To Ihe Honorable City Council, of tbe city of Lebanon Linn county, Oregon. uentlemen: I herewith re turn to you ordinance bill No. 36, without my approval. I have care fully examined this bill and among things I desire to call your attention to certain objectionable features. p The prov Ision of the bill apply only ( to steam wood saws, while there are other engines that do even greater damage to our croes walks n jt included in this bill which seeks to preserve aud protect crosswalks. , To impose a tax on wood saws will tend a fear to make tbe business of sawing wood a monoplv and thereby raise the price. I believe an ordinance of this kind should afford thorough protection to our cross walks aud at the same time not tend to create a monopoly of the business of sawing wood. I herefor veto tbe ordinance. Signed, 51. A. Miller, Mayor of tbe City of Lebanon. The Choral.
