HLEGALITY or THE STREET OPENING
BOARD.

Some of our citizens, becoming restlve under
the oppressive system Of seizure OF private property In
this city prsctced under the assumption of public bene
lit In the process OF what is called "streetopehihg'
have embodied their views of the nlegantes OF inc
practice In a petition to the New-York Legislature IL
appears from this document that by the absolute u-
checked authority Of small body of menone of whom
only the Mayor is chosen by the electors OF the cy
the other six being appointed by bim-ealed the Boaru
of Street Openings the private owners OF property are
diyesed of their titles and compelled TO accept lor
their damages whatever may be the a"aiu
Of the Commissioners appointed. The petitioners
quote the laws, commencing with statute Oh
early colonial times 10 show the right of any prlVaIs
owner Of property who cannot come " an asreenem
with the city, to the amount Of damage sus'aheu W
trial of the case by jury This security ora jury TRIAL
continued during period OF l6 years In 1917 statute
placed the assessment of damages i'll the hands OF three
Commissioners appointed by the state This eventually
proving unsatisfactory in 1889 the appointment OF the
three Commissioners was dvded-the Supreme Court OF
the State appointing the Mayor and Common Coun-
ell another, and the owners interested the third. In
practice this method of procedure proved liable to va
rOus forms Of abuse and extravaganza and the mod-
cations of frequent legislation failed to protect our et
and couneract the evils consequent upon s!s-
tenn that is wrong in itself.
But the existing law that Of 1870, has abolished even
the little chance for fair dealing that remained by
the Board of Street Openings have all the power ana
authority to laying out opening, widening straghen
ing extending altering, and closing streets or avenues
south of Fourteenth-st . whenever lhey
may it for the public interest so to do" BY H. the
Supreme Court OF the First District only appoints all
three Commissioners who finally empowered 10 assess
10 an extent practically unlimited all such parties per
sons lands and tenements they may deem to be pehe
flied" The petition recites some evident arguments
showing the unconstitutionaty Of ensctments which,
depriving an owner of his property refuse him inc
right of Jury trial to determine his damage The paipa
bic wrongs that are inflicted under the present law are
already matter of public scandal, requiring no afgu-
mont for demonstration.
