prB1rc WORKS IN AsBURY PARK.

TO tbe Fditor Of The Tribune
sir: During the past twenty years Asbury Park has
received at the hands Of the metropolitan press qhto
as much space as has been accorded to any other
resort on the Atlantic Coast Very much Of the
matter has been truthful and fair end for this we have
been grateful: but some articles have blended
curions mixture of truth and falsch0od. We were
astc,nded to find In yOur issue OF last Sunday
letter dated at Long Branch, wherein II was stated
that the glory Of Asbury Park is departing because Of
the horrible condition" Of its streets "full Of holes
and deep rlts. which daily grow worse" Then these
additional allegations are made: some NONRESIDENT
propery-owners are considering the Plan of bringing
the case before the Monmouth Grand Jury-to nave
the Commissioners indicted. "An investigation Is
being made to ascertain where the money is gone
that should have been used upon the streets for the
last four or five years.
Permit us to assure You and your readers that these
statements, which pontedy reflect upon the hohor
and integrity OF our Board OF Commissioners, are
utterly and entirely untrue. Tie streets of Asbury
Park ore in as good condition as they ever we're at
this season of the year, and good as any ulpaveh
streets I'm the state They carefully watched
by competent men, ncpient ruts quickly filled with
clay and gravel. crosswals kept in good repair, and
the roadbed scraped and levelled after every hcavy
rail- That any resident or nonresident property
owners should talk OF bringing the CASE before the
Grand Jury is the acme of absurdity; they have no
10 bring.
There is no investigation Of accounts In progress,
and no one here has ever Heard Of such proposal
The bills for street repairs are brought before the
Governing Board and read in open session. The
books and accounts are freely open TO the humblest
citizen aud DO not believe that there exists in the
United states a town council that works har-
monously and oOnscentiously, enjoys to greater
degree tie confidence and esteem o. its constituents,
than does the Board Of Commissioners Of Asbury
