Esplanade Crossing

Owing to the unpleasant nature of

Councilman O. W. White has solicit
ed the good offices of the council to
havo tho placo fixed. A few days
ago a couple of oil wagons met sud

passage way, and the result waa that
both were tipped over. A number of
autos aad other vehicles have come
to grief at tho same place.
There la not room enough for two
teams to pass one another at the
crossing, neither can they see the
crossing plainly from either the apr
proaeh above or the one below the

The result Is that teams, whether
they drive fast or slowly, are likely to
