LONG BEACH, Aug. 13.--The sugges-
tion OF the HERALD yesterday that the
trustees pass an ordinance for lighting
the streets met with the approval of the
citizens of this place. In conversation
with one today he stated that the busi-
ness men had agitated the matter last
year and many had offered to helppay for
the Improvement but for some reason
the trustees did notpass the law. How
ever as they hold meeting in the early
part of next week some action will prob
ably be taken as now is the time that
the lights are the most needed.
THE TRUSTEES.
The trustees who have been sitting as
board of equalization for the past
week, waiting to hear complaints made
by taxpayers met tonight for the
last time. AS no disconnected citizen
has yet put in an appearance to pro-
test, he will have to subsidise the city
at the old rate for another year.
The trustees have had the subject of
lowering the levy under consideration
for some time and action looking to that
end may be taken at the meeting this
week.
