The reason the work was not Jone in
Astoria is bct-auK there are no marine
ways, making It impossible to repali

would provide such necessary adjuncts
and keep the money at home, but in
Astoria It Is different.

duced. as the committee deem it un
necessary to impose any more burd
ens upon the mfcrehants.
Tha A Ht or lan has never criticised
Superintendent Kearney, nor' connect
ed him In any way with the employ
ment of additional men to superintend
the construction of streets, for he has
never employed any, it having been
done by the council. n It simply pub.
llshed what Councilman Belland called
the attention of the council to, and a
statement made by Chairman Hansen,
that men had been employed, but the
city had no legal right to do so.' If
Cotincllmen Belland and Hansen wer
mistaken, then The Astorlan must hav
been. The payrolls speak for them
selves.
