nEADLErTER oRDIEANOEs.

r. ;nrn;tv with which the streets and
banouettes are DISTRACTED in this city Is really
ouite amazing to those who are familiar with
the stringent regulations concerning such OBJ
structions in other cities, and the rigor with
which they are enforced. It is no uncommon
thinp-indeed, it is daily occurence-for
persons to leave drays, wagons, and even
floats, standing in our principal thorough
fares, to the obstruction of the commerce OF
the street and to the great danger OF those
who drive through the dimly lighted streetS
at night . g-..s3
Storekeepers do not hesitate. in many In
stances, to blockade the banquettes' nos ,oi
hours or days, merely, but for month";
Fruit dealers seem to imagine that they nave
some presumption right to monopollze inc
banquettes and go to the extent OF erecting
booths and permanent stands upon tnem'
Other people doing large business are COM
relIed TO rent large stores and pay neevy
t..as. bat your fruit dealer rents small
room on principal street and spreads him
self and his stock over the sidewalks, which
are generally supposed to have been made
for the public use.
All this is very wrong, and establishes bad
nrecedeut It's Warrant for anybody to
break any municipal ordinance, and we fail
to see how the city can in fairness demand
that one portion of the people shall obey its
ordinances, when it permits their open and
fragrant violation by others. Any government
that habitually permits its authority to be con-
temned and disregarded soon sinks to the level
of popular contempt; hence the municipal or.
dinances governing the commerce OF the
streets and banquettes, should either be re-
pealed or enforced with proper dignity and
frmness. Democratic governments can know
no favorises- they must deal with all men
equally and justly.
: 1t is. expected of every man that ne obey
the law, and no man can defy the law or sys
tematicslly disregard it without injury to his
neiQhbor and danger to the Government
We echo the sentiment of large number o.
law-abiding people whom We insist that the
CITY authorities shall no longer be re-
specters Of persons, but shall make al citizens
equally obey the ordinances, which are in the
main salutary and wise. Encroachment
upon the rights of the public are borne will
in this city more uncomplainingly than else
where. but when tolerance and patience ar
construed into apathy and accepted az war
rant for continued disregard of the law, and
still holder aggressions, it IL time 70 call
halt and TO enter protest.
