is entitled to a lamp at both corners and center
of each block, from Eighth avenue south to
Henncpin avenue, if Eighth, Sixth and Third
streets and Eighth avenue not entitled to
one on each corner-Ereaing Tribune.
This question will be very easily answered
if the aforesaid taxpayer VII carefully watch
the action Of the gas committee of the COM

to put them up and light them, and the gas
committee did exactly as they were bid to
do. But how is it for economy, anyway?
