The presence OF such a large az.
gregation OF colored ministers from
every section which have been gather.
ed together here at the conference of
the A. NJ, r. Church. assumes the ma.
ture of an object lesson to the more
shiftless brother OF the negro race.
These men, In the majority Of cases,
have laborOd arduously in an effort to
reform and elevate the lower element
OF their race, and II their advice was
needed there would b. need for fewer
fails and peuitentlAries. Education Is
the backbone Of virtue and character,
and until the negro decides 70 educate
himself he can look for and expect
but little, Those negroes who, through
high ambition, have become educated
and are trying to turn their race
from the downward road, deserve
credit. and the better element Of white
people are willing To assist them.

party who are opposed to Beckham

he be nominated for President. The

more to disrupt the Democratic party
in that State than all other Influences

Mayor also announced the following

Mrs Nj. Sue Adams was present and
made protest against the creating oi
new sewer district which would in.
clude her propaity, stating that there
was hnt one residence on the street,
and the sewer was not needed at this
time, aud would impose burden up
ON her.
The sewer committee reported tha
they lad consulted an attorney 10 re
gard TO the matter, and sthst the pro
visions of the charter would prohibi

nine to exclude any territory in th

portant for the reputation and well
fare OF the community that active
measures should be taken to put our
streets in presentable condition.
recommend that property owners
along Oak street be notified to remove
earth on south side of said street and
put down walks not more than IL
inches higher than the center of street
as now established. and that as soon
rs weather will permit work on State
sti eet be compelled and property
owners required to put their walks
down on grade. We will never have
streets wol hty OF the name as long as
the whims Of each property owner is
regsrded, the present condition is in
my opinion discreditable to any place
pretending to be populated by live,
up to date people. s de walks from
two to six feet higher than the streets
might do In mining camp which is
liable to te abandoned, but for
place like Hood River visited by
thousands from all parts of the coun-
try each year 1t is certainly poor
advertisement. Our street committee
has worked faithfully but | regret to
say that many of our citizens do not
seem to appreciate the necessity for
better streets. invite the co-opera-
tion of all In this work and think II
the ladies Of the town would form an
association such as exists In other
towns for the promotion OF clean
streets much good could be accomp-
lished. The citizen who dumps rub
5ish, a,hes, tree cuttings and other
filth In the streets certainly takes lit
tie pride In his home city or II be
has Q peculiar way of showing 1t. !
suggest that few fnss for people
who seem to have no civic pIide
might improve this almost intolerable
condition. ! recommend that all
street working involving an expendi-
tuie of n ore than $50 be hereafter let
by contract to the lowest bidder. l
believe 1t will be found that such
method will effect considerable saw
ing to the tax payers we have the
honor to represent here and their in-
terests alone should govern in such
matters.
