CITY IMPROVEMENT.-Ih comprehensive
the direction Of Capt. Donald Allen, City En-
gineer. is what should have been done long a.
CO. There has been enough money frittered
away, since the war, i'll patch work, to have
perfected the permanent Improvement OF any
one of our leading thoroughfares. The chang
es now going OIL, constitute part of judi
cions system, and we trust that the council
will persist in this intelligent understanding OF
the wants of the city, as long as they can com
mand the means. Let the present generation
Of adults do the work. and leave to posterity
the privilege and luxury Of paying for it
We have no partiality for assuming the bllrd=
ems Of those who may come after us. s'Suffi=
cient unto the day is the evil thereof Our
successors will get the benefits of the inn
provemehts and they should pay for them.--
We want nerve and push in the manage
ment Of city afflirs, to make the public eon-
veuiences and appearances correspond with
the reputation we enjoy. Every dollar pru-
IDENTIFY and intellgently expended ON our
streets, and i'll perfeeting cur water works and
fire departments that much added to tho vai=
lie Of the real estate, where the bulk OF the tax
has to be laid. 50 there Is reciprocity in the
general plan and its economic operation

the city. You are doing your heads great
deal Of credit. in the work you are SO wisely
