Vaughn (pared nobody's feelings In th speech ha made against the dilatory tae tfra.of tb majority In allowing- the issssnre to He unnoticed "while the rortland Railway, Light ft Power com- ; pany take It own Urn In putting on airbrakes." . The ordinance provides that the com- rn ahull have its esra enultmsd with airbrakes by January 1, 1909. and the evmrany asked that the measure be not l-asaed berane It Is Installing airbrakes - as rapidly aa It can. The majority party acquiesced ,to the company s re iueat. . ,Not so Vaughn. Ho announced when the measure was placed upon the table the lie would call It up at every coun cil meeting: until the council had either varaed it or killed It. tie has kept his promts and yesterday again spoke In favor of the measure. Vaughn referred to the recent death of Fansher, who fcas killed by a car and said tbat while lie did-not know positively, he did not ubt that If the car had been equipped with airbrakea the man would be living today. . ; , Tangha Xahes Council. -Vaughn said "he did not believe In risking fish of one and flesh of an other." and that the council should mete ut the same kind of legislation to a erporatlon that It would to an Indlvld tinl. lie said the council requires the tcanut peddler to move on from one llock to snot her but when It comes to a corporation like the Portland Railway, Light A Power company with millions of dollars behind it, the members not I only did nor compel the company to "move on In putting on airbrakes on its cars, Dut allowed a measure arrect ing this corporation to die a long and lingering oeatn on tne table. Councilman Baker r Republican Candidate r H ForAssessor X :, A. G. Rushlight "A. O. Rushlight, 'councilman of Seventh ward, has followed his the Inten tions to become a candidate for the nomination of county assessor on the Republican ticket. Mr. Rushlight has mads a good record for himself In the city council. His platform Is as fol lows: - , during my term of office exercise the functions thereof for the best Interests of the county and the taxpayers there of. I shall favor a strict business ad ministration Irrespective of any per son, corporation- -or - other Interest whether political or otherwise; I shall endeavor to make a Just and equhable assessment of all property within the county. Words to be printed on bal let: ''Honest and Just assessment with out fear or favor.' I reolied to Vaughn and said thst the reason he did not rote to out the measure on final pas sage was becauae the comnany was ex ercislng good faith In placing airbrakea on its cara. Councilman Cottel gave the expert testimony of the rtvbatn and said he had attended the comnetr's Inquest over Fan aher's remains and mind that startling conditions existed, iie said the testi mony of one wltnesa was to ths effect that the car was going at the rate of but four or five miles an hour, lie said that according to this witness Fansher hod oecn struck by tne car and dragged 20 feet Cot t el pointed out that had the car been equipped with airbrakes. It could have been stopped almoat In stantly. JTo Answer to Cotters Speech. The councilman explained that an other witness testified that h had stepped off the distance from the place where Fansher had been struck to the filace where the car was stopped and ound the distance to be 41 feet This was considered to be greatly in excess of a reasonable distance for stopping a car moving so slowly aa the one that killed Ksnsher. Further explanation elicited the Infor mation that the motorman was Inexpert enced and did "not thoroughly under stand the operation of the lever brakes with which the csr was equipped. Dr. CotttIisuid that If the car had been equipped with air brakes the motor- man, although Inexperienced, could have stopped the car in ft few feet and prob ably saved the man a life. There was no reply to Dr. Cotter speech. i When the vote was tsken to remove the ordinance from the table snd place ll upon rinai passage it wss lost nv a Strict party vote: Councilman Concan non, whe misunderstood the vote and tbough t the council had killed the meas ure, cried out: uod pity you fellows. If you ever come up for election again. This act win live to come up and curse you. In on Instant turmoil was precinl tated. Everybody was strlvin to apt on meir reel nut concannnn continued until his voice alone could he heard above the din. Mayor Isne allowed him to rinisn oespite tne ract that he was out or order and then ended the debate. a Baker Squirms sriXJttt. Councilman Baker attempted to re move the sting of Concannon's remark by Insinuating that Concannon had been guilty of neglect of duty. Baker arose and said sarcastically to Concannon: "I at least represent my ward. Mr. Concannon. Now I am compelled to rrform an unpleasant duty in that have been asked to go take up a matter- that It Is your duty to per form. "Citizens living In your ward. Mr. Concannon, have come to me and asked me i to take up the matter of the Im provement of New street which Is in your ward. i They ear they have taken up the matter with you and that vou have done nothing In the matter. Now Will you explain to the eminrll hv 70u hare neglected ydor duty?" Concannon was on his feet In an In- scant ana excitedly said: ICS. I will tell you. I took sctlnn In this matter and simply because there are corporation men down there who aid not want the Improvement they remonstrated it down. If It had been poor men the Improvement would have gone in but because corporations are on the street the improvement was killed." mootalng things Over. A shout went up when Concannon finished ' and Baker was forced to sir. down. Raker accepted tils defeat grace fully and .later went over and shook hands with his vanquisher. " Following the debate on the slrhralre ordinance Councilman Annand an nounced that a fender teat would h held early In April. Mayor Lane asked that the Liverpool . fender he tested at that time and Oskar Huber, represent ing the streetcar : company, stated that Mayor Lane's request for the test of the Liverpool fender had been received ' . If you suffer pain from any cause, Dr. Miles' Anti Pain Pills will relieve it and leave no bad after effects. That's the impor tant thing. Neither do they create a habit. More often the attacks become less frequent, or disappear altogether. Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills have no other effect except to re lieve pain and quiet nerv ous irritation. "We are never without Dr. Miles' Antl-Paln Pills. My husband and on, aged II were always subject to . sick headache until we began using these Pills, snd they have broken them up entirely. Don't think they have had to use them for six month. I recommend them to every one. A few weeks sgo I heard an old lady friend was sick. 1 went to see her. Bhe was down with IOripne. and nearly erasv with awful backache. I gave her one of the Antl-Paln Pills and left another for her to take in a short time. They helped her right away, and she says she will never be without them saaln. Last winter my husband was taken with pluertey on both sides, and I know he would have died If It hadn't been for the Pills. In less than half an hour hs was sweating, and went to bed and slept" MRS.
