The ordinance introduced into CoUn-
Gil last Thursday night should be prop
erly understood, especially by property
holders in that section Of the city, who
will be affected by the change proposed
in the ordinance. After some months
of labor the Baltimore and Philadel-
shia Railroad Company have come to
the conclusion that their interests and
the interests of those who own property
on Scott and Fourteenth streets will be
better subserved by a change in the
grade of those streets. BY the original
ordinance they cross Fourteenth street
Mt five and four-tenths feet above the
Grade of that street and Scott street, ut
seven and three-tenths feet above grade.
BY lowering the grade of the latter
street sufficient passage way is at
forded TO all the travel along that street.
FOR the sake of convenience the Rail-
road Company temporarily filled in the
crossing at Scott street and raised IL at
intervals since, until now it is some SIX
feethigh, making very bad crossing IN
muddy weather. ..
The change the Railroad Company is
now asking, is to be permitted to fill up
Scott and Fourteenth streets to the
railroad grade by which travel on those
streets will pass over and level with the
railroad tracks instead of under there.
The Company propose to indemnify the
city and to purchase the property OF those
vho reside on those streets who 40 hot
wish to remain after the change Is
effected. and the company also obligates
itself to place safety gates and watch
men at the crossings to, guard aga,l,ss
danger, The property holders in that

vicinity will after reading this properly
understand exactly what is proposed to
be done. They and the Railroad Com
pany are the parties most interested.
The City Council is the body that Is to
say whether the proposed changes will
be made and that body will grant all
q patient hearing. There is no doubt
that the proposed change will be bsne,
fit to the Railroad Company and the
question remaining is, will it equally
be beneficial and convenient for the
property holders, and thdbs who travel
these streets. This is question to be
carefully considered and acted upon.

What right, legal or moral, has any
man to keep a vicious brute in the

petual nuisance and danger by snarling
and swapping at people passing along
the highways, only varying his assaults
By fying a. tie legs or Threats of stran-
gers whichever tile chain Or the fence
fails to keep him bdck? Keeping such
brutes where they have opportunity to
attack strangers is an invasion Of tie

Among the important bills killed ii
the House is It the one TO provide for the
settlement Of disputes in counting the
electoral vote. The House wanted to
deprive the Senate of all power in The
matter, and to deny State Governments
the right to decide upon the validity'of
certificates given. The failure of the
bill is altogether preferable to the pas
sage of a bill to give a partisan MAORI
ty in one house the power to Seal tile
