of the interests of the city for oil future time
in view Of some present Temporary advantage
OF obstacle.
| And il the interests OF the city are worth
conserving at all, let them remember, 1t -
because the population and business ct the
city, and the importance Of the levee, asd
the value Of franchises in the city and vic'ui>
ty, will be tenfold greater in few years TO
come, than they are now.

cons,rains us to hold on At this point for fur
Their developments.
