Several questions were discussed among them the locatiou of tel­ ephone poles on Bridge street, a drain from the High School propirity and allowing the rail­ road to move their depot, in order to put in the fill for theii new building. An ordinance was passed establishing street grades over the city and several bills were allowed. The Big Mill was present with Western man­ agers and attorney asking that their 40 acres at side and rear of grade school be taked from the city incorporate limits. They were backed by a small delega­ tion who spoke in favor of the proposition. The mill means much to Vernonia and Vernonia feels indebted to them. Mayor White is optimistic over the good the mill people will bring to our city, but tie is cautious ana looks ahead. It was the Mayor,8 sug­ gestion that the Council not rush the question, but talk a- whilo before’eutting the 40 from the limits, and he succeeded in inserting a clause that the mill keep up the sibewalk and their share of the road in front of their property, This the council agreed to. In a good speech on presenting their argument Mr. Schoplir of the Mill Co., made it plain that the mill intended to put their time to the mill busness alone; declaring that they did not intend to plat their site into a town, nor that they did not w.nt to build the great number o f hemes required if ary citizen or party would erect them; also saying they ould not enter the mercantile or business field. Harmony seems to exist; work is progressing, and now we feel the city will grow by leaps and bojnisand on Nov. 7, we believe we will vote unamious for water sewer light, power and a busi­ ness adminstration. Address Wanted Six thousand nine -hundred divorces in one court in Chicago in one year and the city news­ papers record as the important result that the Judge has collap­ sed from the strain. The collapse of a thousand judges isn't com­ parable to the collapse of six thousand nine hundred homi s and the lowering of the moral fibre of thirteen thousand eight hundred men and women, not to say a word about the children. Talk about happiness being the keystone of human development may be all right, but we dont get gold we can use till the ore is crushed and washed and the metal shot through the refi ing furnace. If ninety-five per cení of these trail love birds were made to see that a marrage lic­ ense is not a scrap of paper we we might produce u healthier and more self-reliant race.
