THE CONDITION or The STREETs.-Mr EdN0r O.
Ia The Tribune of Wednesday your scer Of New ork
has given truthful Of the shameful condition
of the streets but he does really point out
edy The very fact that large number Of the streets
are not cleaned at all while the Contractors getting
regularly paid for cleaning them shows that the Alder
men either neglect their duty, or connye At the impo
son The question then Is, are the Aldermen respon-
sblc to any one think not and our only remedy
appears 10 be the ballot box To effect our purpose
party lines should be temporarily abolished, aud we
sholld for sound business men who are no polii
ciaus by trade and above trucking 10 contractors
because of their political influence
The Steers argument that we have ordinances
enough keep the streets CLEAN and free from Obsiruc
tons-whch desirable ends can be easily and thorough
y accomplished looks very well IN print but let
how tits in practice
Case Last Spring the writer OF this made fourteen
formal complaints to the Corporation Attorney against
= butcher who kept meat shop IN City Hallplsce
without license. and obstructed the sidewalk IN a
manner which annoyed all the decent residents of the
entire block On making the eleventh complaint, the
Attorney said that unless the nuisance was aheied At
once he would impose nne, though the Alderman Of
the sixth Ward had requested him not 30 do 50 AMER
the fourteenth complain, the butcher was let on on
paying twenty shiDgs aud clearing the walk lntNo
three weeks he again displaying hls meats out
the walk and continues 10 do 60 ia defiance Of The
ordinance, 10 this day, unmolestcd.
CsselL Five weeks ago petition signed by the oc
cupants OF all the houses IN SSthst between First sven
aud Avenue A. presented TO the Board OF Alder
man. representing the bad condition OF the street
which the Contractor who bulk the had left IN
terspersai with holes and gullies Ia the pavement
also that the street had no, been cleaned since the
of August last This petition was referred % Alder
msu Croius 10 report thereon. No notice hss been
akcn of thus tar nor has the street been cleaned dur
/ ing the hVc wccks-thoush the Contractor mas been
regularly paid on certificate signed by Alderman Gro
/ lgs himself which may be seen At the Controllers OF

/ This being in the sixth Ward the owners sni occu
pants have given up in despair sitter trying faithfully
June last 10 get single cleansing u then
street They are now making preparations T. have the
immense beds OF mud carried on BY private subscrip
/ ton smong themselves
These incidents which have come under the
writers observation, and which 10 show fully
that there City Ordinances which prvsie ciii-
can % be enforced BY the mos, indus
uious and QerseveIiug efOfts ~
Come On, friends Descend % particulars, ana a.
