FILE LIGHT PROPOSAL
City Council Satisfied With Iresent
ArTaiigyiiKnt England's Itexig- .
nation Accepted.
Routine matters occupied the at
tention of the city council last Thurs
day evening. A most important doc
ument, full text of which is published
(in niiumer I'uiumn, was iiie report oi
Recorder Hurt relative to the check
ing up of water usage throughout the
city. The report showed an addition
of over $1,600 in receipts over those
of last year. Report of the city park
commission, covering a period of six
weeks, was read and accepted. The
report showed an immense 'amount
of work accomplished during the
period covered. On account of the
recent resignation of Mrs. Meikle as
a member of the park board, the
mayor named Louis Werth to fill the
vacancy. Councilman Cunningham,
(however, asked that the appointment
be held in abeyance for the present,
for reasons that he did not at that
time wish to divulge, and the request
was granted.
The resignation of Councilman
England was accepted. Mr. England
stated that he would not, after July
1, be a freeholder in Ashland and
j consequently would be ineligible for
the position, having recently traded
this holdings here for outside prop
! erty, which would require much of
j his attention during the summer.
Co-operation of the city council in
the coining Fourth of July celebration
i was evidenced by the allowance of
the committee's petition for full con
trol of fhe streets and concessions
during the celebration. The petition
also Included the installation of addi
tional lights in the park, the same to
remain in use throughout Chautau-
iqua, and the declaring of July 3, 4
and 5 as legal holidays for the city.
The California-Oregon Power Com
pany was lightly treated in the mat
ter of their proposition to furnish
power for street lighting purposes at
the rate of cent per candle power
per month. The proposition was or
dered filed by the mayor, without a
protest on the part of councilmen.
The city general fund is now paying
the city lighting department at the
rate of 1 cents per candle power
per month, which is on the same ba
sis as formerly charged by the Siski
you company.
Applications for the renting of the
rock crusher and roller were read
I and brought out some discussion. It
was stated that the crusher is at pres-
ent almost submerged With dirt and
mai u wouia be netter otr in use.
The matter was referred to the Btreet
committee with power to act. The
petition of J. B. Hunter for surplus
water was placed on file, the mayor
expressing the opinion that the coun
idl had nothing to do with the nmt-
ter.
: The committee of the whole report
j ed favorably on the matter of ex
pending $500 for the raising of the
j dam at the upper intake. This im
Iprovenient will be of much value to
the water-and light departments, as
i the improvement contemplates a
j raise of two or three feet. The elee
! trie light committee reported in the
! matter of the proposition of Martin
j brothers to sell to the city 40 cres
of land where the power house
stands, dismissing the proposition
! summarily with the assertion that
the city already had good title to the
land.
Ira Shoudy, O. J. Stone and E. J.
Arant were named as viewers in sew
er district No. 17. The matter .of
sewer connections on Granite street
was referred to the sewer committee.
it being stated that a number of
property owners have not complied
(with the conditions of the ordinance
J compelling connection.
I E. J. Arant appeared before the
council with a verbal protest against
the building of a barn in his neigh
borhood contrary to the ordinance.
It was brought out that a permit was
granted for this barn about seven
years ago, before the present ordi
nance governing barns was enacted.
The question as to whether the old
permit is good was a matter of some
discussion. In the absence of a writ
ten protest the matter was not acted
Upon.
HYDROPLANE TRIP MADE.
Clnistofforsoii, Portland ISiidnmn,
I MsiL'.iu Wii.....r.f.il T..I..I
Vancouver Barracks. Wash. The
first hydroplane flight in this section
of the northwest was made here last
Wednesday by Silas Christofferson,
who achieved fame recently by flying
from the top of a hotel in Portland
to the artillery drill grounds here In
12 minutes. The flight, was a com
plete success, and Christofferson
proved that he could handle his craft
as easily as though the pontoon was
not attached.
i The aeroplane, the same one used
in making the . flight from Hotel
Multnomah, was landed on the shore
of a body of water east of the mili
tary reservation, where it was laid
on the pontoon, 16 feet long and 26
inches square. On the end of each
lower plane was fastened a floater to
keep the tips out of water in case
the machine dipped, i
The engine was started and In less
than 250 feet the hydroplane rose
evenly into the air. Christofferson
made a circuit and came to the water
easily and smoothly. It is much
easier to alight on the surface of
water than on land with a machine.
It la probable that Christofferson will
make flights in Portland during the
Elks convention.
Will Raise lli-oom Corn.
After experimenting for several
years. J. G. Miller has become con
vinced that broom corn will do well
In this locality, and hus 20 acres
growing this year. He reports that.
It Is making a very satisfactory
growth and is confident of a good
crop. Mr. Miller is a practical
broom-maker and experts to estab
lish the Industry here and work up
his crop. -
If it is Tidings work it is the test.

HAWLEY IS LAUDED.
Memorial Day Address Strikes Re
hlM.nsive Chord in Vrginians.
"Colonel" Hawley, as the press of
the blue-blooded state of Virginia
calls Congressman W. C. Hawley of
this district, delivered the memorial
address on May 30 at the national
home for volunteer soldiers in Vir
ginia. Mr. Hawley has always been
a warm champion of the volunteer
soldiers of the Mexican, Civil, Spanish-American
and Indian wars,, and
his long experence as a student and
teacher of history makes him special
ly fitted to comment upon the inesti
mable services rendered by the vol
unteer soldiers of the United States
In times of great national danger,
such as existed in the above wars.
It appears that he struck the right
chords when he addressed the vet
erans in Virginia, more than a thou
sand of whom heard him, and the
Virginia press, commenting on his
oration, styles it one of the grandest
orations ever delivered in that state.
