Con- ners, papers being served by the Sher iff on H. Fallman and Emily Fall man. of Rex. Mr. and Mrs. Fallman own a tract of land adjacent to the Southern Pacific right of way at Rex, and the Oregon Electric survey, which parallels the Southern Pacific for a short distance, also runs through the tract. When ap proached by the right-of-way agent of the Oregon Electric, Mr. Fallman said that the Southern Pacific wanted to buv the land, and he could not nego tiate, with him. The Fallman land occupies a strate gic position In the gap of the Chehalem Mountains. NEW TRACT TO BL OPENED Thirteen Acres Xear City Park Bought for $45,000.

PRICE OF $1.70 IS MADE Mayor Simon Will Encourage Com petition by Letting Contracts to lowest Bidders Mainte nance Is Abolished. Mayor Simon yesterday' received a letter-telegram from the EIoso Asphalt Company of St. Louis, announcing the intention of its officers to enter the paving business in Portland. The com pany lays asphaltlc concrete paving, and declares in its message that it can lay "a better pavement than bitulithlc for $1.70 a square yard." Bitulithlc is now being; furnished, here for $1.85 a yard. Inasmuch as it is the policy of the administration to encourage competi tion along all lines. Mayor Simon will assist the Eloso Company in its efforts to get into business In Portland, by awarding contracts to it in case it submits the lowest bid. This is the treatment to be accorded to all con cerns, he declares. The Mayor feels pleased by the man ner in which paving is being done in Portland, and declares that there will be many first-class' thoroughfares In Portland by Fall. He Is especially glad of the elimination of the burden some maintenance, which the city was paying when he took office last July. The administration lets no more of these oontracts, but requires the com pany laying a pavement to guarantee the work for five years. If it lasts that long, the City Engineer declares, it will last ten years without repairs. The letter of the Eloso Asphalt Com pany said: "We are advised of conditions exist ing in paving matters at Portland. We have extensive equipment and facilities for mixing and laying asphaltlc concrete ' paving. We have pavements over 18 years old that are like new, with no cost for main tenance. We will install equipment In Portland with capacity to mix and lay 1000 to 4000 square yards pavement per day; will contract to construct a better pavement than bitulithlc for less than $1.70 per square yard.

OCCUPANCY STILL DESIRED Smith House in Mount Tabor Park Subject of Resolutions. While desiring that the city should take possession of the Mount Tabor Park tract, both the part already se cured by purchase and the part yet to be secured through condemnation proceedings, as soon as possible so the public may use the park, the Mount Tabor Push Club adopted a resolution Monday night, at the meeting held In the Mount Tabor sanitarium, favor ing the occupancy of the Smith resi dence In the park until the city does take possession. Dr. Arthur F. Chance, who lives in the Smith house, was present and asked that such action be taken by the club as he was being annoyed by peo ple coming to the house on the sup position that it belongs to the city. The property on which the house stands is in litigation, but hundreds who visit Mount Tabor do not under stand why the city does not take pos session of the house and make it a rest place for the public It was the sentiment that if the residence should be vacated, the premises would be damaged. It is reported that the City Attorney believes the city can give bonds and take possession of the whole park tract at Mount Tabor and throw It open to the use of the public. The committee on music was Instructed to ask that several band concerts be pro vided for Mount Tabor this season. In the matter of extending Belmont street from East Sixty-second to Ta bor Heights, it was reported that two property-owners were holding out for more money than the viewers had al lowed them, but that tne whole busi ness would be settled in the court within a few weeks. It was the unani mous sentiment of the meeting that Belmont street must be extended to Tabor Heights as soon as it can be brought about.
