At a special meetlnc of the council last nlg-tat p. com munication was recelered from H. Lk Powers statins; .that the company had expended in Ha plant $14.00. but that -- it would sell at a . reasonable flvure should the city desire to purchase the plant. The oouncll received the report . . favorably, but delayed action until the . .- next regular meeting, July 7, when it Is expected that a large number of clu- sens will be present and the matter can - be thoroughly discussed. ' The management of the system last - week announced that it 'was not its de '"sire to dispose of Its property and de nii that any. offer, had been.. made by uny one ' ootclally connected with the " ' corporation, it being stated that the plant had been conducted at e-loas to ... provide ilre protection to the - water front factories. In, which the owners of the system were vitally Interested. Whatever the reason for the sudden " , change of front Is it Is now evident . that the company is willing to dtepoee , ef the plant, probably at a figure lees than the amount reported to have been expended. i Though the question of taking over the system haa only recently been dis cussed in- Johns, general sentiment seems to favor It, and before the end of the year another "bond election may ' result In. the acquisition of the water . works, and the enlarging of the busi ness mains to supply adequate Are pres sure. .

SCRUTINIZE' BOND ISSUE. trjo&aa Oertiaeates pro Te Aeeepted -t Tim That Bids forThesa. "Though the' St' Johns bond Issiieof lle.SOS has been purchased, it has not been delivered or accepted by the Port land capitalists who secured it. The bonds are ready for the purchasers, and the St. Johns council is- ready for the t rt.OOO, but - the money' is not yet In evidence. ... .. ... t . ' By an examination of the records and after reading accounts of the bond elec tion the purchasers discovered that there was a slight cloud-on the Issue, and until-this is cleared sway no money will change hands. It Is the old Question- ttf whether the city council acted legally in placing the bonds before the voters as an aggregate. Instead of speci fying on the ballot what purposes the bonds were to be issued for. After an examination Of , the charter the : city attorney. Mayor . King. Auditor Hanks and the oouncilmen concluded that there was nothing in that document that made it necessary to vote on the bonds sepa rately, so loag as the purpose of vari ous bonds bad been stated in the election notices. . ...... f It Is admitted that the charter Is vagus and hard to Interpret in this re spect, arid . this doabtlsss -caused the confusion in the - minds of - many - St. Johns clllsens at the time of the elec tion and led to. the belief, that tho bonds as voted wars illegal. , It Is not ex pected that anything more than a vexa tious delay will com from the present Investigation, ths council receiving good legal authority concerning the validity of tha-bonds before offering them for sale. Contrary to report, . there . were three bidders for the HL Johns bonds Instead ef one. The Chicago firms of Kean eV Co. and C, M. Elllnwood offered bids, one offering a premium of 4106 and the other of 1411. - ravlar Tire street. ' Work on Jersey street, the, main busi ness thoroughfare-of, Bt.

The present grads-is several 'feet below, the old lavel, and the car tracks and som of the business - houses - will have - to be lowered. As first planned, the street waa a foot lower than the j. present grade, but when excavation we begun It was found that this would entail too much expense and the grade waa raised allghtly. ..This is" the first -street Im provement work that has been done In the town, ss heretofore the only .

This summer the council will let contracts for the f radlsg and graveling of half a doaen of the main' streets of the town, and the first sidewalks in ths residence district will be laid. In many places the platted afreets run through. dock yaroa, and the thoroughfares in use are vacant lota In reality, so rap idly has the town outcrown its orlsinal bounds.
