call aloud for improvement. Accord
ing to the laws, the owners Of
property on each side of public street
are liable for one-third Of the cost of paw
ing, the city paying the other third. If
the Carrollton Railroad Company claims
to be the owner Of the strip Of land in
question, then is it properly assessable for
the expenses Of repairs on each side Of the
roadway. Whether the company shall
deem the empty title Of ownership Of
public highway to be sufficient eompen-
sation fos the burden Of taxation. is a
question for it to decide.
