There was a very strong feeling in

however, and 16 or 20 extra policemen
were put on duty Monday night. There
was much cause for public Indigna
tion to be aroused, as Mr. Withers
was one of the best sheriffs in Ore
gon .nnd his death is a great loss to
the state. A term of circuit court will
be held nt Kugeno In March, at which

COUNCIL
mm
CITY MAY BUY A TEN
TON STEAM ROLLER.
Representative of Manufacturing Co.,
Gives Detailed Description of Ma
chine, Which Costs $3750 Main
Street to be Graded Sisters of St.
Francis Protest Against Improving
Dyers' Lane.
Thete were present at the council
n.eetlng last. night Recorder Kits Gei
aid, City Attorney Carter, Street Com
missioner Fee, Fire Chief Witheo, and
Councllmen Sommervllle, Clopton.
Johnson, Swltzler and Dickson.
G. W. Evans, lepresentlng tho Bul
inlo Pitts Manufacturing Company,
outlined the terms upon which Ills
company would furnish a 10-ton steam
toller. The cost of such a machine
vouhl be $3,750 cash laid down hero.
There was practically no diffeience In
the piiw of the machine If bought on
time, except that the company natur
ally want interest on their money. An
other proposition was to lease the ma
chine vlrtuolly on ft trial for two yeais
but It would not cost any lqss If
bought under either a time agreement
ov under a lease.
Such a machine as it seems likely
the city will need, while it is called a
10-ton machine, really weighs when
empty 21,000, and when the coal tank
and water tank are both loaded, ready
lor operations, it weighs 27,000
pounds. The price given, $3,750. in
cludes pump, hose, tank and all fix
tures. A wheel attachment, by which
a rock crusher can be operated with
Its power will .cost $100 extra. The
bin, which is a part of the outfit, will
hold S00 pounds of anthracite or 500
pounds of bituminous coal. Mr. Evans
also stated that the engine would con
sume all the way from 500 to 1.000
pounds of coal per day of 10 hours.
Its working capacity he stated to bo
one ordinary block per day; that Is,
it will start with the untouched sur
face of spread rock and leavo it ready
for travel, one ordinary block per day.
He credits' it with a capacity for
rolling down ready for travel 100 tons
of rock, every 1G hours. Also that it
has a traction power equal to 20
horses. The point being raised of
whether it could climb the hills on
either' side of the city, Mr. Evans as
serted, and exhibited photographs sup
posed to substantiate the claims, that
it could, with its own motive power,
climb a grade of 28 feet to tho 100
feet.
Evans concluded by stating that his
company would at any time pay the
transportation of a committee to be
appointed by the council, from Pen
dleton to Portland to seo the machine
in actual operation. Tho council toolc
no action. It would probably have
taken action had not the mayor and
two of the council been absent. As
it was, the subject was turned over
Liquor Licenses,
The applications of Morgan & Bo
Bart, Russell & Co., and Gus Stangier
lor licenses to sell liquor, were favor
ably passed upon, and an order made
In each case for the license to be is
sued. Each application was accompa
nied by a bond, which was approved.
Grading of Main Street.
An ordinance was unanimously pass
ed for the grading of Main street be
tween Jackson and Wilson (two
blocks) and for sidewalking Main on
Loth sides from Jackson to Washing
ton 3treet (one block.) The cost of
the improvement to be assessed
against tho abutting property. The
petition for tho same was filed last
September.
Catholics Beg Free Water.
An address from tho Sisters of St.
Francis was 'introduced and read. Tho
address Is to tho following effect:
Trusting that In a few years we will
be better able to control tho debt con
tracted by us, incurred mainly for
tho improvement of the city and tho
benefit of its citizens, we petition the
city council to assist us till then by
allowing us free use of the city water
for the hospital. The address also sets
forth that owing to the present condi
tion of the finances of the order they

find it impossible to meet the expenses
of lmproviug tho eastern end ot Court
ptreet. (or tho order's shnre of the
expense of the Improvement) accord
ing to tho present plans. Tho address
simply states that the order is unable
to bear Its share of tho expense, but
makes no suggestion ns to how It may
be relieved from the burden. Tho
natural inference is that tho order
would prefer that tho work be not done
at all for ilio present. Tho nddress
concludes with the statement that the
order is now making arrangements to
build 700 feet of siduwnlk on Court
stieet, anil "feels obliged to protest
against other Improvements at tho
presont time." Tho address was re
ferred, without discussion, to the
stieet committee.
