The action of tho City Council in again
extending the time, and falling to enforce
the ordinance requiring the sewer connec-
lions to be made, has occasioned some
comment and criticism. The sewers were
placed year or more ago by the city,
and from that time until the present the
time for requiring connections to be made
with the sewers has been repeatedly eX-
tended However, it is now in better
shape than at any time, and in all proba-
bility at the next meeting of the CouncD
an, ordinance will be adopted enforcing the
connections.
