IMPORTANT COUNCIL MEETING Tomorrow evening’s session of the city council prom­ ises to be an interesting one, as several important quest ions will probably be discussed and acted upon at |his meeting, according to information given The Daily Tid­ ings. . • A short discussion pf. the more important of the questions which are scheduled to come before the council is made in the following editorials. The City Manager GOLF ENTHUSIASM The ordinance recently read at a cpuncil meeting, which vests the general management of the electric, water, I t is an encouraging sign to see the splendid support street and fire departments in one official, is scheduled to which is being given the sponsors of the new* Ashland he reported upon by the committee to which it was re­ golf club, which -has selected a site a few miles "south qf ferred.

TheJIaily Tidings is convinced that the city manager plan, as embodied in the ordinance which bus beeu prepar­ ed, holds possibilities of economy, efficiency and more extensive activities and improvements, and believes that it should be adopted by the council. Normal Improvement District Tn anticipation of the ojiening of the Southern Ore* lion Normal school Jlere, a movement for considerable sidewalk, curb and gutter construction in the streets in that section of the city was recently started. Tomorrow evening remonstrances against these improvements will be heard by the city council. I There may he many protests registered by the prop­ erty owners who will be assessed for the improvements, but The Daily Tidings hoi»es that these protests will be few and that even these few remonstrator^ may bç per- suuded to approve the movement and thus bring about the construction with no friction. • —T*Tliuni ttpi* nranv tmhbtoi wttjr these improvement? should be made—greater beauty, convenience and in-, creased property values, are a few. ♦ The protests seem to hinge mainly about thé belief that the costs will be prohibitive ttf sonic of the property owners. If the property owners who hold this as the main reason for their protest would carefully’ investigate the results which follow such improvemeqtsr they would no doubt find that in practically all cÀses the increased value of the property due to the improvements more thaiÿ offset? the small cost of the improvements. The situation here is unique in that almost coin­ cident with the making of these improvements there will be opened the normal school. One does not have to journey outside Oregon to /iu d an example of low the opeuing of a school of this nature affects local cilv profierty. It. is said that in CorvaMis property value! increased from four to eight times its original vaine due to the opening of the school there, nnd other similar installées could be cited.
