WON'T STAND
FOR N. P. CINcH

A lively controversy Is promised
in committee Of the whole next
Tuesday night when the grade
separation ordinance of the North
ern Pacific is brought up for dis
cussion. The present bone of con-
tention is section -, In which in
the ordinance the company would
have the city stand all the ex-
pense of suits for damages which
might be brought and won by ad-
jacent property owners. Regard
ing this, Mayor Moore this after
noon said that the ordinance would
not be passed so long as 1t contain
ed such section.
An ordinance granting a right of
way through the city to the Port
land 4 Seattle was also introduced
into the council last night. The
line will follow along the present
Northern Pacific right of way
through the greater portion Of the
city and will be Independent of
the Northern Pacific after 1t pass
es Oak st. to the west. Here 1t
gradually raises and passes over

be necessary for petitioners for
water mains to change the form OF
their petitions in order to conform
to the old stipulation that consum
ers shall guarantee IL per cent of
the expense Of the work.
The unit system has been found
too cumbersome to be practical and
1t also shuts out opportunity for
doing the work by day labor. For
this reason the federal unions, rep
resented by Thomas Maloney, were
actively interested in the action
last night. Thomas nearly went
through the roof when the motion
lost, but got busy Immediately and
emerged triumphant.
Dalke explained that revival of
the old system would furnish water
to hundreds of residents now with
out 1t and would also be an incen-
tive to a renewal of building, which
had been delayed by uncertainty
of securing water connections.
But for lack of sufficient equip
ment 200 men could be put to work
shortly on the water extensions as
the board is flooded with applica-
tons for water.
Last nights action was rein
forced by petition from organized
labor asking that water mains be
laid by day labor and residents
favored with employment.

TEARS HIDE OFF FULTON

PORTLAND, Jan. 29-Francis
J. Heney made good his declaration
that he would show the people of
Oregon why he did not think they
should reflect u. S. Sen. Fulton in
a sensational speech which bristled
with charges and affidavits to back
them at the First Congregational
church last night. Fourteen hun
dred people heard the speech AS
many more were denied admit
lance.
The address was over two hours
long. In 1t Heney charged Fulton
with attempting to bride State Rep
resentative j. S. Smith, of Linn
county, in 1897 with a payment OF
$4,000 in cash to 90 into the legis-
lature and break the deadlock in
the senatorial election by declar-
ing for Mitchell.
He produced affidavits from
Smith, Gov. Chamberlain and 9th.
ers, who declared that 81 500 of this
money was paid Smith and that
when Smith refused to do as he
had said he would Fulton threaten
ed him with violence.
In Smiths affidavit he asserted
that the late Sen. Mitchell told him

TAKES HIS Ak TO THE PRICE
FIXED AFTER FUEL DEAL.
ERS HAD REFUSED TO BUY
HIS STOCK IN ORDER TO
NURSE MARKET.

Spokane wood dealers. who by
reason of a "gentlemanly under
standing" have been patiently wait
ing until winter weather should ex-
haust the fuel stocks laid in last
fall, for the purpose OF maintaining
about the same scale of prices paid
when the fuel famine was on,
have encountered something in the
nature of a jar.
Some time ago o. M. Johnson,
E27 Main av,, had wood he wanted
to sell. He went to the wood deal
ers and got the assurance that they
needed no wood and wouldn't buy
it. There was more wood on hand
already than they approved of.
Consequently Mr.. Johnson went
into the wood business or his own
account. He whacked 81 or so off
the price TO begin with. Then the
dealers were willing, even anxious,
to buy his stock. They appeared
to need it, Nothing doing with
Johnson. He is delivering fir and
tamarack for 81 per cord, with vel
low pine a half dollar cheaper.
Furthermore, he alleges that he
will reduce still lower If his prices
are met. He's here to sell wood,
he says, which marks departure
In the wood business as at present
