HELD MEETING
Dr. J. L Hill Occupies Cenier
of Stage at Meeting
Keid Last Night.
LIVELY .DEBATE ADDS
INTEREST TO SESSION
Other Matters of Interest Dis
posedof at Regular
Weekly Meeting.
insinuations lo the effect lluil the
council hail pa.-std upon the merits
of i;iinij ordinances without giving
the property owners due time to consult-v
Hie multer, were last night made
on the Iloor of the council chamber
by Dr. J. L. Hill and evoked a heated
dUcussiou in which the city authori-tie.-
tnoN direct issue it:i the speak
er. Dr. Hill contended that the taxpay
ers had been stung on the paving pro
position and in answer Lo a question
as to who they had been stung by,
he shouted that they stung themselves
by acepting the propositions as sub
mitted by the council when they were
ignorant of the facts. He asserted
that he has made a careful study of
the paving proposition, not only in
Albany but in other towns and re
iterated his statement that the people
have not gotten what they paid for
and that he believed that the taxpay
ers should be allowed to select their
own kind of pavement .it a minimum
cost.
The members of the council, in an
swer to Dr. Hill's allegations con
tended that the assertion was without
foundation. Incidents were cited that
discredited Dr. Hill's statement that
the paving matter was being rail
roaded and that there was no reason
for the people to be in ignorance of
the procedings attendant to the au
thorization of the pavement of a
street. The procedure of the council
relative to these matters was cited;
to :wit : that acording to a custom
that has been adopted, though not
required by law, the council would
desire to receive a petition signed by
the greater number of property own
ers along a street, representing the
greatest number of feet frontage, be
fore they would grant the pavement.
In the event a remonstrance repres
enting the majority should be filed
the petition would be thrown out. In
these petitions the kind of pavement
desired has always been stated.
The discussion arose over the mat
ter of the naving of Jefferson street
between Water and First streetf.
when a proposal from the Warren
Construction company for the im
provement of the block according io
the il;ms and specifications on file
in the recorder's office was read.
A petition for the improvement of
this block has never been filed is the
Oregon Electric Railway company,
one of the property owners, for some
reason could not sign the petition but
had expressed themselves as desirous
of having the street improved. John
Warner and a Mrs. Cleek are the oth
er uroivrtv o'vncrs in the bloeic and
although all of the proceedings fur thi
laying of the pavement have been per
formed, the proposal was lost last
night upon vote on the contention
that Mrs. Clerk opposed the pave
ment, having just learned of its con
templation. The report of the committee rn
streets and public pronertv. re n'!-
ing all action taken in the Second ;
street paving matter, was adopted.
Several proposals for the improve-1
merit of alleys and streets by navin.
from the Warren Construction Co. 1
vi'f'.' read and filed. I
A communication from Pres. J. H.
Young of the Oregon Electric to
Mayor Gilbert was read. It pertained
to the condition along the tracks on
Firth street and slated that the nec-t-snrv
repairs will be made in the
near future.
A communication from the Warren ;
Obstruction Co. stated that crushed i
gravel wr.uld be substituted for whole .
i:r.'tvrl in uvarini; surface of all gravel
bitulithie pavement laid by the com
pany during the present year without

It was learned today that the wid

pensions iall 1e paid directly to
those who are granted pensions. At
his own discretion the county judge
can make arrangements with mer
chants for eredit for widows who are
really in destitute circumstances hu'
before arrangements are made ?
must ascertain the cases :n which s:t h

tOO SLOW FUK ALEANY
SAYS
ROOSTER
awn
Claims Albany Time Is Ahead
Of Eugene; Oiher Comments
by the Sage.
Kugenc, June 10. 1U.
Kditor JVmoyrai:
Having visited Albany in May .'th
and living mi itupresM-d villi the im
provements made since my previous
visit that 1 feel liko I nuir-t' say a few
words through the Democrat express
ing my surprise at the growth that
Albany has taken on within the tew
short moil tits between my visits
The Hotel 1 1 annuel, a magnificent
'-s'ory building; the Kirst National
bank building, a beauty in architec
ture and fiui.sh, a live story structure,
and the new theater jut implied is
certainly a eredit to the ehy of Al
bany. Ami Kugcne will have to go
some when site tries ,to keep pace
with Albany.
When I arrived in Alb.-.tiy and look;
ed at tny watch and compared it wilh
the clock on the court house I was too
slow and thought tny watch had
stopped. So I set it with Albany
time. When 1 got back to Kugcne
and looked at the clock on the court
house 1 was way ahead of it, so the
thought struck me that Eugene was
too slow for Albany.
I noticed so many improvements
while in Albany that I oali't remem
ber all of them.
What struck me most forcibly was
the fine condition of the Masonic
cemetery. It shows that the order
takes great pride in caring for the last,
re.iting place of the departed.
Hut I am sorry to say the condi
tion of the City cemetery was cer
tainly not a credit to any community.
1 met a great many old friends dur
ing my short slay and all seemed to
still have that .same old hand, shake
that seems good to me.
I only have one short kick to make.
And that is I find sime of my old
friends are going to vote against the
U. of O. appropriation. Now don't
do it. Never east your vote against
any appropriation for higher educa
tion, especially your State University.
Let's have as good as any state or
better. Don't fight your educational
institutions but give thcin your , sup
port. Am sorry I did not meet the editor
when 1 called.
Yours truly,
SAGE ROOSTER.
