the control of our travelled highways. AL
though by city ordinance the officers alluded
to are under direction of, and are responsible
to the city council, they must in a measure,
exercise their own judgment in regard to the
work they have in hand. The consequences
are apparent in the present condition of our
streets. We do not wish to reflect upon our
Engineer or Commissioners. They have
done their work as well perhaps as any other
three men could do it; but it properly belongs
to one man. Should the city council decide
to make the change, it would be good time
to do so in connection with the proposed re-
