Council Held
Dull Session
Cleaning up the
Watershed
Matters in regard to Ashland Can
yon and Ashland's water supply are
always of interest to Ashland readers
jind always should be. Several came
np fof discussion at Tuesday nigfct's
council meeting. The disposition
made o( these is recounted below.
T!l? City im aKreed to haul wire
to Long's Cabin Tof MmST". TtCeSon
and Klelnhammer, who desire to
fence their range in the forest re
serve to prevent their herds on the
Little Applegate from straying over
the divide into the Ashland water
shed, where twenty-one had died last
year from eating larkspur, me cat
tlemen wanted the city to deliver tho
wire to the fence line, but this means
a hard and expensive pock up the
hills.
The water committee has Investi
gated the proposal of W. A. Conner
to sell seventy acres just above the
lower Intake for $1650 and declares
the price too high lis compare I to
that paid for other tracts. The com
mittee asks for further time to in
vestigate the offer of Martin brothers
J Bell 339 acre's above the power
bou6e on which tney estimate mere
5s 2,800.000 feet of saw timber.
Superintendent Butterfleld of the
electric light system reports that the
conservation reservoirs above the
power house on the east and west
forks of Ashland creek have been
thoroughly cleaned out and that the
rapacity of the latter has been dou
bled by the jnoval of rocks and
fallen timber etc.
The work of Installing e!p?it or en
drinking fountains along Main street
and the Boulevard will be begun In
the course of a week or ten clay by
the city water department, which Is
now busy with the laying of 4(00
feet of water pipe on the west side
of town. The pipe Is the ten-Inch
that waa taken up when tbe larger
pipes were laid over Crowson hill.
The fountains will probably be of ce
ment with porcelain tops and will be
of sufficient size and artistic design
to present a dignified appearance.
. While the water department is at this
work the school board will also have
two erected at the high school.
Several Changes
In Business
First flmomcorn Kblpiuhli

broom com ever sent out Of the

City council met Tuesday night
with all members present. No busi
ness of importance was done.
The petition of various citizens
on Oak street for a bridge, the ap
proximate cost of which will be $150,
was granted and the street committee
Instructed to proceed with the work.
The employment of a city dog
catcher with police powers was au-
tbo"ized ttnd provision made to
amenft tne charter so that licensed
dogs may W restrained from running
at large except .when accompanying
their masters. EveS" Eroceryman in
the city except one baa eh'lor8ed the
move to restrain the dogs.
The ordinance against rendering
lard and smoking hams Inside the city
limits will be modified so that this
branch of industry may be carried on
under proper restrictions consisting
of cement rendering and smoking es
tablishments with adequate vents for
smoke and odors. A provision will
also be added to prevent the offering
for sale ot slaughtered fowls that
have not been drawn etc.
The special committee on hitch-
racks reports that the racks have
been moved from the site of the new
theatre and have been relocated be
hind the stores of R. A. Mlnkler and
the Ashland Trading Company. The
same committee has been charged
with the duty of looking up a newt
site for the public market.
Considerable ginger was injected
Into Tuesday night's council meeting
following the presentation of a peti
tion signed by 2 2 citizens In support
of the Chautauqua Park CIuo'b re
auest for city aid in the care of their
park. Councilman ABhcraft moved
to turn the matter over for a thor
ough working out by the finance com
mittee of the council In conjunction
with the Park Board and the Chau
tauo.ua Park Club. The motion carried.
A remonstrance signed by practi'
cally every business man on The
Plaza was considered by tne city
council Tuesday night. They ask the
repeal of that section of the traffic
ordinance which specifies that autos
shall not be left standing tor longer
than ten minutes on the street be
tween Water and Mill streets. They
specify that their business is Injured
thereby. It Is admitted, however,
by many of them in private conversa
tion that a lady customer driving an
auto or a horse In an effort to ap
proach their stores should not have
to dodge or climb over several autos
that somebody has left there early In
tho day and forgotten to take away.
It is quite a problem.
Three changes in business firms
took place today, indicating renewed
confidence in Ashland's future. J.
E. Weaver has taken as a partner in
the Plaza grocery J. H. Hearsey. E.
W. Lyman has sold his billiard parlor
and cigar store to N. Natstead and
11. A. Gray. Mr. Fuller has disposed
of his interest in the Falter & Paulse
rud tailoring shop to Carl Hilty.
In addition to these changes in
business several deals have been
closed in the last few (toys for resi
dence property, but they nave not
been made public.
The people of Florence have sub
scribed $1,0 00 for prizes for the
rhododendron carnival to be held
May 21 and 22. It is proposed also
to build a road to the beach, a dis
tance oT five miles, the road to be
planked and made suitable for use
the year round.
