Some time ago a petition was presented
70 the Council praying the city 20 purchase
The square Of ground bounded by First,
Second, Dryades and Baronne streets, to be
converted into a public park or as we call
Ii, public square. The petition is signed
by many of the residents OF The Fourth Dis
trict. 1t was referred 20 the Mayor Since
the reference, Mr.. John i. Davies a prop
erty owner in the neighborhood, has laid
before Mayor Flanders a letter, in which
he gives his reasons against the proposed
purchase. He sets forth, in pretty plain
language, that that part OF the city is more
in need of drainage than public square, as
Iieve il is called) not far from the site sug
gested. And the writer OF the protest
further intimates that the gentlemen who
signed the petition did SO rather TO escape
the annoyance OF import unlty than tor the
purposc OF having the city burdened with
the cost and care OF new promenade
ground ID that particular place The fact
that few or none OF the signers live very
near The spot, lends an ar OF probability to
Mr Davies theory. /; IS a. any rate worthy
