D elinquent Assesenients
Another m atter which pre­
sented Itself to us was the fact
that the city was the owner of
considerable property taken in on
delinquent assessments. - A n ag-
praisal board was appolhted and
appraisals* were made o f all such
property, and a selling price
fixed
thereon, v Several sales
were made in thia manner. I be­
lieve the new Mayor and Council
ran well afford to^ spend some
time In making a determined Ef­
fort to sell some of this, property

It bark on the tax rolls. It Is a
otable fact that on the Boule-
ard where two ciiy lots! have
been sold that two* very
fine
homes have been ballt thereon.
Street Improvements
One of the major things accom­
plished by the outgoing admin­
istration has been the matter of
street Improvements. Never In
the history of the city of Ashland
have the streets been as well
graded and cared for as they have
been during the past two years.
In addition to this, sidewalk, curb
and gutter Improvements have
been made on Laurel Street,
(Iranlte Street, Union Street, A l­
lison Street, Fairview
Street,
Iowa Street, Harrison
Street,.
Morton Street, Liberty Street,
Beach Street,
Henry ’ Street,
Holly Street^ Mountain Avenue; |
ra lm Avenue and C street. Many I
property owners have been re­
quired to repair existing aide- i
walks in order that the same j
might be safe for pedestrians. A |
test was made as to the efficiency |
of macadam paving on “Cf' ■
Street *and has been 4otand to be ■
very satisfactory for tbe amount I
of money expended. In con nee- |
tlon with tbe improvement of |
streets the out-going advfnistra- |
tlon passed an ordinance causing !
seven per cent of the receipts *
from the electrle light department I
to be transferred monthly to the |
street fund, thus, providing funds I
with which the street depart- |
ment should ba able In the future ■
to have the streets of Ashland on “
a par with any efty of Its size in I
the state of Oregon. It Is my be- |
lief that no program could be s«^- |
lected which would do thq,
more good than a program for !
{
well graded and well kept «trafts “
as the tourist and visitor from I
other cities notice the condition |
of the streets perhaps more than I
any other thing.

It was a favorite expression of Theophrastus that

Eterjr jnuiute spent in reading the advertisements in this
paper Iniiltiplies itself manifold in the time saved in

Advertisements are a’ straight line between demand
and supply,1 between spending and paving between purse
and .purchase. .They save your shopping time and con-
