By a vote of 152 to 40, the elect ors of North Bend Saturday adopted a new charter for that municipality. Tho new charter will becomo effect ive as soon as the North Bend city council canvasses and certifies tho results of tho election. Tho council will meet Tuesday evening to do this. The election Saturday passed off very quietly. The bulk of the vote was cast In the afternoon, only about GO being cast up to 1 o'clock. Thero was no united opposition to the new charter which is modeled closely after tho Portland charter, only such changes being made In the Rose City document as were es sential to mako It suitable to tho smaller town. Captain A. M. Simp son, who at first came out against the new charter withdrew most of his objections towards tho last, his principal opposition being based on a point that had been settled some time ago that is tho annexation of the old town. The principal feature of the now charter Is tho Increasing of the maxi mum Indebtedness that tho city may Incur. Under it, tho city may issue bonds up to twenty per cent of the assessed valuation and Issuo war rants to the amount of $20,000. Plan Water System. Special provision is made to en able the city to install its own water works system and it was stated to day that this will bo taken up at onco. It was stated that just as soon as the new charter becomes ef fective, some of the business men and members of tho North Bend city council propose to arrange for the flotation of a bond issue to meet the expense of putting in the now water works system. There has boon con siderable agitation In the past In North Bend for a waterworks sys tem of Its own, but It has not ma terialized in any action because of tho inability to raise the funds. Tho change In the charter removes this barrier, it is said. Tho advocates of the new waterworks system are un decided yet whether to go ahead with a municipal system or to awnrd a franchise to another corporation. The Marshfield Water Company now has pipes In North Bond but some appear to bo dissatisfied with tho service given. Personal Notes 1 H. R. FRISBIE and wife, left on tho Roseburg stage Sunday morning.
