The proposal that the city appro- jirUt M0 for tha purpose of rock crushers is looked upon favoraWr and I a resolution was adopted Indorsing tha Kuhlibt ordinance making an appro ! ; filiation of that amount ' - Tha ordinance has only reached tha ..Ways and means committee of which " Councilman Rushlight Is chairman.

City Attorney Kavanaugh has tx - ytreaaed some doubt as to tha ability of -, the city to operate a rock eruaher un '. der the present charter, but other legal opinion has been secured-to the effect that the city does have the right and ' can own and operate a publlo utility of ; the character of a rock crusher. Wheth ' er the surplus rock can be sold is an other matter, but It Is thought that this 'can be accomplished without violating ' tha provisions of tbe charter. 1 -.';.. City.

Not until Grand avenue and ; East Morrlscn streets are Improved can . j the e&at side hope to obtain many of the features of the Rosa Festival or any part of the parade. " Also since the contract for tbe con : struction of a modern steel bridge " across Sullivan's gulch on Union ave i nue is bow about to be let unless Grand 1 avenue ia Improved from East Oak to ' Holladay avenue, there will be no means ; of communication between the sections f north and south of Sullivan's gulch.

It was generally conceded that the de cision would be affirmed by the su preme court of the state and that steps should be taken to start new petitions embracing the same provisions or many or them.

He said the Ad club took great interest in the east side now that It waa slkpwtng a positive tendency to advertise and help Itself.

Steer Clear of Politics. It has ben the object of all the clrlo Improvement bodies on the east side to steer clear of embarrassing complica tions and especially political alliances of any nature whatever. Several time; the conservative heads In the United Kast 81de clubs have been called upon to prevent the Indorsement of candl Aata hv enthusiastic friends.
