be apt tot put l. with much longer
NIX. GEO GE sTEINHOUsE:
IF the street REQ aims that way much
longer, we Will have no street at all. 1t
was much better as it formally was.
If the gentlemen composing the street
committee will not urge Mr., Nellis TO do
his duty, they should resign
Mr.. JOHN sTELzER
thought il a shame that street in any
portion OF the city should remain in such
condition Tor any length Of time, but es-
pecially was it shame that a street used
as much as Eighth street should receive so
little attention
MR.. VALENTINE REsCH
"They might as well fence up the road at
each end as leave it in the present condi.
ton during the winter. Mr. NeIis will
never get my vote on this very account
He has shown by his action in this matter
that he takes no interest in the affairs Of the
city and he will not be apt TO take any
more interest in our county affairs
am ,-,yt- ,,o,rI,.
The street should not have been touched at
all or finished at once. As II is, il will be-
come steadily worse and during the wet
winter be entirely worthless. Serious blame
rests upon the responsible party.

Zone can see from the present appearance
of the street that it should have immediate
attention. Il should have been immediate
" grayeled when it was lowered, but since
that was not done the city will now have to
90 to the extra expense of regarding it be-
fore the contemplated improvements can be
made
COIN & Co:
"The condition of our street seriously in
terriers with business. 1t 5 all cut up, and
everybody who does business on it are anx-
lous that Mr.. Nellis be in some way forced
to comply with the terms of his contract
MIR. ". L. BRISTOL:
"You can say for me that desire the
immediate improvement Of the street, but
do not blame Mr.. Nellis tor not having
gravel here think the river has been
too low to admit Of his bringing it. am
anxious that the street should have imme-
dtate attention.
MR.. sCHMETzTORFF
"The business Of the merchants on this
street is being greatly injured by the indlf
ference or wifull neglect of Mr.. Neliis.
Other men must fulfill contracts Of minor
importance and why should he be an ex-
ception to the rule!'
MR.. WIN. WINTER
! have all the fault in the world to find
with this street. The first gravel that Mr..
Nelis brought should have been put on
it. Yesterday while it rained the sewers
became stopped up, and one could ride
around here in skiff
MR.. II. G. SARGENT:
am very anxious that the street should be
tended to, but not knowing to whose ncgi-
gence ltsconltion must be attributed, do
not know whom to censure.
A. RAGGfo;
This street IL used more than any other,
yet is the worst in the city and is receiving
the least attention. This is all wrong. If
Mr.. Nclis IL the responsible man he should
be forced, il possible, to wright the wrong.
Mr.. WIN. NJ. DAVIDSON;
They have gone to great deal OF useless
trouble in preparing it for the reception of
the gravel, aud it is now in such terrible
condition that would pay my share to-
wards panking it.
Mr.. WIN WEBER:
SIT is a fact that don'tdo halt the business
| would do if the street was in proper order,
and am emphatically in fav;r that the
contractor be required to fulfill his contract
at once. You have no idea what an amount
of dirt is dragged into my store in wet
weather and the amount of dust that covers
our wares in dry weather. A groveled
street would alter all this
Mr.. GEO. W. Y0CuM.
(of Yocum & Broderick): "The city has
spared no expense in lowering the street,
and its condition will in q short time be-
come such as &c 8 vously interior With bn's
