To the Mayor and City Council,
Ocntlomon:
"So tho pooplo may know," per
mit mo to call your attention to an

on tlio editorial piiko of n newspaper
nubllBlicd In Maishllold known ns

of InstnllltiK a plant for furnlshliiB

ing approximately flvo blocks

And first, let mo assure you thnt
unless you shall feol satisfied that
tho bonoflf to tho city would bo
greater than any Injury which might
follow (If any such Injury Is vobbI
blo) tho grunting of tho privilege, 1
would profer that you rofusu to
grant tho rights asked,
If, on tho other linndK aftor you
hnvo fullv considered the quostlon.
you feel that tho city would bo bene
fitted and tho danger ironi nres re

cured by the Installation or ono

Ing n sepnrnto furiiaco in ouch build

I nm rorced to the conclusion that

City Council, After Much Dis
cussion, Decides Not to
Change Plans.
The South Fourth street nnd race
track question came up beforo tho
city council In severnl different
phases last evening and a few rather
warm tilts resulted from tho discus
sion of It. Ilowover, nfter tho dis
cussion the council decided to ndhoro
to Its original order for Improving
the street through to Coal Hank In
let. Coupled closely with It was tho
Johnson avenue matter, somo of tho
residents there petitioning for a
change In tho grade as originally es
tablished by the city engineer. To
mnko the change, would cause a
cluing In tho Fourth street project,
because n two root deeper cut would
have to be mndo on Fourth street.
Tho Fourth street matter was
brought up by u petition from F. P.
Norton, asking that tho Improvement
of the- Btreot bo from Elrod to Kruno
only. The petition was signed by

thnt tho only thing thnt could bo

Norton snld thnt tho petitioners did
not wnnt to protest, that thoy wanted
tho streot Improved whero It would
do any ono any good nnd consequent
ly had so petitioned. Mr. Haines de
clared that anyway thero wasn't n
majority of tho property represented
and Norton claimed otherwise.
C. F. McKnlght snld that ho had
not protested becaiiBo It wasn't time
and thoy did not want to, Ho said
tho Southern Pnclflc owned both
sides of the streot between Kruso

wouldn't benefit anyone to hnvo It
opened now and Just ns Boon as It
would, tho company would open It.
Chns. Lowroy, E. L. Plorco, Jus.

themselves In favor of opening it
through to Coal Rank Inlot. Geo.
Rnlnes said thnt If It wasn't opened
now, tho people would lose their right
nnd tho Southern Pnclflc could tnko
Its own sweet tlmo to open It In.
Supt. W. F. Miller said that tho
Southern Pnclflc would hnvo the
street opened and improved Just ns

Mayor Straw bad been showing
signs of Irritation during tho discus
