PURPOSE OF ELECTION.

In response to numerous requests,
the observer prints today an outline
or the city ordinance authorizing a
speclal election to be held in Dallas
on September 10. at which time the
voters VIII be asked to amend the
charter no an to give the council power
20 order the permanent Improvement
Of all bitches, mill races and other
artificial waterways In the city, where
the same run through, over, across or
into any public street or highway.
Az those persons familiar with local
conditions are aware, the object OF
such an amendment is to fix and deter
mine for all time the respective rights
and responsibilities OF the city and the
owners In the maintenance and repair
OF the Dallas mill race. This question
has been a. disputed one in Dallas for
the last 80 years and It Is hoped by the
result Of the coming election to settle
the controversy permanently.
As nearly as the Observer has ever
been able to ascertain, the only per-
mission from the city to the mill COM
pany TO maintain and operate this
ditch Is found In a right-of-way decd
recorded some 40 years ago, in which
the city granted to one John Waymire
the right to dig and maintain a water
ditch within the city limits for the pur-
pose Of furnishing power for the oper-
alton OF a grist mill. As we under
stand IL, nothing is said in this deed
as to who shall be responsible for the
keeping OF this ditch In repair. or
for conhning the water In such a man
ner as TO not interfere with the rights
Of private property. public travel or
permanent street Improvement The
question Is one that has puzzled every
council for the last 20 years and has
seriously hampered the Improvement
Of those streets through which the
mill race flows.
To definitely place the responsible
ity for the safe-keeplng and Improve
ment OF the race upon the owners OF
the property Is. as this paper under
stands IL. the object OF the election
to be held IN September.

DRIVER NOT BLAMED
Thomas Magers Exonerated BY Coron-
erss Jury in Portland

il appears that the boy was riding on
the rear Of a transfer wagon which
was going south on East Sixth street
The automobile was going west on
East Morrison street and the automo-
bile was brought to almost a stop to
allow the wagon to pass.
When only few feet from the ma
chine, the boy suddenly jumped from
Z the wagon squarely in front Of the au-
I tonobiIe. The driver did not have time
I to stop his car but made an effort to
/ swing to one side of him and almost
succeeded. However. the rear wheel OF
the machine caught the boy and passed
[ over his body. Mayors brought the ma
chine to a stop and with Robert
I Sprague, the only other occupant OF
Z the car, rushed back to the injured
boys assistance. He was hurried to the
office of Dr. Ravenna Spurrier. On dis
covering that the child was dangerous
I ly hurt, DR.. Spurrier had him removed
TO St Vincent's Hospital, where he
/ died at 3 o'clock.
