They want their streets well lighted and proper grades established so that curbs can be put down and sidewalks laid, and they want adequate fire pro tection and more water mains and all the municipal accessories that made their union with the city a move to be desired. As tbs Lenta demand can be complied with that should be done, for there is nothing unjust or unreasonable about it in anny way. Lents people pay taxes on their property in propor tion to it« value, just as the people of all other sections of the city pay like taxes, to secure to the municipality generally the very advantages for which they aek; and as they pay their money to the tax collector they are certainly entitled to value received just as soon as the city can meet the obligation. Beyond a question the city govern ment will take this equitable view of the matter, and the Lente people will find themselves in due course of time on the same footing of consideration with the people of any other suburb. Meanwhile the l-ents folk should be reasonable and patient, for as Rome was not built in a day neither can such a miracle be performed in Portland.
