CAUTIONS PORTLAND TO LOOK CAREFULLY INTO GARBAGE PERMIT "Portland, Or., Sept 10 To the Live Members of the Portland Push Clubs and Others Having read In the Port land newspapers of a proposition before the city council, where a franchise is being sought by private Individuals for the collecting of and disposal of garb age, I thought it a matter of Impor tance to suggest to the people of this city that they Insist that no action be taken on this matter until the people of this city have a chance to voice their rmiments. "I sm a recent arrival In this city, coming from Seattle, where the collection of garbage has been In the hands of firlvste Individuals, and any one know ng the trouble Seattle citlsens have had with tnis private garbage trust (so railed) wljl not allow the same condi tions to prevail In the city of Portland. "In Seattle you pay the garbage com pany an exorbitant price to remove your garbage, and whether he calls once a week or once a month, and you are dis satisfied, you cannot get another wagon to dispose of your refuse. I notice also that jhe company desiring a franchise In Portland will remove the refuse from the city fire departments free of charge. I should think they would: they cnuld dispone of each load at a very nice maiy gm or pront rrom Hundreds of garden ers, who, I am sure, would be glad to call and take it away without any ex pense to tne city: gardeners In eastern cities are glad? to pay a stated amount per month for the privilege of hauling away the fire department and livery barn manure. So I say the above com pany is not offering anything to the city or Its- people. "I do not believe this cltv ahouM at. low any private Individuals to have the above franchise, because this ( matter which affects the most vital in terests of the people, namely the health. The collection of garbas-e ahnnM h. under the direction of the health de partment; in no other way will the city be assured of right condition an as health Is concerned; also the expense win utj man n mira wnat the citl sens win oe oDiigeo 10 pay to the prl- rkiwe runn'inr, ana me city will give inr Deixer service.
