transacted was passing resolutions

dinance. A large number of prop
erty owners from Upper Astoria
were present to remonstrate against
the establishment of the grade on
50th, 51st and 52nd streets in Aldcr
brook, but as the petition circulated
by Mr. Van Dusen was insufficient,
there was nothing for the council to
take action on.
A petition from John A. Nelson
and others asking for the establish
ment of grades on Commercial street
was filed.
A petition from Gus Anderson

granted and work commenced on
the improvement.

erty owners against the establishing
the grade of 50th to 54th street was

Adair drain was read. He recom
mended two drainage districts "where
the trouble cxist.s The seepage runs
southeast and northwest and that
38th street is not as bad aa some
other streets in the district. One
cause of sliding ground is the ot
struction of natural drainage by im
provemenjs, also by tapping small
streams for private use. allowing the
surplus to run over the ground. He
recommended the establishment of
system of drains commencing at the
river front and extending to the seat
of the trouble. There are many
springs on the property caused from
swamps 300 to 400 feet below Irving
avenue and the1 slides will not be
stopped until the swamps are drain
ed. The report is quite lengthy and
covers the question thoroughly. It
will be published in full in tomor
row's Astorian.
Report of the committee on streets
and public ways on the . sewer on
Commercial street; establishing the
grades of several streets in. Alder
brook, and recommending awarding
of contracts to lowest- bidders on

filed.
The committee on fire and water
reported favorably on permitting
the Union Oil Co. to erect tanks on
their procprty, corner of Second and
Astor streets, providing a,gatc valve
is put in, water pipes extended
around the entire plant, putting in
of a hydrant for fire purposes, build
ing a concrete wall around the prop
crty with an iron - fenVe five feet
high, oencrete walks all around the
property and said warehouses and

land ordinances.
An ordinance was introduced by

14th to 17th for viewers to meet on
June 5th and equalize the same were
passed. '
Councilman Curtis called the at
tention of the Council to a petition
presented by Mrs. Grant and Mayor
Smith suggested that his attention
had been called to the existence of
three or four streets dedicated by J.
M. Shivley, running east and west,
north of Commercial street, now
claimed by D, II. Welch and others
and the matter was referred to the
city attorney for an opinion. -
Mayor Smith called attention to
the damage being done by the oil on
the Columbia river and suRKestina
that the matter be taken up with the
United States engineers, was on mo
tion referred to a committee con
sisting of Leinenweber, Fox and
Wilson.
Councilman Karinen called atten
tion to the fact of the existence! of
two or three blind pigs, one on 6th
street between Bond and Astor and
one near a bath house on Astor
streets. Chief Oberg stated his at
tention had been called to the exist
ence of the blind pigs and the police
force proposed to put a stop to all of
them. It was said it was not fair to
saloonkeepers who pay a license and
close their places on Sunday to allow
bund pigs to run on Sunday and one
of them was the cause of consider
able drunkenness.
There being no further business
the council adjourned.
