To the Editor of THE EvESISG STAR:
Surely some Que should be responsible for the
very rough condition of oar greatest thorough
fare. the eth street road \ very small amount
OF money JEo.iciousty spent would relieve it of
many rough places between the Boundary and
Bgi.htwood, and above Brishtwood it is not
only unpleasant for driving, but it is unsafe to
go faster than walk, and its condition is and
has been during the past winter Il disgrace to
the community. Some iynoramuS came along
i suppose in authority last autumn, and de-
>troyed the roadway. which then existed, by
deposition. broken and unbroken stone in the
center thereof, and sand and other unsuitable
material on the side. / contend, that ii they
had not the means to finish this roadway as
proposed, that it was great injustice To the
travelling public 10 cncunl Der it with unsuitable
material. Can something be done at once:
