Ehall the city establish the precedent of paying tl0 In salaries out of the treasury to workmen for nothing la return, or shall It not? The question arises from the f.ict that the City Council has ordered the payment of that sum of money to la borers in the street-cleaning and prink. lag department for Labor day. although the men did not work on that occasion. The street cleaning I'omraUtse of the Executive Board, having control over the laborers, de clines to pay out the money, but at torneys for the laborers are urging that It be done without dnlay. The street cleaning cnmmlttee nf tne Executive Board yesterday afternoon adopted a resolution for presentation to the, Board, which will meet today, saying; In effect, that the Board feels It should not establish such a prece dent. The resolution seta out that the Board regarded the action of the Coun cil more as an authorization than direction, and that the Board believes It Is unwise to make payment until, a least. Instructed to do so by the Coun ciL PANTAGES CONTRACT LET Tliealcr at Seventh and Alder to Cot $92,000 To Move I.jrlc.

QUIET EASILY -ACCOUNTED Member of Finn of Olds, Worlman aft Kins Says Kntlre Country X-x-pools Portland to Pcvclop Into Great Mart of Trade. That business conditions in the East are fairly good, although New York seems to be suffering to some extent from a local affliction due to strikes and the moving of the retail business district, was the comment made Inst night by A. Holts, or the firm of Olds. Wortman A King, who hue Just re turned from a business trip to the East ern markets. "The situation In New York." said Mr. Holts. "Is not Just what might be desired. New York Is the one pessi mistic place in the country. Sometimes I think thiy ha- e not fully recovered from the shock of U07. "This condition In New York Is large ly due to the change of location of the retail district. There are more rooms vacant in the office buildings in New York than there are In the remainder of the country. The change of the re- tall district is of such an uncertain quantity that realty men and merchants do not seem to understand its move ments. It has gone up as far as Forty second street and no one seems to know where the movement will end. "The one live spot in the country is Portland. Wherever you go in the East and In the Middle WeBt the eye of man seems to be centered upon us. They believe that the city Is to become one of first rank, and that it will grow with rapid strides. "On the whole the country seems to be In a very prosperous condition. Manufacturers believe that we are on the uplift and that the low-tide regis ter will give way to a constantly grow ing business. My brother. M. Holtz. returned to Portland with me. He had not been in this city tor 10 years. He Is fairly dumbfounded. He could not believe, until he aaw It. that the city had grown with such magnificent strides. He Is In the publishing busi ness, being connected with the Chi cs go try uoods Reporter. St. Louis Dry Goods Reporter, Twin City Commercial Bulletin and Boot and Shoe Reporter. It Is his business to keep In touch with the growth of business. He is of the opinion that Portland's future Is with out equal In the country. He has just returned from a trip to the Southern states. Here he found business very good and the entire South enjoying re markable prosperity." SETTLERS NOW ON WAY FIKST BIG PAItTV WILL It EACH DESCHUTES KOAD TODAY.

When Maud Jenlts, who .had previ ously caused the arrest of Ben Jenlts, her husband, for non-support, went in to County Judge Cleeton's court yes terday morning to appear In the case. she explained to the court that she and her husband had made up their differences, and that she had no fur ther complaint to make. This called forth a criticism from the Judge: "This thing will not do," said the Judge. "There has been too much of this going to court with petty quar rels. It takes up the time of the court unnecessarily, is expensive to the county and often Injures the reputa tion of good men. There was nothing further to be done with the Jenlts case, however. than to dismiss It. and the reunited husband and wife went away. FVNEKAL NOTICES. FRET February 52, at 403 Falling street. John r.
