Every person driving by has feared accident. . ; , . , . ... -y The atreet is the inost heavily trav eled trank thoroughfare in the city. . i But the power i of remonstrance against improvement is as great where the need Is most as where the travel and the need of repair are leaat What Will be done? One Idoea not sympathlzs with prop erty owners who witi permit accidents rather than pay for repairs, but that is not! their attitude. They feel that they ahould not be tailed upon to pay t"2Ur? Bt of pairing paving that .the trafflo of the general public baa worn. .They probably deplore ac cidents Is much aa those who do not have to pay for repairs. . : Aeetdenta Are Invited. , .
