yACATING ALLEYS.

At the last meeting of the city
council that body passed an ordi-
nance vacating a certain alley
through block No. 7 of this city be-
longing to Judge Burnett and the
writer. Nothing has heretofore ap-
peared in the GAZETTE upon this
subject because we had the object in
view of getting this particular alley
vacated and hence we did not feel
Justified in discussing a subject that
others might. attribute to self inter-
est as a motive for doing SO. Be
lieying that the effects of open alleys
in a town naturally involves the
health and lives of all of our citizens
and the alley that we were directly
interested-in having been vacated, we
therefore take the liberty of calling
attention TO the evil effects of them.
The petitioners for vacating the
alley alluded to did it because the
alleys in this town, as well as all
other towns heard from, are used
simply and most generally for the
purpose of the adjoining occupants
dumping filth, dirt and refuse mat
ter, where it remains until the damp
season of the year creates moisture
enough to supply plenty of mud
when the drays, trucks, wagons and
stock of different kinds going through
such alleys mixes trash filthsard mud
all up together where it remainss un-
til 1t makes the nastyest most foul
and filthy csspool that the human
imagination can think Of. This state
of affairs soon contaminates the
whole atmosphere around and the
result is that the people are taken
down with fevers and blood poison
ings of different. kinds and many of
them are thereby ::'carried to the
grave. Not only such is the result
bnt the city is continually being put
to ex"ense to keep suchs places clean
and with all efforts in that direction
there never was town in existance
which ever has been able with all
the vigilance imaginable to keep
their alleys in clean and decent
condition. If all the property hold
ers on any block petition the city
council or consent to the alley in
such block being vacated, the council
then have authority to vacate it.
In the interest of health and clean
illness we invite the people of our
town to consider the questions here
suggested, and if thought proper to
act upon the suggestion. If any
doubts arise in the minds of any per.
son regarding filthy alleys let scuh
persons go along and through the
alleys of our town aud examine the
mixture there to be found. 1t after
such examination they fnd anything
clean or calculated to promote health
we would be glad TO have their re-
