Any person wishing: to purchase fire arms must first secure from the Chief of Police a certificate of good charac ter, if the City Council passes an ordi nanre that Is being: drafted and which is to become part of one Councilman Cottel caused to be drawn up. It Is the most stringent law ever proposed in Portland, and it is believed that it will sooner or later be enacted and put Jnto force. One of the most stringent features of the ordinance will be a clause which will require that no dealer in firearms shall sell or give a weapon to anyone not havlna; a permit from the Chief of Police, and making it a misdemeanor, punishable by a heavy fine and impris onment for a dealer to sell or give to any person a weapon without such permit. The Cottel ordinance and the proposed new sections are being: redrafted by Assistant City Attorney Tomllnson. and will probably be introduced before the City Council tomorrow. The alarming- Increase in crime, such bs holdups and murders, where the ii ii i I ' ; , ?1 - ... . , , criminals use firearms, has created a strong sentiment In favor of a drastic law that will curb the indiscriminate sale of weapons, and thus, it is hoped, put a stop to wholesale depredations. The original draft of the Cottel ordi nance, to which a new section will be added, Is as follows: Section 1. It shall ba unlawful for", any merrhant or aecond-hand dealer, or any clerk, agent or employe of any merchant or aecond-hand dealer to sell. gis away or dispose of any revoI-er or pistol to anv person at retail, without entering In a book to be kept for the purpose. In the English language, written in ink. at the time of such sale or disposition, the name of the manufacturer, the number and calitvr of such revolver or pistol, the name and ad dress of the person to whom sold, given away or disposed of and the date of such sal, gift or disposition, and requiring the person to whom such revolver or pistol is sold, given away, or disposed of, to sign his or her name in such book opposite the record of such transaction, or to fail, neg lect or refuse to allow th-a Chief of Police of the City of Portland or any police of ficer, to Inspect said book at any reasonable time, or to fail or neglect or refuse to send to the Chief of Police, before the hour of nine 9 o'clock in the morning of any day, a com p let transcript of the entries in said book for the previous day. Section 2. Penalty: Any person violating the provisions of this ordinance shall, upon conviction thereof, be fined In any sum not exceeding one hundred dollars ($100) or Im prisoned for a term not exceeding thirty 3 days, or be both so fined and Im prisoned.

Money From General Fund to Pay for Section in Front of Ex empted Cemeteries. The ways and means committee of the City Council yesterday afternoon recommended the appropriation of 9500 from the general fund to pay for the Improvement of East Stark street, from East Twentieth to East Twenty-seventh streets. This is believed to be the best means of solving the difficult problem of Improving that section of the Base Line road which lies alongside of Lone Fir and the Catholic ceme teries. Under the law cemeteries are exempt from assessment for street im provements. City Attorney Kavanaugh ruled. In an official opinion, that the Council can make an appropriation from the general fund to cover the cost of that portion of the work. A delegation of residents living along the Base Line, otherwise East Stark street, was present to urge prompt ac tion by the committee. It was declared to be absolutely necessary to the health of the community that the improvement be made, as there are places where stagnant pools of water form and are breeding-places of disease. Councilman Rushlight stated that he believed a district assessment would be the better means of solving; the Question, but Councilman Kellaher and the residents along the street protested against any further delay in starting the proceedings and won their point. They have been endeavoring for years to secure an Improved street, but have met with many objections, which al ways resulted In stopping the project. FARMER! -A JiD ' COUNTRY k CHANTS!
