Of committee on streets. Relative change

Of committee on streets. Relative change
of street grades
Your committee to whom was referred the
matter of the change of street grades in the
LIST and I'd wards respectfully report against
the proposed changes, for the following reasons:
That the changes proposed are in most cases
too slight to be of the least practical benefit to
either the property or the public.
That nearly all of the streets where said
changes are proposed have been recently graded.
and are practically at the established grades
thereof; and that any changes however slight,
having or proposing improvements, and that
the frequent change in street grades which has
become SO prevalent, is source of vexation
and anxiety to property holders, requiring a
constant state of watchfulness on their part, to
prevent their property from being damaged by
the uncalled for and entirely unnecessary acts
of the engineer.
The prOfles submitted are incomplete, the
elevation in figures being shown on but one
grade line, where both should be distinctly
shown. On the profile of jackson street at
Third street crossing, the blue grade line pur-
an elevation differing from the figures within
established grade of Third street 43.2,'' and
established grade Of Third street 44.8." show
ing an evident error either in the grade line or
figures. The figures seem to correspond with
the proposed instead of the established grade.
change Of street grades, and to all changes un-
less demanded by public necessity, or the wants
Of the property owners, neither Of which seems
to be the case in the changes proposed.
We recommend that all changes hereafter
made in grades, be made by special ordinance
statlng the elevations Of both the established
and proposed grades in reference to the CITY
base, also noting each and every change in like
manner, thus making complete record Of the
changes such as any person of ordinary intelli.
gence can understand. : -

To the Honorable the Common Council of the
City of st. Paul:
GENTLEMEN:-Your committee to whom was
referred the request of M. ]. O'Connor ESQ.,,
city clerk for an investigation of the matters
charged against him by the report of the last
Of certain names upon the poll lists of the
elections of 1876, on file in his office; having
fully investigated the entire matter, and the
conduct and connection of the city clerk there
with do respectfully report as follows:
That the judges Of election are required by
tor the duplicate poll lists of each election,
that such lists when so filed are public records
open to the inspection and examination of all
persons, that this was done after the election of
1876, and that the list so filed with the city
clerk were by him kept in his Office in the
usual and proper manner, that in the care and
custody of those lists the city clerk has in all
things performed his entire duty we'll. faith
fully and honestly, and that his conduct as to
them is entirely above suspicion, and not in
any way liable to the slightest censure, and
that the report Of the grand jury SO far
seems to your committee to be very grave err
ror and an entire Misrepresentation Of the law,
and insomuch as great injustice has been clear
ly done to a faithful and efficient officer by
that report, couched in the language that it is,
your committee felt it their duty to point out
IL,
which the grand jury seem to have proceeded
when the adopted it.
The basis of they report referred to is, that
the entry of improper check-marks upon the
poll lists necessarily gave opportunities for
great frauds in election matters, that is, that
the names SO checked would necessarily be car
ried on the next poll List and being upon the
list on the day Of election that the vote of no
person giving that name could be rejected.
hence each fraudulent check-mark would form
basis and represent fraudulent vote. If this
statement were correct it would indeed give
grounds for grave apprehension and would
fully justify the grandiloquent and sounding
phrases in which the report of the grand jury
is framed, but it is matter Of congratulation
for all citizens that the statement above re-
ferred to is one entire mistake, both in law, in
fact and in the deplorable results attributed; !;
indeed % the converse Of the entire proposition Is
true, that is, that the placing Of improper check
marks upon the poll lists after their fling does
not necessarily cause the name SO checked to be
carried forward on to the new list, that If the
name so checked should be carried forward. ii
does not at all allow Of facilitate the casting
