In Lexington, KY, the grand Jury
severely blamed the mayor for the
condition of the streets. The mayor
wrote a card to the papers asking for
"fair and generous consideration, to
which the Leader replies: Standing
kuee-deep in mud, however, the pub
lilo is in no frame OF mind to deal out
generous consideration to any alarm
ing extent. Rescue us from the slough
Of filth IN which we have been so
gently deposited; help us to reclaim
our stocss Of goods, furniture and
clothing from the dust, and we will
then pull the lever and turn on enou III
generous consideration to fill the life
of even the most exscting mayor with
balm. The crying shame OF
Lexington's streets grows deeper and
deeper, and unless the council takes
some immediate steps then we are I'M
done indeed" The same applies in q
measure to the conditions in Psducah.
The street question is hardly a ques-
tion at all. There is little room for
argument When the taxpayers are
gouged year after year to keep up the
streets, the streets ought to be kept up.
