Requests from the saloon men of
the city that the unexpired llcenso
fees bo refunded placed the council
In ft posltlo.1 where they were forced
to Jump, but no matter which way
they oro Hire of lighting hard, nnd
causing u reaction, but after somo
consideration, both serious nnd oth
erwise, on ii'ollon of Hanks It was
decided to Jump nccordlng to law nnd
regardless of the fact that city war
rants nro woith only ninety cents on
the, dollar nnd tho demand Is not
strong at thut figure, the saloon men
1 will receive for every dollar that they
'paid Into the city exchequer In cash
one dollar In city warrants, or timet)
cents In cash If they can get It. Tho
I question that confronted tho council
was that tb saloonmen were entitl
ed to dollar for dollar for tho amount
duo them on unexpired licenses, but
lo pay tho discounts on the warrant
would be llloitul and somo ono would
bo sure to contest tho warrants. On
the other bund tho saloonmon will
receive virtually ouly ninety ceuta
on the dollar and ft damage eult
agalnot th city to likely to follow.
Councilman Ankeny was of the
opinion that ponio ot the prohibition
ists should bo willing to pay more
thau ninety cents on the dollar for
the warrants, while Councilman Cris
pier oald he would pay the amount
ouly that '.a had forgotten his purse
and had no chnngo with him. How
ever, after giving tho matter consid
erable serious consideration, and set
ting tho opinion of the city attorney
tho motion of Councilman Hanks,
I that the amounts bepald without al
lowing any additional sum to cover
the discount on the warrants, was
passed by u unanimous rote.
No action at yet hat been taken
by any ot the saloonmen to sue for
the amounts necessary to cover the
dUcounts nu tho warrants. The
amounts 4u-) on unexpired licensos
nggregato ttpproxlmately $1000.
Surveying Chewaucan Project.
Englneora In the employ of tbe
Portland Irrigation Company are
again at work on tbe survey for the
reclamation project In the Chewau
can valley. The project, If construct
ed, will Irrigate about 12,000 acres
of land laying to tbo north ot Pals-
ley. This projoct has been under
way for sevoral years, but aside from
acquiring n few rights ot way and
running a low preliminary lines no
actual work was dono-by the com
pany, It Is encouraging to tbo pco-
plo ot that section of I-ako county
to know that tne company, wuicn
has strong financial support, has not
given up the project, but has again
placed engineers In tbe field to com
piste the survey. s
At the regular meeting of the
council last night Mayor Stilts, Coun
cilman Crlssler, Obenchaln, Ankeny
and Hanks wcro In attendance. The
meeting was of short duration, but
a number of matters that are of vit
al Importance to tho city came up
for consideration. Thn regular rou
tine business was transacted and the
council then gavo Its tlmo to tho con
sideration of some of tho problems
that confront the city.
Among the first to bo taken up
was the toi.s. aeration of a change
In tho ordtnanco establishing grades
In tho various parts of the city. An
amendment as proposed and passed
to the second reading by title only.
The object in tho change In the
grades Is o get all sidewalks that
are being built on tho same level.
The proposed amendment Is based
upon the report ot City Engineer
Don J. Zuinwalt."
Immediately upon disposal ot this
matter. Councilman Ankeny Intro
duced a poll tax ordinance, providing
for the collection ot an annual tax of
13 from every male Inhabitant In
tbe city between the age of 21 and
50 years, tbe money so collected to
be used for street and sewerage pur
poses. The ordlnanco further pro
vides that the tax for the year 1908
jlisll become due on September 1st
ot this year, and that It shall be the
duty ot tho city marshal to collect
the same. After some consideration
the ordlnanco was passed to second
reading by title only.
Briar A Anderson were given n
permit to build a barn In Canal addi
tion. Partld residing on Klamatb
avenue In tbe vicinity of where C.B.
Clendonntnj Is putting up his new
livery stablo appeared before the
council and complained that the
barn would bo a nulsanco In that
part ot tho city. Mr. Clendennlng
had not been granted a building per
mit, but he had seen most of the
councllmen and had received their
permission to go ahead with the
building if thero was no objection on
the part ot the property owners In
that vicinity. After considering tho
matter tlw council Instructed the city
marshal to servo notice on Mr. Clen
dennlng to stop work on the building
until after the next meeting of the
council.
Somo tlmo was given to the discus
sion of thj Jacobs building permit
and the matter ot refunding to tho
saloon min the unexpired license
fees, and also to the city limits ex

Hon. It. V. Gates appeared before
tho council and asked that tho Light

tho order of tho council asking for
the Installation ot hydrants In cer
tain parts of tbe city. He explained

quest and after some consideration
tho matter was referred to the Light
and Water committee, which will

tbe question.
Mosquitoes Kill Cattle.
Mospultoti rre killing cattle by the
score on ranches around High Is
lands. Texas. The pest Is tbo worst
ever known In this part of the Quit
ts reckon.. Oreat-etonds ot In
sects hover over pastures where cat
tle nro feeding They literally drain
the animals of their blood, causing
them to die from weakness.
One ranchman In Chambers coun
ty has lost 200 bead of cattle In the
last ten days. Some pastures are
strewn with the carcasses ot dead
cattle.
Bmudge fires are kept burning day
and night to keep tbe pest out ot
hoflass.
Take Oat license.
Up to the present time the county
clerk has Issued 17 hunters' licenses
tor tbt year 1908. It is evident from
this that n number of parties who are
hunting In this county are doing so
without paying the regular fee ot 11.
So far there has been no foreign li
cense Issued. The fee of Ueno la $10.
The season Is yet early and most ot
the licenses that have been Issued
were taken out during tho first tow
months of the year. '
