MARIETTA DAILY LEADER
GOOD WORK

BY Agent Brown, of the B. & o. s. w.
Who Makes Some New Regulations.
There are few people in Marietta
who have not at some time or other
expressed their objections very for
chilly to the unsightly string of freight
cars allowed to stand on Second street
in front of the Union Depot. Mr..
Brown, local agent of the B. & o. s.
w. has secured the inauguration of a
new rule which will hereafter prohibit
freight cars being left standing any
where on the track above the crossing
at the south side of the depot building.
This action will undoubtedly be high
ly appreciated by the general public,
who have been. long suffering in the
matter, and will add greatly to the ap-
pearance of both street and depot.
The ladies of the Improvement Asso-
citation expect to include Second street
on their list of fortunate thorough
fares and marked changes in that vi
cinitywill be noticeable in the near fu-
ture.
Another rule laid down by Mr..
Brown, and one which will be strictly
adhered to, is for the purpose of keep
ing hack drivers off the depot grounds
entirely and keeping them to the curb
line on Second street.
