The only farther requirement is that the franchise be properly advertised la the city official paper, which Is purety routine. The company la now at liberty to proceed with Its business here. The Taluatloa fixed by the Executive Board virtually precludes the consolida tion of thta company with any other, and provides for the payment of S per cent of the arose earnings for any power sold to a compettnr company. Two and one-half per cent of the sroes earnings on other power sold within the city la called for. and 1 per cent on ail power carried through the city, but not to be sold hers. Tne franchise Is considered by the city officials aa one of the best ever granted to any company, from the atandpolnt of the public It had the hearty support of Mayor Simon and the Coundlmea. and there was no comment at all. It passing without any discussion. The Council sustained the Mayor's eeto of the ordinance relative to movlnr-P'e-tura shows, and arrangements will be mads whereby these establishments will be permitted to run by changing their lamproora or by providing side exits. Eighteen m oaths will ba granted them In which to comply fully with the bond ing code. A resolution asking Postmaster Mer ries: to close the Postofflce Sundays was passed by unanimous rote. The resolu tion was Introduced by Councilman Cel lars, and read that. In the opinion of the Council, there Is no neceeslty for the keeping open of the office Sundays. Building Amendment Considered. An ordinanoa Introduced at the request of the Board of Education of School Dis trict No. 1. seeking authority to con struct certain frame buildings within the city, was first Toted down, and later waa reconsidered and ordered referred to committee for further study. The board members wish to make some re pairs and additions to frame school houses, while the building cods prohibits this form. A 'license wss granted to A. Duchamp to conduct private dancing at Council Crest, and an amendment to the ordi nance regulating parks was passed to conform with the action. Upon motion of Councilman Watklna, 1250 was appropriated by ordinance, to be used In constructing a lethal chamber at the city pound, for killing dogs In a humsns manner. This Is a move that haa been strongly advocated by the Hu mane Society, and was favored by Mayor Bimon and all of the members of the Council. The ordinance received an unanimous vots. An ordinance appropriating OC for repayment of vehicle taxes collected from Dan Kellaher and others, was de feated, largely because of the attitude of Mayor Simon, who said: "It Is giving to Dan Kellaher a lot of money to which be Is not entitled." It was discussed for a time, but wss voted down end later, upon being reconsidered, wss ordered re referred to committee. Mr. Kellaher has been lighting all of the vehicle tax ordi nances the Council has passed within the past two year, and thus far haa de feated all of them. Downtown Skating Prohibited.

The Council upheld the contention of Mayor Simon and Councilmen Rushlight and Kubli and ordered a re advertise ment for wood blocks. It Is understood that an excellent bid, considerably lower than tha former one, will be submitted. The wood block manufacturers bad con siderable trouble over Kearney street, recently, and this Is unsettled still.

The result of the skirmish was that the blocks un doubtedly will be laid. A new bid will be sought, upon Instructions from the Council, ss a former bid. submitted by a stone block firm, was too high. There were sharp words between Coun cilmen Annand and Rushlight, Annsnd taking the ground that granitoid should be laid on this street, and Rushlight con tending that wood blocks should be be cause of tha large petition for them from property owners who must pay lor tha work, Mr. Annand. flanked by a representa tive from tha granitoid company, de clared that the Council ought to pro ceed without delay to order another kind of pavement than wood blocks, owing to the recommendation made by the street committee of the Executive Board, made a week ago. This was that, be cause of the high bid for blocks. It wouid be wise to ask the Council to order a different pavement. In the meantime, however, the wood block manufacturers had found that the bid submitted by a contractor was too high, and decided to PORT ANGELES TO BOOST Olympic Peninsula Town of 2300 Has $11,000 Publicity Fund.
