WEIGH ROAD
HAS COMPLIED
WITH FRANCHISE
CLAIMS THAT THERE is ONLY
ONE CONDITION IN WHICH IT'S
FRANCHISE CAN BE FORFEIT
ED-FALURE TO BUILD TWO
MILES OF ROAD,

Contending that there was only
one condition upon which its fran
chise can be declared forfeited-its
failure to build two miles of road in
the city within six months after the
acceptance of the franchise-and
that this has been fulfilled, the Port
lnad Eugene & Eastern filed an an
swer in the circuit court yesterday
afternoon in the case brought against
1t by the city to have its franchise de-
clared forfeited.
The discOntlnuance of the service
to the fair grounds, says the COM
pany, was because of the breakage
of the crossing on the Southern Pa
ciflc track, and delay has occurred in
repairing 1t, as the plans have to be
approved by the Southern Pacific peo
pie. The fact that 1t failed to lay
6-inch rails on Center and Summer
streets, it maintains, is not a breach
of any of the terms of the franchise,
and neither is its failure to pave. 1t
is willing, however, to pave, 1t says,
just as soon as the material can be
obtained. The real reason for the
suit II is asserted, is that the coun-
Gil desires TO have a common user
clause put in the franchise. This, the
company says, 1t cannot do, as 1t is
under contract with the Southern Pa
ciiic to do its switching on Front
street.

FIRST NUMBER
OF 'iBLEACHERS"
is A HUMMER

A copy of the first number of "The
Bleachers," a sporting weekly, pub
lished at Portland, has reached this
office. James j. Richardson, the edi-
tor, is well known among the sport
ing fraternity of the Willamette val
ley His clever baseball dope, writ.
ten under the name of "Chimmie"
has given him high rank among sport
writers of the Pacific coast. Jimmie
also has been umpiring for the Val
ley league this summer, and proved
himself an exceptionally clever indi-
Gator man.
"The Bleachers' is a 16-page pub
lication, put up in weekly magazine
form. A good quality of paper is
used and the front cover cartoon is
designed by Miss Fay King, a popu-
lar theatrical cartoonist of Portland.
The headlines and makeup in gen.
eral both regards advertising and
reading matter is put up in neat and
attractive form. The new weekly al
ready shows a healthy advertising
patronage and is chuck full of inter
esting sporting news, handled in a
live style Richardson has a publi-
cation Of which he may we'll feel
proud and with "Chimmie" at the
helm, "The Bleachers" is bound to
make a "hit" with the sporting
world The new weekly shows what
hard work and close application to
details can do and the young news
paperman deserves credit for the
business-like appearance of his latest
offspring. Allegeart of Salem. is
given favorable comment among the
semi-pro baseballists. Incidentally. a
little more semi-pro news during the
baseball season would not be amiss.

attractive young men all Of whom
have been selected for their ability to
sing and dance as we'll as to be
pleasing of appearance. Miss No
body from Starland', which is said
to be one Of the best offerings ever
sent out of the Princess Theater,

breaking business for a year, will be
