rHAr NINTH STREET MATTER.
The City Engineer Has Something Of
Moment to say.

To the Editors.
East Las Vegas, N. NJ, March Sd.
To the property owners on Ninth
street 1t ought to be interesting to
know that an effort is being made to
place the old acequia in a less CON
.spicuous place, by placing it under the
walk on the west side Of Ninth street
The labor required to do this will
not be as much as one might believe
on first view. The excavations re-
quired average less than one foot of
depth, ,Two-and-one half feet in width
are sufficient One la5orer can ex-
cavate hundred lineal feet in one
day for $15O. The. dirt should be
piled on. the sides of the ditch, In the
manner Of building lvees and be we'll
ccmpacted On this, and over the ace
quia a six-foot walk could be laid. The
old acequia should be re-filled and the
excess of dirt leveled off. The ex-
pense would be Insignificant. The
city council will take care of the street
crossings and thereby aid the enter
prise. A concert of action will insure
success, and in ten days hence it
ought to be completed Though I
have no investment on that street, yet
I will aid the enterprise by setting the
line and grade stakes and doing the
necessary engineering work for the
pleasure to be derived from having
that horrible old ditch removed from
sight. D. ]. ABER,
City Engineer.
