THE STRANGER ;
. WITHIN OUR GATES
. Mrs, J. W. Stone, Garyr Ind. Just on
a visit, which I am enjoying every mo
ment. We have seen Council Crest, your
City park, and all the hills surround-'
ing tne cuy.-r My, out mis is a neautirui
city. Why, I lived in San Francisco,
Detroit and Chicago, but all of -them put
together can't compare with Portland
for natural beauty. That's what I like
about this place. , v . -j

' t B. C. Dennis, Sacramento, Cal. Crops
-In the Sacramento valley never 'looked
'better . than this, season and everything
points to one of the most -successful
years In the history of northern Gali-i
qnita.:;-The .mlr.ef,;too; afOMMng. up
some valuable ores and the heat la not
so .fierce as it might be, and altogether
Jit In about time td rejoice. ;
City Auditor Barbur was right, ac
cording to City Attorney Grant, In f e-
fusing to agree to a simple transfer of
deeds with , the Northern Pacific Ter
minal company Over the exchangj of the
lets at Thirl and GMsan streets, The
lot sold by the city to the company was
purchased to secure sufficient ground
for the west approach to the1 new steel
bridge. The one purchased by the city
from the company Is adjoining, and Is
supposed to be for a fixe station. .The
nrice for each lot Is the same. '.
It was through clever work on 'the
part of the terminal company ' and At
torney Cyrus A. Dolph, representing the
company, that the deal was put through
the council, Everything went' all right
until Attorney Dolph carried , o'ff - the
deed of the lot sold the city to the Iclty
hall, and asked Auditor Barbur to accept
it, and to tifrnr over the deed to the other
lot The city official refused. .
i In giving his reasons, Auditor Barbur
said the ordinance under which ,the deal
was made specified, that one lot should
be sold and the other purchased for the
amount received for the fixst lot. He in
slated ' that tils book should show the
actual transfer of cash, deed and ab
stract. City Attorney Grant Was asked
for an opinion, and has 'told him that
the terminal . company must submit ait
abstract with the deed, so title to the
lot can be Investigated.
The auditor is ready to turn over the
deed, abstract and warrant for $12,105
o the company for 'the -lot purchased.
when the terminal company submits the
deed, abstract and $12,105, the price of
the lot. for the bridge approach.
THREE, PARK POUCEMEN .
.ASK. FOR INCREASED PAY
' The park policemen want their salary
Increased. They advance three reasons
for an Increase In a tetltlon ; filed yes
terday witn ye city council. - Thejr first
reason , Is that the work -Is ; becoming
Tery arduous as i, the; warm weather
advances. They claim ; they .have to
creep under bushes, walk In dark places,
be everywhere and see everything. This
program of tlfe day extends over about
15'' hours. wri'.wfi :V'' c:fr't'v
Their second reason for more money
la that the Increase in the coBt of living
has necessitated - heavier expenses in
their, homes, The third reasonrls that
the park policemen are Just as good as
city policemen, who ; receive $100 " a
month, - and do not 1 do as much work
as the park police, say the latter, i Jul
"We have to buy our own uniform,
like the city police, and are on duty more
