A Suggestion.

Since the burning of the Garrison house
the erection of a new union depot has been
the absorbing theme, and many views have
been put forth by various parties. The
most feasible and at the same time most
convenient for the public and the city. is
that the depot be made TO front west upon
Usage street, allowing that street to be
continued north, and that Pacific street be
the north front of the depot, with the
tracks to the south. This plan would give
access Tor baggage-wagons and hacks on
the north side, away from the tracks, and
do away with the necessity of
every perssn who went to or from
the depot having TO climb over cars
or rush among the engines or wait until
the trains were gone b fore going up town.
Ii is sugges ed, too, that in case the block
betweeu Usage and Ohio is not long enough
for the use of the company that il would
be better to build scross Ohio street as that
street extends only one block further north
than the railrosd. Anyhow, to this end
the company could be given the block east
OF Ohio street in exchange for the one west
oil Usage street and both parties be g,iners
hereby.
