A myriad of patty municipal troubles
are - confronting SL Johns, and ths

exnerlanctnsr the- tribulations that a
growing city seems to acquire by right
of Inheritance. The council refused to
act on a somewhat important caae laat
night, which haa stirred the town con
siderably the laat few weeks. - This was
in mimet ta the action of the eon-
tractors who are building the elty ball,
mnA wkn were riven permission to erect
a small building within the fire limits
for the purpose of storing tools and
small supplies during the construction
of the building. It wes the understand
ing of the council snd other city au
thorities that the building would be
perhapa 10 by 10. and It was expressly

ths lumber company to take advantags
of this permlaslon and construct a
building In rlolatlon of tho provlalone

The council laat night neglected to act
regarding the matter, and the result Is
that Toungadorfer Bon. the contract

to sppear before Judge Thorhdyke with

Architect Goodrich strenuously de
nies that any changes whatever were
made In the plana for the city hall, as

Improvement. association was held last
night, and some elaborate plans for ths
improvement of. the eaat side were dis
cussed. Otto- Kleeman. architect, spoke
of a plan for constructing A double
street on Eaat Morrison from Grand
avenue to the Morrison bridge, which
would provide a viaduct above the
Southern Psclfto and O. R. A N. lines
for streetcar and all general trarrie.
The UDner street would be supported
with ateel posts And would be concrete
laid -crt steel flooring; would oe is leex
above the present street at Union ave
nue, and II feet at Eaat Water. First
Second snd East Third, rising to ths
bridge.
XnthnslastU Ors Project.
Mr. Kleeman waa very enthusiastic
ever the project and said that It would
be onlv a matter of time until the In
creasing traffic ever the railroad tracks
on East Second and least nrst would
demand such an Improvement The coat
would not be great snd would be borne
by property-owners, streetcsr companies
and rallroade. ...
The association also listened to an in
teresting tslk by Mr. , Friedlander on
Portland theatres and . a plan for a
theatre on the east side was discussed.
As to patronage, he eaid that SO -per
cent, of the patronage now came from
the east side, and that he was confi
dent that a good first-class theatre on
the east -side would pay. The cost he
estimated at about 180,000. and ths mat
ter will be taken up at a later meet
ing of ths association.,- . ,.
Question ef Aansxatloa.
Ths question .of ths annexation ef ths
Mount Bcott dlimct" has-been definite
ly passed up for this year, as ths citi
zens of these outlying suourtst wers late
In getting together on the proposition.
It seems thst In order to bring such a
proposition before the people In the June
election sn application must do made
before the council very early. Thla
rear ths msetlng which wss bald to
nrspare an application occurred lust 14
hours later than ths time In which the
petition should hsve bean In the hands
of ths council, so sll action for thla year
haa been deferred. However, the prop-
arty owners will try to havs their. pe
tition In for the election of June, los.
The--sentiment In these districts for
annexation is interesting. Lenta and
probably Woodmere will be Incorporated
aa aoon as poaslbls under a chartsr of
thslr own.- They cannot see that annex
ation by the big city would benefit them
any.' The eentlment Is In .opposition to
the city because they believe assess-
z trrBBD oovgmcmoir.

Below Lents, Including Nashville, Ar
let and thoae towns nearer the elty, the
sentiment Is different. They realise
that it will only be a matter ef a few
years until they will be part of the city
anyhow, and annexation la only a step
that will have to come sooner or later.
They desire, besldea Bull Run, better as
sura nee of law and order, as some oc
currences recently at Arleta have em-
phaalsed the need of. They point to Bt,
Johns as a demonstration of what In
corporation as a separate city will do
and wish to be delivered from the
troubles that have beset that town al
most continually since It began trying
to govern ltaelf. They realise that they
ara dependent on the city of Portland.
