for tbeir expense and bard labor in

to show the same courtesies and ac­

town, os designated in the new
charter, has very properly teen ex­
tended and made to em body the
several new additions to tbe city,
the incorporate lines having been
straightened out as far as possible,
making a very symmetrical and al­
most square plat o f the city, am ple
provisions having beeu made herein
for tbe city’s growth and expansion
for the next few years and tbe ex­
tension of municipal improvements
to these new additions without the
necessity o f revising the charter or
ordinances admitting these new ad­
ditions from time to time by the
required act of the county court or
the state legislature. It is to be
hoped that onr citizens will prove
themselves progressive, p u b l i c

approve tbe excelleut new charter
