The controversy on Jefferson street vas
late. AZ first retitious we're presented. ex-
pressing approval Of the proposed grade,
but later few people started hue and
cry of iobbery. which. however. he entirely
ignored. He invited the council
to make comparison OF the grades
on James street. which we're much sseener
then those complained Of. He entered
pretty fully into the details to show that he
was one Of the owners who would suffer by
tho action To which he was a marty and
which had bis approval. His view OF .
counciiman's duty was that he had to con-
slider the benefits to be derived by the whole
city and not solely the interests OF the
owners on the streets graded. He de-
Tended his own course and that Of the
council in making the improvements
agreed upon. He was in favor of the best
grades for the city with least damage to
abiding property owners. He strongly
urged that the grading be proceeded with.
Mr.. Hemis explained how he had built on
the Anderson block under lease to accord
with the proposed grade and that now he
will have an embankment in front OF the
property unless the street is graded.
On motion the city attorney vas In.
sfructed to res iss the Injunction suit.
