nRINTING of an ordinance grant

DRINTING of an ordinance grant
Il ing George II. Tilden of Seat
tie a franchise to build and operate
an electrical system in Aberdeen,
was ordered Wednesday night by the
city council. This does not mean,
bv any means. that Tilden will get
his franchise; or that he will stand
any more show for getting it than
on the occasion of his application
several months ago. As Councilman
Bowes. who made the motion, sec
onded by Empey, to pass the ordi-
nance through first and second read
ings, explained, it was simply to
facilitate the study and discussion of
the application. Tilden pays for the
publication in the official paper. He
seeks a 50-year franchise and offers
light at a scale running from 8 cents
per kilowatt hour down to l 2-3 cents.
However, if the council showed
some lukewarmness toward the Tild-
en- application, there was more of
heartiness in it's response to an ap-
peal from a fellow townsman, or
fellow town institution: the Donovan
Lumber company. Through Mayor
Phillips, the company declared that
it would be compelled to suspend op-
erations because of the fact that it
had no room to store lumber Its
dock is filled to capacity, all the lum-
Der is sold, but there are no ships
whereOn to transport it. The COM
pany asked permission to use the
south side of Scott street, for one
block, for an indefinite period. Per-

4 organizations which, in past
years, has escaped taxation will be
taxed next year according to the de-
cision arrived at by County Assessor
missioners. This projected action of
the county board of equalization, of
course, will not affect church prop
erty which under the law is exempt,
but only realty belonging to church
organizations, that was not intended
by the law for exemption.
This matter seems to have been
about the most important to come up
before the commissioners, in their
sitting last Monday as a board of
equalization. A few assessments
which obviously were errors, were or
dered stricken from the rolls; but no
changes were made in valuations ex-
cept such as were due to clerical
errors.
With the ordering of a warrant
drawn for payment of $50 to William
Silvo, for right of way in connection
with the South Arbor road, the COM
missioners hoped that the troubles
over the Gustafson property were at
last settled.
Application from the city of Abb
erdeen for permission to erect a

road from city limits to the Wishkah
Falls, to be used in work on the Wish
kah water project, was granted.
