The Kast Oregon receiv- 4 ed a phone report this afternoon from the Wallu Wulla Bulletin stating that a summary of the 0 Wimhlnarton state vote on the two luiuor amendments shows that 4) both were badly defeated in all parts of the state. One am- endnient had been submitted by the brewers, the other by the 4 hotelmen. The controversy between the Stand ard oil Co. and property owners in the vicinity of the local plant of the company had an airing last evening before the council and may be set tled at a special meeting this evening. L. G. Fruzier aud his sister. Miss Kfft'e Jean Fraiier. presented a re monstrance against the granting of a permit to the Standard Oil Co. to move their tanks on to a lot in front of the Fraiier property. They were represented by Charles H. Carter who imbued nut that the plans of the com. pany. if carried out, would reduce the alue of the Frailer property besidei increasing the fire risk. t-ni. .r H. Rale.v represented the company and stated that the company had altered its oriclnal plans so tniu the tanks would not be as close to the Fraiier house if moved as they are at present. However, Mr. Fra aier still objected to the relocating o the tanks. The company had Intro duced an ordinance which grants per mission for the removal and main tenance of the tanks as desired and which would hold the city harmless in case of damage to private prop erty In case of fire. The ordinance was not voted upon but it was aereed that before any ac tlon was taken that the entire coun cil together with the two parties to the controversy would look over th situation this morning, and that ths council would meet this evening to make a decision.
