A visit to the rooms of the town
site commissioners, reveals the fact
that these gentlemen have not ran
up against a pinto, in the survey
ing, plating and laying out the
town.
The map of the city now near
ing completion is at first sight a
a yeritable Chinese puzzle, and the
amount of work necessary to bring
the plat of the city to the stage it
now occupies has been no child's
play and certainly reflects most
creditably on the skill of Mr.. Thay-
er, the surveying engineer and Mr..
Rawles. the craftsman for the COM
mission.
Col. johnson is of the opinion
that the original map of the city
will be completed between the 1st
and 18th of January. Copies on
linen ri.l thereafter be traced and
forwa d IA Washington.
IN the matter of Strengthening
some OF the streets and creating
new ores both Col. johnson and
Mr.. Br-ney have given this most
careful personal attention and
those gentlemen are working in
unison for tine greatest good, with
the least harm, to our people. Fol-
instance. suppose they had agreed
to continue Broadway ON west
from its present terminus. what
would be the result? Instead, how.
ever, this street will defect TO the
northwest from its present ter
minus into a street 40 feet wide
and thus open up some valuable
building lots on either side of it.
! The north part Of the town is il
good shape and no one will b
damaged to a great extent by tn
opening of either streets or al
leys.
There is some arduous work
however, in Coontown, as no sys
tenn of regularity has been observe
in the erection of houses owe
there.
. A street will also be opene
through the cotton yard on the eas
side running north by the side @
the Love building continuing O.
north through other blocks on tn
east side of the railroad.
> There is still some surveying t
a be done in the timbered portion
g the incorporation on the east side
= and also on the south side.
), The commission have the wor
s we'll in hand and have the esteer
d of our people for the courteou
manner in which they have consit
cred every voice which has gon
before them.
