Satisfaction guaran teed. ." Annexation is the paramount issue In the Mount Scott district With the end In view of securing Ball Run water, the residents of the Mount Scott district. Including Woodstock on the west. Wood mere on the east, a district four miles square, are petitioning for annexation to be effected at the general election in June. The Mount Mcott Annexation club has been formed among soma of the leading cltliena of the district, and meetings are held In different parts of the dis trict every few weeks. Dr. William DeVeny, Whitney Boise, K. 8. J. Mc Allister and other east aide olUsens have spoken to the property owners of the district at these meetings. After the principal addresses have been made It Is the custom to throw the Question open to the house, and a general dis cussion ensues. A vote Is also usually taken to determine how the sentiment stands. Sentiments Are Fronooaoed. At one time the feeling over annexa tion was bitter between those who op posed the step and those who were cir culating petitions. This feeling has to a great degree subsided, due to the ap proach of election and the number of other political question that confront the people. Property owners are much concerned In the annexation question yet. however, though the annexationists reel tnat they nave the majority on their side and that they will succeed In annexing the district to Portland In June. Petitions have been circulated In every part of the district, and a great many more names have been secured than is necessary. After the next meet ing of the annexation club, to be held Friday, Aprl J. the petitions will be presented to the rlty council, which body will be required to pass upon the measure before It can be placed on the ballot at the general election. Special attractions are billed for the meeting at Woodmere next Friday that will close the campaign for annexation, and a large attendance Is expected. trong Improvement Association. A great deal of good has been ac complished by the Mount Scott Im- Srovement association that has been urlng the winter one of the strongest of the great many civic bodies on the east side. Its great work has been the agitation for the Improvement of the car service In the Mount Scott district. The car service between East Forty eighth street and Lents was for months notoriously the worst In the city. The fight for better service cemented the Interests of the people of Mount Scott and the result was the formation of a strong push club. Ed T. Naghel has been the leading spirit In the club, and as president has guided It safely through many stormy days. The annexation question nearly disrupted the body completely, but by judicial handling- the club has avoided a position directly one way or the other on the question whether Mount Scott should be annexed to Portland. That has been taken up by another or- Sanitation in the dlstriot known as the ount Scott Annexation club. The Mount Scott association is also endeavoring at this time to raise suffi cient funds with which to buy a chem ical engine for fire protection. Should the volunteer company In Mount Scott acquire this chemical It will be the best equipped volunteer company In Oregon, and perhaps on the Paclflo coast The chemical which It Is proposed to buy will cost 1800. nearly all of which sum Is about subscribed. Meetings are held every Monday evening In the Kern Park drug store at Kern Park.
