Every feature of the petition 1 objectionable. A con sideration of Its evils should give every tnougntrui man pause. Xmportanoe of Subject. But th subject Is nevertheless on of great importance, far greater than we realise. The cities situated In older parts of our country are everywhere awakening to the Importance of mu nicipal improvement. Viewed from anv and ait standpoints, the subject is one wortny or the consideration or an oiti sens These older cities are carrying tnrougn . to completion improvements that should have been Inaugurated years ago, Sand, owing to the fact that the Initiation of these improvements has been so long delayed, the cost of mak ing them is greatly Increased. The clti sens of Portland, while the city is still In its infancy, should take time by the forelock and turn their serious attention to the problems presented by street Improvement. 'A city tnat is improved enjoys tre -I he will have to meet afur h has taken tltl to the property. The averaae buyer prefers to pay those assessments in tne rorm or purcnaa price , rather than to be subjected later to tha annov anoe of vexatious street work. To be euro, good streets do not guarantee to any olty supremacy, but, other things being eaual, thev constitute a distinct savaniage, and no city that possesses unimproved snd unattractive streets can lay Just claim to metropolitan su premacy. xmaao.naejr or cnaner. "Unfortunately th condition of th streets in this city Is not all that the lovers of Portland could wish, and it is tne purpoae to point out in idis ar tide that this result is not so much to be attributed to lack of publlo spirit as to tha Inadequacy of the legal machinery oy means or which improvements are Inaugurated. , It was doubtlees the theory of th framers of the Portland charter that the council should be vested with a large discretion in determining the necessity for any given Improvement, Its nature and extent, and the district which would be benefited by Its completion. A discretion such as we have outlined was given the council by the charter. In the exercise of this discretion the ooun. oil has the unquestioned right to take uu tue preliminary eiepa aucn a order ing a survey and estimate of the co of the proposed improvement. When this has been done the council Is then empowered to declare by resolution Its intention to mass tne improvement. This resolution Is then published and witnin 20 days thereafter the owners of the property affected have the right to remonstrate against the proposed ImDrovement. This remonstrance must be Blamed by the owners of four-fifths of the property owners. Up to the time wnen a remonstrance could ne rued tne firocedure that we have just outlined is n accordance with the provisions of the present charter aa amended. . Initiation by retlttoa. "The practice, however. adoDted In this city is quite different from the theory. About three years aso the street committee adopted a rule to the effect that street improvements must be lniated by petition and at that time tney required tne owners or one-tnira of the property affected to sign the netltlon. Within a c weeks this rule has that the owners of only one-fifth need sign such a netltlon. The committee discovered by experience that when an the method laid down by the charter the the powsr t determine eonelualvely all Ui Uaue In hla fa,vor Is alieurd.
