There Is no doubt that the City Council
has authority to require the Brouehton
street property holders to pay two-thirds
OF the cost OF paving the street InleE-
sections, but it Is a question whether II IS
wise 10 exercise that authority. Ihe law
j. not mandatory. The Council may, II
I 1t sees proper. relieve the property owners
of the payment OF any part OF the cost OF
paving the intersections.
The question which presents itself is
tnis " i'll the establishment o! the prece-
dent that property holders must pay two
thirds Of the cost OF only that part Of the
pavement Immediately in front OF their
properties tend to promote the paving
OF the streets to any marked extent? II
Il will. it might be well to establish the
precedent. II 1t viii not there Is no very
strong reason why the city should shout
der the ensre cost OF paving the Brough-
ton street intersections.
The Broughton street property holders
claim that when they signed the petition
asking for the paving Of BrOughton street
they were under the impression that they
would be required to pay share of the
cost OF only that part OF the pavement in
/ front OF their holdings. That is doubtless
! true, but if that impression were errone-
GUS they cannot blame the City Council for
it. They had the law from which to learn
| what their liability would be, Ii they
| were in doubt they could easily have OBJ
tanned from the Council a statement
whether they would be required to pay
! tI, E =, Of
ment or only two-thirds of the cost
/ of that in front of their properties.
This they did not do, and it Is too late
now to ask TO be relieved of a portion of
the amount charged to them on the
ground that they did not know what they
were dong.
But would it not be to the advantage Of
tue city 10 place the burden of paving
street intersections upon the city? I'm
less the city bears larger share of the
cost OF paving than it proposes to DO on
Br0ughtOn street there Will not be much
paving done i'll the near future. The
cost OF paving a streets intersections is
very considerable part of the cost Of
paving a street, ana if the city were to
assume this cost there is no doubt that
the disposition to pave other streets would
be much stronger.
While it is true that the paving of
street is Of great benefit to the property
which borders on it, The fact cannot be
overlooked that the public is also bene-
dted, and that, too, perhaps, to as great
an extent as the adjacent property hold
ers. While the Broughton street property
holders may not have the law on their
side, they have case in which there is "a
good deal OF equity.
The question for Council to consider,
however, is the interests OF the public.
Being satisfied that it mas authority for
the course it 10 pursuing it is now asked
to determine whether different course,
which would not be in violation of law,
would not do more to promote the public
good.

The Mischief OF Pretty Waiter Girls.

Prom tie st. Jdnaes Gazette.
Though the soup may be clear, and the fish
may be good,
And the lamb and the sparrow grass tender,
How on earth can person attend to the food
That attendants SO fam to htm render?
Tho each dish be success, and the menu com
plete,
And the table could not be laid neater,
Yet, languidly let fall the spoon in the sweet
Since my thoughts turn to something far
sWeeter!
Though the Glessler right up to the brIm of the
gas
Like a sOutlle of diamonds be Dreaming,
1t looks duh when 1 glance at the eyes OF the
lass
That just over my shoulder are cleaning.
No! give me the walters thick hands and
white ties,
When | wish to persistently gobble,
For can't feast my mouth when am feasting
my eyes
Nor digest while my hearts on the wobble.

Gathering in the Lambs.

From the Boston RecOrd,
Little P is learning a great deal at sun
day school now. The figure of the shepherd
folding his lambs in his bosom has particularly
i'm pressed his childish Imagination, and his
tendency to recur to 1t in conversation W as
accepted as proof that his lessons were sink
ing deep into his heart.
ADO you know how the shepherd puts his
lambs in his BOSOM" he asked his sister yes
terday.
"Why, yes" said she, she just takes them
and puts them there.
But he has to KIN 'em and cook 'em first, ;"
said little P.
Cook Jhem?'
Yes, and he eats EN-, and then he has 'em
in his bosom'
And the boy stroked his chest and stomach
downward IN way that left no room to doubt
his full appreciation of his own theory as TO
the proper way TO gather lambs into ones

This journal hopes and believes that the
primaries will make but few ifany mistakes
In their selection Of delegates. It is the in.
tererest OF the party to secure honest and
competent county. officers, and such can be
secured only through intelligent and consci
entious delegates. Let then the party be true
to the principles Of Its great men, and to
that progressive spirit Of the dayw which de.
clares that 1t is crime to put men into of.
nee solely for party fealty without regard
to fitness. We trust that the voters of each
precinct will turn out ca mas.c and select
men truly representative ofthe party. Per.
