WORDS OCCUPY Time.
CouncI Spends Considerable Time
But Does Some Business
For The City,

All members of the council were
present when Mayor King called
that body to order Wednesday
evening
An ordinance giving the o. r. &
N. Company the right to lay and
maintain 2o52 feet of side track
was read the first and second times.
The franchise is perpetual one,
and governs Bradford street.
An ordinance to improve Leavitt
street, and another to improve
Ivanhoe street, passed first, second
and third readings. These are
published this week.
M. +. 10y withdrew his bid for
the improvement of Thompson,
Lively and Catlin streets-because
the engineer estimates were too
low, and he feared trouble in collect
ing for the work. The engineer
was ordered to prepare new esti-
mates and then the call for bids
will be republished.
A. h. Richardson, of Portland
asked If the city was willing to
give him franchise for a gas
plant. He was told that he should
prepare such an ordinance as he
desired and when that should be
presented to the council the feeling
of that body could be qnickly ascer-
| tanned.
A belief seemed to exist that the
committee appointed to revise the
city charter was composed of graft.
ers who were liable to hold up the
city. A motion was made that the
committee work without any
reimbursement was made and
seconded-but !, was killed by a
vote of FIVE to two. The idea of
pay for the months work had not
been entertained by any of the
committee-and the motion was be-
lieved by many TO have been I'm.
called for. As the matter now
stands there Is a strong probability
that the committee could secure
pay-if IL desired to put in a bill
for services rendered.
An ordinance was ordered drawn
by the city attorney for the i'm.
proving of Monteith street which
seems TO have been lost some time
ago IN the shuttle. This will be
presented at the next meeting of
the council.
The matter of the infringement, OF
the state law prohibiting minors
frequening billiard halls end bowl.
ing alleys was discussed-and the
attorney was ordered TO draw an
ordinance under which the city
police could act in a legal manner.
Adjourned to Tuesday evening,
March IS.

Round The 1. cd

Heretofore there has always beer
trouble for those people who liv,
between Northern Hill and ST,
Johns on the north track-becauss
Il has been impossible for them tt
ride home except by paying two
fares: one fare To Northern Hill and
one from that point TO their home.
This has been very unsatisfactory
and most people chose rather to
walk home.
:. {. Cook saw chance TO make
ten-strike, and opened correspond
ence with +. |. Fuller, of the rail
way. To him he stated the case
as IL was and showed the benefit To
be derived by transfers from North
ern Hill to points along the north
side OF the loop,
In response to this appeal Mr.
Cook received the following COM
munication from the railway Off
Gals
Replying to yours of February
20, regarding the establishment OF
transfer point at Northern Hill so
that people at 81. Johns or on the
south side of the loop can transfer
to points on the north side of the
loop, beg to say that we have
directed. that this matter be arran-
ged, and We presume it will be in
augurated as soon as the necessary
instructions are issued to the car
men"
Mr.. Cook made a very shrewd
move in the matter-he saw the
opportunity-and improved it.
