DAILY JOURNALV PORTLAND, THURSDAY EVENING, JANUARY 80, 1003. 11 1111 . 1 1 the: NEW THE NEW LITTLE RENTS MAKE SMALL PROFITS FOR BRIDGE UDU nrriTinnin miiKi SOUP East Side Stlburbs Begging !vf for Extension of Bull Bun : Mains-rBoard Action, De layed by Supremo Court Decision. 1 V Every Mat aide suburb la clamoring for Bull Run. The water board la over whelmed .with petltlona asking far the extension of" water malna Into nearly yery outlying district, from Ken 11 worth on the aoutheaat to the penln Jul on the- northeast. The water board 'lean do nothing until the case now pend jflng In the supreme court, affecting the 1 extension of water mains Is decided. "Under the provision that paaaed laat junv aays ur. u. h. Karrety or ma water board." the I extension of water mains would have been accomplished in tne same way aa street improve ments axe made and sewers are built. The property tributary to the proposed route of a big main would be assessed for the main and the abutting property would be assessed for laying laterals. "At present new mains must be laid with the funds that come In from the rate charges Instead of an assessment upon those benefited by the new ex ten Ion. As a result there are a great many extensions that cannot be made. "Were the amendiaenta to the charter In force now we should have been able to make a great many needed exten sions. It would have taken 600.000 to make au the extensions that were pe tltlnna1 for last Tear w-heir tha avail able funds for that purpose were only aoout xaau.ouo. Another item mat would have been favorable to the con sumers at largo is the fact that a great reduction in water rates would havo been made possible. "It Is quite likely that the en pre me court will affirm the decision of Judeo Cleland but until it does wa are unable to act one way or another. If It la affirmed, and I believe It will be, we will at once get busy with those pe titions and grant extensions as far an wa can and where we think they are Deeded moat. "We are quite busy with other mat ters, among others the controversy over our rights on Bull Run river. It has been necessary for us to engage a a special attorney to defend the city In tms case as the city attorney nas nia hands full with the other matters per taining to the city's affairs." Dr.'Raffety was required to go Into n extended discussion on the effects of electrolysis at the meeting of the United East Side club fend tell of the methods that have been adopted to f re vent it from destroying water mains, le Bald the street railway company had expressed a willingness to do its part In controverting the effects of elec trolysis without any cost charged up to the city. ERECT BUILDING FOR HEW THEATRE rians Under Consideration for Construction of Two . Story Concrete Edifice. The theatre project which W. It. Morgan. and a few other capitalists in terested In tha welfare of the east aide have been talking of tha past few weeks la still very much in the air. The Holman mock, at tne nortneaat comer of East Washington and Grand avenue. has been Inspected and found to be im practicable. The plan Is to build a two-story re enforced ' concrete building somewhere In tha vicinity of East Stark street and Grand avenue. Mr. Morgan and others believe that such a venture could be made to pay at the very least 6 per cent on the Investment, If not a great deal more at the start If such a plan should be adopted Mr. Morgan has sig nified bis intention of suscribing to $10,000 worth of the stock.

''Many people believe that the Madi son bridge Is dangerous," said Whitney L. Boise, "and while I do not think it is in danger of falling down within a year or two, it is a fact that it is rapid ly going to pieces.
