contract furnish rock for the streets
of the city OF Portland after the
former has ceased to exist. II il
could be so, could the contractor
discriminate between any particu-
lar sections of Portland ? Certainly
not. Ratio and proportion would
not permit Il. II the streets of the
city of St. Johns also means the
streets of the city OF Portland, one
portion of that city has as much
right to the same price as another,
In that event after annexation Mr.,
Nease would be required TO furnish
rock for the entire city at IS cents
per yard, and he would have no
chance TO make his profit by selling
rock TO Portland contractors, as is
now the case. The fact OF the
matter is that Mr.. Nease would be
violating no provision of his con
tract after annexation II he refused
to furnish rock at less than ~. so
per yard, because he is permitted to
charge as much as he pleases for
rock for use on the streets of Port
land. After annexation, of course,
all our streets will be streets OF
Portland. Another point; The
city of St, Johns, by virtue OF its
contract with Mr.. Nease, receives
Ioc per yard for all rock sold for
other purposes than for its streets,
and our city is now receiving ten
cents for every yard of this rock
that is being placed on Portland
streets. Therefore, Mr.. Nease can
and must refuse, after annexation,
to furnish rock for our streets at a
less price than he charges for other
streets of Portland, because il would
be discrimination aud "class legis.
lation." But Mr.. Nease. can hold
his contract, unless the city OF
Portland repudiates all the con-
tracts ST. Johns has entered into.
He stands ready to supply rock for
our city streets at IS cents, but
when they become streets of Port
land all he has to do to hold the
quarry aud utilities is to pay into |
The CITY treasury ten cents for every |
gard of rock taken out, and he can
,harge for the product as much as !

gas man II you doubt the veracity
of this. Therefore, is there man
among us with faith SO sublime as
to expect a corporation will furnish
the same quality OF gas at a 20 pei
cent cutl If there is we pity the
poor deluded, benighted soul,
Cheaper insurance: There is no
assurance of this. and il is ever
based on FIRE protection, class OF
structure and environments. Our
insurance is less than half what il
was when we occupied a wooden
building with our plant.
As to the free ferry proposition,
Mr.. HurlbeTt knows as we'll as any
one else that we can get free ferry
any time we desire to vote bonds
for securing one. This we could
not do II we were annexed to Port
land, because the entire city would
have to vote upon il, and it would
not be deemed necessity by many
at this time. Portland wants that
trade from the Tualatin valley Just
as badly as we do. The very rea-
son we want free ferry is the very
reason Portland does not want us
to have il.
In conclusion let us say that no
man is so blind as he who will not
see. We have shown aud conclu.
sively proven that this city will
suffer a distinct loss by annexation
on the rock proposition. Even the
city attorney and the aldermen are
at loss to know how the low price
of this necessity may be retained to
this section after annexation. Mr..
Hurlbert's gains" are all untena-
BILE, chimerical and simply cannot
be sustained. We are willing To
present the case before three repu-
table lawyers, and even permit Mr..
Hurlbert to be one of the three, and
yet we would win the case. With
the above facts before him and
if he cares anything for his veracity,
we will find Mr.. Hurlbert fighting
henceforth.

Sisters were discovered in waiting,
bearing one OF those delicions lunch
es the Knights know and love so
well. This was surprise No 2.
Then, after the feed, stimulated by
the delicious refreshments furnished

1t was a happy occasion and all the
laggard Knights of this lodge who

be wishing they had FURNISHED their

It's all right this time but they
should not let it occur again.
