The sepenfh Street assessment.


The Secentt Street Assessment.
To the Editor of the Globe.
In your report of the proceedings of the
chamber of commerce last Monday, Mr.. Muir
ray makes sweeping statement that the
grade Of Seventh street, as now adopted and
being worked to, is ''exactly where Mr.. Will
Illus and all the others that are now opposing
the assessment and kicking against it wanted
it placed" Our worthy city attorney is in
error here. In the immense mass of mu-
nicipal business taken cognizance of by him
it can hardly be expected that he should re-
member all the local details and ramiica-
tons of the suburbs, but we poor people of
Dayton's bluff have had good cause to note
and remember every step of our struggle to
get this famous improvement started.
The grade desired by the people of Day
toms bluff, whether assessment kiekers or
otherwise now, some three years ago was one
cutting only two feet at the summit, instead
of fifteen feet as now, but such a grade on
sober second thought could not help being
discarded as delusion, a mockery and
snare. Ferdinand Willius wanted deep cut
of twenty or twenty-five feetin reality, but
grade on the theory that the street wouli
have to be still further cut down some future
time, when the absurdity of the supposition
that taking off two feet from hill 10 feet
high would be benefit should be appre-
ciated. The rejection of this shallow-cut
grade made a sort of deadlock for a while
as the most influential of the property own
ers between Maple avenue and Margaret
street would not listen to any proposition that
would lower the then street surface
in front of their respective
lots and blocks After a
time, however, the break came, by the prop
erty owners between Maple avenue and
Eichenwald streets being willing to allow
II ope street summit to be lowered as much
as practicable, by commencing the cut at
Eichenwald Qt may be remarked parentheti-
cally, however, that this was something like
the willingness of Artemus Ward to sacrifice
his wife's relations on the altar of his coun-
try) From this action resulted the present
grade. Many people who could not portray
things in the minds eye, now realize that
the best interests of the city, for country
outlet, and of the locality for street, would
have been better subseryed by such cut as
Mr.. w. and some others desired three years
ago.
Though the contractors cover the whole of
Seventh street from Phalen's creek to Min
nehaha street with their railway tracks and
operations, it NAV be a surprise to some to
know that /, 200 feet, or very nearly one,
third of a mile of the original steep ascent
will remain the same as before the contract
was let, the result of the lack of foresight
and public spirit related above.

On Tuesday evening myself and Mr.. Adam

had few social all around during the even

Conley had quite an animated conversation,
during which he made some very filthy re-
marks to me. was somewhat under the
influence of drink. replied back to him in
a manner that he did not like, and he treach-
erously sneaked up behind my back unawares
and coward-like struck me. / fell on the
floor, and while in this position Conley and
one of his bar keepers made an effort for a
blind to assist me to my feet. After regain
ing my feet | only remained a few minutes
in the place, the lights were put out as I was
passing out. When / reached the sidewalk

diamond ring valued at five hundred dollars.
This ring l purchased from Mr.. Simon, the
Jackson street jeweler, last June. He can
certify that the ring was Al. A seventeen
cluster diamond scarf pin, with fine gold
neck chain attachment, cost one thousand

One twenty dollar gold piece, one ten dollar
gold piece, these l wore as charms on my
watch chain and few other articles of small
value.
The only thing that surprises me is, why
they left me my valuable chain and watch,

diamond cluster ring worth three hundred
dollars. They done me up for something
over fifteen hundred dollars. And this out
rage was committed right in the heart of the
city, within call of a powerful and supposed

court suggests another contract be entered

Cranberrx Culture.

The cranberry crop has not yet entered
very fully into the agricultural statistics OF
Massachusetts,, which, as gathered in the CEN
Gus reports, are not exact enough TO be much
quoted. In 1866 the number OF bushels re-
ported were "a Cpl, and the value Sl01, SIS;
in 1875 the quantity had increased TO ITO lS4
bushels of which 45, 267 we're raised IN
BaTnstsble County alone-the total value
there being S113, SIS, and in the whole State
S2SS ll3. This year, says the Boston Journal,
the crop of Barnstsble County alone Is esti-
mated 10 exceed $500 600 in value. while in
Plymouth County the crop may be as large
or nearly so-chiefly in the towns OF Car
yer, Rochester. Plymouth, Pembroke, Dux-
bury and a few more. The town OF Carver
alone, which in 1875 reported agricultural
products to the extent of only Sol 600 may
produce any good year cranberries enough
to more than double this whole value OF
farm products. 1t would be needful that the
three hundred acres, more or less OF the Car
yer cranberry meadows should yield City
barrels per acre, which, at present prices,
would net $4,000 or more than five times
the reported farm products. There are
plenty of other towns in the two counties
which will soon give better account of
their cranberry income than all the rest of
their farming.
