It Is Found That No Contract Now
Exists Between the City of Pendle
ton and the W. & C R. Railway,
Regarding Webb Street Old Con
tract Void.
The city council last night:
Ordered an ordinance drawn
giving the city power to en
force Improvement of Webb
street by the W, & C. R.
Accepted report of committee
appointed to locate street
grades.
At the meeting of the city council
last night, the matter or requiring the
W. & C. R. railway to plank the
tracks and grade Webb street, was
thoroughly discussed.
City Attorney Charles Carter filed
fa written opinion on the matter
which set forth that the contract
signed by the old O. & W. T. company
in which that company agreed to keep
the track planked, and the street in
good condition, would not bind the
W. & C. R. cohmpany, which now
owns and operates the road.
Mr. Carter placed the legal status
of the case before the council in the
most lucid manner He said the only
means by wmcn tne council cotiiu

The committee .appointed by the
council to estabiish street grades
north or the river reported through
its chairman, Frank B. Clopton.
The report was an elaborate docu
ment, which covered all the minor
details of the matter fully. The com
mittee reported that in most cases the
grade had been established to corres
pond to the contour of the ground, in
order to render the construction of
the grade as cheap as possible to the
taxpayers and property owners, but
in some few instances, where ravines
were encountered, the committee lo
cated the grade in the manner best
suited to the situation.
