vited the attention Of the District Commits
sioners to the question of grading Fort

explained. representative portion of the
owners of the abutting property are very
desrous. he assured the Commissioners,
that the improvement be made, so that the
lots facing the street may be utilized He
stated that the street is quite thorough
fare, being a short cut to the monastery.
He referred to the fact that the Rrookland
Citizens Association desires the work COM
pleted, and asked that, if 1t be impossible
to do it now, it be taken up when the ap-
preparations for the coming fiscal year be-
come available. Considerable dirt has been
removed by the citizens he said. and he
expressed the belief that the work could
be now done without great expense TO the
District
The matter was referred to the engineer
department, from which has come recon-
mendation that the communication be
placed in the improvement file suburban
section, for consideration at the time of the
preparation of the estimates for the fiscal
year of 1903. The work described that de-
partment states, is of such na ture and ex-
tent that 1t can be undertaken under the
operation only of a special appropriation.
No estimate has been prepared in the "a GO
because, the department states the ma
terial is being constantly removed from the
street as an incident to public work also
under permits issued to private parties
with results which will change conditions
IN sucn a manner as to seriously affect the

variety but there are other times when

Among the reforms inaugurated by
Cleveland's executive is a general tear

the city fire limits. No one will dispute
the statement that wooden buildings

general rule and the application Of that
rule to specific cases is a different mat

Mayor johnson has not only issued
orders that no more wooden buildings
may be put up in Cleveland but he has
given the fire department of that city
orders to go out and tear down all such
buildings found in the fire limits. No
tice has been served on hundreds of
property owners that if they do not re-
move their buildings within twenty
four hours the fire department will
commence the work of destruction.
In this case reform has been trans
formed into tyranny. 1t is reasonable
