The city council met in adjourn­
ed sessions Saturday and Monday
evenings. The petition for the
widening and extension of south
fifth street was granted.
Ordinance 271 providing for the
paving of Main street with bithu­
lithic pavement was duly passed
and signed.
Ordinance 272 providing for the
paving of Fourth street with bithu­
lithic pavement was duly passed
and signed. Bids will be called for
at once.
The remonstrance against a
curbing with thg improvement of
Cherry street was accepted and
the street will be improved without
the proposed curbing. _
The city engineer was instructed
to run lines for the extension of
south Third street which will cut
oil corners of the Baughman and
Frank Oarroutte lots.
A petition of property owners on
Main street asking that the Ilas-
sam pavement be used at a cost
not exceeding $1.75 per square
yard was read and placed on file.
[Th is is looked upon as a scheme
to delay or hold-up paving as it
would necessitate the drafting and
passage of a new ordinance which
would require at least a month.—
Ed.]
A letter from the Carbolineum
Wood Preserving Co. of Seattle,
concerning wood block pavement
was read and tabled.
The tentative bid of the Warren
Construction Co. for the paving of
Main street with bithulithic pave­
ment and with full and complete
specifications was read and tabled.
The tentative bid of the same

streets, or $2.55 for Main alone
and $2.22 for Fourth alone.

cut off live feet of the front of his
brick which extends that much
over the sidewalk line on Main
street, at the city’s expense, was
rejected.

selling water to persons through
whose property the I.ang Creek
pipe line will pass, was passed.

ager of the Eugene Commercial
club, bids goml-bye to Oregon and
the United States, and with his

the German government to furnish
the meat during the Franco-Fruss-
iati war.

Secretary Rosenberg of the Com­
mercial club is in receipt of a letter
and. a petition addressed to the sen­
ate of the United States gotten out
by the National Grange but which
is of interest to all, requesting that
the Seuate pass an appropriation
of $500,000 for the extension of
the work of the office of public
roads under the jurisdiction of the
department of agriculture and
which appropriation has been fav­
orably reported ou by the Seuate
committee appointed to look into
the matter.
Farmers and business men alike
are and should be interested in this
bill which will result iu widespread
and permanent reform iu tlie pres­
ent methods of public highway
construction
and maintenance,
under which it is estimated that of
the $90,(HK),000 annually expend­
ed for road improvements at least
one half is practically wasted
through lack of knowledge ou the
part of the local road authorities.
The greater part of this money
could be saved by giviug these lo­
cal officials the benefit ol expert
advice and assistance by the train­
ed engineers of a prqpefly equip­

and it is with tUis object in view
that the proposed appropriation is
sought.
Secretary Rosenberg requests
that aU parties interested call at
his office in the club and sign the
petition so it may be acted on at
the present session of Congress.

The German society has decided
to hold a picnic at its park west
of Cottage Grove on July Fourth,
and a committee of eight has been
appointed by president Venske to
make arrangements therefor. The
grounds will be handsomely deco­
rated with bunting and flags, and
there will be good music for danc­
ing. The celebration will extend
into the night, and Japanese lan­
terns will illuminate the grounds
and dancing platform. The so­
ciety is rapidly increasing in metn-
| bership.
Mrs. Wallace Beaver of just north
of the city park brought to the
j Leader office Friday afternoon a
| choice selection o f berries as fol­
low: phenomenal, logan berry,
red and black raspberries mam­
moth black berries and Oregon
champion
gooseberries.
Mr s .
Beaver informs the Leader this is
the first season that small fruits
have been raised by them on their
property. A few more equally
energetic citizens would insure a
permanent local supply of small
fruits. The best of everything in
horticultural lines can be produced
here.
