Watch Quality Many times cheapness is urged AS a reason for buying watches.

Be sure of the quality of yore purchase first. Good value watches has always been our policy and it has paid. In cheap watches, we have them from $1 up, according to case and movement. a However we tell you just what the quality of the watch is. A 17 jewel Elgin or Waltham in solid nickel case at $10 has been a great seller and you can't get better value for your money.

The higher grades are priced as low, quality considered, and to those thinking of sending away for a watch we say, come in and compare prices. J. O. Watts The up to date Jeweler and Optician Cor. 9th and Willamette Sts 670 without my approval, for the reason, 1st.

That the ordinance while purporting to create sprinkling districts, has been go amended as to leave the larger portion of business part of the city, which is the portion most in need of sprinkling, entirely out of dits provisions, 2nd. The ordinance directs that contracts be let at once for such sprinkling. This would have the tendency to encourage extravagence in bidding, and dn turn, place upon the property owners an increased. if not exorbitant burden, for that which is not a local improvement or direct benefit to the property assessed, but for a general benefit to the whole people, 3rd. That the law it proposes to enact is unconstitutional.

The sprinkling of to lay the opinion 19 not a local improvement conferring special benefit upon the abutting property, for which special assessments can be made. Not being local Improvement nor of direct benefit to the abutting property the enforcement of an assessment for such would be an unconstitutional taking of private property for public use without just compensation. 4th. Another and equally vital objection to the validity ef the ordinance Is that the ordinance was never legally passed. The ordinance was Introduced and passed the first reading at a regular meeting.

At a subsequent adjourned meeting the first page of the present bill was substituted for the first page of the original, the substituted page being then amended by striking out much of its substantial parts. Then as substituted for the original, after the amendment, Was read the second time, being the first reading as amended. It was then placed upon 8 third reading being the second reading of the ordinance as amended. and passthe objection of one of your members. The passage of the ordinance was in direct violation of the rule adopted by the council, that, "No ordinance shall hereafter be passed to a third reading on the same day of ita introduction, except on a suspension of this rule by the unanimous consent of the members present." This is a wise and necessary rule as a safeguard a- gainst too hasty legislation and should be strictly enforced.

The courts holding that the readings must all be of the some ordinance nnd that any change or alternation of substance made between the readings, destroys the effect of the first or previous reading. It la necessary therefore to a legal enactment that the ordinance. after amended, shall be read three times, which can be done on the same day only upon a suspension of. the rule above quoted by the unanimous consent of the members present. Under these circumstances, a due regard for my oath ag mavor makes it necessary for me to return this ordinance with this my veto, J.

D. MATLOCK, Mayor. The council then resolved Itself Into a committee of the whole to consider the question of water supply for the city of Eugene and the reporter and everyone else except the actual memberg of council were courteously naked to retire.
