Street Commissioner Gem reports
that the advance of rates for labor
and teams makes it cost the city
$40. 80 per week more than formerly
to clean the streets and alleys The
keeping of the alleys in decent shape
is harder than usual, too. on account
OF everything freezing up so it has
to be loosened with picks. Two men
with picks are sent through the al
leys about two squares ahead OF the
teams and break the stuff up that Is
to be removed, and the haulers fol-
low on and remove it. The snow is
adding to the work also, as places
where there would be possibility OF
stopping up the sewers, in case OF
thaw or sudden rain, require much
attention to keep them in shape to
avoid damage.
