Southern Pacific Tries
To Keep Its Track Clear

The Southern Pacific railroad com
pany is making paths ON etner side or
the track from here to Portland. Tho
road has been ballasted with crushed
rock and this with paths on either side
tends to keep pedestrians off the road
bed. People will persist in walking
the track, and the division superintend-
ents believe that by making paths at
the sides the toll of accidents will be
lessened. Before the track was bal
lasted with crushed rock the campany
was to much expense in keeping tho
grass from growing between the ties.
Stock would feed along the right of
way and the number killed reached in
to hundreds annually. Now with no
grass whatever ON the track, and paths
at either side the temptation of stock
to feed there is lessened and the old
time walking the ties" plan will be-
come obsolete

SUPPLY
OF MEAT CUT SHORT
City Is Well Fixed, However,
Owing to River Connection
with Food Sources

Portland, Ore, Aug. 30.-Ninety per
cent of Portland's meat supply for next
week was wiped out today when the
Oregon Washington Railroad and Navi-
cation company issued an order can
ceiling its Sunday stock train, which
brings nine tenths OF this city's beef,
mutton and pork from eastern Oregon,
Washington and Idaho.
The mutton and pork already in Port
land will last until early next week
There is not enough beef on hand in
the city to last much longer. Efforts
will be made, if the strike comes, to
bring cattle down the Columbia river
on boats. There are few boats ON the
river now, however, equipped for such
traffic.
Willamette valley towns which be-
lieved they would not be affected by
the strike on account of the Oregon
Electric bringing them supplies learned
today that the interurban line trainmen
would walk out with those of the steam
roads.
Many prospective travellers have can
celled reservations. Country newspa-
pers published warnings advising read
ers not to leave town if they expected
to get back. Ranehers rushed prepara-
tions to haul their foodstuffs to market
on motor trucks if the pinch comes.
A large portion Of the eastern Oregon
wheat crop is as yet unmoved. There is
no prospect of shipping it before the
| Threatened strike comes.
The Spokane, Portland & Seattle rail
way refused today to accept perishables
that cannot be delivered before Satur-
d.y night. This line accepted all other
/ freight under an unavoidable de-
layo proviso. The Great Northern
railway issued an embargo refusing to
acceut any freight or livestock for de-
] livery after Saturday. This order also
affected "all connecting lines" includ-
ing the Burlington.

to discuss minor details of the trans
action. City officials this afternoon
will also consider the question of ask
ing council to authorize a bond issue
of $4,000 to be applied toward the
purchase of the plant There is now
approximately $4,000 available in
the general fund of the municipal
plant to be applied toward the pur.

Last December the commission es-
tablished valuation of $174.155 for

was on June Is, last year. but the

provided since last June. the appraise-
ment being made by commission en-
gineers. These engineers determined
that $3S,736 should be added to the
purchase price az a fair valuation of
additions, and this report was accept
ed by the commission yesterday after
noon without change.
Mayor Robbins said today that he
hoped the city would be in actual pos
session of the L., III. and P. electric
plant by not later than March Is
1t is believed the city will be re-
quired to float a short term bond issue
to secure the $4,000 necessary to fl
nance the deal. Notwithstanding the
fact that City Attorney Bond still in
sists that the course pursued by coun.
ell in authorizing this sum to be OBJ

May Issue Bonds.
The fact that the banks have re

undoubtedly result in council author

is acceptable to the banks. The city

in this matter at their meeting this
