STATE STREET IMPROVEMENTS.
A Petition Regarding the Work Now
Undertaken,

Undertaken.
The following weighty petition to his
honor, the mayor, and the committee
on highways, has been placed before
that honorable body, in the hope that
the work undertaken of completing and
matchmaking State street may he
done in the same thorough and efficient
manner as the work between the State
House and Court house has been done.
The petitioners desire the carrying out
of the same plan as has hitherto been
adopted by the city in making such
permanent and desirable improve
ments. The petition is as follows:
To His Honor, the Mayor, and Con:-
mittee on Highway for the City of Au-
gusta:
We, the undersigned citizens and tax
payers in the said city of Augusta, do
most respectfully request that you, in
extending, repairing, and rebuilding
State street from Court street to
Bridge street, will conform with that
portion of State street south of Court
street, that the sidewalk be lowered
and the same finished with curbing
with paved cutters, and the street be
properly graded and macadamized to
conform with the rest of State street
This being the desire of those who are
residents at that particular point, ana
we, as citizens and tax payers, think
this should be accorded to them VINO
take just pride in the way of perma-
nent improvements, as it is a very
prominent ard conspicuous street, 1t Is
the approach to two or three or the
churches, the LithgoW library ana
Court house and one of the large
schools of the city faces on this street;
it is also the main thoroughfare from
the north part of Augusta through the
residential part of the city to the state
House. and we trust that His Honor
and the Committee will give this due
and proper consideration and conform
with the established place, as it re-
lates to State street.
