Toe ordinance through the opera
tion ot which, the $1,000 bond given
by the Rogue River Publlo Service
corporation will be declared forfeited
and made payable to the city ot
Grants Past was passed by the coun
cil last night, and It now In force
and effect. More than a year ago
the Public Service corporation,
through Manager Sanders, was grant
ed a franchise for the construction
ot an electric lighting system within
the city. A bond of f 1,000 was en
tered Into for the performanoe of the
terma of the franchise, which pro
vided that two miles of wire should
be erected within the city snd carry
ing current within nine months. The
time limit expired last spring, and
work upon the system within the city
had not been commenced. The bond
was given through the American
8urety company. The ordinance de
claring the forfeiture was up for ac
tion at a prevloua meeting, but was
laid over because of the request ,of
Mr. Sanders, who wrote from Salt
Lake stating that his activities In
tho interests of the sugar factory had
forced him to neglect the Publlo Ser
vice enterprises, and asking further
time.. In that letter he Indicated
that he would soon be In the city
again, and requested delay till In
August. The ordinance was laid over
for two weeks, but no further word
coming, the council last night took
action upon It. Six members, Coun
cllraen Bunch, Burkhalter, Demaray,
Herman, Knlps and Paddock, voted
for the forfeiture. Councilman Atchi
son voted against the passage of the
forfeiture ordinance, Indicating that
he favored granting the Sanders' re
quest till August. Councilman Burke
was absent,
Tbe ordinance amending the traffic
regulations ot the city was passed.
Under this all aiitoi and other
motor-propelled vehicles are required
to go to a street Intersection before
