TREES AND SIDEWALKS.

ihE6S AMI
The distinctive feature of the city
of Roswell is her shade trees. and we
are not surprised at the protest OF the
people over the proposition to cut
down all trees that come within the
limits of the permanent cement side
walks that have been ordered in. 1t
is but fair to the city council to state
that it was necessary to establish a
line for sidewalks. and we believe
that the lines as established by Ordi-
nance No. 2O8 interfere less with the
trees now growing than any other
that could have been adopted. 1t is
also a fact that trees in cement walks
will in a few years at most break the
walks. We favor leaving the trees
even if it entails a cost to repair the
walks periodically. We suggest. how
ever. to those OF our citizens who
contemplate the planting of shade
trees either on their premises or on
the streets in front of them, that they
set them out SO as to avoid a conflict
with the sidewalks. By ordinance the
outside or street line of sidewalks is
as follows: On sixty foot streets six
feet from the lot Line; on eighty and
one hundred foot streets. eight feet
from the lot line. By observing these
lines all possible conflict in the flu
ture can be avoided. Every property
wner should know to within the
width of a tack head of where his
lot line is. and it will be no trouble
to keep his trees out of the side
walks.

Class Distinction.

In one of the addresses given at the
Tabernacle in this city few week,

really exists here to any great extent
may be questioned, Of, course, but if IL
does not exist at least i'm a small way
then is Logan most remarkable city,
indeed. However, it seems that in
this city there is less excuse for "class
distinction"than in many other places.

That Bond Issue.

On March 22nd, will be held the
election to decide whether the cit,
shall be bonded for $l3, ZOO needed tc
complete the light plant. That any
property holder should vote against
that issue seems preposterous, but ii
has been stated that there is at least a
slight opposition to this second issue
OF bonds. Such opposition. if II really
exists, can hardly be founded on good
grounds, and the disposition back of
1t must be that of the man who cut of
his nose to spite his face. $4,000 of
the peoples money has already been
expended and in order that that S74,-
600 shall be of any service, IL is neces-
sary to expend $4,000 more, and the
council has deemed it advisable to is
sue bonds for that amount-in fact it
is not known where the money can be
secured conveniently in case the cleo
ton should not result favorably. A
failure to secure the $4,000 at this
time means that the plant is crippled.
the final completion and operation de-
layed, and the city the loser, If not of
the entire $74, 900, at least of revenue
that will begin at the time the plant
begins operation. The bond issue of
$4,000 must be met, though the plant
is never completed, and IL is certainly
the height of stupidity for anyone to
put even straw in the way of that
$4,000 paying for itself
Although the statement is some
times made tnat the plant we have is
really "third-class" the belief of most
who have seen the pipeline. building,
machinery, and viewed the wiring
system is that the plant is well worth
the money, the statement being made
that it can be sold for 800, 900 the day
il Is put into operation. We cannot
vouch for the latter statement, but
the fume aud pipeline of the city
plant is unqucstiOnsbly superior in
every respect to that possessed by the
Hercules people; the pole system is
the admiration of all, and all portions
OF the plant are said to be as high |

A Canadian paper has the following

A Canadian paper has the following
to say of United States money in Can
ada: ''there Is movement under
way to shut United States currency
from Canada. A widespread senti-
ment has existed for long time that
something should be done to give our
own Canadian coins a preference in
Canada and if the present agitation
results in anything towards the ac-
complishment Of this much desired
result there will be general satisfaction.
Canada has no more need to use for
eign coinage in carrying on its bust
ness than the majority of us have to
use wooden legs, and the practice
should be put under some sort OF a
handicap forthwith. II is not long
since prominent Eastern manufact-
urer drew attention to the exceeding
prevalence of this practice in the
West, and he emphasized his objec-
tions to it while on a visit here by
absolutely refusing to accept United
States coins in change at any discount.
When the public takes the matter up
in this practical way the end of the
United States coins day of grace in
Canada will have come. On both
patriotic and practical grounds this
course should be adopted without
delay" If there is in Canada the
same aversion to United States money
that there is to Canadian money in
this country, then the Canadians
ought to have no difficulty in barring
our coins. Every time man in this
country permits another to pass a
Canadian quarter or dime on him, he
has disposition to kick himself for "A
week, and if the Canadians will keep
their money at home and ours out it
will be a pleasure that is not one
sided.
