Alodl'ord is without a mayor and sonic ot tho oonnoil nion aro on rocord as assort will not listen to petitions and that tho oonnoil is tull.v ooinpotont to uovcrn tho city. At tho risk of commit lint? ask. hy doos not tho oonnoil protost tlio use ot L rails on Alain street? Every ?ossihle loiliinato onoouragoinent should ho trivon Air, .Bullis in his enterprise, hut this should not include the right to ruin Alain street hy the wronjr style of rail. The council i$ the paid representative of the oity paid to look after Alodford's welfare and safeguard tho peo ple's interests. Let us see how they protected the eity in the "Bullis franchise." Tho franchise granted to Alinney by the former admin istration last January read: Section l That therein and horoby I prontod to L T. Mlnnoy. hl Heirs nnd asatans, SUUJUCT TO UKUOLATION UY TllK CITY, the tran ehifc rlU, etc. AVhen the franchise was transferred to Hullis by the present council this section was changed to read: Section 1. That there be and hereby la sntntod to Sponsor it. Uullle. hla heirs nnd nwlius, tho franchise, rlnh-, etc. The words SUBJECT TO KKOULATIOX 15V TIIK CITY have been carefully eliminated wherever they oc curred in the franchise. The council thereby gave Bullis carte blanche to do as he pleased and removed all right of restriction or control by the. city. "Was this safeguarding tho people's interest The Alinney franchise especially protected the city against a possible trolley monopoly and loft the way open for a competing line, should such line desire to enter, by the following clause: It is understood and akreerf. however, that the said M. T. Mluney. his helm and atvign. hall not have tho right to designate on nld map or to build, conetrmt or oicrate wild street railway or railways upon ttoth Jickiron street and Main xtroot In antd city, hut nhall hnvo the riant to select, for x.tld iurKte only, one of said utreets. Nor Khali tho said M. T. Mtuney. hla hnirs or aaelient, deelKiiate on xald man or construct, iiinliitalu or operate said strict railway line or lines upon both Ceutrul aseauo ami Klverslde avenue in said city, but shall have the rlnht to select nil detonate one only of said streets for said purpwo. Under this franchise, if the Oregon Electric or other lines desired entrance to the city, tho door was left open, north and south, cast and west This protective feature was eliminated by tho council in executive session when they cut out this paragraph and Fubstitutcd the follewing: Provided always however, that first a wrltton demand for the con struction and operation of a lino of railway unon such street be given to the sold Spencer S. Hullis, his liolrs or usaJKns, operating under thU Tranchlsc; that within ninety days nrter the receipt of Mich demand tho said Spencer S. Hull!, his belrs or assigns operating under this franchUo, hrll tile with the city clork ot tho city of Medford a declaration of accept an eo or rejection of such demand; that lu the wont of acceptance by said operating company, tho right of said Spencer S. Ilullls, his heirs or ngsluus operating compmy to construct and operate a line of rallwny In such street or alley shall be first and paramount, upon condition that construc tion thereon hy the said operating company bo commenced within thirty days from the date thereof, and bo proceoded within all reasonable speed. Titus Air. Bullis can head off any competing line and is given a monopoly of the city's streets. Was this safeguarding the people's interests? Section -I of the Alinney franchise provided that the' trolley builders "shall improve and keep in repair that portion 'of each street so occupied, lying between a point twenty inches beyond the outside rail of said track." This has been changed in the Bullis franchise to read, ".one foot beyond the outside rail," instead of twinty inches, and the clause has been added exempting the trol ley operators from cleaning and sprinkling the tracks. "Was this safeguarding the people's interest? Section 0 of the Alinney franchise previded: Said city shnll havo tho rlfiht to require bald M. 7 .Mlnnoy, his heirs or assigns, to furnish a good and sufficient bond In such amount as said city shall doom proper, with good nnd sufficient security to bo approved by tha city council of said city, to secure the proper restoration ami repair of any street in said city before tho said M. T. Mlnney, his heirs and ubilgnB, shall lmve tho right to excavate on any of said streets. . This clause has been eliminated in tho Bullis franchise, and Air. Bullis can tear streets up at will, without restric tion and without being forced to give protection to the city. Was this elimination safeguarding the people's in terests? Section 11 is amended so as to permit operation to lapse, for a period of four months before the franchise is void. This permits Ah Bullis to suspend operation at his own will and the city is powerless to obtain redress. "Was this safeguarding the people's interests? There aro other minor changes, such as taking away from the city council power to fix compensation for the use pf Alain street tracks by other trolley lines, but all changes made arc in favor of Bullis and involve a loss of power by tlie city. Jt may be said, "What is tho use of protest, now the damage has been (lone? Of course there is no use it is our own fault we left it to the council, paid to safeguard the city's interest. But it shows how faithfully and efficiently the council protects the city's interest and safeguards the taxpayers' welfare. The council litis signed away the dity's rights. for ft mess of T rails.

Lep ers apprehended and detained at quarantine weio depnrled to the for eign country from which Ihev came. This regulation is practically in force at the present lime.
