UhpUndlng the -fact that Eaat I Stark, betweenPnfon avemia" a?ialhr) river, was improves laat year with new plank, and l.a now In perfect condition, except where the fill at Union avenue cruabed down th tree tie,-which ahould have been put In order-long ago, but for aorae reaann haa . been left In Ite preaent dilapidated condition until the present time. ' wanted XydmnUe rtU. ' '.' . "Nearly all the property owner' from L'nlon avenue to the river were anxloua to -'make a hydraulic fill, not only In the atreet but alao on all th land owned by them, and In order to get tbla done they aecured more 'than one third of the property owners between Union avenue and Eaat Seventh, atreet, and alao more than one third of the property owners between' Union avenue and Water street to lgn a petition separating . th - Improvement, eo . that the eaat end of the atreet could be filled at once with a dirt fill and then allew sufficient-time-for the West and to- secure the dredge to fill . the ' weat end up to basement grade. If not' to atreet grade. Now, instead of trying to delay any Improvement. w were IraKy-lWkttil'-tnat rfte-mtnTrveTnenrj d maa in an Intelligent manner. Some of us have Just erected' new build ings on this land, and we do not want to have our buildings ruined by a, dirt fill, the aame aa waa, done on Union and Orand avenuea. This is one reason we had for making the hydraulic fill first Soma of the Eaat. Side gentlemen seem to think that we were alraply do ing this to delay matters or to get the Improvement In such shape that it could b:remontmd"Baa!nir"ana-Toaiia this suspicion the property owners' have agreed to guarantee la writing, ,nd If Decease nr." "to put a bond that the two improvementa will not be - remonstrated against. This ought to satisfy any fair moum person. - t Sfo JTeeoV of Suspicion. Notwithstanding this proposed auar- antee, soma of the gentlemen stUl in- um we .i. noi acting in gooa faith. When people offer to put mat ters In such ahape that they cannot positively be auaplcloned, we think It Is time for suspicion to cease. we commend the Eaat Bide business men for their energy and seal -which they display in having their' streets Improved, but they should, remember that they should not require' us to Im prove h street every year, aa they are Baking to be done between Union ave nue and the river. Notwithstanding we aia not tnma tms was right, we oonsented to bear It and do as they desired, but we want to do it in a manner that would be permanent and benefit not only . the street but the lproperty as-well and make a perma nent, eoUd foundation for ,a street so that If a dirt fill were put In after the baeeraent level waa reached bv the hv. draullc fill. It. would do no damage to th buildings, and would also Improve all the property aa well ae the, street "W cannot understand how' "anyone could act more fairly than we have done la this matter. We cannot see the grounds for suspicion which these gentlemen, seem to entertain toward us, and what' we nave done "cannot help but allay 'the suspicion-of any reason- aois person. . ' Vo SUasonfor Xaate. , ,; "It the atreet from Union avenue to : the river were In bad condition and not in ahape to b used we Could readily un derstand why It would be neceaaary to hurry this Improvement at once and have the dirt flU made, but as if is In perfect condition w see reason-why we should not have a reasonable time to make a hydraulic fill first. This has been the unanimous opinion, with one bar .txcegtioiu-pt all ho property: owners on this end of the street,' eo far I aa I can learn, and, if I understand the case, the gentleman who claimed to have property-in thla section Is only acting ave aa agent for soma eastern parties. W want It understood now and forever that we are not opposing mis improvement; mat we want it bad as any on, but w want to do It In aa Intelligent manner, and we have arranged the matter In such a way aa to allow the east end of the street to be rilled as quickly ss the people want It done, ' and -aak that ours be delayed until such time ss we can get the dredge, we repeat again that we would not ask this If the street bad not been Improved last year.
