Taning thc Entended Idmits.

There is much dissatisfaction among
the owners Of property south of Anderson
street to the plan of streets as laid of by
the City Council, and growing opposl-
ton to the proposition to tax their
property. 1t is claimed by them that
the CITY, in dividing up the property,
has ignored all property lines,
causing lots 10 lap over on to other prop
erty, thus taking the land owned by diff
fercnt owners to make up block, and
opening the way to endless disputes and
liugauons These owners OF property
also claim that further injury IS done by
the small size Of the blocks and the taking
Of a large portion OF the lands-estimated
at 40 per cent. of the entire area-for
streets and lanes. In some instances
these streets and lanes are so laid out as
10 entirely do away with the streets upon
which houses are already erected. In
addition to this, it is asserted that the
city. by reason of its already large in
debtedness, is unable TO pay for the large
amount of land that il has set apart and
proposes to take for the streets; and, fur
Their, that the city is not able to give the
people in the extended limits gas, water
or police protection. There can be no
question that the plan of streets and lots
adopted by Council has been very injuri-
Gus TO the interests Of the property-Owners
in the extended limits between Bull and
Montgomery streets, and it might be we'll
for Council to reconsider its plan and
adopt one which will conform to property
lines and the streets heretofore laid off by
the owners. such plan would save a
large sum Of money to the city in the cost
of street ways and give what is much
needed in this city-larger blocks. Every
additional street and lane in Savannah
adds to the cost of polIceing it and Keeping
it clean. 1t might be we'll to do away
with lanes altogether in new sections of
the city, as they are of no advantage, and
are useful only as places for accommodating
NTH and furnishing building sites for
houses to be rented to class of people
who are not desirable in respectable
neighbOrhoods.
1t is not too late for the city to correct
the plan of the extended limits, and, if
the people ask that it be changed, there is
no reason why the change should not be
made.

just as he reached the church door he
cOllided with dog, causing him to take
"header" that resulted in the spelling
Of his clothes and the damaging of his
countenance. The dog raised It's voice in
canine lamentations taat excited the
whole congregation. The minister was
plucky, and preached his sermon. but he
did not make many converts that day.

The Way the Tribune Defends Roach
The New York Tribune has undertaken
to defend Mr.. John Roach, and it has
adopted the tactics of shyster attorneys.
1t thinks it helps MIR. Roach by SANDER
ing the attorney for the other side, Mr..
Garland. 1t says; 1.-The Attorney Gen
eral Mr.. Garland comes briskly forward
to do his part in aiding this admlnistra-
tion to punish Mr.. ohm Roach for being
a Republican shipbuilder and to throw
the work Of constructing an American
navy entirely into the United States navy
yards controlled by Democratic officials,
who will thereby handle the millions for
the good of the party"
The only question at issue is whether
Mr.. Roach has complied with his contract
in the construction of the dispatch boat
Dolphin. A competent committee of ma
val officers says that he has not, and the
Attorney General says that the govern
ment is not bound to accept the vessel if
she is not what the government contracted
for. The administration doesn't want to
punish Mr.. Roach for being a Republi-
him at all, and the Attorney General,
therefore. can hardly be charged with
doing his part in Furnishing him.
All that Mr.. Garland is trying to do Is
to protect the government. He was APP
pointed to do that, and the chances are
that he VIII discharge his duty faithfully,
even though so distinguished friend of
the late administration as Mr.. Roach
should be hurt.
The Tribune seems to forget that while
Mr.. Robson and Mr.. Chandler were in
charge of the Navy Department millions
of dollars were spent on the navy, and
that when the Democratic party came
INTO power there was absolutely nothing
to show for the money. The present Sec
retay Of the Navy doesn't intend to make
any such record as MIR. Robes0n or Mr..
Chandler made. He proposes that the gov
eminent shall get the worth of its
money every time. OF course Mr.. Roach
and his organ, the Tribune, win make
great cutlery, and declare that he is being
prosecuted for being a Republican, but
no sensible citizen will believe that.
The history of Mr.. ROach's con-
nection with the building and repairing
Of naval vessels during the past few
years iustifies the conclusion that he at
tempted to palm OF on the government a
comparatively worthless vessel at a price
that would purchase n frst-class vessel.
Mr.. Roach will have to comply with his
contracts If he wants TO do any work for
this administration.

The Ohio prohibitiOnists appear to be
rather over-sanguine, as well as unwise.
They can hardly have any foundation for
the boast they make, to the effect that
they will elect their State ticket, and the
declaration OF DIR. Leonard, their candi-
date for Governor, that rather than vote
TO license the traffic in Intoxicating
drinks he would vote for a fountain at
every street corner, from which should
low a continuous stream Of whisky free
to everybody, aud furnish tin cups from
which all who desired should drink their
till," has an extremely fanatical sound.
The friends OF temperance nearly every
where agree that high license law is
much better than free traffic in liquor.
