Williams block, corner Fair Oaks avenue
and Colorado street, registered vigor-
GUS protest with the members of the
street and alleys committee of the city
council yesterday afternoon against the
telephone company placing two large
poles in front of his property less than
four feet apart.
The telephone company, claiming that
they are necessary on account of the
round corner and house. proceeded re-

poles in position.
The matter will probably come up at
the meeting of the council next Satur-
day..
