An Indignant Citizen Wants to Know

EDITOR HERALD: My object in tres
passing on your columns is to ask you
when will Summit Avenue on Mount
Pleasant be graded? Is the City Coun-
Gil going to take any action in it? Who
is 10 blame for the delay? Is it the
Street Superintendent, the City Engi-
neer, ur the Board OF Public Works?
Does not the City Council attend to
street grading. Who are we to call
upon in such cases as this, We have
waited patiently for over a year, and
have been ready with the coin to pay
our assessments, but where is the Street
Superintendent why don't he come and
collect the assessments? or must we petit
tion the City Council again to have said
avenue graded and wait another year
aud be inst as far advanced as we are
now? or must we grade it ourselves at
our own eypen,e: The city ought to be
ashamed to tolerate such a nu, ance.
II takes good pair OF horses to be
able to pull an empty wagon through
that dirty stagnant ;nud, which stands
at least three feet derp in front Of every
house TN said avenue. and yet we are
not able to obtain an aileviation OF this
internal and abomir able evil, which no
city under Gods shining sun would for
q moment hesitate to remedy What
is the objecls l hope that it is the last
time that shall speak on the same sub
ject, for have once before this occu
pied your columns.
Ii the city has any shame they will
attend to it at once.
Yours, etc, JUSTICE.

have been much less offensive than was

Forewarned is forearmed. Even the
work Of placing torpedoes in our principal

would suit the age of Rip Van Wrinkle

WASHINGTON, d. c., March 3.-The
Senate Committee on Public Lands has
decided by nearly unanimous vote in
favor Of the forfeiture OF the Texas Pa
cite Territorial land grant assigned to
the Southern Pacific Railroad Co. A
motion was then made to restore the
land to the public domain, and, pending
action, the committee adjourned. To
restore the lands Immediately to the
public domain, without other action than
is provided in the House bill, would, in
the opinion OF some of the members of
the committee, leave the land sub, ect to
appropriation under existing laws for
speculative purposes. 1t is proposed to
consider and perhaps amend certain fea-
lures of the House bill so as to make
sure that the land will be available for
no other purpose than actual settlement.
