LET JUSTICE RE DONE.

Nuw, that the petitions AZ" In 'ir.
culaiion requesting the councii to
call an election to extead the city
limits, II IL worth while that the tax
payers OF the city should look at the
facts as they exist. without preju-
dice.
We do not thing there can be any
doubt that the question OF extending
the city limits must be submitted to
the voters Of the present city and to
the territory proposed to be annexed.
and that . separate vote must be
taken. Any attempt by the voters Of
the city to force additional territory
into the corporate limits. without
giving the tax payers Of the new ter
ritory an opportunity to express their
preferences In the matter would be
un-Amcrican, unreasonable and un-
Just. and We do not believe that such
a proposition Is sound In Law or In
equity. and could not be sustained
by any court.
Almost Immediately upon the
broaching OF the question by the city
council. the citisens and tax payers
OF the territory proposed for anncxa-
tion. expressed themselves almost un-
animousiy against annexation. and
notified the council that they would
vote against such . proposition. That
being the case. what possible advan-
tage could be gained by IN election?
The city treasury Is empty. and the
city is heavily In debt. An election
would cost money and apparently In
this case. would be useless expendi-
ture. ~ the result Is already known.
Why. therefore. 20 to the trouble and
expense and excitement incident TO
an election! No one can deny that
the financial condition Of the city In
unfortunate. but that is hardly q rea-
son for attempting to force addition
al. and much Of II unimproved. ter
ritory into the city for The purpose
Of borrowing TO pay the city's debts
and make improvements. Why should
the property owners In the territory
adjoining the city be asked TO have !
their property bonded for the pur-
pose Of paying the old city's debts? !
What IL offered or TO be offered In
exchange for this incumbrance upon |
their property? No citizen Of Klam-
ath Falls would think Of asking his
neiEhbors to help him pay his debts
or allow him to mortgage their prop
erty to raise money for his benefit.
No more can the city Of Klamath
Falls. In justice. ask the outlying
territory TO assume part Of its In
debtedness.

A NEW BRICK BL OCK
S. |. Wineman Will treCt q Fine New
Business Block

s. L. Wineman is having the plans
drawn for a fine new business block
which he contemplates having built
during the coming summer. The
structure Is to be of brick and will
be S0x140 feet, two stories high.
There will be a frontage Of 80 feet
on Kelly avenue and Is feet on Fifth
street thus filling In the space south
and east of his building now occupied
by White & Henderson's clothing
store.
This will be a great Improvement
for Devils Lake as it will not only
give us a fine new business block, but
will at the same time rid this section
of several unsightly frame buildings
It is expected that the work will
be commenced as soon as possible
this spring and pushed to completion
as soon as practicable.
