Judge Orant If. Dlmick wfta the
speaker of the evening and he out
lined the policy of the company and
Its pinna for .the building and operation
of the road. And in the operation It
waa explained that the work of caring
for the lntereste"of Oregon City and
Clnckamaa county waa to be made pos
sible, and It waa further shown that
the good of one section Is the good of
all. .
The Judge called attention to the
needs of the county and to thoee of
the community of which the Orange
hall waa the center. He alao showed
the necessity of more energetic meth
oda In the county than had been the
policy of the past. He Instanced the
Hdod River and Rogue River coun
trlea aa examples of what push and
energy can do. These sections were
no better than our own but the people
living thera had taken a firmer hold on
condttlona and had pushed things to
a euceessful' laaue rather than permit
ting them to drift along.

the drill baa been In the harder aub-
stance.
Indications for oil are getting better

push down the casing. In case a pay

a atop made to ahut off the water.
Aa the water la not Interfering with
the work of drilling, and there la no
paying flow of oil, It la not deemed
necessary to put undue effort forth
to shut it out.
Everything la going nicely and the
continued signs of oil keep up the In

proposition of drilling an Interesting

Council met In special eeasion Fri
day evening at the call of Mayor
Brownell. There were preaent Coun
cllmen Burke, Holman, Roake, Mich
aels and Strickland. The object of
the meeting, as atated by Mayor
Brownell, waa that the city might de
termine what to da In the matter of
the Injunction asked by Ed Story
through his attorney, C. Scbubel, jn
the matter of the Sixth atreet Improve
menu . -
So much baa been aald and done in
thla street improvement on Sixth

Schubel wanted one thing for his
client and Walter Dlmick wanted
another for hla client. Jack Allbright
It waa eaay to aee from the outset
that the attorneys were making fig
ures from an entirely different point
on the atreet and that In reality tbe
difference between them waa not aa,
great aa surface indications seemed to
abow.
After, considerable dlscuasion pro
and con the matter came back to the
tBdilloiaa.4.hire.UI aa. Madlaon
street at the Intersection of Sixth. To
jtet a settlement of tha, whole trouble
and not to do anyone on toe nrwi
too much of an Injury. Councilman
Strickland suggested, that the quea-
tlon of fixing Madlaon atreet be taken
In connection with the work on Sixth.
Me aald he had never been aalisnea
with Sixth, that the hump between
Seventh and Sixth waa a disgrace to
tha atreet. and that aa that atreet
must b fixed some time, and In doing
ao now it would eliminate part oi me
troubla on Sixth, why not do it mow?
Contractor MoffaU aald there had
been a mistake made on Madlaon and
that to get over tbe preaent difficulty
he would undertake to do the work of
rectifying In connection with the Sixth
atreet work at a lump sum which
should be a cheap one. To cut three
ft off Madlaon would aid greatly on
Sixth: thought $1500 would make the
Improvement. It will be neceasary to
run a new grade on Madison rrom
Sixth to 8eventh. taking off three feet
at the .alley and making the" atreet
level as It should be.
8tory. Allbright and 8turrls all
agreed that such a change would come
near aatlsfylng all and Indicated that
there was not likely to be any further
protest. At thla Mr. Strickland moved
that the City Engineer prepare plana
and estlmatea aa to cost ffnd how It
should be done and report at next

Wednesday evening. Curbs are to be
