This property will be deeded- to the Portland Library association If that or- f anlaatlon will erect a suitable building hereon. The Portland Library associa tion, not having the funds at present, has aaked the residents of the east aide to aid In erecting the building. - A committee from tha east side, con sisting of 0,'M.

No conclusion was reached as to the kind of building needed for a library on the eaat aide. It waa decided that a mass meeting REVOKE LICENSE IF JURIES ARE EASY iBpeelsl Dispstc to The oemal.)

Arrests are made every Sunday, and the attorney's ' bfflce has lta hands full of cases for weeks to come. Securing conviction, notwithstanding, has been no easy mat ter, the juries bringing In verdicts of not guilty If the smallest loopholes of fer extenuation or a defense for the saloonman. The prosecutor has now taken a different tack, and has gone before the city council, asking that all offending ' saloons have their licenses revoked. SMUGGLERS BOGIE IS .

The east might well have compiamea of the trovernment of San Francisco and withheld its credit prior to the fire of April not, because no serious attempt had been made to expoae and punish the criminals who held public places, and a charge against the citixens might lie that they aupinely bore the yoke without protest and auffered their city to be despoiled by organised graftera. "But when these graftera, like car rion, preyed upon the fallen city, and sold its valuable privileges at a time when the municipality needed every penny of lta .revenues, the men of San Franclsoo roas to the occasion, and now one of the most remarkable pros ecutions In the history of criminal pro ceedings la going on under the shadow of our great disaster, which aeems to have served.

Ths.-east-elde committee, how ever, looking into the future of the east aide, believes that a permanent stone structure .whioh will be an ornament to that-part- of the city should be con structed, and declares its willingness to go out among, the people and solicit the necessary funds, which It is believed can i be raised , after a systematic, can vass.

Eighty-three sofas were billed to the atate at 118.40 per foot or $566.02 each. WATCHING EFFECTS OF DEMURRAGE LAW (Special Dispatch to The JoaraaL) Tacoma, Wash., June IS. The opera tion of the new state demurrage law is being closely watched by manufactur ers and railroad men. Lumbermen are awaiting the; Outcome of the first month's operations. They say, however, that however strictly ft may be en forced it will not prevent the railroads' discriminating by giving eqme mills many cars and slighting others. The solution, they say, would be a grad uated scale of car supply based on the total lumber output of the different mills.
