"Tho responsibility of an -elector In

declared Bryan In beginning hla apeech

As long as we persist In startlnar all
our Improvements by petition there will
never be anything but patohwork im

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

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

MACHINES BEING MADE BY EILERS -
PIANO HOUSE.
-1 -
The large . show window of Eilers Piano House is' de
voted to ' a wonderful display of costly instruments for .
the "reproduction of tone. To designate them as talking
machines would not do them justice. The finest is un
questionably a new $225 -style Reginaplione, this being un
doubtedly the highest achievement obtained as yet ia the
phonograph field.
The Victor Victrola is shown in several superb styles;
the prices are at $200 and $300.
An. instrument known as the "Auxetophone," wherein
an electric motor creates a powerful air current which
is forced against the reproducing diaphragm, costing $500,
is displayed in several styles. ' . . -,
Another instrument, shaped somewhat like a miniature
piano, is designated the "Symphony Grand." It possesses
most wonderful velvety tone qualities and costs $200. -
The double-sided discs are now being sold in Urg
quantities at Eilers Piano House.
The records, instead of appearing on one siJe of fha
' dise only, art placed oo both ardrs, furnishing virtually two
for the price of ore.
The only place is Tcrtlanl wbere atl makes tnd a'l rec-
