Boodlimi in The" Dalles.
r
Two or three hoodlums abused the
hospitality of the Chinese today. They
entered one of the wash houses, and
after begging some cigars, one of them
deliberately helped himself to some
money which was lying on a table. , A
remonstrance being raised, he struck
one of the Chinamen in the face, but
dropped the money and all went out.
If a boy has no better sense of decency
than this at .the age of 16 or 18 years he
never will have. ' No arrests have yet
been made, but if the Chinese were not
the very mild people they are they would
either have the young man punished
through process of law, or take it . out of
his hide. .
The Chinese are not the only sufferers
from hoodlumism in The Dalles. The
churches have been bothered for years
by these nnruly disturbers of peace and
decorum, and it has resulted in the
trustees of the Methodist church re
cently issuing an order to the ushers to
promptly eject all hoodlums at the first
attempt at disorder. They promise to
stand by them in their action. Other
churches should adopt the same meas
ure. A little muscular religion is some
times not out of place.
Looking: at the New Road.
The mayor and two members of the
city council viewed the proposed new
road to the East End, which was the
eubject of an extensively signed petition
Saturday night. They found that the
route is impracticable for the reason of a
tremendous v grade " encountered after
reaching Fourth, and Jefferson streets,
where the road turns to elimb the hill,
accomplishing the remainder of the
climb at about an angle of thirty-five
degrees, and in the space of one square.
Though it would not be necessary to cut
down a tree and drag it from the rear of
the wagon, as was done in 'the early
days, it would be politic to rough-lock if
the wagon was very" heavily loaded
while making the descent. . A better
way was 'shown them by Mr. B. F.
Laughlin, which is to. keep below the
bluff, and climb gradually nntil a de
pression is met leading to 6 street, past
Mr. Bert Thurston's house, and on to
the high land, where several roads
branch out in all directions. This route
would be much less expensive, and a
great number of subscriptions of work
be secured. . " -

NEW ROAD PROPOSED.
And Other Afatters Considered by tbe
City Council.
The city council met in regular session
Saturday night, -present 'Mayor Kreft
and Councilmen Butts. Lauer. Crowe.
Joles and Eshelman. The recorder was
absent during the early part of the even
ing and the minutes were read by ex
recorder Frank Menefee.
A petition, signed by many' taxpayers,
was read, to make a new road leading
to the East End down the hill, by grad
ing Fourth street to Jefferson from Jef
ferson to "G street, from such point
southerly to the southeast corner of the
district fair grounds, thence in a south
easterly direction to the city limits, and
making all necessary cuts and fills.
The petition was accompanied by a sub
scription of $250 in work. A motion
prevailed to take the petition under con
sideration. Mr. Jack Elton, who was
present, than arose and pleaded the im
portance of the improvement prayed
for. 1 He said that he would bond him
self for furnishing tbe earn of $1,500 in
work ' should the proposition be favora
bly considered ' by the council, and a
suitable sum appropriated by the city to
aid in completing the road. ' Mr. Elton
said that tbe main support of the city
comes from that direction, and that this
drive road was needed to the depot and
freight bouses. The road should be 16
feet wide and covered with crushed
rock. .The mayor said the petition was
out of order, because many of the names
upon it did . not own property adjacent
to the improvement. Aid. Joles claimed
that this would not affect its regularity,
as without ' those names there were
three-fourths if not four-fifths of all
the property-owners concerned repre
sented in the petition. Aid. Eshelman
likewise thought the other names did
not hart the petition. Mr. Elton again
tried to take the floor, bat the mayor
would not permit it. . Aid. Lauer moved
that the petition be referred to the com
mittee on' streets and public property.
Amended by Aid. Joles; to refer it to
committee of the whole, so that every
member could vote intelligently upon it
when- it arrived atjthat stage. Amend
ment accepted by mover of motion and
carried.- .':.- -
An offer to bay the grist mill appara
tus owned by. Dalles City for $300, by
Mr. J. C. Lucky was reported ' from the
water 'commissioners with the recom
mendation that the offer be accepted.
". The mayor asked for a report from the
finance committee on the matter of in
vestigating the treasurer's report.
Chairman Joles of that committee said :
'? Your honor, life is too short; thpt
is my report. If a proper investigation
of the treasurer's report is made it will
have to begin with tbe incorporation of
Dalles City." The question developed
that while the treasurer's reports are
very plain and easily understood, there
are old balances shown upon it which
are. the bequest of former incumbents
ad, infinitum, and that the best thing to
do is to take them on trust and carry
them along with the proper explanation:
On motion the reports of officers were
deferred till special meeting.
, . Street Commissioner Maddron made a
verbal report on a number of cross walks
that needed repairing, and was informed
by his honor that it was his business to
