THE STREETS.
A Petition to Have Them Cleaned
at Once.


The following petition will be pre-
sented to the City Council at its next
meeting:
To the Honorable The City Council Of
Los Angeles:
GENTLEMEN The undersigned, ,citi-
zens and property owners of Los
Angeles city, are conscious OF the very
serious injury done to all the interests
of our city by the dangerous. unhealth-
full and filthy condition of our streets.
The streets OF Los Angeles are emit
ting evil odors, which cause typhoid
and malarial fever, and may at any
moment bring about an epidemic
which would cause a panic, and
permanently cripple us. Visitors and
newcomers to this country are driven
away from our city, horfitied at the
condition Of our streets, the accumu-
lations of decaying mud in front OF
our stores and homes.
The citizens request that the City
Council give their valuable time and
attention to the cleansing of our
street., the present condition Of which
is disgrace to the city administration
and source of injury to every busi-
ness interest of Los Angeles.
1t is no valid excuse to state that
Spring street, between Temple and
First streets, and First street will soon
be paved, and. therefore, should not
be improved now, but left in their
dangerous condition. We earnestly
and urgently ask the City Council to
~ 81 of
100 teams be ordered to cart away
the unspeakable, fever-spreading and
stinking filth from those two streets,
and that another 100 teams bring
gravel from the Arroyo in East Los
Angeles to be spread on those two
streets.
