ENLARGISG OUR CRY LIMITs.-We have to
suggest to our citizens the proprieLy of ex-
tending our corporation lines SO as to include
a portion of the suburbs which are becoming
deusely populated, and which are as much
benefited by city improvements as it they
lived within the corporate limits. There is a
population OF near five hundred south of the
city who ought to pay city taxes as much as
those within the ely. Their property is in
creased in value in the same proportion. and
they have the same protection from fire a
those who pay city taxes, aud they should
assist in defraying all city expenses. The line
should be extended east SO as TO include the
Starr and tie ROBBERS farm. The third and
fourth wards should be divided. and another
ward male south of the city. This should
be done previous To the next city election,
and we throw out the suggestion for thecon-
sideration Of our citizens.
