We hope that the authorities will
look after the sanitary interests Of
our ward In time, as there Is urgent
need Of attention to that matter at
once. We people In our ward are Ia
favor OF all needed improvements.
We think that the franchise business
Is Of very great Importance to the
town and people aud ought to be well
considered. We understand that
some Of the franchises will not expire
for seven years. Why The haste to
get the thing renewed until the mat
ter can be fairly discussed?
