some places where the property owners had
built new cement sidewalks according to the
stakes set by the city engineer. and they are
now as good as when built. The board want
ed to tear up these walks and compel the
property owners to pay for new walks at the
curb line. There was much doubt about such
high-handed methods and letter was sent
TO the city attorney asking II private prop
erty could be thus confiscated for the benefit
of a few favorites. Mr.. Curtis promptly ans
wered that IL could not be. and thus the IA
vorites VIII be disappointed.
Mr.. Curtis also decided that Fletcher ave-
nue. can be opened across the Big -Four
tracks il the city previously makes tender
to the company of the amount OF the benefits
assessed A letter was directed TO the attor-
ney of the company asking that he call on

SENATOR nAcoN,s VIEWS.

Republicans Arming Their Men with Argu-
 menfs, but Silver Sentiment Unchanged.
 WASHINGTON, Aug. 23.-United States Senator Bacon, of Georgia, who has just returned from the Pacific coast, was at democratic headquarters to- day. He said that as the sentiment now existed in the country Bryan would te elected, but that repu blicans had told him that the sentiment of the people would change before election. He failed to see that the senti- ment of the country through which he had passed had changed, but was inclined to think that the money which the republicans were putting into the campaign would have it's eff feet. He did not mean by this that voters would be bought, but that the republicans would get their literature more largely circulated, would have more speakers and would have more and better informed men at many places who would te able to defeat tho democrats in arr Ument.
