IMPROVING STREETS. i It 1. to be regretted that the finance. f Astoria are In .uch a condition that necessary street Improvements will : be retarded and. many needed inv provement not tnsde at all. An ef fort ha. een made to Impress upon the common council the necessity of economising In the expenditure. In very department In order that suf- ; ficlent fund, would be available for the improvement of streets. , An i excellent Idea was advanced by TM-W iitArnAT Smith, that In making- Street Improvements the estimate be made and the assessment, levied and collected before the contract Is award: ed. When It i. considered that 0ere are fc number of people that take ad vantage of every technicality In street or sewer improvement, who want the Improvement made and when it 1. made try and avoid paymett, or al low their assessments to run four or five year, and then come In and ask the council to permit them to pay the -original assessment without penalty ;ad interest, it i. becoming apparent that a different mode of making street Improvement, will have to be Inaurf ..r.ti nd that the assessment, will nave to be made and collected before the improvement Is undertaken. This method will place those who pay their assessments promptly and those who try and avoid paying, on the same level and no Injustice will be done either party. Astoria' is enjoying an unprecedent ed growth. Hundreds of new houses are being erected to supply the de mand and more will be a. soon as some of the streets are opened anJ " Improved. Grand avenue, between Eleventh and Eighth streets connect ing with the street going over the Bill Is a necessary improvement, as no less than 40 teams a day pass over this thoroughfare. Irving avenue im provement will open out a large amount of choice residence property, and iir a proper drain can be construct- ed at the same time 'may avoid thf ' sliding ground between Twentieth and Twenty-third streets. Franklin ave nue, between Third and Fourth needs improving and the property will poy for the Improvement.' They asked for this improvement over a year ago, but It has evidently been overlooked. Ex change street, between Seventeenth and the Clatsop mill must be Improved very oon, as It is only a matter of a very short time when it will fall down, carrying all the water main, with It, cutting off.the.eupply from the east end, and in the event of a fire thou sands of dollar, of property would be destroyed. There is about $30,000 outstanding street assessments that are due the city. Some of them are for install ments ,ibe first having been paid and no other payment, made. The com mon council doe. not enforce the char ter provision, providing for a penalty on all delinquents. If they had done o and Immediately sold the property whm the assessment became delln iunt the city would have been in a better condition financially than It is today. It will be noticed that the sheriff sells the property of all delinquent, who fall to pay their taxes, and there 1. never any rebate either on penalty and Inter est. If the law had not been strictly followed in the collection of taxes, there would he thousands of dollars on the asflommf-nt books due the coun ty. If merchants never presented any bills on tha first of the month and only collected what morey people brought to the store, It would be but a matter of a short time before they would be bankrupt.. Thin is the condi tion of affairs that exist In Astoria to day and it has teen brought about by thf lax methods cf conducting the business of the city. There is no rea son why the city should not Jiave the money due it than there is that the merchants should have money due them. , . o KAN' PATTERSON CASE.
