The budget matter. and the way how to meet

solution being reached The question Of sell
ing the franchise for street railroad along

eaeh could be realized by the sale Of the fran
chise-variously estimated at from $4,000 10
$4,000. II is asserted that 10000 has certainly
been offered for such franchise. The Ques-
ton with the Council Is. however not entirely
one of money. aud the necessity for railroad
along the streets named is also taken into con-
sideration together with the possible objections
Of individuals owning property along the line,

tinuous. and so gentle as to nearly all
sink into the earth. It was a grand

cattle. We need. however, such a

in order to full replenishment Of the
thirsty earth.
