Hoos this morning, protesting about the
proposed change of the name OF Clifton

Mr.. Forbes opposes the change because
Clifton place is longer than Westcott
place and secondly to dignity such a
short street by the name of an avenue,
was in his opinion, absurd. The Mayor

boulevard Neglect a Growa
Scandal.

nh. oman air season is now well adj
rar,aa ard the Boulevard is thronged by
day with drivers of pleasure rigs anu ny
night with bicyclists, but practically noun
ing has yet been done to put the great
road in anything like reliable shape'
Whole miles of it are sprlnkieo viii
stones. Other miles of it are buried IN
dust and sand. The bridges are unlight-
ed The regular electric lights are ne
elected; last night dozens of them were
not burning, and the globes are fuli OF
4ba winters debris, SO as to be almost
OPAQUE. Contractors have left great
rough ridges where they nave opened
trenches for sewers and pipes. Other
contractors have piles of lumber anu
building material stacked upon the road'
occupying in at least one place one-third
of the width of the causeway for a
length of one hundred feet.
In a word, there is not the slightest
evidence perceptible to the naked eye
that anyone is taking the slightest inter-
est in the Boulevard, that anyone is IN
specting it, caring for it, working on 1t,
or that any money is being spent to save
IT from going to the "demnition bow
vows utterly. We are not ~exaggerat-
ing. We are not using a figure OF speech.
NOTHING is being done that can be de-
teeted.
And yet we have a Boulevard Com
mission of four men, all of whom are
supposed to have practical knowledge and
skill in Just such work as is needed here.
They are:-
Charles Birdsall, Democrat;
Daniel Y. Lewis, Democrat;
Robert Urquhart, Republican.
It is fair to ask, and the public want to
know what these four gentlemen are
about. And if they are not soon about
something very lively and practical and
useful, it will be in order for Judge Lip
pincott to direct the attention of the
Grand Jury to the condition of the road
and to their failure to amend it.
They nave an appropriation of s50,0OO-
This is not enough to put the road in good
order, but 1T is quite enough to remove
the worst of the evils, which are posi-
lively dangerous to the public. For in
stance, about SIS would suffice to remove
from the road the pebbles and brickbats
now scattered over it, especially in the
mile just north of the Newark and New
York bridge. 1t would not cost much
more, certainly not $50 to have the electric
light globes cleaned and all the lights put
in order, so that they will burn. Fifty
dollars more would start the lights on the
bridges, and about a hundred would suffice
to remove the deep sand banks on the
east side of the road in the mile or so
north of the Canal Bridge, and in the
hollow between the two great hills north
of st. Johns Catholic Church.
It is not so much a matter of mons
as of sheer, rank neglect. It looks as if
h Commissioners never looked at the
Boulevard, for If they did it is incredible
that they would allow evils easily
remedied to persist week after week, as
they do.

Especial to The Herald.)


Pocatello, Sept. 23.-George Robethan
today received dispatch from Captain
Wilmington, in command at the Pre-
sidio of company G of the First Idaho
volunteers, to the effect that company
E, recruited in Fremont and Bingham
counties, had voted soidly to come TO
Pocatello instead of going to Boise.
This is in line with the original plan of
the representative people of Fremont
and Bingham to have the men come di-
rect to Pocatello, and there receive the
welcome of their friends and relatives.
Incidentally it increases the work of the
people here, who, since the powers at
the state capital have succeeded in get
ting the balance of the regiment to fig
ure as a drawing card at the fair, had
arranged only for the reception of the
Pocatello company The Fremont and
Bingham people are enthusiastic over
the turn of affairs and hundreds from
both counties will be present to well
come the heroes.
Meanwhile every preparation is being
made here to extend a royal welcome
The frame work at the great arch at
the intersection of Center street and
Cleveland avenue is complete, and on
Monday will be turned over to the dec
Grating committee. Every business
house in the city is arranging it's dec
orations, and today wires are being
strung along the railroad front, from
which bunting will be hung. The special
train which is to bring the soldiers
from Nampa to Pocatelio is being pre-
pared, and will be literally covered with
gay colors. 1t is the intention to have
as engineer and conductor some of the
many men whose sons went forward at
the call to arms.

