J CLEAN-UP t
IMPORTANT DECISIONS
It is said that a good many people
go to Portland for necessities and
pleasures instead of getting them in
Oregon City. There is a way to stop
this. People trade where they can
get the most for their money and
they enjoy themselves where they
get the most pleasure for the effort
involved. It we want to keep our
trade, our money, and our people at
home, we should make "home" just
a little better than some other place.
In any plan to make a more attrac
tive and greater city, the matter of
cleanliness assumes prime import
ance. Editorially the Telegram deals
with the subject in an .excellent way:
"Practically, it is futile to hope for
the realization of a more beautiful
city if we cannot bring ourselves to
the maintainance of a clean city. We
must first get rid of the habit of
slovenliness and acquire the habit of
idiness and good order before we can
effectually appreciate the value of
the sort of a city we are striving
for. The clean street; the well-kept
residence environment; the compul
sory up-keep of vacant property with
in reasonable limits; the freshening
up with the paint brush; the more
general planting of trees that will
give us uniformly shaded trees by
and by, as well as the more extensive
ornamenting of home premises with
vines and shrubs and flowers, will all
help to make a more beatiful city.
"Clearly, the beginning is now and
with the city that we have rather
than the city we -would" build. En
gender a pride In conditions that
exist and we create the ambition
which will more speedily bring about
the more, magnificent city we have
planned. We must first learn to be
clean, and after that we'll be beau
tiful as a natural consequence."
This common-sense sentiment ap
plies equally well to Oregon City.
Until we first learn to be clean, all
our well-meant efforts to become a
bigger, better city must necessarily
be lpgely fruitless. Not everyone
can subscribe money toward the ad
vancement of Oregon City's welfare,
but certainly everybody can take
part in the vitally Important work of
cleaning up. t

MILWAUKEE, Or., Feb. 17. (Spec
ial.) At a special election the
voters will decide five impor
tane questions: Authority to pur
chase or construct a municipal
water plant by Issuing water bonds
to the amount of $20,000; a new
method of condemning property for
streetextensions; ; power to organ
ize and maintain a fire department;
use of the initiative and referendum,
and providing for biennial efections,
registration of voters and the divis
ion of Milwaukie into wards. '
City Auditor David Matthews has
issued printed statements of these
measures in detail, and begun- circu
lating them to the voters. The most
important measure is the water bond
issue. It is set forth in the act that
Milwaukie is to acquire by condem
nation proceedings or construct a
plaut and acquire Minthorne Springs.
This opens the way for the purchase
of the present water works in Mtl
waukie if terms can be arranged, but
Minthorne Springs are to be the
source of supply. The .bonds are to
run for 20 years, and bear interest
at not less than 3 per cent.
For the creation of a fire depart
ment authority is asked to levy a
special tax of not more than 1 per
cent. It is set forth that the de
partment shall consist of 30 active
members, beside honorary members.
A fire commission of three membes,
of which two shall be members of
the council, is to control the depart
ment. It is provided that there shall
be two fire stations, one near Main
SLrcet and one in the Eastern part
of town. The comfission is author
ized to purchase suitable grounds for
these stations.
The election act provides for bien
nial elections and registration of vot
ers. At present voters are not reg
istered and primaries are not held,
but if this amendment carries voters
must register. ' It is provided that
there shall be two or more wards.
Milwaukie has over 200 voters.
