company, which has a con

Albright's motion that the city call
fnr bids met with opposition and aev
eral councllmen asked "Where will
you get the money?" and "Get the
money first."
Meyer contended that the laying of
this main would not be a loss. He
declared that "at some time In the

a service main and that now It could
be Installed at a saving of $1000. He
described the situation as a "saving
in the long run."
Albright, Metxner. Long. Meyer. An

the special main to the reservoir and
to install an air chamber at the ele
vator. Hackett brought to the mind of the
council the budget. "Have you for

ing that he needed this list to carry
out his plan of straightening out all
unpaid sewer and street assessments.
The lunk ordinance, which would
compel all buyers of junk to keep a
list of purchases and to hold articles

laid on the table on motion of Albright
who denounced the measure as "radi
cat and rotten" and declared that It
was a "company ordinance" fathered
by local mills.

Owlne to a mistake made by the
city in the cooy of the measure pre
pared for publication, the jitney ordi
nance was brought up again for first
