principal address of the evening was
on civic pride and atreet paving and
was delivered by Colonel K. Hoter,
president of the Willamette Valley De

follows:
'"Civic pride and atreet paving are the
flrat and the last letters of the alphabet
of patriotism. All progressive policies
in a city must emanate from civic
pride. Personal pride In your Duslness
or personal enterprlae In Improving
your property or beautifying your prem-

. Colonel Hofer went on to tell of the
need of cooperation among citizens for
the permanent improvement of the mu-

now up to the city council to say
whether the work under the various
measures shall be commenced at once
or whether one project shall be taken
up at a time In the order of their necessity.
Ailuougn it is proviuea mm mo ciy
government may Issue tonds for dif
ferent Improvements to the
J5.226.00O, yet
to the extent or
these bonds will not be
Issued until the city council gives the
word. The acts simply authorize the
". Issuance of the bonds, but do not mak-i
their issuance obligatory or mandatory.
- Should the council decide It not to be
beat at this time to Issue the bonds
for any one of tha projects It could
, withhold action until sucn time as waa
' deemed .expedient.
It la very probable, however, that at
least some of the bonds will be Issued
at once, or as soon aa the necessary
legal steps can be taken, as there is a
necessity for the work authorized being
..done. .
Pipe 1.1ns Important.
First ot these perhaps Is the construc
tion of an additional pipe line from the
headworks of the Bull Run system to
the city. For this purpose bonds amount
' ' lng to $3,000,000 have been authorized.
No action was taken by the water board
at Ita meeting yesterday other than to
decide to remain passive until official
notice of the supreme court's decislou
: had been received.
Seeds of City Imperative.
In the belief of the city "authorities'1
who know the condltiona there Is a cry
- . 'tn twiuI far increased water supply.
1UI-
It la ontimated that It will require
iv two vears to complete mo jiismim
tlon of the new -pipe line from the time
It is started. Therefore, it is mougm
he city three
the new
that the work Of providing for this ad
dltional supply will be begun as soon a;
it can be brought to the attention of
the council uud an ordinance passed au
thorizing tna preparation or pians ana
specifications, the calling for bids and
the Issuance of bonds.
It is now planned to lay the contem
plated pipe double the capacity of the
present main supply line. At the pres
ent time the capacity of the system Is
22.800,000 gallons of water a day. The
main pipe has a diameter of 42 Inches
on the level stretches and of 35 and
83 Inches on the grades, according to
the steepness of the descent. The new
pipe will be double the capacity of the
existing one. thus giving th
times the present supply when
line is installed ana connected.
New Bridge Over River.
Provision is also made in the same
measure for the purchase or condemna
tion of reservoir sites, the construction
of reservoirs and the installation of a
water meter system. It is probable,
however, that the last portion will not
be heeded, as there seems to be a dis
position not to go to the expense of
Installing a meter system "in the city at
the present time.
Perhaps the second immediate proj
ect neoessary to be taken under active
consideration Is the issuance of 1460 -000
for the construction of a new Madi
son street bridge. The old brlde-e is
worn and in need of replacement. It la
?robable that the oouncil will take up
he question at once and take such
steps aa will hurry the work. One
MOHT OF COUNCILS
TO HtOPOSE CHANGES
IX CITY CIIAKTER
(Salru Bureau of The Journal.)
Salem, Or., July 16. Not only to the
city of Portland, but to the state at
large as well, Is the opinion rendered In
the Portland charter amendment case
by Chief Justice Bean of Importance.
It establishes the rule that oounclls in
all cities have the power to propose
amendments to the charter to be adopt
ed or rejected by the people of the city
"The amendment to the charter of
Portland," reads Chief Justice Bean's
opinion, "now under consideration, was
proposed and submitted by the council
In pursuance of, and In compliance with,
tne provisions of this law, but the
plaintiff contends that the law is void
in ao far as it authorizes such a pro
cedure. His position is that the right
of the voters of a municipality to
amend or enact a city charter is alone
oy virtue or tne initiative ana refer
endum amendment of 1902. as mads
applicable to municipalities in 1906.
and therefore an amendment to the city
cnarter can oe proposes: only Dy a pe
tition signed by the reau s te numbur
of voters, and any legislation providing
a oinereni procedure is void.
"The right of the voters of a mu
nlclpallty to enact or amend their city
charter ,1s not necessarily an initiative
power, it exists Dy virtue or the pro
visions of article 12, paragraph 2. of
tne constitution, and nut by virtue of
the initiative and referendum amend
ments. In the section of the constitu
tion, mentioned the exclusive right to
enact or amend a city charter is vested
in the voters, but as no provision is
made therein for the manner of exer
cising the power conferred, some law
was necessary upon the subjeot to make
it effective, and the law of 1907 was
adopted for that purpose.
"The amendment to the constitution
granting to voters of municipalities the
power to enact or amend their oharters
and the one extending the initiative and
referendum to municipalities was
passed at the same time. Both are
parts of the constitution and must be
construed together." Here an Astoria
case In point Is cited.
"It seems to us that general legisla
tion on the subject will prevail unless
the city has exercised the powers given
It by the constitution and enacted some
local leglslaUffli in jeferenoe to the
matter. Since it does not appear in
this case that there Is anv larlalattnn
of the city of "Portland conflicting with
tn provisions oi tne general laws regu
lating the method and manner of sub
muting to the people amendments to
the city charter, we are of the opinion
mat tne present amendment .was prop
erly submitted.
"A further contention la made bv tha
f'lajiimi ui a i. tne legislation in ques
lon is not an amendment to the char
ter, it purports, on Its face, however,
ana aoes, in ract, amend article 227 o
the charter as originally enacted by
wKuiur, vy auuionzwg tne is
suance by the city of an additional
bonded Indebtedness, and while In some
of its terms it may conflict with other
provisions or tne cnarter, it neverthe
less becomes a cart thereof, and u valid
as sucn.

Chicago, July 16. Illinois will be the
storm center of Democratic activities
during the coming campaign, according
to Urey Woodson of Kentucky, secre
tary of the national committee, who ar
rived hero todfiv from Lincoln and an
nounced that the main headquarters of
the committee will be located In this
oitv durlna the campaign. Woodson
said a branch office would be main
tained In New York, where the head of
fices were in 1904.
With Woodson were Chairman Thomas
I Tag art and John W. Kern, the vloe-
presldentlal candidate. Kern left at 1
'o'clock this afternoon for Indianapolis,

Taggart and Woodson both said they
were delighted with the results of the
meeting yeateraay at iiryan a term ana
they believe the determination not to
aceept contributions from corporations
or any contributions or more than no,
000 will redound greatly to the benefit
of the party In the campaign. They
also approve the determination to pub
lish the names or o contributors as i
wise as well as a proper course.
Woodson will make arrangements to
day for suitable rooms for the perma
