STREET IMPROVEMENTS.
~ City of Washington System of Narrow
Roadways and Low Cost.

Last summer. as the readers of TIE
HERALD viii remember, there was some
discussion OF the proposition to reduce the
width of the streets on the bench, by per
hitting property owners to move their
fences out to the sidewalk curbing. That
scheme was good. but there is better one,
which 1as been adopted in several eastern
cities ano IS about to pe adopted in Sacra-
mento. When Alderman Preshaw was
cast last fall he visited several places
where TINS Improvement of the streets had
been made, and it is his intention to urge
tue adoption OF the plan in this city. The
plan was the idea of ''Boss SHEPPARD"
that much abused man, but it made of
Washington the most beautiful city in
America, having the most finely paved,
beautifully parked and shaded streets
anywhere to be found.
The plan may be briefly described as fol-
US: Twenty years ago the streets of
washington were wide, unpaved and nearly
shadeless The city in summer was one OF
the hottest and most enervating place to be
found In the United States Now this is
all changed. The manner in which this
transformation was effected is a matter of
practical interest to Ogdenltes. 1t was
done by parking out from the side dis
tance Of several feet from the former c1rb
ano second row of shade trees were
planted along the outer edge. In three or
four years the beautiful wide lawn outside
the walk and the four rows of trees ex-
tending along the street attracted general
attention and admiration. Authority was
then obtained from Congress to thus mar
row and park all streets of the city, except
those where full width was required for
business or other purposes.
The results and benefits effected by mar
roSSksg the streets were almost lncalcula
BILE. In many instances from half 10 two
thirds the cost of paving the street was
saved. The lawn afforded in front of resi-
dences made property doubly attractive
and valuable, while the additional rows of
trees made the walks and roadways de-
lightfully shady, very greatly modifying
the temperature in summer and giving to
the residence portion of the city the ap-
pearance of an immense beautiful grove
studded with charming residences.
r. What has been thus accomplished to
make Washington beautiful can be accom-
plished in the same manner in Ogden
There is far less need of wide driveways
in the residence portion of this city than in
Washington. Ogden has natural advan
tages which will enable its citizens to make
II, mere beautiful and attractive than the
M fonal capital city, if they will use en-
er1t and determination
4'EXperience shows that the one great
obstacle to accomplishing this is the cost of
street improvement. Materially reduce
this cost and it will remove circumstances

Thanks to the Santa Fe


George r. Peck, general solicitor OF
the A., T. & S. F. railroad, is in receipt
of testimonial from the Oklahoma
legislature, evincing the gratitude fol
and appreciation of the people of that
territory of the wise and generous &C.
tion of President Marvel in providing
under his direction seed wheat for the
needy Oklahoma farmers.
The testimonial was prepared by q
committee of one from each house OF
the territorial Legislature and the gov.
ernor. It enclosed the following as
passed by the legislature:
HOUSE JOINT RESOLUTION NO. 10.
Be it Resolved, By the house of rep
resentatives, with council concurring,
that we tender the A., T. & S. F. rail-
road our thanks in behalf of the people
of Oklahoma territory for their gener-
GUS donation or loan of $4,000 worth
of seed wheat, and the presiding officer
of each house appoint committee Of

Judgment would be proper.

Axte!l Anchor: Several strangers
have been in this city during the last
few weeks looking for farms, some
wishing to buy, others to rent. People
from abroad have become conscious OF
the fact that the country in the vicinity
of Axtell is the garden spot of Kansas
and general rush for this locality may
be looked for at any time. During two
of the five years we have been here
other portions of the county have sui.
fered almost total failure, while crops
in this vicinity have been good. and
this year is no exception. Drouth ha.
ruined the corn crop in many places
but Murray township will harvest 6
fair crop, in many fields the yield reach.
ing forty bushels per acre.
Wellington Mail: Dick Millard, who
acted as clerk at Farris' big stock sale
informs us that the proceeds of the sale
were $4,000, and that the stock brought
good prices. OF this $4,000, notes fol
only $500 were taken, while $4,000 was
paid in cash, the buyers, who were
almost exclusively farmers, being ir
shape to take advantage of discount
for cash. The fact that the farmers
were able to pay cash is significant
Ordinarily, $4,000 would have been
taken in notes and but $500 paid il
cash. But in this instance it was just
the reverse, and demonstrates conclu-
sively that the farmers of Sumner
county are getting in better shape each
year. Sumner county has no superior
on the face of the globe, and is th'
right one to tie to.

FIFTY-FIRsT CONGRESS.

EXTENSION. OF TINE TO HoAIEsTEADERs.
The house passed the senate bill extending
for one year the time for payment by settlers
on public lands in case of drouth.
FREE DELIVERY AT SMALL TOWNS.
The senate passed tn house bill to enable
the postmaster general to test at small towns
and villages the practicability of the free de-
livery system.
CARLISLE.
The senate had postponed final action on
the tariff bill one day by reason of Senator
Carlisle, of Kentucky, being somewhat in
disposed;" it having been set for him to speak
against the tariff bill at
THE ROUND UP.
Senator Carlisle spoke in severe criticism
Of the bill, especially the paragraph propos-
on beet sugar, which he declared illegal and
unconstitutional.
Senator Allison responded to Carlisle and
denied the accuracy of many of his state
ments.
Senator Aldrich then closed the discussion
and voting commenced. Paddock, Petit
grew and Plumb voted no, with the demo-
Gratis; Senator Plumb's vote being the last
one recorded. This left the final result, yeas
80. nays 81; the rest of the senators being
paired. some of them absent.
The vice president LAID before the senate
Ihree veto messages from the president, two
of them on bills referring to the court of
claims the claims of Charles P. Chouteau
and of the Portland company, of Portland,
Me-, and the third one, the bill to prohibit
bookmaling and pool selling in the District
of Columbia for purposes OF gambling: The
presidents objection to the latter bill is that
it does not prohibit bookmaking and selling,
h,,ko tho ppPp,ifS IL N the Of
the Washington Jockey club and of other clubs
owning race tracks. If that form of gam
bling was to be prohibited (as the president
thinks it should be) prohibition should apply
to ali persons and places. The three mes
sages were laid on the table.
TARIFF BILL SIGNED.
The tariff bill was received from the house
with the speakers signature and it was inn
mediately signed by the vice president and
sent to the president of the United States for
his signature.
TO PREVENT CHINESE ENTERING.
A message was received from the house an
nouncing its concurrence in the resolution
as to negotiations with Great Britain and
Mexico to prevent Chinese entering the
United States.
This was the last action of the senate be-
fore adjournment without day.
OFFICE OF POSTMASTER VACANT.
Mr.. Caswell, of Wisconsin, submitted q
letter addressed to the speaker or the house
by James L. Wheat, postmaster of the house,
rendering his resignation. Subsequently Mr..
Spooner, of Rhode Island, from the COM
mittee on accounts, submitted the report of
that committee on the subject. The report
stated that the charges made by the
Enloe resolution against the postmaster of
the house have been substantially established.
The report ia accompanied by a resolution
declaring the Office of postmaster of the
house vacant, and directing the assistant
postmaster to perform the duties of post
master until a postmaster shall have been
elected and duly qualified.
And this was the last act of the house of
representatives, and the close of the long
session of the Fifty-first congress.
