of the street at this time. Mr.. Lund
argued that Council possessed no
power to arbitrarily abandon a street
and make it binding upon future
councils. Mr.. Sears held that once
abandoned it WIS abandoned for "all
eternity" DIR. Peabody obse rived
that the streets of the city we're only
laid out to r. r. Ave. consequently
there was nothing to abandon and
he deprecated strongly the idea of
entering into a law suit with the
company. In this latter view he
was supported by the majority of
the speakers. Judge Cowan stated
he had signed the petition under a
misrepresentation, confessed his ignor-
ance, and said that when shown the
letters referred to ne had consulted
Webster's Dictionary as to the
meaning of abandon" and found it
to be " to relinquish, to give up"
and he was opposed to giving up any
thing. L. G. Ochsenreiter took the
very sensible view that to obtain
anything from the company it would
FIRST be necessary for the conflicting
''streeters"", to get together, find
out what was wanted and make a
demand for it which he felt would
be granted, if in reason. Emil
Meyer thought the residents of the
streets benefited should pay the
fiddler If any action at law was taken
Agt Bradley had nothing to offer
when called upon. AS Aid Wickre
was not present it was agreed to add
journ to next Monday night when
all citizens interested are invited TO
be present and air their views, paid
attorneys barred. In the mean time
the company will be- written to for
an explanation of what is inca nj in
their letter by abandon,
