An adjourned session of the city
council was held last night at which
various matters of more or less inl­
portance were discussed and acted
upon.
The matter of sewer service for
the residents of South Willamette
street was brought up. E. F. Chap-
man addressed the council upon the
subject, stating that they could get
better service by connecting with the
Jefferson street sewer. A motion was
made and carried that the recorder
ask for blds for the proposed sewer
to the north side of Fourteenth street
Instead of Thirteenth.
A petition for a sidewalk on north
side of Thirteenth between Lawrence
and Jefferson streets was read and
referred to the street committee.
The matter of poor telephone ser­
vice was brought up and discussed.
A motion was made and carried to
appoint a committee to confer with
Manager Heaton In regard to the
matter. The mayor appointed Coun­
cilmen Garrett, Moon and Berger, i
This committee will also investigate I
the poor light service.
A proposal of Samuel Manerud to «
furnish crushed rock for street work
was referred to the street and fl-(
nance committees.
i
A. W. Gilbert and F. A. Anderson
were appointed to secure a right-of-
way for the canal at the site of the

Council agreed by motion to give

THE REASONS WHY
our trade is good and growing all the time, why people
who never patronized a Racket Store are doing so now,
why they were afraid the quality would not be good be­
cause the prices were so low, why hesitation to buy and
liberal ^purchases are made—is all because we are satis­
fied with small prof.ts, treat people on the square and do
as we agree.
