A Portland contractor has been
awarded the contract for the road
improvement between Willamette and
Oregon City. This consists of a 1500
foot stretch on the hill. The work of
cutting down the hill and widening
the fill has been begun. This is all
that will be done this fall and it is
hoped that the paving will be laid
next spring. This will complete the
only gap in the pavement between
Willamette and Portland on the west
side as the Bolton gap is expected to
be completed before the opening of
the Oregon City bridge in December.

PASSIVE INTEREST
IS NOW MANIFEST
IN CITYELECTION
Eight Offices to be Filled At
November Election; Dearth
Of Candidates Is Imminent
For Positions on Council.
SHANNON UNOPPOSED "
IN MAYORAUTY RUN
Three File for City Recorder;
City Attorney Race Still
Open; Petition Time Short.
Eight city offices are to be filled at
the election in November. Approxi
mately two weeks remains for the fil
ing of petitions of nomination, and in
only one office so far, definitely ap
pears opposition. This is the office
of city recorder. The others to be
filled are councilmen, one from each
ward making ftur in all, mayor, city
attorney, and city treasurer. .
Unless something happens, Oregon
City will probably have to hang out
the "men wanted" sign for at least
three of the councilmanic positons.
I. C. Brdges, F. H. Cross, and J. E.
Jack and R. J. Hodgson are the re"
tirng members of the council.
Bridges May Run.
' Only Bridges Is definitely .being
talked as a candidate for reelection.
There have to date been no filings for
any of the council positions and none
of the present incumbents have filed
for reelection.
James Shannon has filed his peti
tions for reelection as mayor and so
far is unopposed. Political dopsters
have groomed no one else for the
mayorality and the prospects are that
the chief municipal executive will be
unopposed.
C. W. Kelly, recorder, has filed his
petition's for relection, and will sbe
opposed by J. H. Llnzberg, and J. K
Morris. It is regarded as probable
that R, E. Woodward will enter the
run for recorder.
Eby Is Candidate.
For city attorney, O. D. Eby, the
present incumbent has already filed
for reelection, and is at present the
only candida t in the field. During the
summer, Chris' Schuebtl, former city
attorney, was being groomed for the
position, but no statement as yet has
been forthcoming regarding his prob
able candidacy.
George Swafford, at present city
treasurer, has filed for reelection and
in all probability will meet with no
opposition.
The improbability of any fight this
year over the mayorality and the lan
guid interest being manifested in the
city council positons, indicates that
the city election this year will not
brook the interest of former cam
paigns, nor is it generally expected
that any issues will crop up in the
coming half-month which will lend
particular zest to the regular election
as far. as the municipality itself is
concerned. The presence of clear
cut and intriguing matters in the state,
and perhaps on the county ballot, also
has a tendency to subordinate local
politics.
