OIL TANK ORDINANCE
VETOED.
MEASURE PASSED BY COMMON
COUNCIL PROVIDING FOR FOUR
FOOT RETAINING WALL IS RE
FUSED SANCTION.
The ordinance passed at the meet
lng of the common council, specifying
the safeguards to be provided for oil
vetoed by Mayor Herman Wise: The
veto message read us' follows:
Astoria, Oregon, March 2$, 1907,
To the Honorable Common Council of
the City of Astoria:
Gentlemen:
I herewith return an ordinance, en
titled "An Ordinance to regulate the
storage or keeping of petroleum, crude
oils or any 'product of petroleum in
any greater quantity than 5,000 gallons
within the city of Astoria" for the
same reasons given In my veto of
Repeal Ordinance No. S381. To that
I can onlv mAA that I showed mv wll
j llngneaa to meet the oil people more
i than half way, when I offered to agree
to a concrete wall of a sufficient height
to contain the contents of the tanks,
provided these walls were far enough
removed from the tanks so the oil
would not run over In case of a fire or
an explosion.
Mr. Flanders, the Portland agent for
! llir VI. VUMIINIMI. IIIIIIRVTI.
.
stated before this council that no wall
m .f an VttU ,n c"" of an
expio'ion, oui a targe numoer oi resi
dent users of oil petitioned this honor
able body for some concession and
thinking that a wall might help some
in case of a fire in the vicinity of the
tanks, I waived my objections, provld'
ed the walls were built a reasonable
distance from the tanks but the Stan
dard Oil Company insists that It must
have Its own way) that they will not
buy another foot of ground, but that
they will build the wall four feet high,
right close up against the tanks which
are 30 feet high, so that the oil must
necessarily flow Into the yards of the
adotnlng property If it flows out at all;
It Is stated that In the event of an ex
plosion the top of the tank and the oil
from within the tanks will always go
up In the air; even so, where will It
land when It comes down? Their oil
undoubtedly has many good qualities,
but I have never before beard that
when an explosion occurs, the oil will
stay In the air.
In the face of the facts herein en-
umerated In addition to the evidence
submitted In my last veto, I regret
that 1 must refuse to accept the rule
or ruin ultimatum of the Standard
Oil Company.
Respectfully,
HERMAN WISE,
Mayor.
INVESTIGATE ASTORIA THEATRE.
Stat Health Board Hear Charges It I
Fire Trsp.
Dr. Alfred Kinney Informs us that at
Tuesday's session of the State Board
of Health the condition of the Astoria
Theatre was ordered inquired Into.
The Board does not give out for pub
lication matters coming up. for Investi
gation, but the Portland Journal ob
tained and printed a garbled version of
the action taken, In which the chatges
against the Astoria theatre was taken
ae having been proven. As a matter
of fact, all the testimony presented was
hearsay Information.
The charges are that the bulld'ng Is
practically without ventilation and
without precautions against fire. It Is
charged that the means of exit are,
very Inadequate, especially In the gal
lery, where the way of egress Is down
a narrpw and tortuous stairs. Upon
motion of Dr. Kinney, It as ordered
that the secretary write to the local
health officer requesting him to make
an investigation of the premises and
report the facts to the State Health
Officer.
The matter has several times been
presented to the common council by
the city physician, but no action has
keen taken.
Whenever you have a cough or cold,
just remember that Foley's Honey and
Tar will cure it Do not risk yourl
health by taking any but the genuine.
It is in a yellow package. T. F. Lau
