CID aIe just tEeMOflHS On Inc Dllnk OF eter-
pity.
CLEAN up.-Nobody is to blame because
a large amount Of dirt accumulates in the
streets and alleys, and around the stables i'm
the winter time, for every thing is so frozen
up that it is almost impossible to clcan up
and clear away at that season OF the year.
But the time has now come when it can be
done, and because it can be, it ought to be
done. Every individual is interested in
keeping the city clean. but it is the more
immediate duty Of each person to clear
away around his own premises. II indi-
viduals fail to do their duty in this respect
the City Council must not neglect theirs.
LET IT BE DONE AT oNCE.-Two or three
weeks ago we mentioned the importance Of
having the grading on Bush Street, between
Maine and Third, finished up. The frost
IS now all OUT Of the ground. and there is no
better time to put that street in order than
the present." 1t is hardly fair tor the few
that have done their part, to let the others
off now, nor is it wise to subject the public
to the Inconvenience of climbing that hill
with loaded teams when it mi ght be graded
down to an easy grade, by calling upon the
lot owners TO do their duty. We hope the
City Council will take prompt and dec ided
measures to have that street graded at
once.
ScHooLs.-Thc public schools commenc.
cd last N onday. We have not been able
to ASCERTAIN the number in attendance but
have no doubt it was fully as great as the
average at this season. The new school
board seem to take hold promptly and just
as though they were acquainted with their
duties. We congratulate the patrons of
the public schools that the Trustees have
procured the services Of such experienced
and accomplished teachers as Miss. nens
more and Miss Webster For want Of a
new School House, the Trusteesh ave rent
cd the Engine House, in which to keep the
Eastern School AMI more pleasant an
healthy selection could not have been made
The room is fourteen feet above the ground
we'll flushed off, and we'll ventilated.
ME;sRi. Sheldon & Hol sman had in store
when the first boat arrived this Spring. one
hundred and one thousand bushels Of wheat
Won! that do for one firm ?
SETTLED UP.-We have been informed
that all the Law Suits between J. Law Their
and n. V. Bennett which occasioned so much
interest in the two last terms Of Court,
have been amacahly settled. Also the for
closure suit, VIM. Langworthy against Jacob
Bennett, which has now been in court near
ly three years has been settled. A little re
Election probably cooled warm blood on both
sides.
FAsMING.-Wc notice with pleasure, that
the farmers are at work with will, getting
better price, there can scarcely be Doubt
during the next year than during the past,
and the farmers Of Goodhue vii be on hand
with their full quota.
AIN TAKES.- Every tenement in the
place is occupied, and still the cry is for
more room. We notice in several Of our
Exchanges tibet the same state Of things en-
list i'll other. parts Of the state, especially in
the cities and larger towns. Some are dis
posed to regard i, as an indication 0: large
immigration, and in some localities it may
be so. To a certain extent the great de-
mand for houses in this place may be &C.
counted for on that ground !; but to large
extent it is owing to the late Indian trouble
on our frontier driving off the settlers, who
seek refuge in, the cities.
" RoADs.-Elec,ion is over, and there is no
longer any uncertainty as to whose is the
responsibility. Let every officer do his du-
ty promptly. As may always be expected
in the spring of the year, the roads, in m ANY
places are in bad condition, and mus.
speedily be repaired or travel will take
another direction This kind of work can
not: be attended to TOO quickly sas@@ st.''
