CITY council
PROCEEDINGS

Street improvement was the main
business at the Wednesday nights
council meeting and resulted in the
ordering West Hume street paved from
Washington street to the railroad
tracks and in taking preliminary
steps for improvement of the portion
of Second avenue damaged by slides
last winter. The council voted against
paving D street from Market to Ran
dali, numerous. protests being made
to this project. The street committee
was asked to investigate the advis-
ability of graveling the west end of
Heron street so the Federal mill
might have an outlet for its lumber
wagons.
The portion of Hume street ordered
paved is three blocks in length and
the project will cost about $1,000. No
protests we're made against this pro-
ject.
Efforts to stop the Second avenue
slide caused considerable discussion
and this resulted in the mayor, city
attorney and city engineer being in
structed to secure the permission of
the abutting property owners for the
city to put in drain bitches. After
this is done other necessary work
will be done to Offset the damage
done by the slides.
Water Supt. George Bowen report
ed house numbering here to have
been badly done and Mayor Phillips
advised an effort be made, probably
by the water department, to have
all homes in the city properly num-
bered. Where numbers have to be
changed charge of 25 cents will be
made.
The council instructed the water
superintendent to refuse to install
meters at any place other than those
of regular consumers of city water.
North Aberdeen in winter is sup
piled with water from the numer-
GUS springs that come out of the hill.
In the spring, however, North Aber-
deem residents need city water 1t
was not thought advisable to install
long pipe lines unless the city would
be assured that number tf resi-
dents of this section would become
constant users of city water.
| Neinist & Rodrick were awarded
the contract, at price of $4O0, for
painting both the Heron street and
North Aberdeen bridges.

CANNERIES SHOW
FALLING OFF FOR
SEASON OF 1916
Clam Pack OFF so Per
Cent; Salmon Just
Above Normal

The salmon and clam packing in.
dustries Of Grays Harbor have fallen
of this season. The depreciation in
the clam pack is estimated at so per
cent. due to the scarcity Of the clans.
The salmon. as figured now, is but
10000 cases against 10000 cases put
up last year. This, however, does
not mean that 1915 clam season was a
bad one. Last years was away above
normal. and this years is slightly
above normal.
There will be no salmon run OF
consequence before September. When
that takes place all Harbor canneries
will be operating to capacity, prob
ably.

LOGGING CAMPS

RUNNING AGAIN

All the logging camps of Grays
Harbor, closed during the Fourth OF
July celebrations here and in other
towns of the county, are running
again. Some may be little short
handed still on labor, as many log.
gers have fingered through this week
in Aberdeen, Hoquiam and elsewhere
resting up from the Fourth, but by
tomorrow night, in all probability, all
probability, all crews will have re-
ported for duty and next week will
see every camp running full blast.

FIGHT TO KEEP
BOAT SHIPMENT
OF BOOZE OUT

The Hoquiam police, despite the dis
couraging aspect Of the situation,
seem determined to put down the
practice of bringing liquor to Grays
Harbor on boats. The Aberdeen po-
lice, too, have been just as energetic.
The last case, however, comes from
Hoquiam in the raid on the steam
schooner Willamette, Sunday night.
The contention of ships captains and
stewards that they have full right to
carry any amount of stock is yet to
be fought out in the courts.
