While OF course the elimination OF sAe
YeSser corner wss the rrsacipai sub
srct OF approving eomns-sss. there was
scarcely less satisfaction over the ex-
tension of South Third street. Busi-
hess men particularly re,o.cei In the
advantages which this extension wiIl
give IN the matter 81 hsfssssstng freighis

suggested, and very properly. that the
council lose 10 ssae in itaproying this
street in way that viii ssske il avail
abie as a thoronghfase fu4 freixhting
traffic during the present emergency.
II was noted yesterday. with more
amusement than alarm. that the rail
road company which holds squat
ter's right TO the property condemned,
was engaged in throwing up a wooden
structure directly across the proposed
street. Since the authority Of the city
Is absolute and unquestion<d. this OBJ
sfruction can have no effect excepting
TO illustrate wrath which might Just
as well be held in check.
1t is believed that upon sober second
thought Mr.. Yesler viii regard
this matter of the replas
in the right spirit. His
great fortune is the result OF the de.
velopment Of this city and be has still
more to expect from the future pro-
gress- The cut which wipes out his OBJ
strneting corner will add immensely
TO the value OF his other properties in
the immediate vicinity. both directly
and Indirectly With these iaets in
view it is not likely that he wit allow
any foolish motives of pique 70 inter
fere with good business policysin the
administration of his miscellaneous
properties. And beyond all, il is not
likely that Mr.. Yesler, having for
nearly forty years looked upon Seattle
as the child OF his own creation, will
now, out of mere spite, hecare an
enemy OF its progress and we'll being.
With The vexesf question OF the re-
Plat now definitely settled TO the.greAt
advantage of the traffic and the ap-
pearanee of The city. and TO the CON-
Ilets satisfaction of The general public,
the work of rehahilitaiing the city will
