Council Refuses to
Put Change to Vote
The proposed change of jurisdic
tion over the parks, which in the
form of a charter amendment was
drawn up by Attorney Moore and
revised by the trustees of the Com
mercial Club and turned over to the
city council, was allowed to die a
natural death as far as the council
is concerned at Tuesday's meeting.
The amendment will probably be
brought before the people for their
vote by Initiative petition since a
change of some kind Is conceded nec
essary and the board of trustees of
the Commercial Club offer the
amendment as their solution. The
trustees of the Commercial Club are
J. W. McCoy, G. H. Billings, W. E.
Kewcombe, Henry Enders, H. O.
Frohbach, C. W. Banta, C. B. Wolf,
C. B. Lamkin, F. H. Walker, M. C.
Reed, V. 0. N. Smith, Frank Jordan,
Hal McNair and Fred Wagner.
The council discussed the proposi
tion for a half hour without the
formality of taking It from the table
and finally let It stay on the table.
Mr. Banta opened the discussion
with the statement that there were
three factions In the city, one of
which favored turning over the wa
ter system to the park board, the
turning over the water system to the
council, and one turning both pipe
lines and park to the council. Mayor
Johnson suggested that the last
might seem the most efficient be
cause of centralization of power In
the one head, but It was pretty hard
now to find men who would under
take the work which befell the lot
of the councilmen who do not have
to worry about the water system or
the parks at present. Mr. Banta
stated his belief that the city coun
cil could handle the pipe line more
economically than any other depart
ment, also that he believed the back
ers of the petition should Initiate it.
Frank Jordan suggested that by
the council's placing It before the
people, the cost of Initiating it
would be Baved and an economy ef
fected. He stated: "Fourteen men
have agreed upon this amendment.
If the council wishes to take over
the water system they should also
take the park, because the two must
be handled together to make a suc
cessful resort out of Ashland. The
whole thing should be placed in the
hands of a commission of able citi
zens who can devote their efforts
solely to making a resort of Ash
land." Clauses of the amendment which
did not suit some of the councilmen
were discussed, but none moved to
take the petition from the table.
Apparently Do
Not Fear Fire
The matter of allowing the city
fire-fighting apparatus to leave the
city in case of fires near the city
limits has been a question to the city
officials. Some time ago a commit
tee was appointed from the council
and property owners of the vicinity
of Ashland invited to get together
with the council to discuss the mat
ter and make arrangements for firel
protection. According to a report
made Tuesday night by Chairman
Banta of the committee, none of the
residents outside the city have tak
en up the matter, and unless they do
In the near future, the matter will
be dropped and the chemical engine
and other apparatus which would be
of great assistance In some kinds of
fire will be ordered to remain In the
city. 3 r. !
Perhaps there are special reasons
why New York has an epidemic of
Infantile paralysis. Complaints are
made in the New York papers that a
dead horse lying in the street, al
though reported to the board of
health, was left to decay In a crowd
ed neighborhood as undisturbedly as
if it were on the prairies, and that
in one city block three dead cats,
also reported to the board of health,
are still lying waiting to be buried.
Thus Infantile paralysis can show
cause.

Council Attends
To City Business
The city council met in regular
session Tuesday evening and after
the minutes and routine reports had
been read, heard City Engineer
Walker's report on the proposed
damslte which is regarded as a fu
ture possibility.
The matter of arrangements for
the Commercial Club rooms in the
city hall was cared for as elsewhere
reported.
W. H. Hodklnson, the Jeweler who
has recently re-opened the Smith
jewelry store in the Elks building,
petitioned that he be given permis
sion to place an electrically lighted
watch sign on the front of his store.
The permission was granted. ' ' ''
Earl Rasor's damage claim and
Mrs. Delsman's offer for the B street
lots of the city are elsewhere re
ported. The proposition of the widening
of Park avenue was discussed.
The water commissioner was In
structed to investigate a needed
sewer extension in the neighborhood
of the Holmes store on the Boule
vard and procure the material and
Install the sewer. '
Some tar paint which was put on
the pipe between the intake and the
power house, failed to stick in places
where exposed to the sun and by
authority granted by the council the
superintendent will construct a roof
or shoulder out of one by tens over
the pipe in the exposd placs.
' At this point Mr. Ashcraft moved
that when the council adjourned, it
be to meet Friday evening at 7:30
to close up the sale of the two pieces
of city property which are being
sold, one to Mrs. Delsman and one
to W. B. Holmes.
After a half hour's discussion of
the petition asking the placing of
the proposed charter amendment be
fore the people at an election, the
Council adjourned.
Swingle Cow Will
Have to Evacuate
During 'the past two years, with
surprising regularity, complaints
have come in at almost every council
meeting from residents in the vicin
ity of the barn owned by Mr. Swin
gle, complaining against It as a nuis
ance. The council has had several
committees wrestling with the prob
lem and trying to solve the solution
of disposal of the objectionable fea
tures of the barn. No means were
found, and as a last resort the board
of health, consisting of Dr. Gregg,
Dr. Swedenburg and Councilman
Nlnlnger, Inspected the property and
decided that the livestock would
have to be removed and kept out of
the barn, which was deemed a nuis
ance. Notice was served upon Mr.
Swingle to move his cow to sorrfe
place where she will be more appre
ciated and the barn will probably ac
cede to the march of progress by
becoming a garage.

A POETS GUIDE.
(By Mary O. Carey, Talent, Ore.)
Ever as I wander down life's path
There seems an unseen hand
Beckoning, beckoning unto me
To enter a mystic land.
A land so near and yet so far,
That a gulf seems just between,
And yet I hear and can not see
Yet this guide is there I ween.
And my heart seems ever longing
To enter the mystic land
To drink at the fount of knowledge,
And grasp that beckoning hand.
And so I sit me down and write
The words that came to me.
Each poem is the revealing
Of the mystic things I see.
