The Lewlston Tribune says of the council meeting at which the matter was again threshed out this week: With chaises that there bad been an unfair discrimination against bit ulitblc pavement In the specifications prepared by City Engineer Ouillund, and approved by the council for the paving work; with the defeat of ft motion to reject all bids except those for wood block and asphalt, and with citizens urging the council to act fa vorably to bitulitblc and allow the will of the property owners to govern, the meeting of the city council last night was a very Interesting one. It contained also as a little spice some very pointed criticisms. Xi bid was accepted, action being postponed until Saturday night and just before the meeting closed there was some I talk of turning back again to the pe Jtilion plan, which has taken such con spicuous part In the year's dellbcra 'tions that the council has devoted to I tin paving subject.

The British steamer Stiathlyon chared yesterday afternoon for I-ith, Scotland, with a cargo of 37,373 l ushiis of wheat and 228,121 bushels of barley, valued at $175.90. The steamer left down last night, says the Oregon Daily Journal. This Is the second large steamer cargo of grain set afloat here this month, the Hrltish steamer Mraemount having departed a few days ago with a cargo of wheat for Kurope. The French bark Eu gene Fautrel sailed a few days ago vith a wheat cargo for Europe, she belnjf the first sailing vassd to clear luring the month. With several steamers and a dozen or so sailing vessels here to load and a good deal of wheat coming In from the Interior warehouses, September bids fair to roll up a fine wheat exporting record, possibly the best In the history of the port.

Medford was In every respect favorable for such an establishment u's Mr. ,Cffey wish-, ed to Install but there could not be found a "single building that would answer the purposea required. There is a break of 21 cents per cwt on lambs In Chicago and persistent rumors ore abroad that top lambs will be selling at $5.50 Inside a week or two. Fancy yearlings are worth $4.50, best wethers and ewes at $1.25, but bulk of the western sheep and year lings are moving at $4 to $4.20. Country buyers are paying $4.00 to $4.10 for feeding lambs, $3.10 to $4.10 for feeding wethers and year lings and up to $4.21 for breeding ewes.

Charles Palm has returned from the east to find a dun from the slier Iff's office for $835.42 due as taxes, lie has a receipt showing that these taxes were paid last spring, but the sheriff's books don't show It. There are over 100 cases of double ajid triple assessments nn the book"", and twice as many pieces of proper ty not on the lists. Doesn't this sort of business need reform? Why, then, do the commissioners vote against It? Ill- Kiidgc for Ontario.
