The city council met in regular session
at the city hall Monday evening with
Mayor Gil!iam in the chair.
Counciluien Noble, Rhea and Cohn
answered to roll call. Absent, Roberts,
Farnsworth and Quaid. '
This was an interesting meeting and
was attended by quite a number of
citizens for the reason that final action
was to be taken on the question of grant
ing a railroad franchise to the Heppner
Railroad & Coal Company to construct
a railroad from the depot through the
city to connect with the Willow Creek
surveys.
When the franchise question came up,
C. E. Redfield, representing the Hepp
ner Railroad & Coal Company, offered
an amendment to the original ordinance.
The original ordinance designated the
franchise for the road to go up Gale
street to May street, and from May
street to Court street.
The amendment offered by Mr. Red
field was for a change of the franchise
for the line to go from the depot and
follow Willow creek to connect with the
previous survey.
A map showing the route was pre
sented. The amendment was adapted
by a unanimous vote.
Mayor Gilliam asked the council if
they desired to act on the ordinance.
Councilman Geo. Noble stated that he
preferred to have a more complete rep
resentation of the council before taking
action on this important question.
Mayor Gilliam in an address to the
council sta'ed that he was not in favor
ot the council consisting of only four
members passing on the question.
By motion, a recess was declartd
until Tuesday to take final action.
As to the requests of the company, no
opposition was offered by any one, the
delay being caused by a desire for de
liberate and careful action.
Petitions of Mike Roberts, Frank
Natter and D Matlock for runewal of
liquor licenses, granted.

As per adj inmniaot the council met
again Tuesday evening to take up the
matter of the franchise.
Mayor Gilliam and Councilmen Nobl,
Rhea, Q laid and Cohn answered to roll
oall.
The ordinance for the change in the
mate for the road was introduced as or
dinance No, 99, making a new ordinanoe.
By motion of Councilman Rhea, the
roles were suspended and the new or
dinacce was read second and third
times and placed on final passage.

Feed pale girls on Scott's
Emulsion.
We do not need to give all
the reasons why Scott's
Emulsion restores the strength
and flesh and color of good
health to those who suffer
from sick blood.
The fact that it is the best
preparation of Cod Liver Oil,
rich in nutrition, full of healthy
stimulation is a suggestion as
to why it docs what it does.
Scott's Emulsion presents
Cod Liver Oil at its best,
fullest in strength, least in
taste.
Young women in their
' teens " are permanently cured
of the peculiar disease of the
blood which shows itself in
oal e r. ess, weak n ess and n e r vo u s-
ness, by regular treatment
vith Scott's Emulsion.
It is a true blood food and
is naturally adapted to the cure
jf the blood sickness from
which so many young women
suffer.
We will be glad to cnd
a sample to any sufferer.

To I in in i(r ratio ii Hill.
Washington, Jan. 30. Senators Pen
rose, Lodge and Fairbanks, leading
memberB of the Senate committee on
immigration, who have in charge the
immigration bill, have been in con
ference today with other members of
the Senate with a view to obtaining an
agreement on the bill whereby its
passage can be secured. Senator
Lodge, who was the special champion
of the educational test for immigrants,
has agreed to allow that the provision
he withdrawn, providing that unanimous
consent be given for the passage ot the
bill after the araendent is withdrawn.
There are, however, a few Senators
who are not satisfied, and who may
oppose the bill, even with the edu
cational provision eliminated. It is
generally believed that the passage of
the bill is impossible, unless all op
position can be removed.
Hitter Cold I11 Alaska.
San Francisco, Jan. 30. Alaska is
undergoing the severest Winter that has
visited the Northern country in 20 years.
Even the Eskimos, who are accus
tomed to the cold, are suffering. The
litt'e c idfishing Bchooner Pearl, which
has arrived from the North, brings news
of the condition of affairs in the ice
bound land. Tho Pearl comes from
Unga, Alaska, with 18,000 codfish. Her
officers state that the themometpr at
Unga fluctuated between 10 and 12 deg.
below zero. Snow has fullen, cover
ing the ground to a great depth. The
white men residing in Unga were grert
ly affected by the cold. The crew of
the Pearl also suffered.
The Pearl had a hard time fightirg
her way out of the ice. For Iti days the
schooner lay motionless in 6n ice field,
200 miles from Unga. Only by strenuous
efforts was Captain Ipeen able to free
his vessel from the pack and reach open
water.
