LODGES COMPLAINT.
mr.. "A. o. Bliss Says Noise of Garbage
Wagon is IHeathenish

Alonzo o. Bliss has written to the District
commissioners complaining of the most
heathenish" and Internal noises made by
the garbage wagons in passing the Driscoll
apartment house at LIST and streets.
Il wish to call to your attention again
says the writer. the great ANNOYANCE
caused to me and the many people living
IN my property-the Drscoll-by the gar
page carts which pass to and fro on 1st
street constantly. beginning at o'clock
am These garbage carts. as you know. are
constructed of metal and have hinged metal
tops which go to make the most heathenish
noise imaginable when these carts pass
over the rough stone block pavement on LIST
street. The noise Is simply deafening, and
renders sleeping an impossibility after 6
o'clock
1T Is indeed an injustice to submit the
property owners to such an annoyance, and
when 1t lays an embargo on ones business
1t becomes more vital. We have often sug-
gested remedy. in the laying of an as
phalt pavement. which would not alone
benefit US. but the census bureau and the
Business High School. If this remedy can
not be considered favorably we ask that
you will take some action which will either
prevent the carts from coming up list street
or Will stop their internal noise"
