Mayor Winter stated at the meeting
OF the city council on Tuesday evening,
that he would leave for Washington City
in a few days, and as he expected 70 be
absent two or three weeks, he suggested
the propricty OF having the council selec:
one of its members to act a. mayor dur
ing his absence. Alderman Halliday
suggested Alderman Rittenhouse as the
proper person to fill the position in
Mayor Winters absence. Alderman
Rittcnhouse was elected, OF course.
The mayor did not state the object Of his
visit 10 Washington, but it Is generally
supposed to be in connection with the APP
preparation for the improvement OF the
Mississippi river at this point.
Alderman Wright thinks the side.
walk on Fourteenth street between
Walnut and Cedar streets can be dis
pensed with, and at the meeting OF the
council on Tuesday evening introduced
a resolution ordering it to be torn
down. We do not agree with Alderman
Wright in reference to this sidewalk;
but believe that instead Of tearing it
down the council should order it to be
repaired without delay. This walk is
a great convenience to large number
OF persons living on the ridge above
Fourteenth and back OF Cedar street,
besides hundreds of colord people living
in the barracks. 1t Will not cost as much
10 repair the walk in question and put it
in good condition as it will to tear it
down and remove the rubbish.
