This question is the most vital one
Ijefore the city at the present time.
The whole existence of St. Johns
flejKiiuls on properly fostering her
industries. To this end every en
ergy should be bent. Without
these Indtirsries the city would cut
a poor figure as a place of any im-
twrtance. Wo might have block
after block of fine stores, fine grad
ed ami graveled streets iu the resi
dence and mercantile districts but
without the pay roll, the tin bucket
brigade, the city would le ns naught,
other than n desirable place to
live. If we are to realize our boast
ed Industrial importance, our first
and greatest care must lie the mills
and factories; their convenience and
necessities must le studied. As
things now exist, the general util
ities necessary to develop and build
up these industries seems to have
been lost sight of. Get them to lo
cate has hitherto been the main ob
ject, to afford them opMituuity to
projicrly otierutu lias lieen woefully
and shamefully neglected, Shall ft
continue? If it does, It will be 11

incuts, such as stteets and dock fa
cilities, that already discontent pre
vails, mid 11 couple of iiiiM)ttunt in
dustries threaten to get out unless
something nlong these Hues Is done
at once. They ain't be blamed,
either. Take heed, fellow citizens,
niid don't let this matter go on week
in and week out without action.
What lias hitherto been lacking,
authority, is now supplied full mid
complete. The city council Is en
dowed with all the owcr necessary,
mid Inactivity Is cettaluly Inexcusable.