ROBBERS MAKE A BIG HAUL
TEAL $4,000 FROM WOMEN IN
CITY OF MEXICO.
Money Kept In Steel Box and Dis
tributed About the House Were
Secreted Various Large Sums.

City of Mexico, Sept. pa sensa-
tional robbery took place yesterday in
a suburb OF this city. Guadalupe Vas
ouez, an old woman, So years of age,
living with her widowed daughter, was
the victom. The women We're alone and
employed no servants, which is unusual
in this country among the people hay-
ing property. Everyone thought them
exceedingly poor but this was only APP
parent, for they had a great sum OF
money in the house there being kept
in a steel box no less than $4,000 in
bank bills, the proceeds Of the sale OF
hacienda near this city. Besides tins
sum there We're many thousands OF dol
lars kept in the wardrobes. in stockings
or between the leaves OF books
In some way news that the women
had a great amount of money got 10
tho ears of some men, who came TO the
house and hired a large corral at its
rear for the purpose OF keeping PIGS.
Their purpose was robbery. as now ap-
pears, and yesterday, the mother pelng
alone in the house, these men came
and. on the pretense of having a mes
sage to deliver, were let III by the OLD
woman. whom they seized and bound
with ropes. They then took the steer
box with the $4,000 and decamped, but
omitted to search for other money.
The women. on being interrogated Dy
the police said they had heard that
bank clerks had been stealing money
from banks. and they were afraid TO
deposit their funds. Many arrests have
heen made and the police are confident
they have discovered the robbers.

ton, the Rock Island and the North
western. In the event of their coming,
the Southern Pacific will be placed in
a position Of great advantage, an ad-
vantage that it does not now possess
with its eastern terminus at Ogden. -
Importance to Salt Lake.
The, direct Importance of this move
to the people of this community will
not be overlooked. The enhancement
in the value of property along the new
line will be one item; but the most di-
rect and tangible benefit to come al
once will be the probable construction
at this point of the Southern Pacific
car and repair shops and the addition
to the population of some 800 well paid
mechanics with their families
No definite information can be OBJ
tanned at this time as to whether or not
the present piece of road of the South
ern Pacific, extending from Wells to
Ogden, will be abandoned or not
Whether it is or not is immaterial, as il
passes through no important towns and
has little local traffic The main fact
is that the Southern Pacific is coming
into Salt Lake, and that in a very short
time. 1t is expected that actual con-
struction work will commence as soon
as necessary details relating to the alb
sorption OF the Central Pacific have
been disposed of.

through Elko county, Nevada, and
Tooele county, Utah, slirting the
southern shore of Great Salt lake and
entering this city from the west.
The accompanying map shows the
general course of the new, line. A blue
print of the survey is now in the hands
of a Southern Pacific official at Wells.
Orders have been received there, too,
to unload ties, rails and building ma
terial from the west at that point.
Will Save Expenses.
This new line viii be very close to
$50 miles in length, sixty miles in Ne
vada and 120 miles in Utah. The rea-
sons for building it have been obvious
to practical railroad men for years. In
the first place, the country through
which it will pass affords an easy
grade, while the grade on the present
line is very heavy, necessitating double
engines for very ordinary locals. 1t
is estimated that the saving in the run
ming expenses alone of the new line.
as compared with the old one, will be
fully 10000 a month, or $4,000 a year,
a good interest on the cost of construct
ing the new branch.
The new route also lies through a
much more productive region than the
old. and the company viii derive in
creased revenue from local traffic.

This CITY TO Be Eastern Terminus of the Great Pa

New Line Starts at Wells Neyada-EnormOuS Saving In
ExpenseS-Will Open Deep Creek Mines.

In the second place, the new branch
will run close to the great Deep Creek
mineral district in the southwestern
part of Tooele county. The rich depos-
its of gold. silver and lead there have
only been waiting for years for a rail-
road to give them an outlet to the
world; and while this new line does not
tap this district direct, it runs so close
to it that it viii be highly profitable for
some company to run a spur into the
heart of the mining districts.
Good Connections.
In the third place the Southern Pa
cific will have as good eastern connec-
tions in Salt Lake as it now has in Og-
den-the Union Pacific-Oregon Short
Line system and the Rio Grande West
ern. This is assuming that none of
the eastern roads viii build to Salt
Lake, while all present indications
point to the fact that most of the great
transcontinental systems are headed
this way now, among them the Burling-
